Was it 80%* or 96%? Was Phacility paying for a dedicated IP or not? If someone from a company is lying to you then is this really an overreaction? (*Was 80% cherry-picked from a pa…

I'm surprised by the other comments here that I'm in the minority thinking that the sales approach was pretty terrible. You're trying to sell something you don't understand to a co…

I thought your point was that Manjaro isn't afraid to try to introduce commercial software into the default installs... (The FreeOffice version included was essentially feature-lim…

You've taken that sentence out of context. ;)

Using funds to pay for colo costs (and possibly staff) is not "skimming". The entire purpose of raising funds is to pay for things.

The front page of the project says: > Please do not share this website with others until we believe it's ready for broader distribution. Sure, it's accessible, but it doesn't reall…

You can switch to whatever theme you want. The defaults are opinionated. If you like them, great. If not, use another distro. That's fine.

It doesn't make the original bug less severe, but it was resolved under an hour after it was reported.

There is an _option_ to do this, it is _not_ the default.

From my limited understanding: it looks like a matrix coprocessor, and implies that hardware-accelerated matrix processing has been built into the M1. Matrix processing comes in us…

> 10€ is given to the project edition. Do you know where this payment goes to? e.g. is it to their OpenCollective or LFX donation accounts?

Possibly useful existing implementation: https://github.com/unfs3/unfs3 This has the benefits of being tested and having a working read-write implementation (along with still being…

Want to "skip" the compile step? //usr/bin/tcc -run $0; exit main() { printf("Hello\n"); return 0; } Just `chmod +x` and run it...

That wasn't quite what I was trying to show with the snippet - I was intimating that you can use tcc to run C directly in something like a shell script. If you want to make `tcc -w…

I was just about to reply about the same thing: #!/usr/bin/tcc -run #include int main() { printf("Hello\n"); return 0; }

You're shocked that they consider and plan for a worst-case/edge-case scenario? That sort of attention to detail is what continues to impress me about the Arch methodology.

I wish those people who find they can easily find another job without any effort or worry would realise they are not normal. For the majority of people finding a half-decent job ta…
