"Minecraft was supposed to be about simplicity." Minecraft was supposed to be a toy project Notch wanted to mess around with. Simplicity has never been a target, since every major …

If the file does not exist, it creates an empty file. That is what most people use touch for.

Another way to touch a file: cp /dev/null file Test if a port is listening without telnet: echo > /dev/tcp/address/port && echo Yes || echo No That's not actually a file. It's just…

I think I only have three subscriptions at the moment... Prime, Chewy, and a news commentary streaming site I like. That's pretty much it, not very expensive. Everything else is av…

I know BMW turn signals are a meme (with good reason...), but I've noticed the exact same behavioral trend with Lexus drivers as well. It's really just those two makes in particula…

The package format only really matters to packagers anymore I think. RHEL and SUSE are both RPM based though. The difference which matters to users is the package manager on top, w…

I imagine if you had a million bucks you could set something like that up.

I work maybe two hours a day. They're very productive, but I cannot be productive constantly for more than that due to having to wait on other people in order to get stuff done, an…

How do we know yet if it's long-lasting?

Android runs on a Linux kernel.

Any plans to add a folding feature? Vim has a plugin which lets you hide the code under the definition unless you want to unfold it to see/edit it. e.g. folded: class ClassName(obj…

Wine is only a syscall translation layer. It's not an implementation of Windows.

Sorry, I couldn't help it.

You mean like with Ansible?

Try accidentally moving /bin. A buddy at work did that not too long ago. There was panicking involved.
