Not that I'd possibly remember the details, but in 1992 / 1993, during my freshman year in High School (living in 312 as well), I visited a new HS friend at his house and he showed me his array of 6 or 8 modems running a BBS. By t

We shouldn't be asking this of clients any more. Build the site with SSL on all pages and either require the client buys a cert or implement Let's Encrypt. But at this stage, it makes no sense to make it optional, even for non-c

I recently switched to Firefox on Android as well, specifically for uBlock Origin support, which has significantly improved browsing overall. Only issue I have is that default apps won't open for links. Otherwise I've been very

For me, personally, it doesn't take anything away from the music, but it certainly takes plenty from the man. And if we're going to discuss the history, it's just as important as any other trivia that colors the story.

Thanks for this. I was very happy to read that they're making non-destructive editing a priority. > Things like non-destructive editing are required by pretty much all users — photographers, designers, desktop publishing engineers,

You're absolutely right. The bar I'm setting is probably too high, but it's not set from anything beyond my desire to get work done. Literally: "nothing personal, but I can't use this"

I appreciate GIMP for what it is, and use it on the occasion that I can't quickly do what i need with ImageMagick or pixlr. But I'd gladly pay for Photoshop and other Adobe tools if they compiled natively on linux. One problem wi

My issue with Gatsby, after maybe 5 or 6 attempts at reading it, was that I could never bring myself to give a damn about ANY of the characters. It found it impossible to relate to any single one of them, and thus couldn't bring mysel

I generally clear everyone out in a rental as well. I should start letting the rental company know, thoug. That's a great idea. Fortunately, Android asks if you want to sync contacts, to which I always reply "No". It seems

If Bernie ended up with < 5% of the voters / delegates, I might be obliged to agree with you, but that's far from the end result. It seems he's far more in-line with the democratic party, according to the party itself, th

I'm not exactly sure how to find that the requirement of "paying DNC dues" is defensible. We're not talking about a local sports club. Don't get me wrong. While I supported Bernie, I feel he was outplayed in a mas

I imagine there could be an interesting means of moving the playhead along with your skimming, so when you highlight a block of text (as I do, habitually), the video would play through the selection and pause at the end. I'd love to u
