PipeWire is great (and so were PA and Alsa and OSS in their time) and I hope the PipeWire's end-user documentation will be improved, so that I can use wireplumber instead of pipewire-media-session. Right now the end-user story is still

The general answer nowadays is "you don't": you spin up a new VM and provision it using whatever IaC/scripting solution works for you. Edit to add: even if this were possible, it would be made exta challenging due to the

They do have some kind of crisis mode where trains run back and forth between three stations, but maybe they had no way to trigger even that.

An actual experience. There were many more wrong guesses than you would think, which isn't that surprising given the insane quantity of sugar in all three of them. Your eyes do a lot of work when tasting food and drink, so when you see

Thanks for clearing that up. I agree that those are even worse than TOTP. I'm not expecting to see Yubikeys used anytime soon in the largish enterprises that outsource their IT to the lowest bidder and leave the thinking about security

It's a security decision made consciously or less consciously by you the user, so it won't be 100% accurate like a hardware U2F key would be. There was recently a story about a Dutch government employee who leaked his password and

Typical Microsoft that the last option for which MFA options are allowed is two options together: 'Verification code from mobile app or hardware token' — I really want the phishing-proof hardware token only!

I don't know of any example, but I immediately thought of a use case: to use it as a sort of CSS language where you take a graph with only 'semantic' custom attributes and use the GVPR language to transform these into shape a

My YOTLD was 2000, with Linux 2.2.16 on Slackware 7.1 and a glorious E16 desktop on XFree86. You can even print nowadays due to the magic of CUPS!

One of those extensions is the one that implements C# debugging, so for C# debugging, VSCodium is a fancy editor, not an IDE.

The same is said in the Netherlands, but if you double the number of available IC beds, with associated staff (good luck with that), all you've bought yourself is two weeks before those are full as well – because of exponential growth.

I can buy a DRM-less lossless music file that will play as many times as I like, on any device I own, for a reasonable price, without having to deal with a crappy and/or buggy distributor-specific app, or being dependent on the distrib

'Consider the source' is not the same as an ad hominem: 'The source is unreliable therefore we should distrust the information' vs 'The information is false because the source has bad credentials'.

Because it all lives in one repo, some distros make the choice of packaging all of systemd into one package, so that you can't choose to not install timesyncd or networkd.

Wow, that page is spectacularly broken on Chrome mobile: it disables zoom so that I can't see the whole graph, and if I view it using 'Desktop version' the page becomes unresponsive due to either too much Javascript, or due t

fugitive.vim makes it very fast to do laser-focused partial commits, you just have to remember to do it 2-3 times a day. It's really very good. I think Magit in the Emacs universe does more or less the same. Git-gui (bundled with Git)

Python should just remove the `is` operator. If you really need to compare object identities, which is already a rare scenario to begin with, you can explicitly compare the object IDs. Checking if something is or is not True/False&#x2F

Sometimes repositories have duplicated packages, I'd be surprised if packages in earlier named repos didn't have precedence over later named repos. Meaning Microsoft couldn't just replace bash.

I currently have the dynamic language blues – Python to me just doesn't feel like as much fun as it used to. Maybe it's getting too big and/or too crufty. At the moment I'm having great fun with Rust instead, which feels

Thanks, but I myself will be the judge of what is interesting. After all the speculative execution bugs I think it's pretty clear that Intel has reached a complexity threshold where it gets too difficult to reason about what the proces
