   After I finished the two Frank Kittridge novels from S.J. Morden I was surprised I haven't heard of him until now. They start as a "The Martian" cribbed story, but the development arc takes in better places. It was less geek&

   I did jump through the hoops every year and it's mostly fine, a 20m form filling exercise. I only had to explain one time that my project was still ongoing despite having a lot of seemingly automated commits.

   I'm pretty sure they have an adblocker in Qutebrowser. It might need some additional dependencies installed.

   It's a long story. Theoretically yes, practically no.

   I did that (in a different company). They fired me. :)

   This happened to my company a couple of months ago, and this was in Europe. As anecdata the managers implementing this forced RTO with "just quit if you don't like it" as an option were all Amazon alumni.

   The current 10inch devices are quite expensive, you can imagine what a 14inch color e-ink screen would be at almost twice the surface size.

   Building dams and dykes is not new engineering. Maybe the scale of covering enough of the shore lines with them will be challenging, but it will probably be less disruptive than having to displace the 190M people the abstract cites.

    > you are fair game I am pretty confident that when Stallman writes about large age gaps, he wasn't condoning predatory behaviour, but wanted to emphasize the fact that some people can be fully capable of making their own decisions

    The Sailfish OS phones are in some use, and they've been running full blown linux since 2013.

    I think the first part could be solved by systemd timers, no?

    Less incentives for the world's most popular browser having a google search integration, less incentives for one of the leading mobile OSes to have a google search integration, etc.

    I always use both a comma and a semicolon. Just to cover more bases.

    Thank you for the clarification, sorry for the snark. :D

    Funny you mentioned playerctl. Due to the fact that over time its scope expanded from a simple MPRIS based control application, into a full blown library with various unneeded (by me) features. Therefore as a starting point for the scrobble

    If linux people are interested in using listenbrainz and can't find a player with plugin for it (usually media players ignore it in favour of last.fm) I developed a generic scrobbler daemon that works well with it (also with libre.fm a

    The problem so far is that everyone creates alternative projects, but nobody actually builds communities.

    I'm not sure what you meant when you said "without JS". To actually use templates you need JS. Yes you can declare them, but what's the point?

    Where is this "alleged" though? From one of the paragraphs behind my link: > This won't appear in your page until you grab a reference to it with JavaScript and then append it to the DOM

    You seem to be quite careless about whom you offend, but I'm not a fan. Please quit it, the only one whining right now seems to be you.

    > they can work without JS enabled (at least in theory). I wonder what makes you say that. All that I've seen seems to indicate[1] that Javascript is needed in order to register the template with a specific tag. [1] https:/&#x

    As a biased[0] party I must mention that the Go programming language has at least one and a half libraries in the form of Go-Fed[1] and Go-ActivityPub[2]. [2] https://github.com/go-ap [1] https://github.com/

    The consumer artifact for a game developed for a platform is a binary that can run natively on that platform. Regarding games, that is a binary that targets the ubuntu based Steam Linux Runtime. That's what I meant when I said that dev

    The people I mentioned in my comment clearly disagree with you, and frankly they have more of an incentive to be well informed about the situation. See the twitter link I posted to your comment's sibling for Ethan Lee's impression

    I am pretty sure you're wrong. Here's a tweet from 2021: https://x.com/flibitijibibo/status/1416118465442852869 To quote from down the conversation: > @flibitijibibo (Jul 16, 2021): Don't look at

    I can think of one thing, which might not be what parent meant: the incentive of developing for linux, or paying porters like icculus and flibitijibibo to build a native version goes out the window, and the need for their kind of craft goes

    My company tried at the start of the year to get everyone back in the office. The worker's council (which is not entirely a union, but very close to it) negotiated for the everyone a three day a week RTO. I refused to go back for those

    I suspect parent was thinking of 304 Not Modified, which is the status header usually associated with caching.
