Kinda feels like DRM did it's main job of preventing interoperability. Funny how much bad tech is still "good enough"

Getting older has consequences. Flying isn't cheap, the average private pilot is just under 50, and with the prices of planes, fule, maintenance, and storage costs add up. And that's after you've already dropped over 10K just

Love fish, it's my default shell on my machine where I have a UI, Linux or OSX. I do wish there was better bash compatibility though, it keeps me from using fish on remote hosts, and some of my work tools are not fish compatible. I usu

You should pay attention to the fatality rate for gliders. Some of the worst in maned aviation. It's considered 3-4x more dangerous than driving based on the annual fatality rate. Not that it isn't cool, it just won't become

I think it's time we collectively mature past the point where taking unsubstantiated pot-shots at tools we don't "love" is seen as a value add to commentary. In this case calling k8s a "nightmare" is a strong r

12s of your time is the cost of compromised morals? That seems p cheap and unfortunately indicative.

I really struggled gaining much from that presentation format. It was confusing to follow for me, and possibly due to my lack of XP in the domain but I don't think I left feeling like the title question was answered.

Do you pick your hammer and wrench based off what color it is or how well it performs for the cost? When things become price optimized, there really is little left to differ on because of the physics of cars, much like the physics of hammer

Cars should look the same, in fact id be ok if there were only a handful to choose from, like a small passenger car, a larger van, and then a truck and that's it.

I have used this in LineageOS and honestly loved the feature. The ability to send higher quality audio to stuff like my car stereo where I don't have any support for 3P codecs. Also headphones can really benefit from this. The UX needs

Isn't that why you would use a letter and post system?

Not at all, a user is a phone number. Do you have a recommendation on how they would prevent fraud and abuse w/o using a phone number while also maintaining the same level of low friction?
347.
by btreecat 3y ago
Seems like the right level of tradeoff to prevent abuse and enabling privacy, did you have a different expectation in terms of balance?
348.
by btreecat 3y ago
Because your account is currently your phone number, so if they want to open the service to a limited number of power users, it makes sense to restrict it to folks who already are signal users, IMO.

That's one diff between git and Hg. Hg likes to consider the history "sacred" so there's no "cleaning up your commit" via squashing/cherry picking. This is actually superior in most cases. Being able to fo

Bookmarks were a wonderful feature and I used them all the time for release workflow. It was basically like tags in docker. Hg was indeed better than git, especially in the early days. But as git added features, made sane default choices mo

If your not confident enough in your statement to leave out such a heavy lifting qualifier like "might" you shouldn't make the claim at all. Either make the claim and come with recipes or leave it out.

>- Docker might not cut it, we live in an era when a fully virtualized instance boots up in 3 seconds on a M1 Mac so you might as well just use a full OS instead of a container This sounds like FUD to me, but then again you can't us

What even defines "swearing" and what benefits do you gain from adhering to an arbitrary limit on your word bank?

That would work, if I knew which groups to ask for which pictures and which ones I downloaded from other sources. But I also lost more than just photos, I lost conversations, downloads, and can't take new pictures or send the ones I ha

I'm currently impacted by this bug. My grandfather just passed away and the family has been trading pictures in group messages. I've nowost access to my copies of those images. Yes, it's my fault I hadn't backed up yet.

I smirked a bit when I saw the URL for hosting but it makes sense if you actually want other people to use/discover/contribute to your project. Neat idea OP, I am curious about the choice of using fossil as the base. Is there some

Claiming there's a problem "with regulations" and it's also "the government's fault" is like saying "I'm hungry, have access to food, but actually doing the work to prepare the food and then eat
