The terminal might be the most ubiquitous piece of software between *nix flavors, if there's a single application you should probably learn the defaults for, it's gonna be that one. Last thing you want to do is look like an idiot

Not only resolution issues, but accuracy issues as well. I doubt ultrasound can provide the same fidelity as a highly-tuned laser high-frequency laser beam when it comes to keeping something in one place.

I always dipped between GNOME and KDE because XFCE and LDXE never impressed me, but for the last half-decade of development or so XFCE seems to be doing very well. I've moved all of my systems over to it and couldn't be happier. I

That's probably the most critical aspect of any YouTube replacement. People idealize about a free-as-in-beer video platform but at the end of the day, those don't pay for quality content to be produced. The YouTube of today can on

In my current model for a distributed video service, peers gain "premium" bandwidth rights in exchange for storing videos, modulated by view count. Plenty of users would store popular videos to chase after premiums, but it will be

I used to have to do it every single morning for a bogus supplement pyramid scheme my guardian fell for. It doesn't get any less disgusting even after a couple years. They also sometimes made me drink hydrogen peroxide mixed with water

BCH retained value because it represented a large portion of the community, and the goal was a soft fork rather than a hard fork so quite a few people participated in the switch. That kind of thing will happen less and less each time a larg

So somebody isn't telling the truth here. Somebody is pushing complete garbage for unclear reasons. Sorry for having to point that out. As it is, the patches are COMPLETE AND UTTER GARBAGE. They do literally insane things. They do thi

I'm not talking about what Manning leaked, just that they were a leaker who the US government made an example of.

I didn't say anything about cable leaks or what Manning leaked, that is a different conversation. I am simply referring to the Obama administration's treatment of Manning, and Obama's cowardly attempts at saving grace by gran

His regime was brutal against whistle-blowers. Look at Chelsea Manning. In his last few years as president, he did not exert much effort at all to shut down the NSA program, as he surely already mostly knew the extent of it and was fine wit

Well, no one wants a 32-bit web browser, and IrfanView 32-bit cannot handle large files well, I can't remember if the JRE has a 64-bit mode in the free edition but probably not. In general you will also lose stability and/or perfo

The Gamecube edged out in certain aspects like lighting and color accuracy, and the Playstation 2 won out in other ways. It was definitely a beefy GPU that stood toe-to-toe with Sony's... ATI did a good job. Unfortunately, Nintendo tho

Thanks for the link. I wouldn't be surprised if there is still dirty code in the source, but then again Exzap seems decently professional so he might know better. As I suspected, Patreon had a good bit to do with this, although he unde

Generally yes, but I have yet to hear a single positive thing about the joycons. Word on the street is they're cheap and unreliable and the exact opposite of ergonomic. The usual Nintendo approach of throwing decades of controller desi
