Fun fact: They also ship curl.exe, which is different from curl in PowerShell, as the latter is an alias to Invoke-WebRequest. That's one of the insanest decisions they could make …

Most of the companies behind it (including NextCloud itself & IONOS) are providing a document cloud to their users already & are used to maintaining Open Source, so I would indeed …

That sounds like you might like VyOS. I found it to be relatively easy to achieve exactly what I wanted, but went back to a GUI as it turned out I wanted a pet and not start a farm…

That is exactly why you don't see Windows being used anymore in big corporations. /s

The DC side is fully isolated except through a capacitor that is there to reduce EMI interference and is specifically built to "fail safe", except for the cheapest no-name imported…

The main problem is the bugginess in combination with the featurelessness. Usually you can work around bugs in some way or another, but many of the bugs in Boxes seem to come from …

Being wrong is one thing, on the other hand knowing that they don't know something is something humans are pretty good at (even if they might not admit to not knowing something and…

After what happened with Honey, I guess this probably means: they replace ads on pages with their own, pocket most of the money, and extort the sites who would have earned money wi…

In most jurisdictions yes AFAIK, if those services directly help an illegal activity, and you knew about the illegal activity.

Two different implementations might make two different local times out of that, e.g. due to not being aware of changing DST/timezone policies. Hence the recommendation of separatin…

I mean, that'd probably just be the worst case: you're afraid of social situations, but you also don't like to be alone.

Also, ads. I guess the shorter the time is between clicking the play button and the ad starting, the more people will have "seen" more of the ad before deciding that the video isn'…

So the Debian maintainer complains about the upstream project (which they decided to maintain the package for) bringing "crap" and having "utterly misguided" development? And someh…

Yeah, and out of that fear, people often use stacks that require vast amounts of knowledge to actually keep things working at all, at any scale. Kubernetes is the best example wher…

Communities are moderated based on how good you feel there, if it's the most ad-friendly, how good everyone stays on-topic, or other mostly social & subjective criteria. Judicial s…

Definitely at least electrical standards in most countries, and probably USB also specifies that the voltage needs to be isolated from mains. But yeah, usually those are illegal to…

Go uses the package name to retrieve the pagacke source - a package named github.com/example/whatever will be downloaded by basically cloning it with git & then checking out the sp…

I don't really understand how "hosted" and "internal" go together here - does this mean that a) the devices I need certificates for must connect to your servers, and that b) your s…

Absolutely agree, the new design makes it so much more modern & easy to use for the average user. I have the feeling that many complaints here are about specific workflows or speci…

Yeah, they've also switched their complete concept around before, going from a simple web code editor to a deployment-based hobby hoster, already breaking the use cases (and simpli…

Probably Java/JVM... Never seen something where all kinds of libraries log more.

There is no real competition going on with the big players anynore - Google Maps for example constantly jumps around to show ads, randomly zooms in and out when searching, has extr…

It is possible to prove that a piece of code matches a given mathematical specification. That spec has to be good though, and there can still be hardware failures (e.g. bitflips), …

My Dell laptop with Windows didn't recognize any headphones or headsets, until I tried 3 different drivers from 3 different vendor websites. Applications mess with volume settings …

It will heat up, as the contact points & probes will have resistance, not sure if there are good ways to correct for that.
