Also if you go back in time a hundred years, you'll find things using katakana where hiragana is used today (to the point of having full sentences in katakana)

As someone who speaks Japanese, I think Chinese is harder.

Not that it makes a huge difference, but hiragana and katakana have 46 characters each.

The Japanese word comes from French, FWIW. It's also not specific to Anime. It's a term commonly used in the Japanese TV industry. It's kind of fascinating that "cours" is the more seasonal term (as it refers to a p

Let's be honest: given the opportunity (multiple lanes, etc.), the car would likely overtake a slow car as well, and stop at a red light right after that. I see that all the time (albeit I'm in Japan, not in the US) Edit: point be

Well, it turns out Boxes is older than I thought (more than 10 years old), but it also looks like it came out of Red Hat (where virt-manager also comes from), so there is still a choice of where resources are allocated...

I'd argue virt-manager's UX is a little clunky, but that doesn't justify going that far.

I'll be bluntly honest: instead of writing yet another virtualization thingy that nobody asked for, how about fixing long standing issues with the existing ones? Example I recently hit with virt-manager: external snapshots are not supp

They have. That's what symbol versioning allows, and what glibc does with it.

The problem is not the .so, which has all versions, but the .o files, that don't have a way to represent the version they would prefer to use. C declarations also lack a way to specify those versions, and the last version is the only o

And if you double-click a PIE executable in nautilus (GNOME file manager), it won't run it. That's why Firefox didn't ship as PIE for a long time in Mozilla's pre-built tarballs (because a lot of users would run it at le

Those were fucked up 1.1 versions though, not 2.0. And nobody was asking for them.

In some way, that kind of happened with the "Snyder cut", although the story is more complex, in that the original version of the movie never happened, a different movie was made, and the original one ended up being done, but it w
