If you look closely you'll see that there's a parallax effect, where the lines near the equator move faster than the lines at the top, giving it a sense of depth and motion that you wouldn't expect from any ASCII art animatio

I run BSD on all of my desktop boxes, but I have not found any way to run it on a laptop. It just doesn't seem feasible; there are just so many mobile drivers that are missing. Has anyone else had any luck with getting FreeBSD to work

So... does this mean that Apple's flash storage is low-quality? I use the same MacBook Air that Linus does (except it's a 13" model), never turn it off, have reinstalled the OS multiple times, archive my data, do around ~3GB

The Mac is/was a competitor to the PC; it's a general purpose computing device. The Apple II was designed to be a hackable computer for hackers while also being terrifically capable as a GP machine.

It's a fallacy that the every-day user doesn't want or need a filesystem. They do need a filesystem and interoperable components. What they do NOT need is a hierarchical based filesystem that limits you to a directory trees. It&#x

I'm quite amazed at the negativity and derision on this thread. We are hackers. We do things not because they're good for business, and not because we want to be pragmatists with every decision. We don't create startups becau
