    This isn’t an airport, you don’t need to announce your departure.

    There's a name from the past... according to the Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rusty_n_Edie%27s_BBS , they _only_ had 124 dial-in lines.

    I recall running Opus (or maybe the predecessor whose name escapes me) under DESQview on my lousy XT clone. I don’t recall it being crashy but it certainly didn’t have enough horse…

    I dunno, Google Reader was actually pretty good. I am also a NetNewsWire user…

    I did the same- replaced an Ender with an A1. Unfortunately, I’ve had it 10 days and have yet to be able to print anything. Won’t calibrate and cannot update firmware. Seems like a…

    It always shocked me that isn’t the way for all. When I was on FB, I only friended people that I “knew” in real-life. I guess that’s why I only had a handful of friends :)

    I want to be a Sublime Text user. I want to give them my money. I want the performance of a native macOS app, but… I’m a full-time Go developer. Last time I tried Sublime Text, I c…

    This brings back fond memories of my A1000 with Workbench 1.3. It's still amazing what this machine was capable of given it's very limited resources back in the day. Anybody rememb…

    Is it safe to assume that future ASi CPUs for desktops will have just Firestorm cores and no Icestorm, which should further increase MT performance? I know Apple was trying to get …

    Interesting project/product, though I'd really like to see a conventional case instead of the "toaster" style.

    +1 I am quite comfortable dropping to a terminal to run `ag` but this shouldn’t be necessary. Such wasted potential in a GUI file manager and seemingly no chance it’ll ever be impr…

    Sadly, the Archer C7 cannot exceed 60Mbit/s without hardware offload when running OpenWRT. I had to replace mine with a Ubiquiti wireless access point and a dedicated pfSense box.

    My biggest hangup for my project is Celery... not compatible with 3.7 due to the use of the reserved keyboard `async` :(

    FFS, this article is nonsense. If you're not disciplined enough to properly read and review code whether it's colourful or not, syntax highlighting is the least of your worries. St…

    I typically bounce between vim and Atom for Python development, with occasional forays into VSC. VSC has come along very nicely to the point where I may just make it my full time G…
