He was arrested in Hungary during the siege of Budapest. Everything after that is pure speculation. When he went to meet General Malinovsky he famously said he didn't know if he'd be a guest or a prisoner. I've never heard an

I use Authy for a few reasons. One is the ability to sync and use it across multiple devices. This is really convenient. But the killer is the desktop app. I've had a number of instances where someone I was helping could not get the ti

When I was in VF-302 sometimes a reward for enlisted guys who did really well was a little simulator time. They all said just maintaining flight was very difficult and the minute adversaries were added, they were dead.

Is the "hot new thing" status of zsh due to the macos change or is there more going on with other platforms? I've used both and maybe it's because I'm just not doing anything beyond normal, basic stuff - but I don&#

I don't upgrade with every version. Usually I do it on odd numbered releases. Sometimes I'll make an exception for something I really need but typically I don't have any issues at all with that approach.

I use the KDE spin when I'm doing a fresh install. I find it to be very good. I tend to tweak my desktop a bit, I don't run with the straight defaults. The software for searching and installing packages seemed to not work well las

No you aren't. And if you need to install MS Office stand by for constant Teams advertisements. I never did figure out how to turn those off.

Yes. I think it was a genius move. I'm subscribed to their channel and it is always at the top of my subscription list as being live. Having the video constantly feeding in fan submissions was also smart.

The band Twenty One Pilots references Bourbaki as an integral part of their most recent album, "Trench". They created some pretty intricate puzzles for their fans leading up to the release of the album and it was fun to watch all

I went to the repo and read the license. The article made me think it was sold but open. Lots of FOSS software has purchase options. That alone doesn't indicate if something is foss or not. The license confused me, as I stated but they

Never mind - their contributing.md document makes clear it isn't a FOSS project. --------------- I wasn't familiar with Craft. Looking at it they seem to have their own license and it seems pretty restrictive. Can anyone point t

I think the best part about Slashdot in its best days were the people. You could be reading and article about Python and it was possible to see Guido in the comments. And while that was rare, the other upvoted comments were usually high qua

I had an Oracle RAC cluster and a number of PeopleSoft servers that were incredibly difficult to get successfully patched for that change. The other super annoying thing about it is it created a window at the beginning and end of DST where

My dad took my brother and I in the early or maybe mid 80s. I remember feeling like it was falling apart faster than they were building it and it was a cool spot but didn't seem to be going anywhere. Seems it hasn't changed much.

Getting that to work consistently is a real pain in the ass. I drive around Europe a lot and I'll download maps to save on roaming data and often I've downloaded a place and my phone still wont be able to generate directions for m

The keyboard settings allow users to switch the behavior so that the function keys behave as such without holding down Fn. For me Minecraft is the driving reason for wanting physical function keys and a big part of why I still use my 2015 m

They didn't ask your parents or legal guardian? My experience in teaching hospitals is that the students back off if asked to do so but I think the request needs to come from the legally responsible person.

If they went rogue or something like that and the US government shut down their supply chain they'd be unable to fly in almost no time. Fighter aircraft take an enormous amount of maintenance to keep in an up status. This was one of th

My favorite milblogger retired, hated having a "regular" job, joined ATAC and then died not too long later flying an old Israeli fighter. I'm glad if these companies are getting newer aircraft.
