Firefox is fast enough for most people, it has a UI as good as Chrome (that maybe is shit for some people, however most people don't care), most people don't care if Pocket is included or not (it is not like Firefox keeps nagging

Check your Zsh theme. Zsh has no built-in support for git status, so themes that show git status are implementing this by themselves. One way to make this slow is to check git status synchronous, however there are ways to do this asynchrono

I like it because it is easier to add than remove. Spacemacs has so many language specifics keybindings that, while taking less time to be productive, also makes customization much harder thanks to the multiple conflicts that you will proba

I think it is mainly because `fish` is incompatible with everything. Most `bash` scripts runs fine in `zsh` (`zsh` has even a `bash` compatibility mode, not necessary generally because rarely `zsh` and `bash` diverges), no `bash` script run

I particularly prefer doom-emacs [1]. I migrated from Vim to Spacemacs, however doom-emacs is leaner, faster and has better evil integration. For example, Spacemacs has no mapping for evil-numbers, however doom-emacs maps it to Ctrl+A (incr

Applying thermal paste "the correct way" needs some person to do very delicated labor. And also is impossible to do a proper QA. Now imagine doing this in a factory pipeline. I don't think this would scale.

Pretty much what @jordanbeiber described. I recently had to change my work's notebook. Since my NixOS configuration was commited in my dotfiles, I simply restored my NixOS configuration and $HOME and everything was working like the old

To fix it, following just the first part of the article is sufficient (setting `dns=none` in NetworkManager configuration). There is no need to remove or disable systemd-resolved, set chattr +i or anything else (of course, if you're no

by m45t3r 8y ago
Just to some people know, systemd-resolved does not override /etc/resolv.conf by default. I know because neither Arch not NixOS does this, you need to explicitly override it using `ln -sf /run/systemd/resolve/s

Nope, yeah Apple should try to resolve mDNS queries, however it shouldn't ignore local DNS requests or make them a lower priority.

You can track a bullet though, this seems to be completely invisible to naked eye so you could put a house on fire (since it seems to be pretty hot) and nobody would know.

Sorry, not factorial either. More like 170k (170k - 1) (170k - 2). Generally I see people using Diceware with more than 3 words too (at least 4 or 5). However if the file does not need NSA levels of security 3 words seems fine.

It is not multiplication, it is permutation (170k!). I don't know how big this number is, however it is pretty big. This technic even has a name: diceware [1]. [1]: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diceware

Just to complemented my previous comment, Android is probably one of the most secure Linux based devices in the world, probably only losing to ChromeOS.

How about a PR? /s No, but really, saying things like "I hate the technical decisions made by your project, please change it" without really participating in the project is silly. It is like "why not Rust?" all over

Because KDE has Phonon, an audio subsystem way more complex than PulseAudio (and in my experience, more bugged too). Things like hotplug, Bluetooth devices and as such shouldn't be managed by your desktop manager, unless you want for t
