I find your presentation of this argument disingenuous and in bad faith. > they seem to have an issue with a lot of folks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roku#Carriage_disputes 4. Th…

> Roku is really crap to use I disagree, I find the Roku experience to be quite easy to use and it does what I want with no surprises in the UX.

Ahhh, I did not (my bad) - I don't track grep features, not a hobby :) this chart could have been more truthy 2 years ago for all I know. Thanks.

Some of these line items are really obtuse and in some cases just not right, "Don't search in binary files" and "Treat binary files as if they were text" for example caught my eye …

The name on that email is not one of the Runbox folks listed on their About page, so one can only guess who that actually is or how the email was sent; it could have been a BCC for…

From a quick look at tech specs from a few sources (asus, gsmarena, etc.) the USA version lacks 5G band n41, which is the backbone of T-Mobile (+Sprint).

Not sure which reply to post this under, so I'll just reply under GP - it took me about 3 minutes to locate a popular HN client which specifically advertises account creation in th…

One of the first things we did on Solaris installs was install the GNU userland (it's been so many decades, I forget the specifics - packaged somehow, not ./configure; make) so we …

Hello! Hydrogen sorely needs 2 basic things to make it usable as a daily driver - separate DM one-on-one conversations away from Rooms and add a Dark mode toggle. These two things …

This group attempted to register the trademark by extension to the USPTO and was denied for several reasons. Reason #2 for the denial was "Likelihood of Confusion" and points at th…

One positive thing I'd add - as a user - under logistics is high availability. Life is messy, servers go down planned or unplanned for whatever reasons - IRC networks are in a sens…

You've basically just described duplicity with rclone as the backend (their term). I personally add duply in front for usability (it handles your includes, excludes, "profile", etc…

Dude, CGNAT is handled at the ISP layer, I do not have an IPv4 address at all locally, it's a 464XLAT done on T-Mobile's side. All users come from a shared IPv4 on their network, n…

I'm literally on Arch using NetworKManager, when creating a new connection it defaults to Stable Privacy in the dropdown, but EUI64 is listed first in the dropdown itself. So, sinc…

I'm on a shared IP with millions of people using the same public IP (T-Mobile CGNAT), there is one IP (many of them, actually) doing that right now from every T-Mobile customer. Yo…

I'm with you! It's possible that at one time I thought as you (also being a music fan), but in the past 5 (?) years you can't trip but to find someone talking about rust in the tec…

For me, "crate" is now associated with anything rust (and I'm neither a rust person or a programmer) - if I see crate in relation to tech, "it has something to do with rust."

Trivia: by default (unless it has changed upstream), the F-Droid app defaults to "Include anti-feature apps: Off" in the Settings. The user must go in there and manually opt-in to …

Nit rebuttal: I was referring to the F-Droid repository which I thought was clear from context. These elements are scanned for and apps called out (tagged) should they contain some…
