We had a HN thread a few weeks back on the K-9 Donations blog, basically the K-9 Play version is still the old client UI (but the betas are not 100% feature complete); you can opt-in to the K-9 beta on Play or F-Droid and get the new UI exp

The [ character is actually the program called "test"[1], so you can think of it as just running grep or sed or any other external binary/program, whereas the [[ replacement is shell-specific builtin; this blog is not using &

I was lucky to test into the gifted program in high school in the mid-late 80s in poor rural US nowhere, it worked exactly like that - kids demonstrate ability to get selected (not race/status), as the resources were very slim. It al

A bundle is basically what you see as an application in macOS launcher; under the hood, each app is actually a subdirectory with a bunch of things in it, which presents as a single-clickable in the GUI. I would interpret this to mean "

That's fantastic to hear - while I have your ear, as a WCG cruncher I did not want to (be forced to) join Team Gridcoin in order for the work to be counted. Along with above work, has the WCG requirement to join Team Gridcoin been lift

In it's heyday during 2018 it got up to 15-17 cents (USD), but by the end of 2018 it was at 1/2 cent and by the end of 2019 it was at 1/10 cent. It's been delisted from most of the major exchanges and pulled from wallet

I tried out Gridcoin a few years back in it's $0.05 days, its at ~$0.01 now - at the time you had to "buy in" about $100 USD to have enough collateral to work solo (stake to get credit rewards), otherwise you had to join a m

I wake up and see the HackerNews downvote train has hit myself and you, when what you said is 100% correct; gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com is both IPv4 and IPv6. The network I'm on right now (VPN to work) cannot service IPv6 and I cannot c

In my travels there's a significant portion of the internet which is not IPv6 capable; for example the World Community Grid failed for me when trying to use pure IPv6, and they send emails about things. I'd currently not risk usin

Your salty demeanor is misdirected at the messenger, and that issue is literally the top bullet item on the developer's blog post as what the money will support to get coded. Be nice.

Absolutely, it works (and has worked) with EWS for me reliably over the years, I've never actually used ActiveSync on my (personal) devices, as that gives my company control (MDM) over my device to remote wipe it. I've used AquaMa

I'm afraid I've never used it with direct Activesync; my Exchange connection has always been EWS/OWA-based (whatever they call the web endpoint now in O365 hosted Exchange).

I've read that starting with 21.xx they won't even produce ISO media with the normal installer on it, we'll get the Live version and nothing else. Time will tell.

I have licenses for both Nine and AquaMail with the same purpose (operates with work-required MFA via O365+adfs+RSASecureID token) and would highly encourage you to look at AquaMail. If you thought Nine was configurable, hold on to your hat

Canonical now goes far, far (far) out of their way to hide the normal ISO installers. I mean, they try and bury them so deep that I can only find them now by googling for the name of the ISO I already have. Find your path to this page easil
