   If we punish respected organizations (of any kind) for every gaffe, we would not have any left. In an era where the journalists are more under attack than ever, we might want to remember it is easier to tear things down than build them up.

   Heartbreaking stuff. The difference between 1975 and now is that we have constructed neighborhoods that make it easier for people of different backgrounds to never interact.

   Shouldn't this be the kind of key/info/data where it is divided into N pieces, and all of the pieces are stored separately?

   Beacuse if I spend $1000 (even $2000) I want to get that much value for that purchase. Or I can spend significantly less and be that much less married to that purchase. Between Apple's missteps, Intel's not ideal products/roa

   I am strongly hoping that the 8GB Rpi + NexDock would be a good low cost laptop for web browsing, text editing and terminal. I've been turned off from investing in a new laptop for a variety of reasons: - Apple has made questionable ha

   It's a bummer protonmail doesn't support JMAP.

   Even more baffling is that NONE of these new laptops are 13in with high pixel density displays.

   I wish jitsi supported mobile browsers. People get really turned off at having to install yet another video conferencing app (YAVCA).

   UTC for status updates?? Not PST/PDT?? Amazing!

    Ah, the end of the countless references to KHTML :) As a long time KDE user I'm a little sad, but also fully aware this day would come.

    "All times are PDT." A daily reminder that one can do anything and everything in JavaScript, except display information in UTC.

    > Developers will be using the overall 16GB of memory in two ways: there’s 10GB for fast GPU optimal memory, 3.5GB for standard memory, and 2.5GB reserved by the OS. 2.5GB for the OS? Can someone explain why an OS needs that much?

    I also have "Lan Tim 2" in my account. But I've never even heard of Spreadshirt until now. Strange.

    I got a Samsung S10 a few days ago. If you are technical, the debloating process isn't so bad. You enable debug mode, hook your phone to PC, and run a bunch of "adb pm remove" commands. (Google for "xda S10 debloat"

    I'm glad I only ever stay at hotels rated at 3-star and above with hundreds of reviews. I can't remember ever being bait-and-switched by a hotel. Getting airbnb scammed is the last thing I would want on holiday, especially given h

    At 06:30 in the video: "No one knew at that point how the Unix wars would shake out -- Spoiler alert, BSD ended up winning" BSD won the Unix wars? what? There were no winners. Unix remained fragmented and Microsoft stepped up.

    I'm convinced there is a conspiracy that prevents laptop manufacturers from shipping AMD chips on 13" high end laptops. Almost every (every?) AMD laptop I find is some 14-15" clunker with a garbage screen. I've had to pu

    I sometimes wonder if it is too easy to get a Blue Card in Germany, and in turn will push down tech salaries when so many people show up willing to make slightly above the €42k requirement.

    You mostly associate GPL with capitalism? The GNU created the GPL and licensed most of their software under it. I can't think of an organization less interested in capitalism. Rather the opposite because the viral nature of the license

    Its stunning how geographically incorrect that map is. I can't believe the MTA/NYCTA/whatever would ever approve such a map.

    It is baffling that the Europe tab for AWS' Status page posts timestamps in PST. What the fuck is PST? We have the ability to do everything and anything in Javascript EXCEPT for fucking UTC or localized time zones. Is PST the new UTC?

    Someone on /r/amd theorized that GF had a likely case against TSMC, especially due to AMD taking the bulk of their production needs to TSMC. By resolving the case I suspect TSMC thinks they can out-compete against GF in the long r
