That percentage sounds about right to me. I've seen comments on blogs from ~10-15 years ago, that continue to have spam posted to them. The first 2-3 comments will be relevant, but comments 50-100 may have a single relevant comment alo

I'm actually quite liking the looks of your service, and I'll probably start using it soon. I have only a few suggestions for additional features: 1. Check for open ports, to allow for non-websites (is my ssh server running) 2. ic

If you're looking for a lightweight, non indexed launcher (ie, needs to be configured with names and paths), I can't recommend SlickRun enough. It uses incredibly few resources, and can display free memory, etc.

It will enrage you to find out that some sites actually track the value, and if more than one character changes per keystroke, it'll reset the value. It's rare, but I have seen it.

That's why I use tampermonkey/userscripts. Make a script that removes disabled property from all form elements in the page, and set it to run when the document finishes loading on every website, then disable it so you can turn it

If you're hosting _private_ git repos, why bother with a hosted solution at all? Why not just use ssh remotes?

I personally use fb2k with the dlna add-on for music streaming, with bubbleupnp server in the middle (mostly out of laziness; I used to stream to a Google cast device, though now I just have my stereo plugged directly into my PC). Bubbleupn

Speaking about fair dice, I have a vague memory of reading somewhere that as dice get used, dirt builds up in the pips, causing them to be slightly off-balance. I cannot find anything about this online at all, so it might well be complete n

I think you mean a small, not scary warning that occurs all of once, only the very first time you install an app. I install apps from fdroid on a regular basis, and there's just a prompt, with options to cancel or install (see [0] for

The simpler device is cheaper as less likely to break. A barrel charger is far simpler than a USB charger and cable.

Anywait is the tool I've always wanted, and implemented in pretty much the same way I would do so. However, besides waiting on a pid, I occasionally wait on `pidof` instead, to wait on multiple instances of the same process, running un

`cat` will begin output immediately. `tac` buffers the entire input in order to reverse the line order before printing it. Piping through tac ensures EOF is reached, while piping through tac a second time puts the lines back in order

You may want to make it more obvious this is a native Mac app, not cross-platform. I ignored the window decorations and shortcuts (like I usually do), as those are commonly shown under the assumption of the developer's preferred OS; th

There's plenty of simple webservers around. I used to use one at school that was a single (likely self-extracting zip) exe file that ran Apache on the given port; the document root was configurable, but defaulted to the relative path .

If gitlab allows uploads by dropping files outside of the textarea, it might be a bug related to that (either in the browser or more likely in gitlab). This is standard for dragging urls or files into the browser from outside when the websi

Do some airlines not provide details, or is that some other issue? I'm seeing a flight 3C7601 that shows -1 passengers and -1 engines. Same for 4007f3 from British airways and 394a06 from air France. A8060C seems to have something in t

It's not that I don't appreciate it. It's that I _don't care_. I've only got 16gb of ram, and much of that is used by things I actually care about, like airsonic, a Linux VM, fb2k, etc (yes, my PC is my home sever).

Nvidia had at least two generations of Android tablets. Intel had several as well. These aren't smartphones, but they did have options for cellular modems, and there's really not much difference. I've got two tablets at hom
