The article touches on this. I guess that's why you're being downvoted. Anyway, they seem to have a solution to that, but they won't disclose it. So it's anyone's guess, but it seems to have been taken into consider

Wait, isn't it a bit of a stretch saying that John Perry Barlow is against net neutrality by linking to the declaration of independence of cyberspace? I mean, that seems to advocate against government intervention on the internet, but

"Doesn't support" does not mean "doesn't work". It just means that if you have a problem with slack on Firefox that doesn't happen in Chrome, they will not go out of their way to fix it and, probably, that

And that's why the more pop-oriented tunes have a so-called "radio edit" which skips the intro. Take, for example, Tim Deluxe's "It just won't do". This[0] is the dj-friendly club version. This[1] is the r

I know it can be tedious, but if you don't trust a piece of free software you have the opportunity to analyze its source code and decide for yourself if it's ok for your use case. Also, it's debatable whether `man -w` without

It works for me. I keep two instances of Firefox (Release and Nighly) on my work computer (Windows 10), Nightly on my phone (Android) and a couple computers at home running Firefox ESR (Debian). No problem whatsoever, even with such an hete

Since the original NeXT Objective-C compiler was written as an extension to GCC, and GCC has always been (at least perceived) as some sort of legal minefield WRT licensing, this doesn't seem so far-fetched. What surprises me is that it

Couldn't they before? I'm pretty sure there's plenty of GPL code in the *BSDs (I'm sure there's emacs in FreeBSD's ports). Am I missing something obvious?

Not only that. If I remember correctly, contributors also had to sign a contributor agreement which gave ownership of the code to the project. If they didn't, I guess they would have had to ask every contributor if they were ok with a

There's no technical reason gopher cannot act as a proxy to the web. Some years ago I started writing a gopher server in Java that did dynamic file serving. This would have been a possible use case.

Finally something that has "gopher" in the name and is actually about the gopher protocol. I've seen a dozen or so submission here in the last year that had "gopher" in the name but where actually about golang.

Well, if you lost the private key at the beginning, when they weren't worth much, you wouldn't have been that careful. So I'd wager that there is a fair amount of lost coins around.

While I see were you're coming from, even the x60 (which is still IBM-branded) had chiclet keys, and so does the x220 (my weapon of choice), but it's still a great keyboard (at least, it is for me and for many people I read on the

I agree that thinking you can redo a whole OS or a browser from scratch in a weekend is naive (at best), but it's also true that usually you can better understand a problem after you have some experience seeing how the current implemen
