I tried a number of times already through Privacy Redirect and I really want to like it, but it just doesn't cut it mostly speed-wise. E.g. teddit takes about twice as much time to load subs as reddit does, and that's already not

Similar story here. Yes I'm addicted to internet, but no that didn't have any effect on how much I read. Probably because of the habit (did this when I was a kid already): I read about an hour, in bed, right before going to sleep,

We're talking installing tools by clicking around, aren't we? Not sure if you mean this literally, but I'd rather have a fellow developer who shows me an automated way to do (most of) this, meaning the devloper realized tha

Hmm, I see what I mean wasn't super clear. Of course they are valid lifelines as long as they work. My point was about that working condition though; think battery charge not being exceptional, seems to drop dead easier than when dropi

I wish it had covered practical tests more thoroughly. As in: did the phone communication effectively drop dead once in the cages which measure well? Looks very likely based on those attenuation numbers, but still: 'question everythi

People should be able to feel secure in the tech that they use, in the companies that they entrust their information with. I can never tell whether I'm paranoid, or worried for good reasons, but cases like these + mass leaks which ha

This is basically treating the TLD like the next buzzword, but in the end: does this have any practical effect apart from being cool in the eye of the owner? I mean I've been there and done that, but all things considered it doesn&#x27

It's the typcial 'one-stop for everything' problem: it's not bad and even pretty good in some things it does, but for each of its uses one can probably find a dedicated better product. Something which makes no sense fo

Cynical, or realistic because everyone has seen what the consequences of such projects can be? Progress can still be good, just like it never was if it also means there are severe downsides and they are just ignored for the sake of progress

Always wondered how Google can pull it off then. I assume their legal team figured out the threshold of what they can do, and now they do threshold - 1 so "it's ok"?

Perhaps not the right thread, but: is there anything like 'follow mode' in other editors like Sublime Text/VSCode/Visual Studio editor? I'm now emulating that with e.g. 'new view into file' followed by man

Just speculation here Exactly, and not really correct. Building on the commandline, no VS used at all, still has the same problem. It's really just the compilation istelf which is the main factor.

No but it would be very straightforward to do something like what the OP does, and then instead of using tail you just pipe the grep result for PWD into fzf. Which has some advantages: all commands instead of last n, plus of course the kill
