@dcz The amount of language in programming languages is really low. Ability to share code worldwide is far more important than having to learn 10-or-so english words you are using in programming language.

@dcz Pocitacovy svet se rozhodl, ze bude pouzivat anglictinu jako spolecny jazyk. (Stejne jako letecky a namorni svet). A to je dobra vec -- protoze diky tomu si muzem bez problemu povidat, aniz bychom se museli ucit spoustu cizich jazyku.

@dcz No. Programming languages are US-ASCII because they are in English, and that in turn means we can all collaborate on projects easily. We do actually have programming language based on czech, it is called "Karel"... but it would not really be suitable for global collaboration.

Also iirc it is based on czech language, but it still uses US-ASCII.

@dcz Well, culturally optimal keyboard would be useless, as you could not write programs on it. Many people use en-US here... "Capek" is understood even without special characters.

@ljs @ptesarik @thomy2000 I agree that western involvement in Ukraine would be good.

OTOH I don't worry that much about Russia long-term. Their economy is still weak, and by switching to war-time one they'll just get less effective and will probably collapse. (But collapse of country with nuclear weapons may not be fun :-( ).

@ljs @ptesarik @thomy2000 I don't disagree that Trump is evil and bad. I just wanted to clarify that there's no short-term danger. Europe is significantly stronger than Russia.

@ljs @ptesarik @thomy2000 Make a prediction, and state odds you are willing to bet on that prediction, so that rest of the world knows what you are talking about..

@ptesarik @ljs @thomy2000 There's enough people in NATO that understand game theory. So no, Putin won't send ground troops to NATO country in next 3 years (anyone wants to bet?). (But that does not rule out hybrid warfare).

If you fall of a horse, try not to hit his legs on the way down :-). (6 weeks, and its 95% healed, but it looks like remaining 5% will take time.)

@djasa Prezident republiky
Českého prezidenta lze podle článku 65 Ústavy postihnout pouze pro velezradu nebo pro hrubé porušení Ústavy nebo jiné součásti ústavního pořádku. Řízení provádí Ústavní soud na základě ústavní žaloby Senátu se souhlasem Poslanecké sněmovny. Jinak jej nelze zadržet, trestně stíhat ani stíhat pro přestupek nebo jiný správní delikt. To však platí jen po dobu výkonu jeho funkce, z čehož plyne, že po uvolnění z úřadu již trestní stíhání není vyloučeno. Naproti tomu až do roku 2013 platilo, že trestní stíhání pro trestné činy, které by spáchal po dobu výkonu funkce, je vyloučeno navždy. Původní faktická beztrestnost se tedy změnila na dočasnou nestíhatelnost.

Czech president will still face criminal prosecution after his term ends. That seems more reasonable than what U.S. high court decided.

U.S. high court has agreed that president has immunity from "official" actions.. Are there details somewhere? Am I the only one thinking "how can this be considered democracy"?

@vagrantc Charging with external charger should be reasonably easy. I have two chinese "clip-on usb li-ion chargers". Or maybe get non-broken pinephone :-).

@etchedpixels So I guess qemu or other emulators in Debian won't cut it, and I should take a look at https://github.com/EtchedPixels/EmulatorKit ?

I use FoxtrotGPS a lot for off-line map displays, but it seems its no longer available in Droidian. What is supposed to replace it?

@etchedpixels So ... what is recommended emulator setup with Fuzix? It seems I really should be using z80... I could get spectrum 3+ (or something like that) emulation working, but that's not really nice setup to use, due to limited screen size and awkward keymap. I guess I could get qemu to emulate 386, but... that's not z80.

@mntmn @darth There are some fully open RISC-V cores. You can't really make fully open ARM core.
