Maybe this is all for the better. Helping to kill off what the community no longer wants. I remember the XFree86 licensing controversy of 2004. That change effectively killed XFree86, gave rise to X.org, and new life to the world of open so

I'm against laptops with physically moving ethernet jacks. Moving parts are often the first to fail leading to unhappy users and warranty headaches. I also enjoy dongle adapters because I have complete control over the chipset being us

Likely the ships' insurers. According to this video, while there is a Canal pilot on board, the ship's captain has a "Master's Overriding Authority": https://youtu.be/ltdHRdtEHE4?t=204

Can we update the title? 100T reads as "100 terabytes" instead of "100 trillion" (as per the source).

On many sites, Firefox's reader icon gets the content before javascript hides/removes it. Especially if the button is pushed faster than the transition effects.

I remember when us Linux desktop folks would run Windows Media Player 6.4 under Wine because it had the best support for all the codecs out there. (Especially all the DivX movies and TV shows out there.) Also in the early 2000's it was

I wish these systems would have six action buttons on the right hand side. Perfect for N64 emulation.

I'm always amazed at how more people do not know about the Proxy protocol. (Also why is this not an RFC?) I suspect one reason is because the cloud vendors push hard for layer 7 routing, and cloud managed cert management. (ie: ALB and

Reading this reminds of learning that some *nix systems placed binaries inside `/etc/`. In fact, the linux kernel at boot looks for `/etc/init` [0], which is wild to me. It made me really appreciate the FHS's standa

Redreader is awesome. The interface is a little clumsy, it is open source and verifiably not making unrequested connections to the Internet is amazing.

Its a shame the Pixal 4A does not have an ultrawide camera. Of all the newfangled phone features, an ultrawide camera (with the software to back it) seems to be one of the new truly worth while features. I never understood nor cared for the
