Cygwin (64bit) didn't work for me in the latest creators update (actually I think it broke even before that). Now I am trying things using WSL itself, so far it has been a productive move. File permissions and security descriptors prov

Based on my own anecdotal observations within IT, few examples: - Relative size of CS departments (enrolments) and how standalone they are as a faculty now vs 10-15 years ago - Observations of how many parents who work in IT recommend to th

I would distinguish between PhD and IT work when it comes to 457 visas. In practice 457, within the IT field at least, has rarely served its intended purpose and often been misused. Likewise it has deterred many locals from considering IT a

Testing himalayan pink salt within this study would have been good for comparison (sea vs non-sea source of salt).

aafire(1) is fun too, especially in colour with fixed term font. Likewise aaxine(1) which renders videos in ASCII art.

I am sure that Chrome users have similar if not higher level of history analytics/statistics but most of it seems to be only available to Google itself and not the end user. Yes there is the web history Google provides but it is very b

Some of the dual metal build coins suffer from faults when they are exposed to cold environments. Once can test for this by placing the coin inside a freezer and observing one of the metals shrink to the point where it disconnects from the

Good info. Just to add onto the speculation as to why so many new places are vacant at Docklands I would say that it has to do with foreign owners who want to park (secure) their money outside of their country. We've never had so many

DA is one of the web's icons and it complemented the rise of CGI extremely well. For me the site was at times educational helping explore software tools others used to create their works of art. Screenshots on the other hand were extre

There is another throwback for me here when one of our clients had disabled Citrix file transfers and only allowed text based clipboard (due to imposed security policies). So we had to: - zip a directory hierarchy or a single file uuenc

Thanks that's the form of the function I was referring to. Indeed as previously mentioned there are xmodem/uuencode alternatives but none of them would be as efficient and reliable as native SFTP/SCP.

I wish they would finally implement file transfers via copy/paste mechanism inside an active terminal window. As far as I know this feature would be unique across platforms. If someone does know of an SSH terminal client that does this

I would love to see manufacturers enable this feature instead of artificially crippling the software/hardware found in the phones. Tuning into local tourist information broadcast is something that you cannot completely substitute with

I wonder what impact (if any) this will have to Samsung's vast customer base. Somehow I think there would be contingency plans in place from risk management perspective. Samsung is a large competitor in many industries and that on its

I certainly hope that the performance/price is on par with the competition Intel used to get from AMD back in the Duron and Athlon XP days. Ryzen seems to be fairly low power consumption as well which should help with lowering the cool

Yes the shaped skins with the notion of "big" "medium" and "small" window sizes are quite unique notion to Sonique. Personally I have not seen this 3 way size concept in other applications (it was very handy ut

Winamp has seemingly reached its final version and it still does the job just as well as for the past 20 odd years. Even more so than its defunct competotor Sonique https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonique_(media_player)

I second this choice. So far Vivaldi has had very frequent updates and the navigational GUI aspect of the browser have the swiss army knife feel to it (not quite up to the par of Opera 12.x days but getting there quickly). Vivaldi's na

Google should figure out a way to better expose the features of their web services. Most often we seem to find out about a Google feature by chance alone.

I agree, the Presto engine was (and still is) super efficient. We may see something similar come out of the Vivaldi project which is headed by folk who led the Opera <= v12 development who know very well what was lost when Opera moved to

This entire ordeal would have been so much less impactful to both Samsung and the end users if they simply went down the old and proven replaceable battery route. Not to mention it'd very likely be much more economical and eco-friendly
