Linux and Windows can both see each others filesystem, but they are visible at specific mount points in each environment. You can't just use /home/chx/todo.txt as a path from any Windows application, but you can find tha

I'm using it on my tablet instead of previously using a VMWare image and msys+mingw+cygwin. The main advantage over a VM is no resource partitioning: on a 4GB RAM tablet with 64GB eMMC, you can't allocate more than 2GB RAM to a VM

I did not try GUI stuff, but when my tablet went to sleep while executing a long-running command, when I returned to the bash shell, the command failed with a message stating "interrupted syscall" or the like. Not sure if this is

It's an entirely unfair comparison - Canonical only has to support a single phone model, while Google would have to support hundreds.

I agree. Both JS and Lua have a pretty limited standard library, but Lua is a dead simple language with a few simple mechanics that can be used to achieve complicated concepts. I haven't got major experience in either language, but I f

The comparison of Android updates for non-Nexus devices versus this device is a little unfair. This is pretty much the only Ubuntu phone with significant sales numbers. This is the result of a cooperation between Canonical and bq. This is p

Another definition I could see working: a language that is used in projects bigger/more complicated that its own compiler or standard library.

What's the point of posting this? Pointing out how small and elegant a real world language implementation can be?

You need to enable untrusted sources hidden away in a settings menu somewhere, and click past a nasty warning informing you of how dangerous outside software can be.

Important bit to note here: the two year timeline is probably only feasible for low end devices, like the MacBook and MBA. Towards the higher end, ARM can't hope to field anything in that timeline to compete with even todays i5 or i7s

libreboot is a BIOS/firmware replacement, and works only on x86 and ARM. The chip in this article is a microcontroller, not a full-on application processor. Seems like libreboot would be senseless on a platform such as this. I don&#x27

I wouldn't put it past Trump to encourage radical christian violence, whether that would be terrorism is in the eye of the beholder. Erdohan certainly is using the situation to crack down on national opposition and get as many separati

Why would you need KVM access, you can activate their rescue image to boot from, which allows you to mount your hard drive and inspect the system?

I was mistaken, I thought they had one in Frankfurt, but it seems the closest they get is Strassbourgh, Near the French/German/Belgian border.

Do you mean through their server bidding? Because those old pieces of junk are known for being stacked with near-failing hard drives.

Interesting. I'm currently using servers by OVH, which compete in the same low-end segment using their Kimsufi[1] offering, and have datacenters in France, Canada and Germany. Paris is close to me, so these might be interesting for VNC

This was the first thing I noticed as well. I mean, that's from an age where Java and C++ libraries, frameworks and build systems were nowhere near as advanced as today. Scheme has seen little investment in their infrastructure and eco

If you look at the changes, you'll see most things are pretty simple: * CMake files are expanded to handle an Android target. * Code that checks for specific defines or values like __FREEBSD__ || __LINUX__ now have an added condition t

Those old operating systems are quite a pain in VirtualBox. Qemu does a much better job, in this case. VirtualBox's emulated hardware is too new for some systems, and Win98/Win95 flood the CPU during idle time (because that's

A bit odd to see them all labeled "runs out of Europe". I understand why they do this, but it's not like European hosting is a bullet proof solution for invasive snooping or data requisition.
