I'm not sure what you are implying. That it is hard? It is only a single line added to the `mailcap` file: text/html; firefox '%s' &; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; needsterminal; After that's in pl

I also host my own email server. For the first several years, I didn't have a spam solution since I wasn't getting any. After it started coming (not in terrible amounts but enough to become a nuisance), I set up rspamd. It works n

In addition to what the other comments are saying, it's not at all clear that maintaining a suitable fork of Chromium would be less work than maintaining a completely different browser implementation. Google is clearly trying to drive

Are we forgetting that Mozilla was a non-profit and that the Corporation was spun off relatively recently to allegedly better support the non-profit's Foundation's mission? In the sense of that mission, all those interested in a d

There's no reason to think this will impact Rust at all. Rust is now spread far beyond Servo and Mozilla is no longer employing most of the Rust developers. This has been the case for several years, AFAIU.

My point was that Rust's compile-time machinery and conventions allow you to avoid using referencing counting smart pointers like `Rc` in almost all cases. What you call trivial patterns of allocation is in fact the prevailing type of

So just aggressively back up versions you like as they are released. If you don't save it for yourself, you can't guarantee it won't eventually disappear.

Yes, I think it only makes sense to learn vim if you're going to spend a lot of time using it actively. I use vim for almost all programming I do, so that made it really easy to burn it in my brain forever.

Yes, but the other way around: you debit the "Depreciation" expense account (since it is the sink, it increases) and credit the asset account (it is the source, it decreases).
