I don't remember having such a CGA simulator. I suppose it would be a TSR program that I needed to run before prince, but definitely I wasn't doing that. From some research it seems that hercules was actually supported: https:&#x

I remember that I was playing the DOS version of PoP on a computer with Hercules Graphics Card ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hercules_Graphics_Card ) so I suppose the DOS version also supported Hercules (beyond CGA&#x2

What's really interesting is the place of Elixir (below Cobol and ABAP) and more of less the same as Ada. This is very controversial when comparing it with other indexes where, for example Elixir is the most beloved programming languag

In a restricted environment like a console only system these two pane file managers are very useful. I was a heavy user of norton commander (nc) back in my DOS days. Also these are useful on mobile. However I rarely use them on a graphical

My two cents: 1. When somebody communicates with you and tells you it's urgent it's usually scam. They are trying to make you do stuff because of the urgency and so scam communication will always be urgent. Here in Greece one of t

I had also build a similar (non polished) app using js: https://boombox-agw.pages.dev/ It also includes a bunch of greek rhythms; try tsifteteli!

+1 for evil helix, however the default keys are not 100% compatible with vim needing some more tweaking with the settings. For example C is not change line as expected but multi line edit mode (something not very useful with vim keybind) ..

Unfortunately this is common in many smtp servers and is configuration dependent: After you authenticate as usera@example.com you can send emails as userb@example.com.

The whole point of PGP is to actually communicate (out of band) with the party you want to sent mail to and receive his public key. It's no big deal if you really need to send a private message.

For people that use scoop and want to try Zed there's a precompiled binary they can install using scoop install zed. I tried it and the experience (mainly visually, fonts colours etc) wasn't very good so I can understand why the Z

The proper way to parse or construct nested list comprehensions as explained in pep 202 is to think like you're using normal for: for a in b: for c in a: use(a,b,c) This would be [use(a,b,c) for a in b for c in a] Everyth

For a self hosting solution I'd recommend gitea: it's a single go binary that needs almost no installation (only a config file), it's very fast, updates work great (replace previous binary and restart), supports ldap and has

This was really huge. I actually had to pass it to an LLM to get an abstract .... I didn't know about picocrypt but I already have two options for safely encrypting files: 7zip with its AES-256 (simple) and veracrypt with various alg

This great for english, but is there something similar for other languages? Could this be trained somehow to support other languages?

This is interesting, I like the way jetbrains is using the local models for auto completion. Do you know if there's a similar solution for vscode?

Yes what i had written is mainly true for designer perfumes not niche. However I'm not very much into the niche fragrances because of sampling difficulty and prices.

Have tried a bunch of Montale and mancera. Yes they have some unique perfumes, and some are potent. Unfortunately didn't find anything that it clicked to me.

Helix is great and includes a lot of stuff out of the box (file pickers, syntax highlighting, linting etc) without any configuration or installing plugins (contrary to vim or neovim). I would definitely use it but the main disadvantage is t

I'm also very tired of such articles. Each article with the same content and unfortunately more or less the same comments. Would it be possible for the moderators to penalize such articles so they can't easily gain traction simila
