Amazing how an entire profession that until yesterday would pride itself on precision, clarity (in thought and in writing), efficiency, and formality, has now descended into complete quackery.

A comment on libxml, not on your work: Funny how so many companies use this library in production and not one steps in to maintain this project and patch the issues. What a sad state of affairs we are in.

What's the deal with `Devboxes`? is this a common thing? Sounds very clunky for regular (human-driven) development.

I was hoping banks would turn to using Yubikeys/U2F for authentication/transaction signing, and not these Draconian measures.

Sure, but do you have any facts to backup that assertion?

Am I the only one who's not buying into the Wayland hype? I just want X11 support not to fall into disrepair, as I see nothing wrong with it.

I'm so surprised to see that folks rediscover Unison in 2026 :) It is a unique piece of software which has been around for 20 years or so. The two way sync is great but also a bit scary since it can wipe files. BTW, Rclone has bisync n

I don't want Linux to become as popular as Windows currently is. Its quality would decline drastically as it would be subjected to all sorts of corporate forces. I don't want it to become a commercially driven, adversarial OS like

Yap I can confirm, Dell's P (professional) and U (ultra) lines are excellent and work flawlessly. The S (standard?) line not so much.

You can actually get a prepaid travel eSIM before you leave on holiday.

by prima-facie 1y ago
You absolutely can. But it does need an internet connection for that. Which actually makes eSIM more secure than regular SIM.

POP3 is outdated and should've been withdrawn years ago. IMAP provides everything POP does and more.

Systemd hardening is great, but each service needs its own bespoke config and that takes a bit of time and trial & error. Here's the override I've been using for Jellyfin: https://gist.github.com/radupotop&#x2F

I would love if they implemented a feature to prune media files larger than ~10MiB from the existing backup file. This way the file size would not grow to astronomical proportions so quickly.

I'm assuming the backup format uses a container (like Veracrypt volumes), which grows in size forever, and cannot be backed up incrementally. I ran into the same issue when backing up loopback LUKS volumes. An elegant solution in this

Give Lato a try. I've been using it as the default UI font / sans-serif in Xfce for years and it worked well for me.

This article is already largely irrelevant. The GPL (and the FSF), whether you like it or not, always has been a political movement. The aim of the movement is to expand the pool of free/libre software and to disallow commercial entiti
