   Thanks, for the answer. I find the PDF export a valid option too, but did not notice that it actually exports an PDF via the save button. Keep up the great work :-)

   I like it, but is there a presentation mode? So far I found fullscreen and zen-mode, but it was still showing the slide overview. It would be awesome if it would be using the JS API for presentations!

   Being a big AoE2 fan myself (pre-ordered the original version back in the day), I think you should try it. For me, there is one major downside: The camera. I really don't like the 3D camera. I think it could be worse. So you can actual

   This past week, I witness Steam/Proton making it possible to play Age of Empires 4 just 4 days after its official release (and 2 of those days were Saturday and Sunday). That is just awesome.

   My understanding was, that the initial argument was about Bash as a programming language and most aspects discussed were aspects were Bash is no different than POSIX: 1. Return values of subshells 2. Clean design 3. being a "real"

   Basically, yes. Most arguments expressed here apply to Bash as well as to other POSIX compatible shells. Even the trick from the initial blog post is also works for POSIX shell AFAIK (didn't check). Definitely working is something like

   At the time federation was not that special. E-Mail was federated and Jabber/XMPP was federated too. So it was expected, that the successor (as which Wave was marketed) of e-mail was federated too. The real time aspects, on the other h

    Wasn't Wave the cloud service that promised to be a federated application, but delivered the open source server very late (like after the failure/shutdown was announced)? Comparing anything that is not federated with Wave sounds o

    Well, if it would be just bad, why do we still use it? Why don't we use e.g. Python (which is a much better designed programming language)? Some reasons why POSIX shells are great: - they are part of POSIX (a Standard which is implemen

    If you care about performance, you better don't write shell scripts. The typical task of a shell script is to start programs and connect them in a meaningful way. This is in itself a pretty expensive task performance wise. So arguing a

    Sure, waiting is an option. But I wonder which other options are available in the long term. We talked about stockpiling. But how about rearranging the supply chains? Distribute the production of products? Shortening the supply chains? Esta

    Even if you are right, what would be your solution? I mean, the problem is not that we lack transparency, but that we have run out of options to fight the bottlenecks. Having some stockpiles as buffers would be one options to fight the prob

    There are three dimensions: 1. UX: most of the time kernel updates don't affect the user experience. However, from time to time there are scheduler updates which can have positive effects. 2. Security: Being able to run the kernel with

    The difference is that in the backend you have control over the runtime environment. In the frontend you don't. However, because frontend devs know that, they have build tools to support them. It started with jquery as an cross browser

    Given that the kernel still identifies as 3.0.101, my guess is that they just backported some features from 4.x and applied them to the ancient kernel ;-) I am not so sure that qualifies as a 4.1 in terms of Android support. I think the dis

    Thank you for looking up that ROM, as I might want to try it out. However, you are also proving my point, even that ROM with Android 11 is still running the old 3.0.101 Linux kernel. You can see it in the video at the last row: https:&#x2F
