I think getting around permissions would be an issue but when I was starting on Linux I remember there was a way to install to Fat32 inside a directory in parallel with Windows 95. The distro was called Phat, so the concept is not exactly n

I know the basics of Emacs as an editor, and I understand that it is possible to use Lisp to extend it, but I have not come in contact with a good resource to teach me the fundamentals of how to do so. I know a bit of Lisp, I am more curiou

Being the only person able to program in a small team, I know I am the target of the criticism in this post. I think it is mostly true, I wish there were other people looking at my code, but for years I've been working on projects alon

I was using a Q9550 around 4 years ago to play modern games. Really an impressive processor for its time, I only stopped using it because I moved away and couldn't take a desktop with me.

Spotted some typo (Nihnogo), so you might want to double check your spelling. I'm not sure if it is a personal thing, but I would like to have an idea of your pricing before trying your app, and it was not clear from the web page. This

One thing to be aware of is that different translations affect the understanding of this book to a certain degree. I do not have a recommendation for English translations, as I read it in a different language, but it is good to compare a fe
