Goto (as in "Go to") and Goto (as in the romaji version of one of 後藤, 五藤, 五島, …) is simple two things that sound/look the same when written in ASCII w/o spaces. :)

`ansiweather` needs like ~6.28 MiB (measured with `/usr/bin/time -l` on OS X), but it's a bash script that invokes cURL, so there's certainly various overheads there too. One proba…

Thanks! The original link gave me a 403 only.

I'm getting a "browser not supported" by the Cloudflare check. So I guess the "job is well done", and the user is lost.

I always found it odd that there's only one single origin of life point or even just a single common ancestor considered in history. Shouldn't entirely new life develop all the tim…

Different word, same stupid concept. Also it would be one human "species", not "race".

I personally also block access by web browsers to non-standard ports (aka not :80 or :443) via an app firewall (Little Snitch here). In this case it would have warned me when the c…

I never upgraded beyond the PS2 (and I was a heavy console gamer back in the days), because all the "needs network", "needs account", "needs certificate to be valid", etc. stuff is…

I never really got into the 3D pinballs, for some reason those are less fun, maybe because visually they are harder to read? I always preferred the "2D" pinballs, with Pinball Drea…

Stupid question: wouldn't a simple comparison with the body(parts) from the inappropriate pictures sent to the girl have helped the innocent guy? I mean those thingies all look dif…

410 and a "Sec-Fetch-Mode:" string in the response body. I guess it thinks I'm a bot? Thanks! Nothing to read, nothing to see, I move along. (Yikes, the modern web sucks!)

Earlier era for me actually. I'm a 90s person. :)

A few really nice buttons there, indeed. :)

I may have missed one by looking at this huge dump, but NONE of the "buttons" I saw there actually looked/felt like a button. Something I can feel that I press it down and it gives…

My SSD only reports as 121 GB. Dunno why it's such an odd size. With 21,647,615 MiB (~20.64 TiB) written. Reporting as 99 (down from initial 100?) in the normalised value, but the …

It's the typical Cloudflare error where it tells you "Your browser sucks", not sure what a screenshot would help. :)

There's a survey link. Not sure it works as Cloudflare blocks me from accessing it. Oh the irony, having my opinion as EU citizen about an EU issue blocked by some silly US company…

I'm running my own home server on an old 2014 Mac mini, 24/7 basically. It both has a SSD and a HDD (old "Fusion" disk type of machine, but I use both parts separately, the SSD par…

F.ex. in the case of flyers or other smaller print products: You will not print one product for one customer at once, but many at once (e.g. from different customers), that will sh…

Site doesn't work for me (older Firefox). Looks like there's no CSS and some Javascript error (probably makes it bail out loading the CSS?)

Many years ago I worked in the printing industry. F.ex. a client wants 100 products of something (e.g. posters or flyers), usually it was more cost effective to produce a 1000 (or …

BlitzBasic(2) was also great. Hacked together bunch of games with it. Huge fun.

I wonder how many people may have gotten an actual heart infarct because of that. There may be a person out there that may be dead as a result. It's entirely irresponsible of Amazo…

There's a weird "Cloudflare" captcha on that site. I can't get past that either. :) Oh well… the article probably hasn't anything useful or important to say anyway. Time to move on…
