Newfoundland has no shortage of stinky fishing villages, but I've been to this one and my god man . I've talked to fishermen from the area who are put off by it. It's been sitting …

Newfoundlander here checking in! Nope. She just sounds like that. Another comment mentioned it seems to be a CBC/traditional news thing. A bunch of them sound that way. The "accent…

Paperclip has worked fine in my experience. I've got a bunch of these and the stock antenna really is just awful.

For some people it's less eye straining if they're reading at night, doesn't help for me personally, but it's a popular feature

GDPR compliance, if you remove "uk" from the URL they just don't ask first :)

Yep, seeing a lot of these pop up lately. Probably an attempted supply chain attack. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_chain_attack edit: To be clear, if it was this, it wasn't …

Looks like that video was a demonstration from a company that sells these machines. The hole was just cut out for doing videos like this I'd assume, not a modification for regular …

One of the major side effects of Ambien is anterograde amnesia, some people are less sensitive to it, but generally anything you do in "black out" phase will be a complete blur the…

Taking a quick look, this should be able to run without issue on any distribution. They're using Docker to run all the components. No Ubuntu-specific dependencies.

Jeez, all of their posts are ads for this nsoft crap. Is this allowed on HN? Not sure how to alert a moderator.

Certainly not FUD or "advanced". No encryption/obfuscation used to communicate with C2 at all, common patterns in the c++ binary that drops on clients, no polymorphism, drops itsel…

The word you're looking for is "entertainment center", but yeah, weird there aren't more products available for that niche! There are lots of home AV receivers that might fit the b…

Big +1 for Gitea/Gogs, that thing will run on a toaster. Super low memory footprint and great for small shops.

My personal card pulls the same shit constantly. Last raise request I made was for $300 to put a bill on it, was declined, a month later I get an automatic offer for a $1000 credit…

This stuff is basically Goo Gone without the plant goodies and some aircraft paint thinner. It will remove most paint and clear coats so be careful! edit: I misread xylene as tolue…

Launchpad is public, think GitHub but for packages. The Canonical Launchpad repositories weren't tampered. Presumably a lot fewer people have commit access to LP since it's used fo…

Yes, the old drug patent will expire, and when this happens the company typically pulls an "oh our old version is now magically unsafe!" to wrestle away competition. Plus developin…

Heh. I've yet to witness a system yet that survived no disk space. Lucky the whole thing didn't lock up, had a remote mail server die like that and required an on-site intervention…

Haha I've known for years and I still use . Usually the linter will nag me, but otherwise I just don't care enough to fix it.

.NET itself has always been "free" (as in beer), it's just VS they made people pay for. They've had a community edition since VS2012 at least, possibly earlier but that's as far ba…

I swapped out Horde for Roundcube as my default for customers (who didn't want/need groupware, those are M$ and Zimbra), much easier on the eyes. Just as functional IMO.

This is a third-party extension, but it looks like the owner is still actively maintaining it, and pretty active on GH in general.

iOS browser apps are required to use WebKit, but you can pretty heavily modify things. There is a Tor browser app available, it runs Privoxy internally and proxies all traffic from…

For expand/collapse, one of the very few things I've liked about "new" Reddit is being able to click the indent bar alongside comments to show/collapse. Something like that in this…

For anyone else wondering about WWDC19, all of these PDFs are accompanied by a video. I guess they were separate in-person workshops.
