I just tried blocking elements one by one this way, and after 3-4 containers it’s done, but there is no way to scroll the page. It’s not that different from using devtools inspector, but when hacking sites that way, I usually can get scroll working. Either way, it’s too much effort to read an article you’re not even sure is really that valuable.

I have uBlock origin, it blocked 5 resources on load but it didn’t prevent the “With our Pur subscription you can use heise.de without tracking, external banner and video advertising for €4.95 / month” popup.
What’s wrong with this website. I don’t see the button “reject”. I’m not gonna accept whatever that is just to read this.

science@lemmy.world•How sex can help save species from extinctionEnglish
41·1 month agoWhen females can choose between competing males, or when males compete intensely for matings, those with poorer genetic health are less likely to pass on their genes.
Allowing females multiple males to mate with could help populations to naturally weed out damaging genetic variants and improve their long-term chances of survival.
Can’t wait for those amazing findings to be absorbed into manosphere and inceldom.

Linux@programming.dev•Noctalia 5 Wayland Desktop Shell Is Now Officially Stable
1·1 month agoThanks! Live photo of it ain’t worth sharing at the moment: just a broken external screen, extra macbook on the side, messy wires and some random trash on the table. However, it might be interesting to see how it looks in normal tiling scenarios (I use Krohnkite), and I have a screenshot from few days ago: https://ibb.co/yFgB9kK2 So because those extra KDE panels are “dodge windows”, they are usually hidden in non-float layouts and don’t take all that space. To see them, instead of hovering to the edge of the screen I usually just switch to empty workspace where they are all visible, and launch something from those panels there, for example a game.

20·1 month agoProgressive rendering
This is really interesting. Now I wonder: would it be possible to use the same image for thumbnail and full view and instead control its display by maximum allowed transfer percentage? For example, by default, for thumbnails, all images on page are served only up to 15% of their full size, and when you click on them, the same image resumes downloading to 100% size. I mean, it’s definitely possible to implement this, but it would be nice to see this widely supported without getting too hacky.

Linux@programming.dev•Noctalia 5 Wayland Desktop Shell Is Now Officially Stable
16·1 month agoI use it together with plasmashell, not as replacement. I rebound “win+space” to trigger Noctalia instead. I use Noctalia as top panel and I use 5 extra KDE panels stylized with panel-colorizer in “dodge windows” mode. To use Noctalia I simply added “noctalia” into normal KDE autostart apps. Noctalia also automatically recognizes KDE/Plasma virtual desktops as workspaces.

Linux@programming.dev•Good News! CERN is Migrating Over 2,200 Control Systems to Debian 13
5·1 month agowhat would the benefits of k8s be?
Compared to what? Manually running software on machines? Automatic distribution of work, automatic networking, linking/transfer of resources, etc. I think their scenarios are often oneshot tasks that need to run somewhere and produce results that get used in other tasks or aggregated somewhere, etc.

Linux@programming.dev•Good News! CERN is Migrating Over 2,200 Control Systems to Debian 13
4·1 month agoHow much RAM do you think they have? I think a top-notch scientific machine from literally 20 years ago might have like 4GB RAM, maybe a bit more. I’m not sure about non-control-plane kubelet runtime overhead, I see online sources showing numbers as little as 30MB, and as big as 1GB. But even with 1GB you will still have 3GB for work.

science@lemmy.world•200,000 human neurons are learning to play 'Doom'English
1·2 months agoVideo sure looks like this, but they have the tech, they describe it like something that can actually be used to divide screen into NxM areas and send representation of each area to neurons for example. And even that would be extremely naive approach ofc. But that’s beside the point. To me the most concerning thing here is that they already have this setup and it sounds like they even provide API to use it for external projects.

Technology@lemmy.world•People prefer stories written by AI – especially when told they’re written by a humanEnglish
2·2 months agoI enjoyed https://asimov.fandom.com/wiki/Cal as a kid (beware of summary here covering the whole story to the end)
For previous vaccines for which we have data, the average period between microbe isolation and vaccine development was 48 years, with a record of about four years. The average time between vaccine development and 40 percent coverage was 42 years, with a record of 14 years for rotavirus. For COVID-19, the period between microbe isolation and vaccine development was less than a year, and between vaccine development and 40 percent coverage just 11 months.
So my personal standard “lets wait 2 decades” isn’t even that big, because average is 4 decades.
What corner was cut for the Covid-19 vaccine?
I don’t know that in detail and I didn’t research it. In my country this virus wasn’t such an overwhelming question of life and death as it was in US, apparently. There was no dilemma of “vax risk vs covid death”, it was a bit scary in the news at first, but almost invisible flu that not many really reported at all in media and I don’t personally know anyone who was even sure they had it or died from it. From this thread I get it that it was some kind of plague in US where literally everybody were dying left and right from this virus. In this context your collective defense of vaccine and peer pressure on ever questioning it makes some sense. In my case, it wasn’t even important enough to research vaccine situation, it’s just more reasonable to question the vaccine in absence of longer timeframes of data, because the virus itself isn’t even scary enough. I expect scary enough virus to be observable empirically and socially, not only in numbers given from above.

I’ve been using Wayland with iGPU+dGPU on many distros for years. The only problem is that it sometimes takes a bit of effort to let applications know which GPU you want them to use, and this problem has nothing to do with Wayland and would be the same with X11 or even Windows.
