    Also, accepting donations and sponsorships opens you up to being sued for profitting from copyright infringement.

    I use my own default CSS, so it's pretty nice to read for me. It's sad that most browsers have crappy default CSS. It really shines in text-mode browsers, though.

    I like this post because it validates my opinions! IMO this is the pinnacle of web design: https://stallman.org/

    Corn syrup represses the feeling of being full and is also extremely cheap to produce, it might actually make the applesauce cheaper to produce.

    Is the distortion of public opinion by means of the now fairly mature fields of economics, politicology and psyops how things got so bad? What can a person do to not feel powerless…

    Get an anti-adblock killer list, it's great :) I basically enable every list in uBlock. Suprisingly it almost never blocks too much, when I get blocked it's consequently for being …

    I guess it could still make sense for tech-heavy, "we rewrite 50% of our code every month"-companies, like... Google? Maybe they're mostly running their cloud to iron out the kinks…

    And 2017 is the time of Windows XP and WannaCry. What I'm saying is, those things are all still running in prod. I got an employer off Java 6 just two weeks ago. The next step is a…

    You could use Git-LFS for managing huge data blobs with Git?

    I'm flying significantly less, you could try that?

    I'm not sure, I only learned to manage services when I was already on Windows 7.

    Fair enough, I got hung up on the lack of guarantees to distribute code alongside compiled applications. Would you say compiled MIT programs are still "free software" when they don…

    Didn't they? My understanding is this happened: * Microsoft writes codes with bugs * NSA writes exploits for said bugs and a worm based on them * ShadowBrokers leak the NSA exploit…

    It's more akin to manufacturing portable arms factories, that can also replicate themselves. Lose one and you're SOL.

    I thought MIT wasn't free software as defined by the FSF? Open source would be the term for that. Free requires end users to receive source, open just allows you to use the source …

    That's what the lawsuit is to determine. I'm guessing Qualcomm will lose.

    It'd be a good start if they just didn't use Windows. But yeah, definitely. It's pretty damned unlikely that an OpenBSD backup server would get wormed, unless an ME exploit is invo…

    Disabled the SMB services yet? Win + R -> services.msc I routinely disable services (until things stop working and I have to figure where I went too far) and luckily I'd disabled t…

    To the author: it would be nice if your site had a small screens layout. I can't read the article on my phone because too much code is cut off (and the right margin is unpleasantly…
