One of the reasons I use xterm is it's beautiful default bitmap fonts, every character distinct and easy to understand, no matter if it's 1 i l | or I, no matter if it's 0 O o or Ø. The extra flexibility of is not worth the c

I don't, I don't think it matters at all. The attitude however, towards someone actively working for free to make your product better and wider-used, is what makes me say this. The actively working against someone trying to make y

Oh god yes please! We're 4 people per office, and while this is tolerable, I really imagine I'd be much more productive (and less annoying) if I had my own space.. I know I can just work from home, but thing is, I like going to wo

I've often wondered about that experience, but I've not really had the chance to try it out yet.

wow, hdmi really wants to die that badly ?

This struck me, is it so special? That's just the regular "eyes closed for a minute or two" mode for me ? It's interesting how we all seem capable of the same experiences but some have a really amazing ability to ignore

This looks very much like the typescript formatter we use...

Before I understood the true depth of mans incompetence, I'd have attributed this to evil Americans keeping the best to themselves. But now I just feel sorry for both Haitians and Americans because they're probably eating the same

Oh this is absolutely wonderful! This is also the reason you can't have any sort of serious conversation with the LLMs, they've become copyright-paranoid social justice warriors.

I find myself guilty of deep-diving into headfi-territory audiophilia once in a while, this time it got to me as well and I started thinking how neat it'd be to finally do it and get some high-end replacement for my 250 ohm dt990 pro c

It's an interesting problem we have with file formats.. Emulation saves us, but at which point will we need to run emulators in emulators to reach the documents ? I suppose it's still somewhat easier than trying to understand som

Unless your hobby is making money, I don't think you'll make money trying to make money.. Except maybe by working an actual job. It seems most side-projects that turn into money-generating projects are made by people who got some

come on, any change in the environment that can happen by one guy with a shovel over a few days, could happen by any random weather event anyway, that could have happened by the wind blowing just the right way..

No, they should tell me what went wrong, in enough detail that I can understand it and determine the cause of the error so I know whether there is anything I can do differently to get around it or fix it.

I was thinking the same, it's very interesting which way the arrow points. Am I saying that because I drink an enormous amount of coffee and really don't want to stop? Yes. But also.. because I hope my high coffee drinking is beca

That was amazingly disturbing. I'm generally not disturbed by my noisy visual field, but this.. Giant halo around the breathing dot, as the contrast faded in and out the roundness started to disintegrate and as it changed size while fa

> Brave is run by a homophobic, anti-vax crypto clown. I won’t dignify it here with a link. I don't know Brave, I don't know anything about its author (nor do I care to). But this strikes me as unserious.. It's an article

I wonder if it somehow has something to do with 5 good shows being exclusively available on 5 separate streaming services, and nobody wanting to pay for 5 streaming services to watch 5 shows ?

I think it's relatively useful when you don't take the approach of blindly trusting it or expecting it to be able to do stuff it can't do. I'm getting the most out of it when I'm doing stuff so new to me that I don&

I'm still self-hosting. I have a server in my home, on my private internet connection, it runs postfix and dovecot. It works fine. But beware: Sending mails become a hassle as your ISP might block outgoing mail on port 25, you'll

The must microphone is a great example. I'm often finding it hard to find out whether that type of input means "change state to this" or "this is the state". Most confusing is when the text changes along with the ch

This was my thought too, ofc. it's not a popular idea these days that genetics and heredity might have some bearing on success, but it does seem worthwhile looking into.. Anecdote time, I identified the reward-seeking behaviour in my p

Give it a bit of time, and mainframe become the new cloud, but only after a cycle of "everything on site[1]". This is not an industry that learns from the past when scrap can be acquired by relentless fashion grifting. [1] Edited

Interesting perspective, my own is the opposite.. Discrete GPUs have a thermal advantage, because they don't have to share heat-sinking capacity with the CPU.. My Graphics card certainly spews out _A_LOT_ more heated air than the CPU,

I used OpenVZ for a long time before Docker came along, it was certainly nicer than what I did previously (run everything right on the host) but, of the two, I'd pick Docker every time. Dockerfiles, images, layers, thinking of containe
