Are you reading it as if the Nepalese government had a data breach? Given the positive connotation of 'welcoming', I read it differently but I can see the confusion indeed

And police officers make a living off of crime; ambulance personnel wouldn't get paid if nobody got sick or injured. What's the point of that observation?

I'm not sure I understand the question. What would prevent you from doing what these people did now that LLMs are here?

15 quid that it won't work without installing an app that could have been a website or a card swipe terminal

If you enjoy this, you may also enjoy the `atc` binary that is shipped alongside tetris and other classics in Debian's bsdgames package. Also exists for Ubuntu ( https://packages.u…

I found it reasonable because there's no need in this specific case but you do often use quotes and this could be a good middle ground of annoyance (line complexity) and getting th…

I tried looking it up but "“sadge” The word you've entered isn't in the dictionary." Care to say more than whatever slang I presume this is?

Yes, still down. The HTML loads eventually with the query contents, but no CSS, much less query results

No issues here with Firefox on Linux or Android 11 (installed from F-Droid in case that matters). Strange. I wonder if it's a network difference rather than the workstation setup

There's a highscore system but considering it's a matter of time before that gets cheated, the first run where I didn't struggle with backspacing into a previous command (which is …

Switching categories does not restore scroll position to top, so you start to type what shows as being on top and the whole list changes to "you've got the first command wrong and …

Why call it "Ant" and not "Antjs" or "Ant.js" when there is already Ant from Apache? https://ant.apache.org

Seems unlikely/strange that all these clones would miss this little thing of using the derivative instead of the accelerometer directly so that it 'actually works' > But the signif…

From an accelerometer's point of view, there is no observable difference between standing "still" (on earth's surface, moving some km/s around its axis, which also moves around the…

Sure, we can have different opinions on what makes a useful Linux distribution. Either way, you can't install Ubuntu Touch on just any phone. That Volla supports that alongside the…

Thanks, but there's no way anybody here hasn't already heard all of that. GrapheneOS' statements are inevitably reposted to every thread and subthread that touches on the topic. Ye…

Somehow that stands in stark contrast with the many Fairphone users that I know use their device for many years. One of them uses it as their primary computing device, not owning s…

Privacy is when nobody is looking, whether that's because they cannot look or because there's nobody that looks. Security is the former: actively denying someone or something the a…

Nah, Android is not a really a proper Linux system that 'supports' Linux software within any reasonable definition of the word; not anymore at least Root nowadays gets you very lit…

Oh, one vendor supporting multiple OSes! I hadn't clicked through ( https://volla.online/en/operating-systems/ ), that is neat indeed and quite a unique selling point among mobile …
