I have used gkrellm since 1998 when my preferred wm was blackbox and playing MP3s in xmms was cool. Still run it today on Cinnamon. RIP Bill and thanks for the OSS contribution of a lifetime!

This works amazingly well for regulated software markets such as medical devices that need a lot of review/approval and traceability. Markdown is much more AI and script-friendly yet still layman readable. The workflow is significantly faster than industry standard tools like Windchill which are like git with a 1985 GUI in front of it.

Could they 3D print in such a way as to make pre-fabricated joint implants a thing of the past?

Some interesting draft names there.. 'draft-moriarty-tls-oldversions-diediedie'

Authors: Kathleen Moriarty, Stephen Farrell

It seems it's a last name of an author and not just the arch nemesis of Sherlock Holmes. ;)

End of an era. I remember using them consistently in the mid- to late-90’s. Sad to see them go but change is the only constant in life. Goodbye old friend!

The best tech we currently have is bio-engineered algae. It won't make a dent unless we can farm lakes full of the stuff.

That's scary.

The article seems to suggest that turning to carbon capture is our best option currently. If that is the case then what is the best carbon capture technology we have right now and could it even make a dent?

Lovely article, as an orthopaedic surgeon I can tell you that most of us know this. Treating chronic pain with surgery is generally a bad idea, I spend a large share of my time explaining this. Some patients are grateful for this, but I think that many go and try to find "a real doctor".

An interesting development is that there is generally an increased acceptance for psychiatric diagnoses. More are accepting that just as the pancreas may stop delivering insulin, the brain may fail to uphold the proper seretonin levels. Unfortunately it is not as simple as that, fixing seretonin or any other substance is like pouring oil over an engine and hope that it reaches the target. Still, I'm sure that we will see a huge change as true targeted treatments are no longer just sci-fi. Getting people to the right specialist is until then a good start.

Why do I get the feeling this is repeating TCP features at the Message level? There must a protocol that can hide this exactly once need away. TCP doesn't create downloads, generally, that are bad and fail their checksum test, hence packets that make up the file are not duplicated.
