Thanks for sharing your project! The passion you put into It definitely shows! Serenity OS looks amazing, and your projects paradigm's align with some of my own for general purpose software. If I wasn't so locked into my own softw

I've never had any problems with this. At this point, it's second nature for me to either use underscores for spaces, or camel caps if there aren't any single character words like 'i' or 'a' in my desired

I understand the incentives, however, I think the biggest consequence of this is that it will give a false sense of support on conspiratorial videos and other forms of misinformation. Some people think that the more likes a video has, the m

Wow, what a fascinating article. It still blows my mind that annually his organization made seven times more than the Sinaloa Cartel. I think the last paragraph says it all: >What gave traditional organized crime its strength in the past

Download your website, engrave it on a quartz crystal[0], and hope your progeny have something to read the data from. If you want something that will last ~30 years, then tape and tape drives are a good way to go. When it comes to web hosti

I hear you, but being able to read books on my phone is a game changer for me. I wasn't able to do that with my old 5" phone. Also, along the same line, not straining my eyes to read a text or work email is pretty great too.

Does this stiff actually work? I feel like if your reputation is bad enough that a name change doesn't really do anything. For example: no one thought Academi was anything other than Blackwater. In my mind those those names have always

Libreboot has no binary blobs, Coreboot still has a couple. But modern CPU architectures require some of those blobs to function correctly. So Coreboot has broader compatibility with modern hardware than Libreboot. Both are good, but I'

Gentoo is great, but similar to LFS it is kind of a time suck. I migrated from Arch to Gentoo and it took me a while to figure out the right kernel parameters and USE flags for my system.

Honest question: why does apple think this will help anything? From what I've read, it looks like the sheer volume of the problem out weights virtually any solution (within reason) [1]. [1] https://www.nytimes.com/inter
