It's a self-demostrating article, then!

In general, whimsical stuff has been disappearing from software everywhere. 22 years later, I still mourn the demise of the "Cookies are delicious delicacies" message from Firefox'…

The owners of the "AI" scraper are rich. The lone "pirate" is not. That's it.

Truly a "Beefy Miracle". https://web.archive.org/web/20230112002240/https://beefymira...

So you could say that the goose was not valued, huh?

Also strong winds, which allow the fire embers to "jump" rather long distances. That's exactly what's happening with the Madrid wildfire.

Back when I was a teenager in the late 80s and early 90s, there were two "mythical" machines that I read a lot about but could never afford to own, the Amiga and the Neo-Geo. Nowad…

I dunno. It's more like saying "that isn't your original art because you didn't paint it, only provided the frame". A pretty elaborate frame, yes, but only the frame, not the paint…

Does anyone else remember the very original concept of Quake, as explained in the "Previews!" option in the main menu of the first Commander Keen? As our follow-up to the Commander…

That "kummerspeck" ("sorrow bacon") really hits home, haha.

Attackers adopted over 1,500 orphan AUR package recipes, which are not official and are not Arch Linux packages.

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altere…

But enough talk... Have at you!

Very misleading title. AUR "recipes" are NOT official Arch Linux packages. Basically anyone can upload stuff to the AUR. Users are expected to read and understand the AUR PKGBUILDs…

Is It Really a Scotsman?

Because you want to?

Deja vu, I've just been in this place before ...

Sigh. As if I had not enough reasons to hate professional sports ...

Finally, some common sense in this utterly absurd situation. I'm so glad this year's "fútbol" season ends this weekend. AFAIK, they don't break the Internet for Segunda División ma…
