Try NetSurf, if you haven't already. It's not perfect but it's a bit faster than Dillo is. (The build process feels a little wobbly to get used to but it honestly takes 3-5 minutes to build.) I used Dillo between 209 and 2012

The first link currently redirects to a login page, FYI. The second one is okay.

I came here to mention the URL too. I have a downloaded copy as well if anyone needs it. The file sha256 is b74a269131bd54a4b1ada41e28e3e14ace80e770693fa3c328b26073ea9a6e06. (I would never have thought to mention the video type, kudos.)

This is redirecting me to weibo.com/login; looks like it was pulled down by the video author or the site itself. Alternate source? A downloaded/cached copy, perhaps?

It's against Google's indexing policy to list a hit for a site a normal user would be barred access to due to paywalls etc. This means that news sites who want their content and stories indexed have to let (Referer'd) clicks

Just over a week ago I thought I'd ask why HN itself seems so incredibly fast: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9990630 I got some pretty interesting replies (and someone from CloudFlare even checked in at one poin

Note: the article links to a poorly made video 1m35s long that describes absolutely nothing from a technical "how-to" standpoint at all. It's quite hard to describe just how much of a vacuum the video feels like to watch. ...

Ah, that's one of the things I still have an issue with, taking things personally, haha. And yeah, now you mention it I realize I forgot to point out that this was my experience and that everyone's different. Thanks for the kind w

Update: I wondered for a bit before I posted the above, about how I should word it and how much info I should share. I thought I'd go with a "post the most helpful info I've come across" approach, since I like trading hi

I think it would be a truly viable startup idea to connect app developers with "naive" people - soccer moms who simply haven't got the time to learn tech properly, 70-year-olds who've never used a smartphone, 3 year olds

This is admittedly definitely the kind of thing I'd love to see a "making of" about. Actual real devices?! I would really like to get a bit of a behind-the-scenes on how they managed that . :P

I've personally only ever used various alternative therapies for my various issues (ADHD, OCD, Autism, a tiny bit of bipolar). I'm not "ready for life" yet (still working through other career showstoppers) but on multipl

I just thought to check HN again ([mumbles something about notifications]), glad I did. I just opened all the files that are there; Readme.txt has now loaded, and I commented! :D And I was thinking something like this for the file listing (

Aw, cool :D I'm really interested to see where this goes. I just fired it back up to have another look, and I thought of a couple more ideas: - If it's not too hard, maintain a live-updated index of how many peers are available fo

I'm not a Go programmer but this looks like a very useful resource. :) The only thing I'd suggest is... with your title of "Why is X in the standard library?" I thought you were referring to X11 (from UNIX et. al.) :P

I've had it open for about 5 minutes. The root page (/) showed "peers: 2" for a while now, now it says "peers: 1". I see a list of two files, both just do while(1) { connecting connecting.

I think you mis-posted the website URL. You should be fine to go ahead and repost.

I wouldn't mind that; I just like peeking at internal admin panels and observing how much design effort a company or individual decides to put into an "industrial" software system that's only meant for internal and/

One incredibly simple-minded possibility could be to keep VirtualBox or Qemu VM disk images on a USB HDD, and suspend the VMs to the HDD to move between machines. Also, since it's better to err on the side of saying something irrelevan

I'll throw this out there because you might consider it relevant. I recently learned that Abe HomeBase is pretty much the de facto standard book inventory software out there. It seems there's little motivation to search for other
