C++ alarms and surprises me, to be fair.

Sure; I have a Walltaker[0] (hi Gray) client with Buttplug support[1], it buzzes when your wallpaper updates! But my magnum opus was software akin to Edgeware[2] - basically, based…

>If I'm REALLY turned on, how long does it take for me to go from "I wanna use this" to "I am using this"? I'm glad this is a concern. I maintain software to the effect of buttplug…

Oh, I don't know, I don't mean to slander Librewolf. I'm just saying that intermediaries are sure to cause some kind of inefficiency.

I suppose I should finally switch to Librewolf. I really don't like Firefox forks, for the slow updates and because I do genuinely use some bleeding edge features, but I'm tired of…

> Maybe not to places like North Korea (which we don't have a presence in anyways) Sure they don't ;)

That seems a bit rude. You get the QA you paid for - zero. And nevertheless, whenever Windows software doesn't work in Wine, you shouldn't think "Wow, how did you fuck that up?". T…

IMO marking the row as generated makes its intent clearer. It also means less code - no generating UUIDs, shorter queries = more robust. For my workloads at least, I think it's wor…

The experience is pretty poor in Australia too. Texts are more common than calls, but the rate is roughly 1/day.

It doesn't seem like that odd of a choice. What else would you use?

Not really! In modern Linux specifically it's just a regular user group, but it's the de-facto standard name of the "administrator" group - users who can escalate to root privilege…

I'm Australian and concur that OP sounds full of himself. Telling self-righteous... friends, to wind their neck in is far more Australian than OP's behaviour. [0] https://en.wikipe…

$50 seems a bit steep for a 3D-printed RFID tag.

$1.500.000 sounds like a lot for names and addresses. What particular value would a buyer derive from this data?

Even less clickbaity title: Most Republicans didn't share misinformation about the 2020 U.S. presidential election on Twitter.

I own a Framework :) The build quality is pretty good - particularly given I can tear it apart. The speakers are okay. The webcam and microphone are poor. The battery life is accep…

They're the man at the end, actually. No extortion necessary.

> Why doesn’t a great MacBook alternative exist? I really don't get this either. Every laptop I've looked at has some wart somewhere - battery life, webcam, structural integrity, d…

What gave you that impression? I tried spamming "a" and the URL indeed did not get longer. Reassuringly: function serialize(value) { if (value === '') { return ''; } const data = n…

jan Misali has a great video on why most spelling reforms are bad[0][1] and this one falls for a very very common fallacy - spelling makes more sense when it "maps" to "pronunciati…

No offense to the author, but was this deliberately written to hard to read? Or does all PS look like this?

I certainly see Kitty is as a little crufty ("feature-packed" to some), but from my limited research it appears to be one of the fastest, so I can't really complain :-)
