I would look at Antergos, the (more) beginner friendly Arch distro. Arch is a always-new rolling release system with a lot of user choice. And contrast to popular belief it is my (multi-year) experience that rolling release systems are as s

A good Thinkpad... T, W or P-series... Some of the X are also okay... Please realize that not everything named Lenovo is the good ol' thinkpad-quality... If it has onsite warranty it is probably okay....

Usually, 192.168.y.x/24 where y is the birthyear of the oldest person living there at the time of the install (so no renumbering)... I.e. my network is 192.168.79.0/24, my parents is 192.168.48.0/24, my brothers is 192.168.82

Yeah, I try to only take clients that have been in the game for a few years - or really go heavy on the "facts" speak... Most clients are reasonable, but the newb ones simply don't know the realities and mechanics. And it&#x2

Sure, the client is always paying for it anyways... If he doesn't wanna pay for defect correction, you are just going to spend a lot more time on that before you deliver (i.e. your estimates goes up).... Finding subtle bugs is increasi

I think the Netgate C2758 looks suspiciously like a rebranded SuperMicro 5018A-FTN4 (of which I own two)...

It depends on the programming language the project is done in. Read the README in the repository (most have some) For auto-tools (C) programs, usually: ./configure --prefix=$HOME/some-thing make make install your program should th

Sorry but no. This makes your private key compromised by default... The most important rule of public key encryption is... Never (really!) let anybody else handle your private key... And why should I trust some random website for not storin

In short... Proliant Micro Servers (the black "g7" not the silvery g8's)... Cheap, 4 bays, ECC mem and an (optional) mangement card... but I don't know if it is fast enough for you (probably not....)

My advice: Boot a linux live distro (like Knoppix or systemrescue cd), move your data to an external harddrive. Reinstall OS (factory reset?) and learn :)

If you can use in-ear phones and don't need to have any contact with your surroundings during your music, the ER4 from Etymotic Research are by far the best I have ever had... They dampen the environment so much, that even when I have

I have a (homemade) thin bash-wrapper around gnupg, which stores the passwords in a folder, that is backed up by git-annex.. The main work is done by a vim-autocommand-group (augroup) which runs the file through gpg on open/save if it

I mounted it (by the ways of qemu-nbd and so forth) and chrooted into it. It seems like there are no accounts with a valid password in it..

I was a nightowl before (going to bed after 01 and getting out of bed around 09), but decided to change it. The basic point is, the body needs enough (consistent) sleep. I go to bed between 22 and 23 now, and get out of bed before 06 everyd

The rehashing of "tired arguments" is usually because the ones receiving it (Mongo-users in this instance) are in love with their technology and just dismisses the issues... There is a reason that RDBMs with SQL is still alive alm

I agree wholeheartedly, the value of a strict schema and a (mostly) standardized query format providing a known good strategy to get the result - and a culture of taking care of its customers data's safety - really is the selling poin

Having a W530 and typing a lot, I can tell you that I will never wish to go back to the old keyboard (having had multiple older T-series). The new chiclet is way better when you have gotten used to it. As usual you only feel the difference

If you browse like me, you suddenly have hundreds of tabs open "for later"... This tool allows you to dump them to a file, and start over at "tab-count: 1" ...
