Thats right. Unfortunately, most people have they mindset fixed on never ending growth. We need more people, more cars, more everything. Yet, those people seems to barelly understand basic math and physics. Numbers do NOT lie. All that cool

Oh, belive me, I have very decent QoS on my side. Using combination of HTB and sfq+pfifo for traffic. I can download/upload and jitter wont go more than 2ms. Problem is on ISP side. They seems to have over provisioned network that cann

Fairness? It seems noone gives a shit about it. Most consumers want their data now. I have ETTH 100Mbit (with is very fast to my standards) and I can tell the difference between day, evening and weekend just by pinging my nodes. RTT is stab

Unison was one of the top tools to check for me. Unfortunately, its written in weird egghead language called Ocaml. It also support replicas, while I needed more p2p and VFS like aproach. So I wrote my simple DVFS repo manager in C instead.

Haha, right.. eBGP session to home customer.. Other solution would be /24 + VPS provider + eBGP session with them. Kinda overkill for me.

There are several IPv6 -> IPv4 interops (bridges) developed already. All of them appeard due to slow IPv6 adoption. Some of them are: NAT64, XLAT6, DS-Lite. Never heard about ND tables overflows? They fixed one thing, broken another. ARP

Excel as a spreedsheet is good tool, no doubt about it. The problem is the bloat that Microsoft brings with new versions. Personally, I use Gnumeric for Win32. Its old, but it does the job for me.

by Borg3 3y ago
Really? People still like those Microsoft bloated products? How come. I remember Office 2000. Nice and small, quick and easy to use. 2003 wasnt bad either, but you start to feel the direction. 2007 was last usable office for me. Anything la

It depends on tool. If this is some generic utiliy that interacts streams, it most probably should not be interactive. But for example if this tool is some kind of control shell for subprocess (like Quagga vtysh or FW control CLI) it would

Because he is lazy :) I use CLI a lot.. Im lazy too. But pretty much 90% of my tools implement --help because some tools are used not that often. If I ever try to use tool that does not have nice and clean --help output I curse :)

Hah, thats nice rant really. For example, I could not myself use new ViM version. They are so annoying. Trying to be smarter that me, auto add this, move cursor here, etc... And im not even sure how to turn that crap off. So instead I ended

Yeah, I run Linux VM in background and Xserver on my Windows to work on it. It works very well. The problem is bloated browsers like Firefox where it lags terribly over X. gfx.webrender.force-disabled = true Was helping for a while..

Oh I read the wiki article about them. Looks interesting indeed. Decent density, they claim 10000 cycles so if its real world 5000 cycles to start with thats solid 10 years!

by Borg3 3y ago
likely be LFP? I think those batts are already available. The problem is they arent that great. Power density is low, they are advertised for 2000 cycles so I guess reallife is sth like 1500, so around 5 years only. We really need great bet

RDP is really great compared to other solutions like VNC or Xserver. Im really sad there is nothing similar for Linux. Anyone?

Well said. Every technological revolution in past made humans scale up consumption. This will be no different I guess. Humans should focus on good, stable and enjoyable life, instead of trying to upscale all their activities to reach yet an

I also think that we were bitten by maxima: Be gentle what you receive and strict what you send. I actually myself liked it, but now I think its not a good idea after all. Internet is hostile environment these days, its better to be strict

Thats pathetic. I wonder why all those parsers do not do simple thing. Look for \r, found it? slap 0.. ignore ANY other \r or \n ocurences until next char. Same for \n. Once you have all lines in buffer.. reconstruct message with proper \r\

Well said, I hate all that autoconf hell really. Most of my programs can be compiled pretty much anywhere (or easy ported). Not that I write big complicated stuff, but its doable. One thing is unavoidable tho, but its ok, because its specia

Same here. Im heavy CLI user, even tho im also Windows user. Luicky, we have Cygwin, kudos to developers of it. Anyway, CLI also greatly fits w/ UNIX philosophy and reusability. Once you are confortable which CLI, learning new CLI is j

Humanity can have just 2 modes of operation (3th one is fake path). 1) is to consume less and less, so we end up like living in tents in dark with population 10B and more.. 2) Smart-manage population growth and cut bullshit jobs, so we end

Very well said. Im currently (most of time actually) have a great job, where I have quite a lot of free time (DC admin). Thanks to this, some of that time is spent on R&D of my own tools. And this creates nicely feedback loop. I have be

Uhm.. Why not padding using NOP ? Looks much more safer that slapping around random prefixes.

Yeah, thats the achivement too. I guess they are stick to 32bit protected mode of DOS, using DOS extender.

I think thats one of the reasons why Sun Microsystems disappeard. They HW was very reliable.

by Borg3 3y ago
Yeah, they usually compile fine. And if not, its not that hard to port them most of the time. Now try something reverse, like using modern language on old Unix. Good luck :)
