I'm a Gentoo user myself so from a personal perspective I don't see any problem, but in a professional environment it's another thing I have to do - Install (and update) Go from somewhere because it's obviously not in

The one thing that bothers me (which is not Caddy's fault at all) is the plugin system. If I understand correctly, I have to recompile Caddy for every plugin I want to use, right? Sounds like a limitation with Go which is really unfort

Uhm, yes, you're absolutely right, I have missunderstood you and I absolutely agree with what you're saying. An open client with a secure encryption is always preferred, but I doubt we will see Telegram become that one because the

MTProto isn't considered secure[0], so I'd rather trust someone (Moxie) who actually developed open source encryption[1] that is considered secure. I'm not blindly following Moxie here but I'd argue that it's in h

CentOS is (and always was) literally a rebuild of RHEL, so what's your point exactly?

This is FUD. A Red Hat employee developed an init system and Red Hat chose to use it for their Linux distributions (which they have every right to do). They didn't force other projects to adopt it, it's actually solving problems f

While Seafile seems to work, the developers have been kinda sloppy both with licensing[1] and security[2]. The answers on both issues really make me question their integrity and ability to deliver a secure piece of software. [1] https:&#x2

I'd like to respectfully disagree here. IMHO, killing user processes after logout is totally reasonable and something I would expect to happen on desktop computers. On servers this might be a bit more difficult, but I like the idea of

For everyone who (like me) wondered what happened to "Roundcube Next", they released a statement 8 days ago[1] about it. Sounds like they had personal problems getting in the way. Glad to see the project is still alive. [1] https

It's not only the name of the tarball after downloading it. RPM SPEC files require me to pass a full URL to the tarball's upstream source[1]: > Source0: The full URL for the compressed archive containing the (original) pristine

by embik 10y ago
I don't disagree, but it just feels off to tell a packaging tool to rename a tarball because the default name is not verbose enough to even identify the tarball.

I wasn't expecting to see Microsoft being a gold sponsor in 2015. Good on them. Glad to see The Core Infrastructure Initiative supporting important projects beyond Linux as well.

I'm irritated by the loading screen and the enormous list of JavaScript pulled in. That's a simple static page using a few css animations. Is adding bloat considered "modern webdesign"?

And in turn, I have to apologize to you as well because I can see how my comment could be viewed as arguing against you. I didn't think you were defending Apricity at all, I was kinda trying to re-inforce your point by pointing out how

To be fair, he not only put up his code on GitHub, he also created a semi-professional looking and analogously worded website. That's not something that is posted to HN by "mistake". It sounds more like a startup than a hobby

I'm really sorry for being overly snarky, but where should one start contributing to this giant mess? It's basically a few packages packaged up in a questionable manner (with license violations[1] in the past), none of which are

The difference between openSUSE and Fedora seems to be that openSUSE is based on SLES and Fedora is the base for RHEL. That may be different approaches, but I feel like it has very comparable results. Fedora is a community project heavi

How does "uses SLE packages" and "kept up to date" work together? I'm seriously confused because that seems to be exclusive to me. For example, an more up-to-date kernel package isn't really derived from SLE an

Have you used recent versions of KDE (on openSUSE, for example) or GNOME (on Fedora)? Because Ubuntu (or Unity, to be more precise) did not really change since 12.04 and largerly used GNOME applications anyway. The things you actually can a

You are right, but let's not forget that Windows has very cryptic names and acronyms too (visible in process names and mmc snap-ins, for example). But they are much more hidden away than on Linux. I think that's the key differen
