Even the person submitting the report conceded that it was more to do with faulty hardware (VCC3SW malfunction) than anything wrong with memtest86. This needs to be flagged.

No, I really was put off by the low quality and the dumb accents that Gibson did (which I'm guessing is the version you listened to). Just checked the wiki and supposedly there are two other versions out there which I guess I'll h

On Firefox at least, it doesn't actually load those tabs until you click on them. I have about 400 tabs on this session of FF Nightly, on a 2010 4GB Ubuntu laptop.

I don't get how he didn't see making such a comment as an own goal, given how the average person sees the financial system these days.

That's the point I was making, we won't know, we'll have to come up with a way of dealing without a central authority because the people who want to be our current central authorities are starting to show signs of being compr

>“In response to a court order against Sci-Hub, Comodo CA has revoked four certificates for the site” I think they have more pressing concerns than ethics and morals. I'm not saying I agree btw. I think it's precisely moves lik

I use cmc all the time, this looks like a tidier, friendlier version of it.

SCUMMVM already has support for older Mysts on newer Windows version, why do we need a kickstarter again?

It is very jarring, that's why I love it. He isn't at all bothered about following generic fantasy patterns, it does seem like a labor of love in that he just does what he likes when he likes. The only weak part I felt so far was

Still on the 2nd book. Just love how he obfuscates so much of the plot and drips it out very sparingly, while focusing very heavily on character development. It feels like he is comfortable at revealing details at his leisure rather than cl

>ctrl+f "Malazan" - "0 results" I guess I'm going to have to be 'that guy'. Malazan Book of the Fallen does the whole intricate, overlapping fantasy universe incredibly well.

Pretty sure Ubuntu are the largest Linux vendor right now, and have their distro on the largest number of servers worldwide.

$800? I run Ubuntu LTS on a $150 Dell E6400 (2009~) with 4GB ram and a Core 2 Duo and it flies . As long as you have at least 2GB RAM, any recent Ubuntu should be fine.

What would boost uptake is for just one of the major distros, especially Ubuntu, to release a spin/variant based off either.

The fact that people trust in something doesn't automatically mean that thing is good, remember that many people (even the same as those who put their trust in *coins) also trust in sky wizards and celebrities. I realise you may just b

That's just bullshit. The design committee of the major DEs/distros are already that benevolent dictator. What have you tried that you found it was mostly garbage? I used Unity just fine for about 5 years until the recent switch t

Not sure if it's really worth going into the politics for this one since news like this is becoming all too common. But that patriotism has a lot to do with how China unites its very heterogeneous people firstly under a contrived &#x27

It's gotta be sheer coincidence that every article/thread on HN critical of China, all the comments questioning the Chinese state get voted down. Season 3 of Mr Robot hasn't gone far enough IMO.
