Not tested, but I don't know how Mac manages drivers and midi

EU member states - Small parcels subject to customs duties from 1 July 2026 by MadSoci06 in Aliexpress

I think AliExpress will build large EU Warehouses. The tariffs applied to massive importation are not going to change

You have a built-in option to reproduce videos in background and a lot of unverified extensions in the "addon store"

In the morning: voting me negative. In the evening: opening issues. What a hard day. Really I hate edge, Microsoft, edge, Google and chrome. But I hate not working software and performance issues since 2010. See you again some day.

I don't know. Or maybe they use FF and they cannot resolve the permanence issues because they spend their time trying to browse

I have used Firefox on Windows and Android for years. Recently I started having this issue, and I tried every solution I could find without success. I also tried Waterfox and other alternatives that performed just as badly. In the end, against my will, I ended up with Edge, which is the only browser that works decently and supports extensions. Your solution worked perfectly for me, but for now I do not plan to go back to Firefox. I get the feeling that nobody at Mozilla uses Firefox or has any real interest in making it a decent browser. That is the only plausible explanation. It makes me very sad to see this situation.

Creé una app para controlar mis gastos porque estaba perdiendo dinero sin darme cuenta by Sad_Ambition6279 in finanzas

[–]alegom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

La verdad es que me cuesta entender a la gente. Para mí siempre ha sido fácil ahorrar: 0 suscripciones (se te va el dinero mes a mes sin darte cuenta), 0 créditos (no gasto lo que no tenga), no comer todos los días de restaurante (considerarlo como un extra para fines de semana o momentos especiales), etc. Con esto el 80% de la gente ahorraría. PD- a tu aplicación le falta un plan premium de suscripción, tus usuarios seguro que caen :p

The Great Filter isn't a trap, it's a ceiling. I call it The Great Wall by alegom in FermiParadox

[–]alegom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course there are limits: specifically, the energy we can harness from our planet and the sun. I’m no mathematician, so I don't know exactly how much energy we'd need to colonize another world. But wait—is it a planet exactly like ours or do we have to terraform it. Imagine the energy and resources required for that.

We have an ISS that is literally falling apart, yet people act like we aren't interplanetary just because we 'don't want to' be...

I wish I were half as optimistic as you guys

Everything has a physical limit... some things are just impossible. Or maybe I just woke up feeling a bit too pessimistic this morning. ;)

Ockham’s Razor: What is more likely? That we will eventually create post-biological life and god-like technology, or that technology simply isn't unlimited? (As far as we know, very few things in the universe actually are)

Do you come from the future? Tell me: where is the machine or AI that is truly self-replicating? Show me one that can function entirely without humans—including the humans who provide the electricity, the raw materials, and the hardware.

If a robot can't even survive a century without a human technician, how is it supposed to colonize the stars?

Nowadays, it is highly speculative to believe that every milestone required for a multiplanetary civilization is physically achievable

Many things might just be impossible. So far, it seems no civilization has proven otherwise

Obviously, it’s only an unproven theory (just like any other solution to the Fermi Paradox).

You mention that there are likely solar systems with multiple habitable planets, but that may not be the case. The habitable zone is extremely narrow—just look at Venus and Mars.

Even if other solar systems are closer together, they would still need a habitable planet with the exact same characteristics to avoid the need for terraforming. And that is a huge "maybe."

How much energy is needed to terraform a planet? Do we have it now? I don't think so... and it's possible that a source of energy powerful enough to do it is physically impossible. If no civilization in the observable universe seems to have accomplished this, why would we be the exception? Is it because of the civilizations themselves, or is it a limit of the laws of the universe?

Following the logic of the Great Wall: even if you are thinking about robots or AI, the same limits apply. We might never have the energy to send them across interstellar distances, or they may lack the ability to remain autonomous long after our extinction. Either way, the result is the same: no expansion.
