It still needs to be connected to a host. This is an alternative to iSCSI. Instead of using the SCSI protocol, it uses the NVMe protocol.

No, I didn't try. For me, the fact that modules serialize Python code into a zipfile then execute it makes it really hard to have something efficient. I also don't understand why RedHat is not helping Mitogen which could help solv

Hey! I am one of the author of the article. This is not really an abstraction on top of Ansible. Just a tool to generate configuration files from templates as Ansible is pretty bad at this (slow, not providing a line number in case of probl

Unfortunately, most people won't change their browser defaults. It doesn't mean they won't be annoyed by the bad visuals.

I always find builtin fonts difficult to pair when you want to use monospace for code. If you take Times New Roman and Courier New for example, Courier New is quite larger visually, so you would need to use a smaller point size for it. But

IE 10 has no TLS 1.2 support. I think you can now safely drop it.

For Zsh, there are better stuff available. For example, you can use `cd +<tab>` to change to a past directory. And instead of aliases for `.....`, you can use: # Expand ... to ../.. function vbe-expand-dot-to-parent-dir

Is that robust? Depending on the system, libc, compiler, some includes may be unused while others may be needed.

From Twitter feeds, it seems many people cancelled their credit card in case of a fraud. This is quite annoying. Hopefully, some of them also have been told about that by their banks.

They say it's mostly bandwidth cost. But 143TB/month is around 500Mbps. If they were to buy it themselves, at the time, it would have been around 500$/month at most. Of course, if you use a CDN/cloud, you pay the extra c

I think the author point is that the different parameters are continuous with respect to the screen width, by opposition of just using media queries to go from 16px to 18px for example. And "continuous" is the right mathematical t

Debian packaging being complex, there are many documentations around it. Packaging practices also change, but it's difficult to know which documentation is up-to-date or not. However, the very official documentation from the project is

As for building packages for your own use, the tooling is not that difficult. The documentation is just oriented to contribute packages for Debian itself. This implies some unwanted complexity and navigating outdated documentation. Packagin

The thread shows how supply chain attacks are difficult with Debian: random people cannot really contribute to something like Apache 2 because they need to be sponsored by a Debian developer and they are being asked to do "boring"

Also, it is possible for most settings to be dynamic, which is useful on a laptop where you can plug screens, with XSETTINGS. That's what Gnome and XFCE are using. With Awesome WM, I am using a script [1] to update XSETTINGS (through x

Once you are in violation, you have two ways to fix it: stop publishing the software with the violation (and, optionally, publish a version without the violation instead) or give access to the source code. The main problem with accidental v

They seem to be unable to answer this question since Google provided no URL. Without knowing what is considered malicious, how could they check if there was anything? What if it is a false positive?

You will hand up recreating a lot of what Terraform is doing. It is not a matter of just creating resources if they don't exist. Notably, modifying existing resources in the right order is not trivial.

The main difference between a monitor and a TV is the TV comes with a picture processor (upscaling, noise reduction, motion interpolation, image blur reduction, deeper blacks, etc). I have switched from a low-priced Samsung TV to a mid-rang

The "-" is here to not error when the variable does not exist (as the topmost set is configured to trigger error on unset variables). It is meant to substitute the (empty) string on the right if the left variable does not exist.

You cannot use details inside p. Only phrasing content is allowed and details is not one of them. So, it would be valid for some rendering engines to implicitly closes the paragraph at this point. See https://html.spec.whatwg.org

Chromium is maintained by only one person in Debian. This person is currently unavailable. Debian does not have good procedures to handle unavailable maintainers. There are also older reasons why there is only one person. In the past, it wa

Well, you can try to help, but there is no guarantee that your help is welcome. You will have to do the work, then convince the maintainer to accept it. If the maintainer is unresponsive, you may work for nothing. This seems the case here:

An alternative is to reuse pytest version: exc_info = ExceptionInfo.from_current() print(exc_info.getrepr(style="long", showlocals=True))
