This probably excludes pretty much everything except probably the most boring things - public information websites, etc. Anything within the DoD, for instance, will at minimum be tagged "for official use only", which already exemp

Woz is fairly well known to have hand-assembled (on paper) the ROM monitor for the Apple II, which he then used to code Integer BASIC.

I call this 'enlightenment', because I reached it after spending way too many hours in my teens tweaking my Enlightenment window manager config rather than doing something useful.

The HiDPI point is pretty critical - many higher end laptops these days have HiDPI screens, and HiDPI desktop monitors are getting affordable. I think with GNOME you only get integer scale factors: way too tiny or way too big on most HiDPI

Just so it's clear, the previous Yubikey NEO also supports gpg-agent for SSH authentication, not just the new Yubikey 4. I've been using one for months. It presents a standard smarcard CCID interface and runs an OpenPGP applet. Th

This is an extremely common practice in the new booming "artisanal" whiskey business. Many of them come from a factory distillery in Indiana (MGP) and the profits from selling the factory stuff are used to build up a more "au

You can also defeat pretty much any zippered luggage by just jabbing a ballpoint pen into the zipper. A dinky padlock on the pulls, regardless of who has the keys, is not keeping anyone out of your stuff.

That's absolutely true, though. You are trusting the bank (and the federal insurance backing it) that when you want to draw your balance that you can. It's no different when you have bitcoin in Coinbase. I just can't see a sc

You don't have bitcoin if you just have a balance in Coinbase, so this debit card really has no connection to Bitcoin at all. No transactions will reach the blockchain when you use this card.

Why use a character like tab, which can also appear in common text, when there are control characters designed exactly for this purpose? ASCII 0x1C - 0x1F are there specifically for machine parsing of tabular data.
