   May I use your letsnotencrypt button on my retro-friendly website? Where should I link it to?

   This. We bought a small EV a little over a year ago, and I expect our personal gasoline reduction is close to 50% -- easily more than half our trips are now in the EV. However, the grid in our area is primarily coal-based, so I'm aware

   Slightly OT: what framework is in use for that website? The responsive approach looks a lot like a modern version of Enyo ( https://sdk.webosarchive.org/enyo2sampler/ )

   I don't think that's true. We were imagining them, and even trying to build them -- the hardware just wasn't capable of it. Newton, Palm and Handspring showed us the way, and those platforms died on the journey there. Apple a

   Long-time Mac user here -- by that I mean, I use my Macs for a long time. Long, long after Apple supports them. My Mac Pro 4,1 is a daily driver. I replaced my 2011 MacBook Pro with a ThinkPad only this year. I have strong feelings on this,

    Perhaps just personal websites that are not legible will have to die... Although I do have to admit, this page had a very GeoCities vibe to it. Needs a few more animated GIFs, though.

    Its a dying industry, trying desperately to scrape and claw the last remnants of revenue out of a dwindling customer base. In the fight for survival, they've all gotten mean and nasty. As others have said, stick to laser -- and prefera

    Pick up a Brother color laser. They are one of the least hostile to their customers, and their prices are reasonable. Buy new if you have to, but if you can find one a few years old in good condition, I find their older models to be the mos

    I love everything about this post, and the (short) discussion here. I worked out some complex PHP user-agent detection on my websites to serve HTTPS to newer machines, and HTTP to older ones. I instinctively knew Apache2/nginx should b

    I love this -- any chance of getting a backward compatible playback page on the web server? I can browse content on my old devices, but HTML5 video player isn't supported. It would be cool to fall back to something simpler (like a redi

    I think this mostly answers your question: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31611208 The other part is the community. People who had backed up their libraries. Devices found on eBay that still had a bunch of apps on the

    It takes a little work, but the restored SDK has info on getting the official emulator up and running on VirtualBox (you'll need an older version to create the VM, which is linked)

    Fair questions! Long before my time, but just before the shutdown, the community scraped the catalog metadata -- its been available in a well-known IPK since at least 2012. Because of how apps were built for webOS, and the amazing community

    The newer versions apparently got very heavily ad-laden, but I agree - my webOS 4 TV is great!
