It would be a really huge advantage if there were a really clean way to browse, apply, and (extremely importantly) reverse and remove such a configuration script. I've tried using …

Would it feel better to see your bank account and pay checks shrink by 90%?

For others who might not know, KDE Neon is a distribution. I was initially confused because I thought it might have been an alternative desktop environment to KDE Plasma. This is p…

Pure mathemistician

On the subject of adding more buttons, I think there needs to be a rethinking of mouse button events at the OS level. Gaming mice with 12-20+ buttons have to resort to creating key…

Dang, there's a track on there, within a bike ride from me, that goes all the way to the biggest city in my state and passes within a few hundred feet of the university I attended.…

I'm beginning to suspect that I've read more of this paper than anyone in the current administration has. While President Trump has proposed a 10% tariff on the world as a whole, s…

I'm still reading the paper, but Stephen Miran must regret writing this... A sudden shock to tariff rates of the size proposed can result in financial market volatility. ... A seco…

I can see it. Firefox 137.0 (desktop) with uBlock Origin enabled.

I've always wanted toasters to have a lid to keep dust out. That's one thing I would add to their design.

I recognize that URL! Git-sim is so cool!

I've been using alibris.com

Machining metal parts is pretty loud. How was any of this done in secret?

I like my Garmin, but map updates are surprisingly expensive.

I got dragon from fire + swamp. Another strange one was puddle + rock = pudding + dragon = custard.

$851?! Well, at second glance, it's definitely larger than it appeared to be in the picture. Home depot says 35 pounds, so ~$100 worth of copper.

Most of the machines have hundreds of settings divided across a dozen different sections. Simple things like bold and underline make it much easier to visually parse the sections.

This is such an annoying change. I work in a production facility and I don't get to choose what is installed on the computers. It's either WordPad, notepad, or open a browser for W…

Even though it would make the language a little more verbose, I would love if Lua had a 'global' keyword and declaring global/local was required. With that one change, I think Lua …

Hmm. My hardcover copy has a mangled end-page, as seen in the last example on that page. Everything else looks pretty good, though, and my order history from 2017(!) says it was so…

I heard about that in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI5cu3G5oXk I may not remember it correctly, but I think the two original creators of the site ran out of money an…

Has anyone figured out how to pair magit with git-sim ( https://github.com/initialcommit-com/git-sim ) so that you can use magit's controls but then get a picture of what you're ab…

I had to watch several videos on youtube to answer this question for myself. The advantages to using ChimeraOS over big picture mode seem to be tied to Valve's gamescope compositor…

There might be some differences outside of Steam's UI. In this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2NIGPpz_vY ) it looks like the desktop mode switches to Gnome, whereas I'm p…

I definitely can't afford an 8k monitor, but this is also the reason I'd want one for gaming. Realistically, you'll probably never run it at 4320p, but depending on how demanding t…
