We are told the probabilities directly. Expected deaths as number of trials approaches infinity when switching the lever is 0*¾+5*¼ which equals 1.25. Better odds than gamblers face by a long shot but not good.

Yep. That totally makes sense from a time when everyone wore a dozen layers.

Flying cars are a bad idea because it'd cost hundreds of times as much for the fuel, and be ridiculously dangerous to drive. Drivers have a problem with the ~2 dimensions already. They are infeasible for at least another century.

They'd also need specialized takeoff and landing areas due to the amount of force it'd need to exert on the ground.

The message literally crosses the path of the ship. It can observe it there. Causality is not violated.

High disk read compared to seeding speed (lemmy.today)

Hi, I'm having a problem with my qBittorrent setup that I can't quite debug or find information on.

I'm seeding from a hard drive and I get something like 5-15 MBps of seeding capacity depending on the day. However I noticed upon inspecting a system monitor (I am running Debian 13) the total disk IO read was about 4x the seeding speed.

I've tweaked the advanced settings all I can to no avail. I am using the version of QBit from Devian 13 main. It's 5.Something.

Would anyone have insight on this problem? I'll take anything at this point. The application is using about 250MB of RAM.

Is there any way to keep more than one app open at a time? (lemmy.today)

submitted 8 months ago by LodeMike@lemmy.today to c/android@lemmy.world

Whenever I go to my homescreen or otherwise load another app the previous one closes. If I'm browsing Lemmy and I open a page linked on a post to read it, my app will have reset itself when I close the tab and I either have to give up or root around for the post.

This OS is borderline unusable in this state. It even evicts my homescreen app so there's a 5-10 second lag when tapping the circle button.

Any tips? I have 8GB of RAM, which should be more than enough for a dozen apps.

Any way to prevent focus stealing on GNOME 43? (lemmy.today)

Please don't tell me to set any dconf settings. I've already tried all of them and they do jack shit.

I'm on Debian in 12, which has GNOME 43. I never want Windows to steal focus for any reason. Is there an extension or something that can do this?
