I need "tmux" on remote linux machines that don't allow me to install "screen". If there's an easier way to keep a session running (and interactive) over internet disconnects, I ha…

This levy is not meant for piracy, but for legal access - like copying the CDs you already bought to your phone. Compared to what we used to pay on blank media it's not so bad. If …

The combination of an Iphone Mini and an Ipad Mini really works well - alas apple decided that they no longer will make reasonably sized phones...

Looks like this is eSIM only - which is a show stopper. I'll have to research if they release a SIM mobile option somewhere on earth, if not, I'll probably stick with my current Mi…

AWS doesn't have to check that for every request. They only have to eat the cost if you go over and use more before they shut you down. And the shut down should be in a way that th…

Yes, any price that's not hard capped is unacceptable. One reason why I quit Amazon cloud after the trial year. No because they were too expensive, but there was no way to guarante…

Can you do this on a mobile device like an ipad? Can you do this when not logged in?

If I understand it correctly, as a PeerTube viewer I'm not only downloading the video, but also sharing it. Before I watched it. This is a problem in countries where uploading copy…

So far all my projects have targeted a specific database with no reason to change it. So what I do is write SQL commands, but keep all inside a specific file or module of the proje…

Heard about the language about 2 months ago and yes, it's fascinating. Also it's understood by ChatGPT (at least version 4). I asked it for "my hovercraft is full of eels" and got …

If you're reading Cory Doctorow books and blogposts, that's exactly what "they" are working on and the part of the population that cares about this may be a lot smaller than you th…

For Australian fans it's probably easy to import the DVDs and Blurays from some other country - since all have the English sound track. Personally I'm going to miss to be able to c…

Almost gave up on the Chess notiation, but now "All the vowels in your password must be bolded." clashes with the requirement to include a captcha and reloading this unleashes all …

As someone who is good at Python but knows nearly nothing about javascript: Very hard. Of course I can just write everything into a big js file, but if you want to structure things…

At first glance this looks very cool. For me to be able to write a cool test app I'd need a working date picker and some kind of radio button feature (so that I could ask you to se…

So for someone who has python installed locally, what's the point? Is it just the sandbox or is there anything else I'm missing?

If you need more convincing, you can buy the stool! This video ad explains it in detail. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbYWhdLO43Q

When making jam or cooking anything to keep for later, not touching the inside of the lid after to boil it to kill germs! I learned that when making jam with a friend who's a docto…

Not sure if I like the recommendation to not let Black change your code and just give out errors. I absolutely let Black change code and see the value in Black that it does that so…

It's more convenient to get exactly the stuff you want and you get a lot more. Of course it get's less satisfying. For me, it's gotten so far that the satisfaction of getting thing…

The good thing if that if I wake up at 4am, it's prime time in the US. So I can fire up a VPN on my ipad and live stream some US broadcast TV. And then, after a few minutes, so bac…

Anyone know any link to CCTV live urls so we could check for outselves the next game?

Get introduction to ffmeg, but it misses a lot of pro use cases. Mine would be to find out, if ffmpeg can create a chunked stream as an output (basically one like most TV stations …

While there's currently no den date for the swap, I'm pretty sure there will be one in a few years and then all stamps from stamp collections world wide will be worthless. European…

Some feedback: I'd welcome a way of de-selecting the English dictionary. Currently trying to learn Spanish and having to select Spanish as the language for each word makes the app …
