This is neat. Z-machine internals without needing to run a debugger.

For those things you can't control it doesn't ask. You can see those under "other permissions" (or similar). But once you look there it's too late if you care about this data and forgot to turn on airplane mode.

OK, that's even worse. Thanks.

As I understood not ANY website can see it. But the same website can see it regardless if you reset your identity in Tor Browser. So it persists between anonymous sessions. So you could connect User A that logged out and reset the identity

Most stock android phones don't either. You usually get to control precise location, notifications, some background activity, SMS, Calls, Mic, Camera, SD Card, etc. But most ROMs don't allow controls for WiFi, Cell data, Phone ID,

Must be cool to have bike weather all year round. ;) Yeah, snow and scooter/motorcycle is not a great mix here. But touring the Alps down to Lake Garda was amazing. Can recommend.

Honking is more for the people behind/around me. I also don't want to be hit by inattentive people following me to closely. May I ask where you are riding? I am currently in Bavaria. The danger level is usually higher after the wi

Oh I know. They look at me while turning left cutting me off. Maybe I need a bigger bike, the 2cyl 400cc is particularly invisible. ;) Best one was a woman who cut me off doing her left turn. I high-beamed her and honked. She put her hands

Yeah, same here. It's a black box. Nobody knows how it works or what you can do to make it hassle free. MS went from "developers, developers, developers" to being a nightmare for everyone involved. I actually liked Visual Stu

Just shows how quickly and thoroughly those stupid suits managed to destroy its reputation. Guess they love burning money or really needed those tax writeoffs.

I have found that MS still blocks my signed and timestamped .msi files for at least a few days. From saving the downloads in Edge and then via Smartscreen once you get it downloaded. If I submit it manually for every update it tends to go b

Sadly I had to kick a few cars that thought they could run me off my motorcycle. Worked every time. All of them didn't look out the window or they would have looked right into my face. Yelling and horn did absolutely nothing. Most of t

I am noticing something those devices have in common. My Galaxy Tab also has dead EMMC. My HTC One M8 still works and even holds a day of charge. Too bad Android doesn't support 32bit ARM anymore.

You talk like that is a bad thing. Win32 UI works, is fast, works everywhere even on ancient 640x480 server screens, safe mode and vnc in 16 colors without opengl, directx, Angle or vulkan. Flutter is nicer to scale and maybe design but it

Depends on the country but around 40-50% would be taxes, climate compensation and other stuff, yes.

So normal Europe prices from before this thing. It's up to $8.50 per gallon there now.

Shouldn't matter when I am not on GUI seat. In my SSH session with X11 forwarding there is no DISPLAY emacs could use. Tried it anyways, looks the same: $ time emacs -nw -Q -e kill-emacs real 0m0.075s user 0m0.062s sys

no, this is the TUI version. X11 emacs with all the composited effects needs about 200-250ms to open (about the duration of the animation for opening and closing it). That's more like OP's timings.

What hardware are you on? On my old Ryzen 3600X running Arch it's a lot faster. Does the UI eat so much performance on OSX? $ time emacs -Q -e kill-emacs real 0m0.076s user 0m0.058s sys 0m0.018s $ time nvim -es -

I have an immutable Alpine Linux running from an ISO that includes a few docker containers (mostly ruby and php). All in about 750MB.

I think adoption will hinge on whether existing Android apps will just run on it with something like waydroid/anbox or not. Gaming on Linux took off with Proton. Linux on phones might go the same path.

You should be able to do that via DNS SRV entries. _xmpp-client._tcp.domain.tld. TTL IN SRV priority weight port target _xmpps-client._tcp.domain.tld. TTL IN SRV priority weight port target example: _xmpp-client._tcp.not-my-domai

Try Toast Hawaii. The weird mix of ham, pineapple and cheese the Germans make. I am still convinced the lava cheese insulator is there only to burn people's insides with boiling pineapple.

I did a similar thing on my DOS PC. Lots of DOS software gets confused when there is more than 64MB of XMS/EMS free. So I just gave 64MB of the 128MB to smartdrv. It's more RAM drive I ever had when using DOS for work back in th

P-CAD even had a dongle-caddy where you could plug in I think about 7 of them into to unlock different modules. I will check if I can find an image of it. EDIT: here is an old listing of it: https://www.ebay.com/itm/187

Brightness down, LAN card disabled (the media sense on RTL cards sucks about 1.5W with no cable plugged in, wtf? Thats more than the Wifi needs) And powertop (great piece of software, thanks Intel) tuned to the max + powersave scheduler.
