Wikipedia is too often the final source of truth for people. While I'm not saying it's intentionally wrong very often, but accidental wrongs get repeated elsewhere. It happens especially with things like the Vatican flag ("Su

Simple: there's no softmod for my Switch and I don't want to risk a hardware mod. I can't even copy the games I own to my PC.

Even without Steam, you could use Syncthing for your Dolphin-emu data.

In general, I'm not sure what the idea of putting Dolphin on Steam was supposed to gain. First, I have a hard time conceiving why I'd even want to manage it from Steam, but aside from that, it seems like it'll only attract at

You could maybe build and run User-Mode Linux on FreeBSD, and run that in a jail. That's pretty close to your own interpretation of "Linux kernel in a jail" But to be real: that's obviously not what was meant. If someone

AT&T v BSDi had a large hand in that outcome of fates. It put the legality of BSD code in all its places into doubt for many years. Ironically, just a few years later, SCO thought "hey that was a good idea" and did it to Linux

I think if you can afford to build a rocket, you can afford to build a computer capable of running Chromium. Average people need not apply.

Hey, when selling a toolkit/framework, they've gotta spin the data in their favor as much as possible. If I was in charge of Qt marketing, I'd do the same.

I still do. It's hard to force myself to read it as "engine x"; "n-jinks" just looks like the natural way.

The "server OS" bit came from software assuming that Windows NT 5.2 would always be Server 2003, and it was an incorrect assumption. If they had instead read the ProductType key and based the SKU lockout on WinNT (home/workst

Windows XP and Server 2003 would mark the only time in Windows's history that the releases weren't fully synced up. (Unless you count Windows XP x64 Edition, which was the same OS files as Server 2003) I doubt any Windows administ

The feature additions already say it's not obeying semver. They could adopt it, but that'll mean the next release is 2.5, and if a feature is added, 2.6 after that.

by chungy 3y ago
With the continual feature additions in the 2.4.x series, I dare say the project fell into a versioning slump like Linux had in the 2.6.x series. Rather than being a fixed set, instead it was continually evolving, and Apache's "2.

That hasn't been true for at least 30 years. C++ is not a superset of C.

So more of a political situation. I live in the United States and there is no such similar concern. There is Tor if you do live in a country that practices censorship.

"Download blasphemous books"? That sounds like a highly specific use case, one I've never sought out. Why would it be inherently dangerous on Windows 95? I think there's some context or euphemism I'm missing.

Windows 2000 was build 2195, 2210 is only 15 days later. It's reasonable that branding was switched to Whistler pretty early, working on the next version, but this build is still extremely close to just being a plain Windows 2000.

XWayland is just an X server on top of Wayland. You could use it to run your whole desktop, but it's not the best use for it. It's really just great at running legacy applications without a Wayland version (especially old games an

While maintaining a free market, the course of action is to not reward people that park domains. Don't pay the asking price, just let them expire.

The movie in question doesn't even make the pejorative version of the word clear. The best you could come out of it is some weird fetish thing.

ZFS came first and Oracle started btrfs to try to clone it, before they acquired Sun anyway. btrfs has never really matured. It has only a fraction of the features of ZFS and generally a lot more unstable.
