I hate to harsh your mellow, but it was probably due to tobacco.

Are you being sarcastic?

In the first example, the idea is that the primary function of blinkers is to convey information. The law makes it mandatory to transmit that information with presumption that the information will be processed by human beings you are sharin

My n900 had usb charging trouble, and i had to get a "universal" battery charger, and alternative batteries. I have even recased it - it is surprisingly user-friendly in regards of repairs. However, i'm not nimble enough with

Oh god, good old n900... physical slide-out keyboard, touchscreen AND a stylus. Maemo rocked too, a solid debian-based OS. The hardware resources were a bit lacking, but -- best smartphone ever. And i'm not exaggerating. A modern-day e

No. It would only be ok if we rework the whole idea of law, base it not in tradition, but perfect rationality and objectiveness. Consider this: i change lanes at 2 a.m. on an empty road. There's no objective need to signal. I get fined

Yes, support direct torrent video streaming. Screw the fat cats. Long live Stallman, death to late stage capitalism computing!

Or don't consume DRMed content?

Well maybe we don't really need DRM? I mean, there are other sources of entertainment which do not threaten the FOSS

I would love to read more about these solutions and their benefits over Docker!

You know what's really funny? That even with that overly agressive spam filter, once in a while (once a quarter maybe), it somehow manages to miss obvious BuY@@NiGERiAn@@Vi@gRa-Cia1is type of emails... which, by the way, my morally out

The majority of the comments fail to miss one important thing: the cloud is not an abstract magical thingy which provides whatever you need whenever you need . It merely abstracts away the underlying infrastructure - on hardware, network

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Sorry, no compassion for daesh members, even less so for ones seeing nothing wrong with daesh actions. I actually also fail to see the parallels between antinazi dutch guerilla saving lives of jewish ch

Hm, my experience with OpenEBS has been... well, not that good. I set up a small cluster and tried a catastrophe scenario by just removing a node. Then i would either get processes hanging in D state, or blazingly fast i/o, which, upon

But I see your point, yes. Paperclip optimizer doesn't care if all people are killed as long as more paperclips are produced.

One could go even further and say that life can not be easily defined by a single term; hence the three marks of existence, which also seem to be reflected in a way in a western ethos. But even these three marks, in my humblest ans underedu

beautifully put! If I might add - the first noble truth is that life is suffering, to which, the noble eightfold path only offers a temporary remedy. It has been a long time since I've been on the path, but I still remember the beauty

Not to shit on the author of shorewall, but i have to disagree: iptables is not shit to work on. Nor is iproute2. Or any of the low-level tools. They all have a place in the world.

Thank you. I won't go into specifics, but surprisingly it was much better received than my claims that one can actually have self-hosted mail system that does not deliver your mail straight into gmails' spam folder.

Container ~= process which has been isolated from the host system using linux specific kernel features. If you launch systemd and all ubuntu services, yes, it will effectively run the whole os, otherwise, it's just a process like any o
