It looks like you fished the awk file out - I found http://cowlark.com/mercat/com.awk.txt linked directly on that page, which, at 1610 total lines (1518 SLOC counting commented-out code), sounds like exactly what you&#

Now it's been updated to use dd, and can run with /bin/sh. It's sad that languages rise and fall by the feature base present in their standard libraries.

It's kinda sad, but it's gotten to the point that heavyweight players are going to be needed to fix the problem. I just really hope that the banks either don't figure out how to make everything go in their favor, or that the

Yes, but, the article states > ...the block chain is controlled by Chinese miners, just two of whom control more than 50% of the hash power. That's a pretty unique situation. If a predominant amount of hash power were concentrated i

Hmm. 15TB definitely sounds nicer than 10.... :D :D I fully intend to buy disks with widely spaced apart manufacturing dates, so theoretically this should be manageable. Now I get why 8 disks is recommended... you can make a mirrored pair o

Wow, this looks really cool. One curious idea that might be worth exploring: writing a Vulkan guest driver on top of this stack. It would be a novel approach, as the guest would see a Vulkan-centric view of the world (making development rea

In case anybody's still reading this, I have a couple of use-case questions. I'm planning on setting up my first volume pool using 4 5TB Seagate ECs. I can't get any more than four to begin with. I was intending on using mirr

Try and locate high-level contact email addresses, or even better, phone numbers. This might be a long shot, but when I'm trying to solve difficult problems like these, I just call Sales. And Sales might have these phone numbers! Sure,

It might be worth starting a discussion on this subject (here or elsewhere) to make more people aware of this problem. (It was buried at the bottom of the comments here, not many people will see this)

TIL about this, this is very cool. FWIW, "Latest commit ... 4 days ago," so it's not dead, which is nice. (And 4 days certainly gives lots of hope!)

Oh, TIL; I had no idea it was actually free. I understood that each user got 500 points and that you use 10/day, which gives you 50 days of usage... aaand then I'm not sure. I'm not dissing it, I just don't understand (a

Another commenter said exactly the same thing about texture size, so I think you've pretty much nailed it. The native build sadly didn't fix much; Electron === Chrome at this level of the stack pretty much. Thanks for taking the t

Looks like you're right, the author responded saying exactly the same thing :) I tried killing webGL, which technically worked - I see a card deck! - but it didn't practically work: said card deck interacted at about 0.75-0.9fps

Seconding the low-res thing. Another person here took a sequence of shots and just linked the individual images. If you like tinkering, the step up from that would be stitching the images together with something like Hugin.
