No, they plunder antiquitarian book shops around the globe. There exist very few copies of those books around and they sure aren’t digitized anywhere.

To be fair, school lunches aren’t free in Germany.

Technically they could be considered free if you factor in monthly child benefits (currently at 259€ per child) or parents further qualify for social assistance.

That liquid is called public swimming pool water you accidentally swallow.

Wikipedia isn’t important because of its data. Rather because of the fact it is continuously updated, extended, and fixed at a gigantic scale.

If Wikipedia ever dies, its information will lose relevance by the day. After a decade or two without a similar-scale replacement, will anyone even care?

I don’t know enough about Windows app development to answer this. Maybe it replaces the old .exe and the now replaced .exe is just continuing to run from RAM? Maybe there is some restarter.exe program in the same folder that does all the work. In any case, this depends far too much on the Windows update process and how to launch applications.

I just know when I used Windows applications in the past, they were able to restart themselves after updating somehow.

I meant the old .exe would check the signatures before initializing the official Windows way to update. Effectively have this run whenever you start the application:

main() {
    if (update_available()) {
        exe_path = download_update()
        if (signature(exe_path) == SIGNATURE) {
            install_update(exe_path)
            restart()
        } else {
            put_up_a_warning_or_something()
            delete(exe_path)
        }
    }
# Rest of the application
# ...
}

The only thing I have no idea how to implement would be the install_update(path) function. But surely this is one way to install updates without signatures recognized by Microsoft, right?

And if for some reason you aren’t allowed to sign the .exe because this breaks something, then place an unsigned .exe in a signed zip folder.

Yes, but from what I understand this refers to the automatic update functionality and not Microsoft’s own .exe signature verification thing.

Couldn’t you do it like this:

• Put hardcoded key into N++
• If a new release is available: Download, then verify signature
• If the signatures match, do whatever Windows requires to install an update

That should work, shouldn’t it?

It’s astounding this wasn’t done years sooner to be honest. I mean, signing software with keys is not something invented recently. Not doing so is akin to storing passwords in plain text.

Bing/DDG has also blocked the emulation wiki (https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/) for some reason. I noticed when I forgot the domain and tried looking for the site.

For the record, Google returns it as the top result.

No, I’d say race is primarily US-American concept.

Language/nationality are in Europe the most relevant factors. Racism simply due to skin color does happen too but it occurs less often than other forms of discrimination (because there are simply significantly fewer people of a different “race”. The US-American view would just see white people discriminating against white people.)

I mean, a Black and a White US-American are culturally far more similar than an English and a Polish guy but in looks far more different. So US-Americans discriminate primarily by looks (racism) while the English discriminate primarily by culture (xenophobia). That’s why British Indians (considered to belong to a Brown race in the US) can be the leaders of the Tories with barely any outcry while in the US Obama caused Republicans to collapse into a hatred singularity called “Trump”.

Yeah, it’s the same unit just offset by a factor of ten:
% = 10 * ‰

Like floquant said, many European countries use per mille (which is denoted by ‰). It’s easy to convert those two but you first have to realize the need for conversion if you don’t read carefully (since the symbols % and ‰ look similar at first glance).

If this were actually done to children/teens surely their brains would not form any associations between being restrained and horny, right?

Terrible, a whopping 10¢ per bag.

The rest of the world rarely ever purchases bags by the way. You take the one’s you own with you to save money and resources.

For those confused: Americans use percentage for blood alcohol concentration.

That’s 0.91‰ and 0.8‰ respectively.

Doesn’t mean much. Police violence cases are regularly ignored by prosecutors and judges due to lack of public interest/insufficient evidence you didn’t deserve to be battered.

If you drive while tired and kill someone as a result that’s not an accident. You intentionally kept driving instead of pulling over and taking a nap.

There is effectively no difference in drunk driving and driving while extremely tired. Both impair your driving ability equally.

Long-distance trains aren’t covered by the ticket, only regional trains.

For example, the trip Munich -> Berlin would take around 10-11 hours with 5-6 different trains you need to catch. If you paid for a long-distance train it would be 4.5 hours with no changes.

Holy AI slop this article sucks. Nothing screams ChatGPT more than a shitton bullet points in the form:
