That's not true of all houses and especially not true of cheap apartments, whose residents would benefit the most from saving on heating.

And this could have all been solved from the beginning if they just named it "Issue9" as so many proposed.

This kind of project might see more success if it was made to work on Android devices. I'm cautiously optimistic that once KDE works on Wayland and Wayland works with Android drivers (or there are good quality mainline video drivers fo

One case I know of where eval is used extensively is Python's namedtuple function from the collections module. It generates a class that behaves like a tuple, except the positions are named, so kind of like a read-only struct. Python h

If that were the only consequence, this wouldn't be so problematic. But it makes linking to anything something you have to pay for with the author having no way to opt out. So any time you post a link you have to pay a fee, which is co

That's intriguing. Can you comment on power usage compared to what a similar x86_64 would get you? Also does it support ECC RAM?

They would send a few expendable soldiers and later on observe the effects of radiation sickness. Then they would try using the stuff as a weapon and discover you can't clean up after throwing it at the enemy. A couple of cities would

Unrelated, but I would like to note that you shouldn't use subpixel anti-aliasing in text in images, especially ones that will be shown by a web-browser. You never know whether the user's screen is rotated or not; if it has three

Or, you could render to greyscale texture at 3x resolution and then scale down the texture with subpixel precision when rendering on screen?

Why wouldn't one write something like that directly as an httpd or nginx module? You get fastest possible C http server, together with a very good utility library and just need to write your own routing and handling functions. I mean,

That's just like, your opinion, man. More eloquently, I prefer the regular version. I prefer having all the interface already presented to me rather than hidden away. The one thing you could say is that the mobile version restricts its

Or if you're even less lucky, PulseAudio still requires you to mute the "system sounds" thing because once skype starts, you get persistent noise out of the audio jack, after which you try to email Lennart following the guide

I see, thanks. Obviously any time you can delete things you can be forced to do so, leading to censorship, but I think the tradeoff is worth it. Meaning, letting people choose to not serve content they don't like will lead to more node

You're a bit too aggressively negative, hence the downvotes, I guess. But I concur - as someone who can't afford to buy a PS4 or other current consoles (especially given how there's just a couple of exclusive games coming out

So what happens when someone uploads illegal content (like torture videos, snuff films, child pornography, the US constitution on some campuses)? Can clients define blocklists for things they don't want to store?

I think this would be a bit better for interactive cases. Note: written just now, I haven't actually felt the need for this safeguard... yet. rmrf() { (echo "The following files are going to be deleted!!!"

Would there then be a market for canned/frozen/otherwise preserved lobster? So one could set up a factory right on the shore, buy lobster at 2-4$/pound, then immediately cook it and have it ready to ship in inexpensive ways?

I agree with you. Perhaps the IRS could have guidelines and a list of acceptable licenses to use, so that IBM won't come up with their own open-source-but-not-really license. Edit: hah, I wanted to reply to parent, but must have miscli

I think you can disable subpixel antialiasing and tweak sharpness for DirectWrite like you could for (Un)ClearType.

Then you break copy-paste. Or maybe we could add locale markers in unicode, then encode the different symbols as <locale><codepoint>. It will only take something like up to 12 bytes per character in UTF-8, no big deal, right?

That kind of game is part of S.G. Tatham's portable puzzles collection (available on everything, including toasters running NetBSD). You can either solve a normal NxN board where each tile flips the 4 adjacent tiles, or a hard (general

Around here it's "it doesn't matter if I suffer, as long as my neighbour suffers more than I do". It's even a saying. The experiment seems ripe for gaming though - just have the control group gradually lose producti
