I don’t know what to add, I haven’t used Matrix so I’m unfamiliar with it and might be misreading it. But it seems to have an aura of “look how cool and hip this is”. Irc is old and comfortable even though it has a bunch of annoying limitations.

I’m on ml and it seems pretty general. It has a bit more fringe contingent than world, but everything else is there too.
Irc works fine, people I know are there, and matrix has always seemed too attention -seeky for my tastes.
Irc still. No matrix so far.
How about elephant jokes? There are so many of those.
Two angry men on separate occasions have made comments to me about masking and how I don’t need to do it. I just stare right through them and ignore,
I just say thanks, I prefer wearing it and I’m more comfortable with it on. That generally works.
but why are they so angry?
Might go back to the conflicting and stupid instructions we got when the pandemic started. The public health establishment lost all its credibility and continues to mess up.
It’s something of a “14 competing standards” situation, but uv seems to be the nerd favourite these days.
NZ reversed that ban 1 year after announcing it and decades before it would have gone into effect.
Well, a good scandal might have come along to take out a few of the candidates, though that didn’t happen afaik. Other than that, I mean, what is the hurry? I don’t follow politics all that closely anyway, but there are a few local organizations that I like, so I figure on mostly going by their endorsements. It usually takes me about an hour to fill in the ballot.
I’ll try to fill mine in today. It wouldn’t have been any easier to do it earlier, and it’s preferable to do it on election day or close to it, so you have all the information available. The main contested elections in my district are local ones, and stuff is always happening.
This is about installing on a Nexus 5 which is from 2013. Sounds painful.
NK already has missile tech, just not clear whether it has real intercontinental range. The US and Russia did that in the 1950s though.
nuke delivery stuff
That’s what space tech means, I thought.
Does gnu bc have outstanding bug reports? If not, it doesn’t need updates. Its spec was frozen 30 years ago, more or less. Rather than unmaintained, I’d call it maintenance-free. BIFL software as it were. Sounds great to me.
Seems like a whine, bc is an interactive tool and it’s unusual to use it for anything where its response isn’t instant.
GNU bc is one of the oldest GNU tools and it uses an MP library that RMS banged out in an afternoon or two, I think. It could probably be adapted to use GMP which is very high performance.
Preferring GPL to other licenses seems fine with me, unless I want to work for Amazon without getting paid.
I use autotools and don’t remember having such issues.

They are generally locked down to specific carriers too.
A 20 year cell phone isn’t happening though. The networks change out too often. I still have perfectly solid 1g, 2g, and 3g phones that are useless because the networks they used are gone. 4g still works but for how long? 5g will be around for a while, but 20 years? Dubious.
If there are 1000s of people there for a parade, why not just have an impromptu one? Those are the best anyway.
You have to write out a lot of exercises and there is no getting around it. You can’t learn the violin by watching videos or reading a book. You have to practice. It’s the same with math. But as people said, Khan Academy lectures are very good in steering you through a topic.
Besides algebra, I think it is important to know a bit about probability and a bit about logic. Don’t worry about stuff like covariance matrices, but understand what conditional probability is (be able to explain the “prosecutor’s fallacy”) and write out some of those annoying exercises about urns full of colored balls. Also, show how to write e.g. “you can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time” in predicate logic notation, and see how the parts of the sentence involve switching the order of quantifiers.
