If your goal is to reduce your attack surface, then yes, even a modem without a SIM is too much. The modem in your phone isn't like a modem from the days of dialup, it's more like a cable modem. More often than not, the modem is i

The Steamdeck's APU (and others using the same tech) are becoming more common, not sure if those count as 'desktop' or 'console' though...

I didn't know of the man, but after a quick google search I know his work. My condolences.

pbcopy and pbpaste are what turned me on to this use case. pbcopy ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub is so handy.

Yup, Dart itself is an ok language (and has improved dramatically in the time I've used it), but the tooling around Dart and Flutter are what make me stay. It's all fairly standard, but complete, and it basically always just works

Or Unity, their flavor of C# discouraged properties for a long time, it does support them now, though.

Looks like the GUI uses WinForms, which means you won't be able to build it on linux, I would wager. You may, however, be able to run an already built version of it through Wine.

Exactly this. I realized that a lot of how I use objects fits in nicely with FP patterns, but when I started looking into FP "best practices" the number of times the best practice is "Replicate this exact behavior from a &#x2

People bitch about the Android kernel and its lack of upstreaming because we get stuck with perfectly serviceable devices that are dangerous to use because they don't get updates 3 years after we bought them. Forking a project with you

Except they do. Google Pay / Wallet is built in Flutter, and so was Stadia. It's a bit nonsensical to think that they'd rewrite every existing app they have in Flutter, even if it is their own toolkit. Google doesn't bel

If you liked dart back then, you absolutely should check it out again today. It's improved greatly and easily has the best developer experience of any language I've ever used. Not to mention one of the most rapidly improving. Non-

30 vs 45 fps on my steam deck feels night and day different, it's amazing how much small jumps like that can help.

There is a web api for this: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Screen_Capt... There is also a proper macOS API for this, which they are skirting using by using this hack.

I mean, Microsoft should know that the browser's user agent is untrustworthy and should be using feature detection. They did do this on purpose, and it's a bad practice in the web industry.

There's gotta be a balance though. This is basically fucking me out of being able to be on my meds, which dramatically improves my quality of life. Finding a new doctor to treat my ADHD is nearly impossible. I've done and continue

You took the words out of my mouth. I'm very curious to see where this language goes. It's a big project, but so is an OS, and they're doing just fine there. Even if SerenityOS or Jakt are never a household name, they're

Yup, and Apple already showed their hand with that too. The new M1s have a complex, but open, boot process. There's already a tailor made linux distro that can boot on the M1s, so it's not like it's not technically possible t

Our future is fucked. There isn't a point to it. We don't make enough money to develop meaningful savings, so many people in my generation (Millenials) just don't see the damn point. We won't ever have a house, so where

I can think of a use case or 2. Thermal printers (for those wanting old timey unix line printing interfaces) or e-ink displays in console mode.

For extra fun, if while it's sleeping it's connected to a Display Port or USB-C display, it'll wake it up everytime it wakes the wifi for its 'power naps'. Disabling them in System Prefs doesn't change this.

Checkout Tow-Boot, it's not 100% there yet, but I'm using it to EFI boot nixos on a pinephone, granted it's the Alwinner one, not the rockchip one, but still.

Which is why the goal isn't to make everyone rich. It's to end poverty. Those aren't the same thing, exactly. Think like, Star Trek. They have ended poverty, but it's not by making everyone wealthy.

I need someone to make a `Q` wrapper that amalgamates all of them. And if that's already taken by a common utility, I vote we name it deLancie, instead.

by chris37879 4y ago
This exactly. I think JQ's problem in this regard is further compounded because its query language just doesn't feel like anything else most people have used, I've certainly never come across anything quite like it, anyway.

There is! netatalk on linux is the package you need for that, and it's still built in to BSD, I believe. now weather that package still speaks the older versions of the protocol, who can say. Interestingly, a challenge you would have w
