You’re gonna end up with a shitty society then. I’m one sane person who could agree which invalidates your conclusion

You can do what you want but it’s not nothing: it costs six keystrokes every time (seven, counting shift for tilde)

White potatoes are in the middle but French fries (I’m assuming fried? But you can bake them too) are at the bottom, so strange Also based on that list, I think salsa might be the perfect mix: low cal and high satiety

The most interesting section on distrowatch for me is the top reviewed distros.[0] It shows what the hard-core Linux users are (at least) appreciating, if not using. N.B. It has nothing to do with popularity (number of users) [0] https:&#x

He’s just doing it the Android way, separate user accounts for each application/binary. The one critical thing with running as root in my mind is clobbering some storage in /dev. Elsewhere in this thread the benefits are described

Right now it’s $2500/year unless you have more than 100 servers, each server thereafter would be $25 on top of $2500. It’s most likely because the costs of doing any business with other businesses isn’t worth it with a $25 minimum. I h

They really should have renamed it systemd-files five years ago, it might have let the user know it wasn’t just purging tmp https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/12447

I know you mentioned desktop in the end but it’s funny you got this exactly backwards- almost every Linux on a computer is either gentoo (chromebooks) or red hat/clone of red hat (servers)

Has there been any store in the history of stores that didn’t have advertising though? News has half the stories being corporate PR anyway, stocks app I’m not familiar with but it’s another version of a store. I feel these are pretty benign

Wouldn’t it be like everything else, default keyboard shortcuts that can be easily overridden? Personally I hope they go with rectangle’s CTRL+OPT just because it’s seared into my muscle memory now

Orion Browser does something similar, I wonder if they make enough or if it’s subsidized by Kagi search?

It’s also in Safari and I’m guessing Edge as well. It’s not a big deal, I just get surprised by Firefox the first time I try to open a private window

I recall reading on HN that road wear (and therefore tire wear) is a fourth power of the weight on the axle. So a little bit more is a lot more. Edit: I’m too late, already noted by Sparkle-san below

I bet most cars are used most times in traffic, hence the traffic. Although you can try to get through it avoiding the brakes, ’round here if you leave any kind of gap ahead of you, you’re gonna be slamming on the brakes instead of graduall

This is a popular misconception according to the askhistorians faq. I don’t think you’ve ever had beer either, thinking that you could possibly replace water with it.

I always joked around that Firefox made the incognito shortcut CTRL-Shift-P for Porn mode (I really wish they followed the “standard” keyboard shortcut)

Don’t they usually try at least to have a domain that sorta looks like the original? It’s not like they use phishing.bigbank.abc.xyz - the domain isn’t supposed to look suspicuous

Something very interesting: I live in southern Ontario and when I randomly opened up reddit.com in a private Firefox window the night before last (testing a low ram VM, needed some heavy js site) the top of the homepage was a sticky post fr

Another article on HN previously showed that while sales aren’t down, number of visits are. Kind of the motto of the 2020s: people spending the same but getting less

Some people on reddit are upset with Loblaws Everyone else is just checking the weekly specials and shopping where the deals are, Loblaws stores included, if they give a shit about grocery prices at all.

Their margins actually did go up but it’s kinda hilarious when you see it — they’re squeaking out ~3% these days while it was a razor thin 1.x% before. Yup that’s an extra buck fitty on your $100 of groceries
