There are many, many biblical texts from various centuries that agree with each other. The New Testament has twice as many ancient copies as any contemporary works. The Dead Sea scrolls are a good example of older copies being found… and th

Yeah, growing up there in the 80s, 90s, and early 00s we had all kinds of rumors about the Balistrieris and where the bodies were dumped. We didn’t know anything of course, but there were definitely stories about speakeasies that some of th

Perhaps the operations could have all been added to `ioctl`.

I thought it might be about all the flavors of ARM and the death of a “compatible” standard.

This seems like a useful service for cities to provide: street maps and traffic rules for each segment in a standard format.

I don’t use windows often, but I was using it to check some hardware the other day and had to dig through nests of settings to get back to back to what was more or less the display settings screen from the Windows 9x/NT era, albeit wit

It's easily extendable to the animal world as well. Is a nest created by a bird or a den created by one of various mammals natural or artificial? Is a nest made by mice in my garage from synthetic fabrics, flexible plastics, and whatev

When the markup’s first design goal is to be parsable in linear time (and then proceeds to have a bunch of rules to support that goal instead of flexibility for humans) I don’t think there is much chance of catching on as a general markup l

Or only store recordings locally or only store uploaded videos E2E encrypted. There are lots of ways to preserve owner privacy (not necessarily subject privacy) while preventing employee abuse.

A few months ago a former Navy guy mentioned to me that you can tell if your pilot is Navy or Air Force by the landing. Air Force pilots will come in nice and smooth, but Navy pilots, having been trained to land on carriers, will hit hard.

If that’s the state of things - taking money for personal interest to oppress the people that are suppose to be represented - perhaps we need an amendment to bar holding public office after attaching a name (authoring or sponsoring) to bill

Dominic Giampaolo (the author of BeFS) did essentially that with Spotlight (also the author of Spotlight) on HFS & APFS (also the author of APFS).

The difference between the Apple and Google lawsuits (from what I can tell), is that Apple didn’t exempt FANG and held them to the same terms as everyone else while Google made private deals with special terms for individual businesses (Spo

Yeah, as much as I defend Apple against the “they have a monopoly on the iPhone” crowd, this seems worse than the original restrictions. People have been buying stuff online for decades. There’s no new security issue at play here. Taking a

One of my favorites is finding such a post, getting hopeful to find an answer, and then realizing it was me who wrote the post years and years ago. I once was helping a coworker with a problem and asked about it on a related forum. Later th

BeFS is its own awesome thing. Sure, ZFS integrity and portability is nice, but the speed and metadata of BeFS is great.

That idea is exactly what killed Be. Well, one of the things, anyway. 10 years later the iPad filled that roll and continues un-challenged nearly 14 years later.

On a king bed that’s more difficult because the dimensions are close enough to be within tolerances for most sheets, but with a big enough gap that when you get to the last corner it will be right. The last two sets of sheets I’ve had have

SINOVOIP is the major name associated with BPI, but it does seem like it is also affiliated with Foxconn. At least one of their engineers has been working with the OpenWRT team closely on the R3 and has been a wealth of knowledge in the BPI

I’m currently using a Banana-PI R3 which meets those requirements. It only recently got release support for OpenWRT, but SinoVOIP seems to be actively working with them (which is confirmed with this announcement). There are still small issu

So make cost optimization cool. I always enjoyed getting rid of production hardware and running as lean as possible within operational constraints. Incentivize cost reduction with benefits proportional to the savings. You know what’s cooler

Same. I also have megalophobia specifically related to ducting and that picture set of my panic response. I hadn’t really thought too much of it, but I wonder if Thr Empire Strikes Back is to blame.

Yeah, literal int representation in source is one thing, changing int parsing string methods is something else and probably should require explicit inclusion.

Yeah, that’s my understanding. Sega CD and PlayStation both used ISO-9660 based CD-ROMs, frequently with CDDA tracks. Occasionally these would include warning audio as well, however CD players at the time didn’t know to skip the DATA track

For those that might not be aware, the Dreamcast can read regular CDs but also GD-ROMs, a 1GB density format (though not as high density as DVD). The only other system I know that can read them is Sega’s NAOMI arcade (and the colab Triforce

If they are converters, I wonder how difficult it would be to make them standalone utilities that did the format conversion and nothing more (assuming there doesn’t need to be manual intervention). I’m sure there is complexity but it seems

For anyone interested, I wrote an Mac app to provide a disk activity indicator in the menu bar - https://ttkb.co/soft/drivelight/ It doubles as a way to quickly eject and access mounted volumes as well.

I’m not sure if the NES can, but by the 16-bit era the console can modify what’s being output between scan lines. Obviously that’s only beneficial if the action affects what is below the current scanline, but the way images were drawn allow

There’s a sneaky reason to suspend their service if they’re not using it: to capture some revenue by avoiding chargebacks or refunds for the entire idle period. If they fees stop getting charged, past periods are likely not going to be audi
