Alternatively, if you're not stuck on Linux, just install OpenBSD or NetBSD. Both will try to install X by default, but you can easily disable this in the TUI installers. After a reboot you'll go straight to a shell with very few

Older processors were not necessarily more energy efficient than newer ones. I'm willing to bet you'd get better battery life out of something like a modern ARM Cortex-A than any 68k, FPGA-implemented or otherwise, and have it be

Any log analyzer will tell you which path is the most hit. For slowest paths, I think a server daemon could theoretically log how long it took to serve the page from request in to last byte out, but I don't know if any of them do that

Theoretically it could still be done, but by doing so you completely break compatibility with any browser which doesn't support it; I'm pretty sure no non-Trident-based browser ever supported VBScript. Unless some other scripting

Isn't a hash collision from similar images the point of the whole thing? At any rate, IANAL, but I'm pretty sure you can't be convicted based on a hash alone. If you get busted for possession of a picture of a nematode and

I understand your particular pain, but I want to share the flip side of it. QMK devices are great for me as a Mac user because it's very rare that any of the custom firmware configuration tools for input devices get ported to macOS. Bu

Opposite here. After trying a few, I have no interest in buying cordless mice and will actively go out of my way to make sure any mouse I buy is corded. Even if things have gotten better in the last few years since I've tried them with

I host my personal site on OpenBSD and its built-in httpd, though in its current incarnation it's just serving static HTML. No, no HTTP/2, but if I cared about that I could install Nginx and use that instead. httpd's config s

It could be, but the presumption is that you're not building something that could just be compiled down to a static site at the end.

And there's the Postgres fanboy I knew was coming eventually. :) Could you elaborate on why timestamptz should be used? The name would imply it stores a time zone; is that correct, and the normal timestamp type does not as in MySQL?

That's hardly unique to SQLite. I'm a huge fanboy of SQLite, though I have to use MySQL in pretty much all of my client work since I more often get hired to work on existing projects than start new ones. There's three common

Or use the "article view" mode of your browser if it has one; it works with Safari's implementation. Japan Times' "paywalling" is pretty naïvely implemented.

I suggest trying to find a "retro arcade" which has older machines, often with discounted rates (eg, two credits for 100円 for a game which originally just gave you one). Obviously these will usually be in more out-of-the-way place

I'm a freelance web developer for https://gamerguides.com/ which also uses Leaflet for video game maps. It's a little weird to get working with at first but it turns out it's well suited for that sort of use
