There is KDE Connect. You can easily respond to texts from that. Barring that, sending a text is a simple one-liner in the terminal. Worst case, you can just run the command via ssh or whatever other workflow you may want.

Pine64 has mentioned that they plan on selling the backplates individually with the proceeds going to the respective projects. So hopefully you'll still be able to do so.

Or more likely, the proponents of this will go the federal courts. Doesn't matter how many states say yes if the feds say no.

Github is not the only player, and there are plenty of other options. Git itself is decentralized, so that's half the issue solved. Gitlab, Gerrit, and a bevvy of other web front ends for git exist, some open source, some closed. Githu

But only because they can tie it to a user account . If DDG is the middleduck acting as an anonymizing layer, Apple won't be able to perform such analysis on the data. This is all conjecture obviously, it's hard to know exactly h

Only 5 microwatts of power, and it's still fabbed on 180nm. I'm assuming these "tricks" they speak of wouldn't be ruined if they went to, say, 5nm and reduced the power requirements even further. I hope I'm rig

Ugh. I hate web programming, but I'd rather churn out yet another javascript library than write a single line of ABAP.

Sadly, this is becoming the new norm. In another decade, that won't even be "wtf" any more. There's just not enough pressure on these giant corporations to change. And with the next generation being indoctrinated to a co

It's all about compromises. A hiking trail keeps foot traffic to one known area and helps minimize damage to the surrounding area. So yeah, the trail itself could be considered impacting wilderness, but if not for that trail, it would

LNT is too open to interpretation on some things. Personally, I don't mind painted rocks as long as they are hidden / turned upside down. I also don't mind cairn stones in backcountry paths. For me, it gives me a sense of bel

Well, the container manifest (or whatever you call it) is checked into version control. How you choose to deploy that is up to you, but a ton of CICD tools out there are made for just that purpose. Likewise, how you separate config data and

Ah, I should have looked for a press release on the Progress side of things. Thanks for that!

From my viewpoint, Puppet's portfolio is comprised of mostly half-baked stuff. You have Puppet itself, which is decent, and then an almost Google-level of weird stuff. They keep announcing new products but so far nothing seems to be st

I know nothing of Progress. Are they OSS friendly? I'd hate to see some of the OSS chef-managed tools die on the vine because of this.

I really think Google simply keeps FF around just to help prevent anti-trust litigation. When viewed in that light, it's a bargain.

I'm sorry, did you just allude to America being more corrupt than China? Granted, I'm American, and thus biased. I do see corruption in my government, but from what I can tell it's a small drop in the bucket compared to wha

You're making a lot of assumptions that this is a win for the employees. Besides the fact that the employees in question were quite literally being given the choice of "come work for us or lose your job", there's things
