Hey mate, any progress breaking through 60WPM?

That’s the only metric which matters! Press on for a bit and don’t sweat it.

What span of time is this? 60WPM is great tbh. I’d say focus on just using this skill for the next year and don’t tie yourself up too much worrying about your WPM. Gains after this point may come a little more slowly, and through practical applications rather than repeated type training.

Aye, I did thank you for the correction.

According to Space.com in July 2023, there were 4,487 active Starlink satellites. 26 represents just over 0.5% of the total constellation. Considering it seems like a swarm-type system, 0.5% strikes me as simply the cost of doing business.

Edit: decimals.

“Bigot” is the word you’re looking for.

Strong concur. Religion is fine, but there is no place for extremism.

Close, XKCD:456.

Have you at least tried to install Gentoo? Everyone has to think they can, and fail, at least once in their lives.

TL;DR: It was a lump of ambergris.

From the article:

Experts have discovered the cause of death for a sperm whale that washed up unexpectedly on the shores of Spain’s La Palma island - €500,000 of “floating gold”.

The impressive discovery was made after experts from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria carried out a post-mortem, with authorities initially unsure how the 15-ton, 13-metre-long whale washed up on Nogales beach last month.

“When I dissected and removed the stone I turned around and everyone on the beach looked at me in surprise, but for me at that moment I understood where the origin of the infection was coming from,” Antonio Fernández Rodríguez, the head of the Institute of Animal Health and Food Security at the university, said.
The stone, he explained, was a large lump of precious ambergris, a rare substance sometimes known as “floating gold”.

Highly prized by perfumers, the 9.5 kg lump found in the whale can sell for up to €500,000 (£430,000).

If you know, you know.

I’m 0 for 1.
