Sounds very enticing, however $25/m for 1 TB seems rather pricey. Is replication that x2, or is it included?

Ok, sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. I'm sure you had the best intentions in mind when writing your answer. The thing is, for me the main reason to ask questions on forums like HN is to work against "unknown unknowns". T

B2 doesn't require any closed-source platform specific software to use, you can just use restic. And I'm not sure why should I care about either software and hardware on their end, they should be basically an external hard-drive

Using the chance to ask: what is currently the cheapest, most efficient place for home PC backups (on linux)? Backblaze B2? Something else?

If you ask me about "songs about white collar work", first thing that comes to my mind is this[0] (it's a cover, but I like this one better). It isn't about white collar work, of course, but white collar work is all abou

I'm afraid "selling" requires a bit more than showing me a "Buy Now" button. At least in my case, you are also supposed to show me the product.

Totally off-topic, but where did the idea come from that landing sites are supposed to look like that? How am I even supposed to navigate this fucking thing? It's so frustrating when I try to scroll and objects start flying around fran

Sure, everything you are saying is correct, but you two are basically concerned about different problems, and, FWIW, I'm honestly more concerned about your "opponent"'s one. All this CO₂ emission stuff got way more polit

Uh, did he? If I'm not mistaken, he just used really dense wood, no crazy chemistry in that particular video.

If somebody never watched it, I recommend starting with the older videos, though. There isn't any dependency on the chronological order per se, but once finished with "just" making knifes from all kinds of stuff the guy gets

I don't find it surprising some designer thought it was cool. And too everybody, calling this "idiotic" (the journalist included — well, especially him): I'm sure you are making decisions as idiotic as this in your profe

So, it isn't a problem if you just use Linux on your Dell XPS, right?

> Displaying 1 kilobyte of data should take roughly 1 kilobyte of traffic Is this to be taken literally? I don't consider myself a performance-tuning expert, but I'm not sure how can I make something useful out of this advice.

I work with projects where this is utilized and I'm not sure they are better than nothing. Maybe I will change my mind someday, but up to this point, "conventional commits" are the stupidest thing ever. First off, this is not

Are there any benchmarks (performance)?

It's really stupid that this stuff still happens. I mean, youtube-dl main devs are stepping away, it's understandable. But it would be so much more convenient for everyone, if it was passed over to somebody, who is still intereste

Literally everything. 1. I download whole channels if there's a series I want to watch. 2. I download music, since youtube is a really quite nice music library. 3. I download long videos before I watch it, because it's just more p

Bad? No, not really. If you ask me, (almost?) nothing is inherently bad. But it's a nice and obvious feature to skip them if you want, so it's pretty amazing that such options are possible now. (However, I don't think I'

I alias "youtube-dt <options>" to "yt-<something>". i guess a lot of people do. I won't be surprised if I already have some yt-dlp among the other variations. Also, I already said it's not hte only

I know it sounds incredibly picky, but given it's supposed to be a drop-in youtube-dl replacement, it's quite annoying to suddenly change the name to something as hard to remember as yt-dlp instead of, say, youtube-dlp. I will be

A traditional question for these threads: are there real alternatives yet? I mean, such that you actually did switch. You said that you didn't, and neither did I. I just don't know if anything but Chromium would be sustainable, an

Depends on what you mean. I often hear claims that you can use decorators in language X, which are formally true, since decorator is just a function accepting and returning another function, so any language that has anonymous functions (whi

Oh well. Now I'm disappointed.

Huh... That's plausible. But I'm curious, how this bot would work? How does it "know" it should make this particular submission?

This is a pretty small project, and, furthermore, it is by its nature supposed to support a lot of different systems, so I personally don't know if it makes sense to rewrite it (and in Python out of all things: maybe then better rewrit

So, is the actual data available? I am not seeing it.
