That's not a very charitable interpretation of his comments.

Universal healthcare is real and human. If we can't use an article to inform how we think about current problems, what's the point of it?

What specific phone did you actually buy?

ZFSBootMenu doesn't work with FreeBSD, it only knows how to boot a Linux kernel.

Ubuntu shipped with a bug that they introduced by way of a very badly done patch. While I get your point, I don't think it's fair to use Ubuntu as a source - they're grossly incomp…

I just switched to Lawnchair - took me quite a while to replicate the minimal look/feel I had with Nova. Thanks for recommending it!

Your entire argument hinges on the claim that he's presenting himself as a journalist. He's not doing that. You're not arguing in good faith and it's clear you have an axe to grind…

An op-ed is an outside opinion piece published by a news organization, historically in a print newspaper or magazine. It's irrelevant if he's giving his opinion on a subject in a Y…

If you can ride the Metra from your city to Chicago proper, you're in Chicago!

Since when is Jimmy Kimmel a journalist? He hosts a late night talk show.

There's nothing even preventing the second form from working either. Just put the right shebang at the top of the script and it'll run through that interpreter. I've been on fish f…

XWayland runs on top of Wayland, and is a way for X11-only applications to still work. It does not run inside a native X11 session.

Tell that to translators.

Haiku is an open source recreation of BeOS.

Yeah. Unfortunately, ZFS encryption is missing a few creature comforts of something like LUKS. I've stuck with native OpenZFS mechanisms, though, to keep the complexity sprawl to a…

Quick note on #2 - there aren't really any issues with storing your encryption root passphrase in a file. If the file is owned by root, with no read permissions for any account, on…

I was running it on a Dual 1.25ghz G4 with 2GB of RAM- a fairly high-spec machine for the 10.4 era.

I booted a G4 Mac the other day, running 10.4.something. I was thrown back in time to a period where OS X was clearly their flagship software stack. Everything was coherent and coh…

The Wheel of Time series, start to finish. So pleased that Brandon Sanderson stepped in to finish it.

Snapdragon support is decent to great these days, and importantly it's all in the mainline kernel tree. Edit: though it should be said that what I think is good might be a far cry …

Looks like the post was neutered, but this is another source. The speed of the car was well in excess of what the road conditions could tolerate. Horrible crash, but the fault can …

Very interesting. I was a bit out of the loop on Intel mobile CPUs; I looked up the benchmark specs for it when purchasing and saw that it generally trounces the 255U. I've been re…

Don't forget the V series in there. I have an Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 258V in my Thinkpad. I think they're still being made. I bought an open box Thinkpad T14s Gen 6 with it - th…

That's a fascinating bit of sleuthing! 1.5 watts is a substantial amount of energy when you're in the 4 to 5 watt overall usage range. You're not crazy and nitpicking.
