Browser -> fullscreen. End of problem. Tabs in the browser window are the switch point. Terminator isn't for everyone. But it can be for anyone.

I hit the scene a decade before you, in the 8-bit world, when all there was, was empty RAM. You had to fill it yourself, or there was simply nothing. Especially for the lesser platforms of the time that were competing for attention, this w

What I really love about vim lately: Termdebug. Its such a joy to have cscope bindings and gdb-based debugging direction within vim itself. This has been a joy to re-discover after forgetting that vim has a great integrated debugger now. I

The US does NOT prosecute its own war crimes. That is the point of the ICC in the first place: you cannot trust the war criminals to bring justice to their society.

Disclaimer: I work on IoT and build things with little speakers and Blinky lights on them. Solution: Curtains. As in, room-filling curtains, so people can do private things in an Air-b'n-box.

It would be neat if it could power an 8-bit emulation for 100 years .. think about it: we want to keep old computing platforms around. We make an emulator, power it with this, and drop it out in the desert somewhere, guaranteeing that th

That is actually pretty astonishing .. so it was set up to catch the cabalist spy empire that Snowden warned about, and it seems it has snared something .. one can only hope this will be prosecuted in the public sphere.

Well, the sculpture is a fiction, and this AI generated image is a fiction - what's wrong with acknowledging that these fictions are all we have? Life is a collection of these facsimiles.
