Viewing profile — NCommander

I should just change my opening to "This is your host NCommander, and once again, I'm suffering through X" :)

Instructions unclear, currently at bottom of the Pacific. Found Integrity hardware, but nothing actually useful.

If I had one, I'd look at doing so :)

I use DaVinci Resolve 17 for primary video editing, plus Fusion for basic composition. Blender was done for most of the animation work (the semaphores being fusion compositions ins…

No, I'm aware it is. Most of the problems is people trying to use it to distribute binary source code. Using it for source builds and debian/rules is a lot saner and straight forwa…

The best equivalent I can give is this is roughly like opening up a MSI file, and replacing its guts. It works but you're asking for a really fragile system in return. What is the …

Wow, this is horrible advice. I'm a Debian Developer and an Ubuntu Core Developer. What this will do is create a package that doesn't properly handle dependencies and be incredibly…

The entire point of authnicode wasn't to protect users, it was to make sure software wasn't modified in flight (ala what SourceForge did), and to make those binaries accountable. N…

I'm happy to see this project going onward due to the fact that systemd continues to be a giant sore that keeps entrenching on the entire stack. If nothing else, it means that a us…

If you are the copyright holder, you can put a OpenSSL exception clause in your license which allows this to work. Debian requires such a clause for GPL software to link with OpenS…

AIX at least has LLVM, and IBM had unofficial GCC ports for years. If you want a dumpster fire for development work, I'd highly recommend HP-UX. HP-UX's stdio wasn't very std back …

It does in Microsoft's world who #define it like that. As I remember, and if I'm wrong, I'll correct it, the different on 32-bit was that stdcall and pascal change the order of how…

IBM Mainframes laugh at Windows backward compatibility. 50-60+ years isn't unheard of. I actually want to at some point climb that cliff but my next write up is exploring Windows 3…

Even for Windows 1.0, I can see ways to cut this thing down to size. The point though is that this is what MSFT actually included in the SDK, and I remember reading about in "Progr…

They did in 32-bit Windows (NT3.1 is pretty much the same on a core level from Win 10). The problem here was that the 8088 suffered from segmentation which put "interesting" constr…

No, not really. You can get chroots to run on a command kernel but ABI changes happen without soversion bumps which stupidly complicate matters. Godhelp you if your application tri…

I'm fine with either showing up, although it originally was posted to SoylentNews (which I'm a site administrator), and then sent to neozeed to post as SN deals with news more like…

You're welcome. I just got tipped off on this ending up here. The rabbit hole was incredibly deep, but by time I was out of it, I was determined to share the pain with the rest of …

Are there any plans to push this code back upstream to Apache? My understanding is SF.net abandoned the legacy alexandria (the PHP code from VA Linux) source code, built the curren…

Actually, the "don't have IP address" is a sanity check if this code fired from slashd; if someone coming in from the web interface, the GATEWAY_INTERFACE var is always set by mod_…

backslash (the admin interface) is fragile, during beta testing, we got the site stuck in an infinite loop because the UI for topic creation is not the greatest. I'm not sure I get…

Slashdot.JP (which is owned by ODSJ), and BurraPuento. At the time this code was added to the repo, macslash was also up.
