IT IS NOT THAT IT HAS GONE AWAY, IT IS THAT THE CURRENT GENERATION IS IMPLEMENTING CRAP CLONES OUT OF IGNORANCE AND HUBRIS!!!

Multiseat is a dirty hack. It is about using software to build a terminal out of a random collection of screens and input devices. All it has really done is give us yet another "se…

Unix have all kinds of funny things if all happens within a single box. If you want to send someone a message, there is write (if the person have mesg set to yes). There is also ta…

Samba is a "mess" because anything Microsoft is a mess to be compatible with if you are not MS. That said, sharing files across networks is a hell all its own. In particular if you…

Netsurf can be compiled for framebuffer, and that variant can also be used in X (and imo is much easier to get compiling than the GTK UI).

Copyright trolling?

The process Google has set up is an outcome of DCMA, because Youtube can only operate as long as they can claim DCMA "safe harbor" status.

Yep. You do not have an account on each, you have a Google account that allows you to access all of google's services. And once it is closed, it is game over. Most people didn't no…

Dunno if it is still the case, but trains used to offer that as well.

Gets a guy thinking about those old flying boat routes.

Enough to register on sensors, not enough to trigger an immediate evacuation?

Err, when it didn't get the outcome the brass wanted they reset the whole event and set strict rules on the red side.

Why fake one vehicle when you can fake a whole exercise? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Challenge_2002

Since WW2, the "wars" have been mismatched to the extreme (never mind that in both world wars USA came in late, and never had its industrial capacity threatened). The closest to a …

Also went in late in both wold wars, when the other side was basically exhausted. Never mind never having had to operate the industry under 24/7 bombardment.

Never mind that Win95 didn't need a GPU that could push millions of polygons just to draw its UI...

I suspect that the eternal problem will be that of context. Back when Google started out, they bet the farm on the idea that more links pointing to a document meant that said docum…

I think the term used is emergent complexity. So when you go from particle physics to chemistry, new complexities emerge that can't be explained in the realm of particle physics al…

An idea that, thanks to US mass media exports, seems to be spreading to other parts of the world...

Gets me thinking about the term evercrack...

And with the kernel showing up in things like the spacex rockets, that is the sensible solution.

Just need to know where to shop: http://www.lian-li.com/pc-tu100/

But damn it was easy and flexible to mod.

I find useful from time to time (when i am using the mouse to browse anyways). that's in part why i never really got comfortable with the "tabs in titlebar" thing, as i am used to …

Lets aim it at the LKML. ;)
