Also they don't support open protocols, last I checked -- specifically POP3, imap, and SMTP. I still use Protonmail, but it's a consideration to factor in.

I still find a watch more convenient than pulling out my phone.

As far as I can tell, the OP wants people to stop inventing languages and "just write good code". They're deliberately describing COBOL as exciting, new and modern to make their point.

The issue is (used to be) that they'd develop the Windows drivers, and publish them... on their website. Whereas the Linucies would bundle pretty much all the supported drivers on the install disk. Precisely because the vendors only

I prefer using UTC for both because I live in a timezone with Daylight Savings and multiple OSes always step on each other's feet and each adjust the time on their own and then you're three hours ahead.

That was a moderately common thing in those days. In particular, iirc, there used to be a cable between the CD-ROM and the sound card that let you play audio off the CD without having the (limited) CPU needing to get involved, deal with aud

They usually document their tricks in the file itself. For example, see Chapter 8 in GP's link.

You need to make one shortcut[0]: firefox --no-remote -ProfileManager Then just click that every time you want a new/different profile. It has a list, with Create, Delete, Rename buttons... I do wish -ProfileManager implied --no

I just wanted to add that I regularly run many different Firefox profiles in parallel, and it definitely supports that feature. Granted the UI could use some work, but if you make a shortcut that brings up the profile selector it works pret

It appears that it only does it for anything subdomainish -- that is, not the first part after the TLD. I tested it against .nz which has a silly mix of .{co,govt,school}.nz second-level domains and directly registered example.nz domains an

My understanding is that it's not when you focus it but when you attempt to edit it, either via double clicking or by moving the cursor.

Also, if you go into about:config and turn off keyword.enabled, the address bar will no longer search. It's very useful if you don't want to Google internal/client URLs just because you accidentally copied a space at the star

What is it that bothers you with that quote? It seems fine to me.

The "bug" being systemd making all sorts of undocumented assumptions about the environment it's running it?

Alright, but they're designed for you to read through config.h (note that these settings aren't inlined) and adjust them for your system before building a binary. They're very explicitly not designed for a "grab your ven

Which is not an unfair assumption given they do remove some things.

I think their point was that unless you're willing to accept Minitrue you don't have an authoritative source of truth to check against.

Yes, that's pretty much life. It'd be great if we could provide all the support anyone could need, but we haven't really found a way to do that yet. More cynically/controversially, I wonder where she got the impression t

vim used to have this listed in :help design-not - Vim is not a shell or an Operating System. You will not be able to run a shell inside Vim or use it to control a debugger. This should work the other way around: Use Vim as a componen

Thanks. That looks quite interesting.

A coalition and a party are a little different, though. In particular, even if the coalition lines are clear even before the election, voters are able to allocate their vote to a specific party within the coalition and apply some guidance t

Based on my experience, that means they "developed the solution" out of entirely off-the-shelf existing software/infrastructure.

Do you know how they're solving the problem of the language expecting a `default(T)` to exist for every type?

I've noticed that too, and it helps, but I tend to navigate with Ctrl(+Shift)+Tab, so eventually I'll briefly skip over it and it'll start playing.

Youtube is the worst, because not only does it autoplay, but for the first 2s or so it's faffing around with JavaScript so no matter what you do in that time it will subsequently start playing. Like, it'll show up as "playing

I'm guessing it's because of the First Amendment.
