Genuinely curious: why would I use Openfire when Prosody and Ejabberd exist?

How is it terrible? I keep hearing people say this, but I've never actually experienced any shortcomings personally. Granted, I don't really use word processors much. But when I did, I never had any.

Yeah, was looking for someone to comment this. I use it. Works great.

The (much more complicated) middle ground is to put a second GPU in your PC, boot Linux with that GPU, and then reserve the primary GPU for your gaming virtual machine (and pin CPU cores so cache isn't useless while gaming). End result

Probably referring to the fact that they only rewarded them with a candy bar for being a good employee. Which ignores the fact that they're already probably getting paid a decent salary to do their job, and being a good employee is alr

Keeping it simple is knowing that people don't get to such high places via stupidity.

I agree, and I am in favor of protectionist tariffs. But it does seem to be poor strategy to rush into high tariffs without the pieces put in the place for American industry to grow and benefit. That said, I don't believe Trump is that

I rarely touch LLMs (I think they're very overhyped and usually unnecessary), but I did find one use case that was handy recently. I was writing some Nim code that interfaced with Cairo, and one Cairo feature wasn't really documen

And to clarify, I'm not saying kill someone over $5. But if they attempt to steal something of high value (monetarily, sentimentally, etc.) and you attempt to prevent that or get it back, and they put up a likely-to-be-lethal resistanc

I agree, it was just a succinct way of putting it. It's syntactically similar, which makes it easier for Python devs to shift to using it for higher-performance stuff. Aside from that, it's its own thing with its own unique offeri

The government doesn't need to take action when I already shot him dead, because they didn't infringe on my already-existing right to keep and bear arms. The "cute wording" is important because the mindset matters. If en

It's called Nim.

I like how you both responded to GP's roast of "I agree" comments by saying "I agree". Maybe that was intentional. Anyway, I agree. I used Reddit fairly regularly before the API change, though I was already starting

Correction: Island of Atlas

Plus all the details that conveniently line up. The mountains with rivers to the north. Being south of the Atlas mountains – Atlas being the first king of Atlantis. "Atlantis" meaning "island of Atlantis" is interesting

Yeah I don't think the 4chan demographic is substantially different from the "normie" social media. It's just that everyone speaks more openly about what they already believe there, including the crazies.

Funny enough, the revelations are that a large chunk of posts come from Israel.

Or the countless people that like and use 4chan, and would never remotely consider perpetrating such a heinous act.

Do any other right wingers actually exist on HN? I swear, you guys have the same understanding of right wingers as white suburbantites have of black people.

Isn't build.zig.zon the equivalent of the manifest in that case though?

And most of the conservatives I know that are actually politically-aware are critical of both. For many reasons. Bush for his wars and the Patriot Act, and Reagan for his anti-2A policies and eternal blue-ification of California.
