I think that you have the right to protect your rights at all costs. If your rights are being violated it's OK to reclaim it by returning the favor. If you don't believe it then there's a discussion to be had about if you eve

Yeah, if it's not clear cut - don't shoot anyone. I'm talking about people who are in the process of the crime when you caught them as it happened, not about some kind of vigilante track-them-down. As for shooting someone - I

I am not american, but I really wish it was legal to shoot thieves where I live. I see no moral issues with that act - it's really simple to justify. First - why should I value life of someone who's actively robbing me? In my mind

Let's Encrypt is easily automated with certbot, I've been running my home webserver for over 10 years with Debian and NixOS, without touching it apart from stable OS version upgrades.

To me, the answer is, sadly - yes. The record of infections per day is being broken daily where I live, and in the past week alone I've lost good family friends and a neighbor. If I had to go from my anecdotal data I would say that it&

KeyOne, KeyOne silver and Key2 were all made by TCL, no BlackBerry. The phone is still being sold as a BlackBerry device with all the BlackBerry software, but it's not RIM BlackBerry.

It's not an alternative. It's like saying that having no email is an alternative to having a GMail account, it isn't. Sure some people get by just fine, but it's not realistic to suggest it to people.

Not the way the question is phrased, I never had a RIM BlackBerry, but I have a TCL KeyOne right now and I love it. For all my life I only had phones with keyboards, and KeyOne was the only one available at the time, and I wouldn't buy

We can only hope that said asteroid isn't too big and evacuate the area of impact. We can't do anything to prevent it. ICBMs can't even target something in space, and even if we blow the asteroid with one the same mass would

What I think is a key contributing factor here is that we lost the ability to say "no" to updates. Before the modern era of appstores users could refuse to update the app and in doing so throw a wrench into company's plans to

Every time you see a SoC just check if Armbian supports it. This is the case here https://www.armbian.com/odroid-hc4/ , and if there is Armbian for it you can just use the Armbian sources to build the kernel for any oth

Recently my small home server had a disk failure. One of the BTRFS RAID0 drives started having a lot of device errors, and shortly after the second drive started having errors too - but BTRFS was able to just take the healthy bits from both

This is exactly why I hate all the "app stores". The idea that anyone can just decide to install an app on my phone prevents me from using anything touched by google.

Wow, that took me back. When I was a kid every time I would say something outloud I had to repeat it to myself, whispering, to "check" if sounds "good", and I had absolutely no control over it. It would also drive me mad

The honest answer here is that I don't trust any authority to be the "authority on information" and to be able to decide what I may or may not be able to see. I expect the search engine to be a search engine and not an "

No driver, processing or configuration is required on the bridged machine. This is good for devices you can't install a driver on (smart TVs, networked printers, any other appliance). No configuration also means you don't have to

I don't know if you ever worked with tech-illiterate people, but there is no way that they would print out or write down a list of codes or keep something in cold storage. Hell, even if they know how to. It's too much effort for s

I don't think that's a protective measure, to me it just looks like a convenient way of tracking the liquid level in the cartridge. I don't think that a hack like this is harming the company or cuts into their revenue - most

As someone who loves mechanical keyboards - there are many good membrane keyboards out there, if I had to use a membrane that would be Lenovo Preferred. They are a joy to type on.

My holy grail is a buckling spring ortholinear keyboard. I don'kt think that's going to happen anytime soon so I made a Kailh Pink XD75. It's as close as I can get, but that new Unicomp without the numpad looks amazing.

It's a constant weapons race - no matter how many pests you destroy a vast amount of available biomass would attract new ones.
