    I do have an ancient Dr. Stika cutter plotter which works on an old WinXP with parallel port. I did try a few times to get it to work in a VM with an USB-Parallel adapter but haven…

    What do you mean? It's exactly that in almost any programming language. What is it you don't understand: "method" (a representation) or "decimal" (a number that consists of a whole…

    And American prices are already insanely low. If I want to buy a RAM in Austria for $30k I get a used car with 150.000km. If I want a new one it's (much) over $100k.

    How long ago was the second shot? There's a reason why Europe accelerated the start of the Booster vaccinations (third shots). Unfortunately there's still a lot of people that didn…

    Looks great, just tried it. One feature that is missing: "reload map" or something. It's only showing things near my "real location"; but I'd also like to explore different locatio…

    I'm still using my 12 (!) year old 17" MacBook Pro as daily work machine. Yes, it's not the fastest computer but for my usage it works. Granted, starting IntelliJ needs some time, …

    Why not wireless charging? I don't mind the connector (lightning works well), better would be mandatory quality of the cables (the iPhone cables are regularly breaking).

    I'm still using my 2009 MBP (updated HDD and replaced battery once) without problems. Unfortunately it seem's that I will have to update some time in the future because of missing …

    That's a great set of features! I'll try it on my next prototype. Especially the OpenAPI export is great; I had always problems with automatically generating it (in go/node.js/.net…

    Haven't used it till now (except maybe via nft?). What I'm not sure is: who is preventing BPF to be used as rootkits? Since they are run inside the kernel and cannot be inspected (…
