Is there a way to transform all those split packages into a single, simple to install .apk? (with a preselected architecture, and english lang) If Vanced will keep working as-is for maybe a year or two, that's at least nice, I just wou

You need to see the clusterfuck that is Twitter.com mobile site, it's so slow and laggy that it makes YT seem like a perfectly good page.

Related: I used to keep a collection of locally mirrored web pages a long time ago, with a legendary Firefox extension called ScrapBook [0] (now long retired). The surprise for me is that after all these years I still remembered the name.

The topic about quality of software has been brought up several times in HN, and here we are. I'm ashamed that in our industry, we are still tripping over pebbles and writing code so utterly shitty that it breaks when a number goes fr

As an ex-20-something-year-old human , it comes a day when you look back at when you were 20-something and invariably think "oh boy I was just a grown-up child back then". But 20-somethings haven't yet got there and sometime

For me (different language, if it makes a difference), the "Discover new Lists" was interesting but didn't work because just that one doesn't have an aria-label. Instead, it's just a series of divs placed consecut

Anyone knows how to set a Microsoft account so they don't require a verification code sent to another email? I want this to be the place where other accounts send their verification codes. The last thing I need is to go on a spree

See my "UPDATE" comment; basically the issue seems to be that the output from "docker run" will contain DOS-type line breaks ("\r\n") if running with a pseudo-tty attached, so, with the "-t" argument.

UPDATE: The comment by user thristian [0] did indeed contain an explanation for this and hinted to what is the solution to this problem! "docker run ..." should be scripted without "-t", in order to run the command w

Thank you a lot for this explanation. I have a good understanding of the difference between using or not a pseudo-terminal (and its effects on Docker commands) but I had never learned before about this distinction on behavior of line breaks

You are right, that's the best tool to use for the job! However, as it usually happens with scripts, adding non-coreutils dependencies becomes an issue (now the script needs to check for existence, request users to install if missing,
