Certainly there could be an exception for localhost right?

Yes. This is very typical. What do you think Apple does with the hundreds of billions on its balance sheet? It’s not sitting in a savings account earning interest. Sure Apple uses some cash to build factories and technology but has an inter

Bingo. You think that’s bad? Try running an android tablet from 5-6 years ago.

I’m excited about this because it’s about Plan 9 but I have no idea what it is or why I should be excited. Please tell me more. I read the description but I’m not sure if it’s a time sharing system on plan 9 that the public can log into or

I can’t imagine that running games which are very old would be much more painful in a virtualized environment given the computational requirements are minimal compared to today’s modern applications. In fact, it could even be a better exper

Maybe you are thinking of Gentoo? Arch’s core and community software are distributed as binaries that have been compiled for you. The AUR provides additional software you can compile yourself but most of what makes the system run already bu

Why not use Arch Linux? The arm version is called ALarm (for obvious reasons). https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv8/broadcom/raspberry-...

I think this is more of a statement on how batteries beibg included in this language make it easy to build such things without a fuss.

That’s fine but it doesn’t prevent newer packages from being published by new owners as is happening here.

Glances seems great but every time I go to use it it’s a pain to install. Python packaging... yuck!

Dell is doing a great thing here by leading the charge on Linux laptops but I’m so glad others realize what utter pieces of shit their laptops are quality wise. Just because dell finally made a laptop that looks decent and wasn’t built to b

X1 Carbon for sure. The 5th gen is amazing and 6th gen is around the corner. The XPS 13 is good and I applaud them for the developer edition but the build quality on dell laptops is grade A rubish compared to a ThinkPad.

What I frequently have trouble with is knowing what is represented by “theirs” and “ours”. I wish it would just tell me the branch name instead because sometimes both commits are logically “ours” or “theirs”. Obviously that would only work

MacOS 10.13.2 (which fixes this) has already been out for almost a month so likely nobody will care. Patch your shit people.

While amazing in their own right, those aren’t examples of a web browser and terminal becoming one application. Those are more like the interface of one being used to manipulate the other. I think something like hyper will get us close: ht

Where does one get a vt100 like that?

Wholeheartedly agree! There is something about the McLaren though, you could use it to pick up groceries and the kids but still look civilized in a way that you can’t do with the konigsegg.

All the new lambos / f-cars are great and Tesla is making exciting things go fast but this... the F1... this is the car to end all cars. No compromise: engine bay is lined with gold, the v12 designed by bmw’s m division is a smooth fuc

Spot on! Thank you. The companies that make electronics “softer” usually provide a better experience to users. Yes it would be great if everyone went to Shenzhen and made their own iPhone from scratch but I’d much rather Apple handle the de

For people familiar with electronics yes. Most people don’t understand this and think the phone is a cheap piece of crap if the battery starts dying early.

by tbrock 9y ago
No. People are generally not educated enough about electronics to understand that batteries degrade over time. The most common way this manifests is “this phone sucks the battery dies in 10 minutes zomg I’ll never buy x phone again!”. Your

Manhattan doesn’t have bad weather at all. It’s pretty well rounded. Some days a little too hot and some days a little too cold but never heat as oppressive as Georgia or cold as frigid as Maine.

OG Facebook jumped the shark when the timeline release that made the platform visually stunning (huge photos, etc) was scrapped in favor of a redesign that had more advertising space. Not sure who made that product decision but it was letha

This depends on knowing the intervals of that type and expecting them to not change. Just trying to help. This code is entirely implementation specific.

Oooph, I'm no expert but that is not "good" C++ style. Definitely prefer using the iterator methods.

You can fix this by installing and running a local dns server like dnsmasq to cache for you: apk install dnsmasq See this: https://github.com/gliderlabs/docker-alpine/blob/master/docs...

No, that’s the easy part. I strongly dislike that auto scaling groups do not communicate with ECS (service scaling) and that updating your nodes to run a new ECS optimized ami is tedious and error prone. Want to scale up/down when you

I’m your target for this service as a large consumer of ECS that hates dealing with the underlying resources. Despite fargate being very compelling it’s priced too damn high (even without the mistake). I’d be willing to pay a premium but th
