I appreciate someone actually checking things for themselves, instead of just joining the rage party.

Also just disk indexing which exists to make your user experience better. Not everything is malicious.

I don't understand why they don't just ship a huge set of fonts by default. I'm probably missing some licensing bullshit, but look at Google Fonts and all the amazing fonts there. They're called open source fonts. Is the

I really like asciiflow except for its arrow handling. Not sure why, but drawing the following appears to be impossible: ─┬─ │ ▲ │ ─┴─ Instead you will always get: ─┬─ │ ▼ │ ─┴─ Even u

Indeed, and if things had turned out that way I would've happily kept my subscription and paid for such content to watch it legally. Instead they fragmented, and there is no way that I will be figuring out which of the dozen subscripti

No thanks, my side projects exist to bring me joy. Corrupting them by trying to monetize them would take away all the fun.

No. If you want to "learn from it", you should do whatever you want that works for you. You're not our dad.

Don't pretend you've never been vulgar when upset. The most valuable reviews are those that are honest.

Even better, just shoot all undesirables. Why do we need prisons anyway, and what is rehabilitation? Just kill everyone the second they break the law, so they'll all go away. This outcome is _clearly_ the best for all concerned.

You will destroy their social life and make them outcasts. A smartphone is absolutely necessary to stay in touch with friends nowadays, everyone is using various messaging apps.

Right, I want to hook this up to my existing postgres/mysql database with existing schema.

First of all, read only functionality would be good enough for me. Especially if it can read from a database view which could be backed by my other tables. I often deal with user databases managed by custom software which we also want to le

Any thought about supporting SQL databases for the user backend with configurable queries? Would be awesome to be able to take an existing SQL database of users and use that to serve LDAP authentication queries.

I thought that was American MO? Ignore the laws of any countries you don't like while imposing your own?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtJJC0nWs9s is a pretty good explanation of how this works.

Did you click the link and look at the sales page? Did you see an option for a 4k display? Or does the page explicitly say "1920 by 1080 resolution"? How could something be any more obvious than that?

Don't worry, it won't be legal for Apple to void the warranty for this.

What happened to personal agency? Let people make mistakes, you don't need to infantilize them.

You can fearmonger all you want, but this is a good thing: People should actually own their devices.

I know it, and it's the way to go after making backups. It's not that hard, but not trivial either. You have to install the old & new postgres versions alongside each other, shut the database down, etc. I've done it many

Yeah, super easy. Let me just shut down my database server for 30 hours so I can do a dump and load.

True, but they'll feel it in their pocket eventually when people move to alternatives that do support it.
