This just makes me miss SoftIce. Just hit ctrl+d and be immediately dropped into exactly what your machine is doing at any time. Of course, just doing this would be illegal on most…

(assuming the bug here is a description being assigned to a title) getDescription simply needs to return a Description object while getTitle returns a Title object. Duh. Only in th…

Yeah, they talked about numbers of bugs fixed, but those surely seem to have impacted the user experience. My big worry is that if I were to consider deploying to such a service, t…

If those major distros weren't switching though, you wouldn't have to, which is what my point was. The only reason you're adopting it is not for a practical benefit, just because t…

I've switched everything I write to use runit because runit doesn't require any particular init system, you can easily integrate it with sysvinit, freebsd's RC, ubuntu's upstart, s…

The thing is though - their code is already written. Systemd is entirely unnecessary for 99% of people, probably everything except some of it's LXC features has clear and popular a…

That's awesome, but you should consider F-Droid because you're probably going to get a takedown on Play if you get any level of popularity.

I looked at it but both price and lack of root and bootloader unlocking are extremely prohibitive for me. The keyboard is really its only appealing feature. I can get a device like…

Are there any pickins for android phones with keyboards with even remotely modern hardware (I'd settle for anything with a 1080p screen probably)? Seems extremely limited, I was un…

Yeah, the XBMC Youtube addon used to do subscriptions and the like, it was pretty nice, but I think it broke and the main developer abandoned it. Youtube-dl does support channels a…

Try NewPipe, it's an open source YouTube downloader and background player for Android: https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=org.schabi.newpi...

Isn't the whole point of Musk opening Tesla's IP to be able to sell more batteries? It's not charity, it's a business strategy.

You might also consider Cesium, which is WebGL based and gets you a globe view too.

I'd love this kind of report with various things. I'm thinking phones would be extremely helpful too, how easy is it to unlock the bootloader on this phone? How hard is it to repai…

Yes, eventually, but there's a lot bigger concerns than quantum computers currently.

Cheat Engine is an extremely capable tool too, has lots of reverse engineering features, including a debugger and pointer searching tools, a blue-pill style hypervizor to modify me…

> That is a concern for the DH key establishment though, that might be decrypted in future. If you're paranoid, configure your SSH server to only accept Curve25519-based key exchan…

Not sure, but my guess would be that the yellow was a hardcoded constant in the code in a few places and modifying it involved opening up system files in a hex editor and doing som…

Not to mention uboot, busybox, etc.

I've been thinking about how something like this could be done in a completely distributed way, I think I've even seen some research implementation of it. In any case, it'd be inte…

I just want to take this opportunity to say that as a paying customer, this attitude towards your duty of keeping a site online, no matter who's it is, is exactly why we swear by C…
