I don't know, and it's why I moved off them. Additionally, the Bridge is only available for Windows/Linux/Mac, so if you want to use your own email client on mobile, I guess your only option is to VPN into your home netw

Unfortunately it kind of fails at being a good pocket computer (all else aside they got rid of the concept of files and replaced it with nothing). The fact that it fails at being a phone too is just adding insult to injury.

I was casually keeping an eye on websites, etc, and never found one. Then earlier this year I decided I really wanted one for Elden Ring, went in person to a games store and talked to them, and had one three weeks later. So that may be wort

This conversation doesn't seem to be about bang-for-buck. There's also a difference between strict (on-paper) hardware specs and the actual experience of using it.

Presumably because the archive.ph version is actually scrollable cross-browser (or with JS turned off).

Modern desktop Linux barely works, honestly. Its saving grace is the wide support for basically everything under the sun, both hardware and software-wise. But if you know what programs you need and they all run on a BSD, I don't see wh

I miss that on (stock) Linux. At least on my Gentoo system at home (yes yes, I know) I can have a nice clean pstree, but my work laptop runs like two hundred things before I even open a program.

Freedom of speech is a principle. The US 1st Amendment is one specific implementation of that principle, but generally people asking for free speech are making a moral argument, not a legal one.

No you haven't, that's just what people tell you to try to get you to take sides. The oppressor will also happily make that argument to you, btw.

I mean, slow compile times affect everyone who compiles the kernel. And being able to compile things yourself (possibly with patches) is one of the key features of open source...

You could make a case for the genre "re"solidifying, but roguelikes as a genre were hardly an indistinct vapour before this recent craze.

If it feeds you code made available under the GPL, it should probably tell you that your code needs to comply with the GPL to use that snippet, yes?

Lisp's conditions and restarts are great for this, so you can make the policy decision at a high level while not fully unrolling the stack and allowing retries to be done in the original context if that's the verdict.

I brought up plagiarism because it's what happened in this case. Maybe I shouldn't've mentioned copyright at all.

My experience is that a mouse is most accurate, followed by a trackpoint, followed by a trackpad, but then again I rarely use trackpads. I inevitably move the mouse when I take my finger off or try to press buttons. Also if I leave it enabl

Right, but ctags isn't the reason it's not. Ctags just works and goes substantially above and beyond what you'd expect of "Just a text editor".

My criticism of Wayland has always been that they dropped a spec, forgot to make an actual server, and now every window manager needs to implement support for various extensions separately. It's a fine design if you assume everyone onl

Can I introduce you to a concept called copyright? Is it fine if an author publishes a short story publicly on the web for someone else to submit it to a contest as their own work?

I'm so confused. Vim has ctags, and it works, across multiple files. Granted I don't think vim is an IDE, but you'd demonstrate that better by pointing to the IDE stuff it doesn't do (like debugging, I think, but I debug

In my experience, the number of ads, cookie banner shenanigans, and embedded Twitch streams is inversely correlated with the usefulness and quality of the website. Maybe if all of these websites went away, I could actually find useful infor
