Very nice design and best thing, it's not an Electron app. I will definitely try this reader.

To you that live in parts of the world that have snakes, do they affect you in any way? There are no snakes where I live, and I'm extremely uncomfortable just thinking about the possibility of one entering your home or seeing one. Imag

The only problem with using Alpine as a desktop distribution, is that security updates will sometimes take months to be available, and this is only because the team working on Alpine is very small. If this wasn't an issue, I would not

I guess that Devuan is also affected by this, so does anyone know if updated installation images will be available?

Alpine has a separate Writer package, Debian has a separate Writer package and probably many more distros. Same thing with QEMU, a separate package for every architecture, separate GUI packages etc. I like so many things about Void, but the

I have been using Void for months on the desktop, and I like it very much, especially the package manager, but something that REALLY annoys me is how bloated every package seems to be. Maybe you only want to use Writer from Libreoffice, but

Can't help thinking on Winamp. Llama, it really whips the flu's ass.

It seems like the attack is not completely quiet as an error is printed while installing a modified package, either from compromised mirror or by man-in-the-middle: ERROR: ${package_name}: BAD signature Remote code execution will h

I disassembled my laptop and removed both camera and microphone before I began using it. I did the same with my tablet.

Thanks, I will take a look at that extension. After reading the documentation for mpv I found the options --screen=<default|0-32> and --fs-screen=<all|current|0-32> these are used for selecting a specific screen.

See, this is the problem with the mindset of many web developers. You point out several things that makes this website work well, so you actually answers your own question, but I read between the lines that you think HN has to be "mode

I often look at the wiki pages for Arch as they are really good, but I will not use systemd so Arch is not for me.

Yes this is probably the problem, and I think the maintainers do everything they can. I was not writing the post to criticise Alpine as I really like it, but people need to take the missing security updates into consideration before they st

I actually switched to Void Linux after having used Debian on the desktops for some time last year and I will say it's a near perfect Linux distro.

I have used Alpine Linux for a long time even before they switched to musl libc, and I really liked it. However, I have now stopped using it because of the situation with security updates. Very often critical security issues will not be pat

Previously, if you created the inbox e.g. joe@mailinator.com an "Alternate Inbox" name would be generated e.g. M8R-yrtvm01@mailinator.com. You could hand out this address and the mail would still end up at joe@mailinator.com. This

Very useful service that I have used for many years. However, in the updated version of Mailinator I can't find the "Alternate Inbox Name" anymore. Do anyone know why this function was removed?

A year ago or so I switched to Void Linux from Debian and my conclusion so far is that Void is a near perfect Linux distribution. Stable, simple and systemd free. The package manager is simply a pleasure to use. My only critique is that mos
