That's quite the claim. Where's your evidence? I'm only stating a name many of them have branded themselves as, and proudly at that. It's a point of discussion and quite frankly di…

Unfortunately that's their shortcoming and not mine as I can at least correct my mistakes. Other people aren't keen on correcting theirs nor can I force someone to recognize their …

When these people title themselves that way it's not inaccurate to use.

Because there's nothing to regret. The article was a hit piece, wildly inaccurate in it's editorialization that equates to a lie. People are foolishly listening to some ignorant ra…

Another child peddling wares. They should be ashamed for using her like this.

This is why I use it. I haven't upgraded to Safari 13 yet so if that's where the change is it hasn't hit me yet. Still using an old version of ublock origin that has updated lists …

Which is going to happen regardless. What would you rather they consume, an internal combustion engine that spits out a deadly exhaust or an electric vehicle that uses power, presu…

The medium article that was parroted by other sites was a hit piece that lied. And of course the people reading it believed every word without a shred of doubt, and other outlets r…

He's not wrong. They don't provide anything we couldn't get elsewhere.

You can't be serious to compare US infrastructure to Germany. In my experience living there, the Deutsche Bahn is not to be trusted to be on time, or run at all. And while Amtrak i…

If the filesystem itself was modeled after a database (which it can be argued it is, somewhat), it's not much of a stretch for WinFS to have been a thing. I was looking forward to …

I've been using this for a few years now, didn't know Linus Torvalds was involved!

You'll also want this to give it a bit of that "used/read" feel: http://hanno-rein.de/archives/349

It's disturbing that the first thing you admitted to thinking of when I said "downsizing" was letting people die. What the heck? the basics of econ, growth isn't even mentioned whe…

if you don't understand what it means to downscale production I can't help you. Capitalism doesn't depend on infinite growth.

Who said he was using cloudflare as his upstream DNS? There are far more choices than cloudflare, google, or your ISP.

You obviously downscale the economy with a population that doesn't sustain or require growth.

No one needs mass immigration. Especially those with high living standards and "low" birth rates. The position you're taking is an outright lie and I can't fathom why it's constant…

I disagree with the idea entirely. My energy usage is between myself (my company) and the utility company. Why anyone else has to have this information shouldn't even be an ongoing…

The anti-nuclear scare was saddening. We could have had multiple per-state with cheaper electric and more efficient and resilient power grids by now.

I'd like to mod my Tesla Model 3 to remove that huge screen and put the screen on the dashboard in a smaller screen behind the steering wheel, and the controls on the steering whee…

Both Pythonista and OpenTerm on iOS are "good enough" for a lot of what I need, but it would be nice to have a proper shell. Even if it's jailed/locked to /private/var/mobile

rw file access doesn't mean there's a lack of file level permissions restricting a non sudo user from accessing an otherwise restricted file. case in point: try editing the /etc/ho…

As hyperbolic as this is, I agree with it. There's no need to constantly monitor people like this and it's realistically "big brother-ish" to do so. What society, parenting, and/or…
