   iOS does this on-device, you can access the SQLite database containing the metadata using libimobiledevice's ifuse(1).

   Thanks for clarifying! The constitution is pretty far from fiduciary duty legally, so I apologize for not interpreting it more charitably.

   (In general the maximize profit meme does need to die tho)

   NFTs let you own autographs of digital assets.

   Which is cool. If it weren't for the energy use.

   >I don't think Facebook is constitutionally able to give up ad revenue gains

   This "fiduciary duty" meme really needs to die.

   Seriously the idea of fiduciary duty [to maximixe profit] is dystopian, corporations don't fuck us over because they have to they do it because they can.

   Edit: clarify

   Colloquially in the north "native" is ubiquitous.

    Critics of NFTs incessantly conflate them with copyright and DRM, but it's a strawman argument.

    Buyers are aware that it doesn't grant them any actual rights beyond "I can transfer this NFT".

    I'm against NFTs for their environmental impact, I'm fine with their vanity.

    I worded it poorly (and it wasn't really anything worth saying in the context of COVID), but:

    A population with 5% naturally-induced/80% vaccine-induced immunity might see more spread of a new variant than a population with 25%/60%, however the total outcomes would still be better in the first population; so "less protected" was definitely the wrong thing to say.

    Naturally-induced immunity for COVID is stronger because it targets more than just the spike protein, and it presumably[0] grants better mucosal immunity than our current vaccines induce, but of course the risk/cost of natural infection is very high.

    I guess there might be a point where strictly vaccinated populations are less protected than populations with more natural antibodies.

    Where I live is >80% double dosed, however there are far less than 5% that have been naturally infected.

    There's a 52-home community in Alberta that provides ~all of their winter heating by storing heat in the ground throughout the summer:

    https://www.dlsc.ca/borehole.htm

    It gets up to nearly 80C, but took a few years of operation to get there.

    The website covers it really well and I'd recommend checking it out.

    Any rust project like this inevitably gets sardonic replies about rewrite-in-rust fanaticism.

    I agree they shouldn't have to justify themselves, but it is handy to preempt that.

    I learned in a documentary that pople who play some video games can immediately recognize 5-7. They tested with a handful of grapes.

    I can reliably recognize up to 6 in most cases.

    I've spliced chunks together using sh, dd, and xxd before to resurrect my gf-at-the-time's wolf.

    I've also been meaning to play psuedo-multiplayer with my friends by us each claiming a region in a seed. Each region being 32x32 chunks and saved to a separate file (.mca), you can just drop their latest region into your world folder to see what they've been up to, or play on LAN and send it back after.

    Being able to easily calculate e.g. $/100g to a rough degree without reaching for your pocket is super handy.

    I think we could gain from emphasizing math with orders of magnitude, and knowing 1/n's would be super handy too.
