First thing I do at a new job is make friends with IT, if at all possible. I end up being the guy with the new high-dpi screens they're trialling, more RAM in my laptop, and "just …

The answer to that reply is you don't need to explain it to your users. People are used to fuzzy/best-effort sort of matching, especially when it's specifically presented as a "mat…

I can't believe you're the first person I find in this conversation who raises this issue. This is the exact reason why Marcan flipped his lid. Linus publicly championed a very tec…

I have a few projects that I've abandoned because they only made sense as a FOSS project, and I saw how FOSS maintainers were being treated. I love FOSS, I love the philosophy, and…

Yes yes and a reminder that BSD Jails are better than anything Linux does and a bunch of other dead horses we like beating on the regular around here. Which is a fanciful way of sa…

Ah yes, famously one can only be a sysadmin if they're unable to use a different cli verb order . Come on now. Either present a real argument or accept the fact that tooling isn't …

I don't see how the real mode emulation on the 80386 (VM86) fails to meet the standard of the Popek and Goldberg definition. IA-32, yes, that took a while, but VM86 allowed 8086 (r…

I looked right past `--resolve`, so yes that now makes sense.

> one.one.one.one:443:64:ff9b::1.1.1.1 Is this a typo or a weird curl-specific address format I've never heard of?

NAT essentially has a "default deny" rule.

.de domains require a German postal address, so I would actually trust them more than the .ru equivalent. Plenty of other ccTLDs have even stricter nationality requirements for reg…

I can't believe that this is the closest we have to a compact, stand-alone GPU option. There's nothing like a M.2 format GPU out there. All I want is a stand-alone M.2 GPU with mod…

The pricing is $20/ year if I'm not mistaken.

Can we add jxl to that list? Doesn't have nearly as wide support but you could be part of a turning tide.

Same. I can't be the only one who feels that Nix is doing the right thing the wrong way. The right thing being reproducible, declarative, composable environments; the wrong thing b…

Optimization was explicitly disabled by compiler flag for this experiment

One day I'll kids with phones, and I'll want to save their sanity. Does anybody know if MDM allows you to configure notifications? I'd enforce the same setting I have on my phone, …

And to contrast, Godot's GDScript has been great for me so far. I've been hacking at a personal project for a couple of days now and I feel right at home in the language, which fee…

None of the links here seem to be the one post that I found years ago, but this one in particular is pretty interesting. I found this[1] one while looking around, the thread has so…

The only way to hide the horizontal tab is with userChrome.css

I'm pretty sure they don't check certs. If they did, there would be many corporate networks and even entire countries where they wouldn't work, because they use DPI on all inbound/…

It's not that, but still very cool!

Some years ago, I read a post on HN where someone made a text-mode game(? or something similar?) available through SSH. People could play the game by opening an SSH session and pla…

It's for a Pi Wars robot. A robot that has to be driven by a Pi chip. AFAIK the ESP32 is made by Espressif, not the Pi Foundation. Additionally, I've learned that when it comes to …

It was/is a very well thought-out format that had a lot of industry signalling they were willing or even enthusiastic about supporting it, which happens virtually never for new ima…
