I just recently purchased a "GPD Pocket", which is in my opinion the best Linux machine I've ever owned. Its a unibody-like case (just like MacBook) with a touchscreen, in a very small package: https://www.indiego

I'm a huge BeOS fan (my BeBox still works) and in my opinion the one thing that Be, Inc. could have done to stay alive, and the only thing, is this: focus on making innovative hardware. They didn't - the decided that hardware is t

The same has been said countless times over the decades for things like "Unix", or "Linux" or heck .. even Windows in some quarters. I don't think there's anything 'wrong' per se with having alternati

I do something similar with Hammerspoon on MacOS, which allows you to do all of this stuff, albeit with the Lua programming language (which I find far more elegant than anything else) .. Its gotten to the point that I can't seem to rea

I couldn't get this built out of the box from your repo, some sort of problem with the toolchain producing non-compiling .S assemblies, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading the sources and observing the MacOS Synth, and so on .. pretty nic

This whole thing is a straw man. It is we the people who should be dismantling the security state, in order to solve the terror/war problem - we sure as hell don't need career experts dictating this. The public truly needs to fig

I love it, but I hate the registration options and I do not want to pay $$ for this. Maybe I'd be happier if there were a 'mine bitcoin' option instead?

Governments always gain their power from the governed, and nowhere else. This fact is always resisted by those who know it because it a) makes the people responsible for the actions of their government and b) makes the government responsib

A seriously traumatising bit of literature, and I'm on the fence over whether it was a positive influence in my life or a negative one - and whether I want my own kids to now read it/experience it, or not. On the one hand, it most

I think its intended to enrich your literate senses in that, you probably could google these phrases and learn something new, while at the same time expanding your own perception of the subject of the article. I mean, there is a time and p

Its never going to work like that for the web, because web browser/client producers aren't interested in parcelling out pieces of the pie - its an all-or-nothing approach in the client wars, and we, 2nd-tier programmers hoping to

The polyglot'al nature of PoC||GTFO is one of the very reasons to read this fine periodical, indeed. If you have not acquainted yourself with this aspect of literature, you most certainly have a wonderful adventure ahead of you - I su

I would love to see the results this produces on a largish Javascript codebase - the examples are compelling, but seeing it on some real-life code would be quite neat. Has anyone fired this up on their own non-demo codebase and be willing

Amsterdam has the advantage that its history predates automobiles, and it has continually adapted, multiple times, to modernity. Americans seem unwilling to do that for some reason .. Its a pity because there are so many wonderful aspects o

Insulae aren't necessarily sky-scrapers, though, right? They kind of build up on a larger composite base, and are a bit more massive - and lower in general - whereas the Shibam seem to have a smaller base, but taller reach, as a whole

No, this is incorrect, and you are clearly inexperienced on the subject of being poor, or rich. Perhaps somewhere in between? I started off poor. I worked very hard. I'm much richer now as a result of it. Nobody will ever take that

I feel like this basic income ideology is really rooted in laziness - like, everyone likes free things, right? You don't have to work for it? But - do we ever really ask where that money is coming from? The rich just give it? So the
