I originally wanted to get the Pixel camera app working when I got started with GOS a few years ago, but then I found Open Camera and haven't looked back. Does it do something cool that Open Camera doesn't?

It's not the technology design that's that important. It's the network effect, and peoples' default trust in megacorps over volunteer projects. Both of which cannot be solved with just a protocol.

I disagree with the shooting too, but this is such a massive oversimplification of the event.

Interesting. I haven't heard of many examples. Thanks. Seems the issues that do pop up tend to be loosely related to the original wording. It was focused on quartering in homes. Though it does say "but in a manner to be prescribed

You must be new. The Constitution is an irrelevant piece of toilet paper now. The first amendment only protects you unless the people in power say it doesn't. The government will pressure private companies to censor you. This was prova

I am attempting to revive my once fairly large Minecraft server, and not being present there means suicide. What I can do is signal to them that not only am I not giving them my ID, I am no longer giving them my monthly payments ever again.

I've needed a nudge to cancel my 5 year Nitro streak. This was it. I guess if they reverse course before March when the billing cycle is over, I'll renew. Hope I'm not alone in this. The only way they'll decide to not mo

I have a spouse and kids. I still stick to my guns. Both literally and figuratively. Speak for yourself.

Super useful website. Knots seem like boring and obscure useless knowledge from a time long gone, but since gaining an interest in them as a result of getting into bushcrafting, I'm shocked at how often knots come in handy even in day-

Bought this book last year. Fantastic purchase. Love Animated Knots too. But I wanted something that was useful offline if the internet is down, or if I'm innawoods.

I'd be interested to know too. I haven't seen one, but that's probably because the majority of the BSD demographic is for servers and such, which are mostly all headless.

I don't think that was the comment I was originally trying to reply to. Strange.

There's also the people like me that couldn't historically run certain games well directly on Linux, so we have Windows virtual machines with GPU passthrough. Which would read as me being a Windows user in the Steam stats, but a L

What you sacrifice in feature parity, you gain in user freedom and principle. To me, that is a worthwhile tradeoff. Especially since it's really not that much different at this point. You're not sacrificing much in most cases now.

But standing on principle is too hard!

If I wanted to convince NATO to take arctic security seriously without having to deploy troops and resources of my own, this is how I'd do it.

Neo-Nazi anthem? Seriously? A normal song that Neo-Nazis have also taken to use? Wake me up when we actually have a white nationalist movement in this country.

I think the "social factors" section is the most significant. I've heard plenty of anecdotes of people stating that they "code defensively" in C, because it's too easy to mess things up. Whereas with a language

Assembly itself is an abstraction. UNIX should have been written in machine code.
