The weirdest thing is "fuck you" doesn't mean "fuck you" at all! I learned the hard way when I started to unzip :(

You can still do that, but it may not be rendered correctly in a screenshot.

I haven't seen this much bullshit in a long time. Can we just run a webserver, write the html and whatnot and call it a day? It's not like a webdev didn't have anything to do already.

A friend of mine installed MS-Windows 95 on a 386 and Weird Al Yankovic nailed it: But my machine, it's obsolete. It takes an hour just to bring up the screen!

The sandboxed build environment was a side effect of being able to bootstrap on another distro. The "claim to fame" was a fast package manager. Except there's Chimera Linux now (not related to chimeraOS) and I dare say its go

I've patched grub, the kernel, linux-util, coreutils and a dozen others. What's the point of having freedom 1 if all you get is binary packages? On other distros, having custom patches is such a chore. With portage all it takes is

The hardware people would bring was amazing. "Here's a 24-port BaseT100 hub" "I built my computer in this flight case, may I place it atop your tower?" "The network card in my PC has an integrated switch, so we

Dutch and belgian citizens are being misled over and over again. The more you'd dig into it, the less it all makes sense. All we get are documents with nearly everything censored except for very benign things. Only time will tell what&

I'm glad reader mode (in FF) fixes most of those problems.

If Steve B is behind all this, at least we have him behaving like a monkey on stage.

Where I worked in the 00s, they had rack mountable kvm. The clients were just a small box with utp and the peripherals. A double press on ctrl opened a menu and you could choose a server. Neat.
