I think this is a filter bubble thing. Considering the difference in the time of the posts, I'd say the user base that was previously commenting was mainly from the USA where Apple is king and has its own bubble. Around the world it mi

It is mostly hardware dependent. Most people don't have a clue what they are talking about. The software layer is only there to take care of buffering going towards the hardware and conversions that needs to happen such as resampling.

It's like a routing system for audio based on use case. You could say for example: "Play notifications on this device", "Play media on that other device at this volume", "Mute anything that's VOIP", e

Unix was never a single OS, it was mostly about being POSIX compatible. In the "Unix war" everyone wanted to call themselves Unix but couldn't because of AT&T trademark so they chose different names. - AIX is Unix from IB

Am I alone in thinking this reduces the essence of books as work instead of as leisure. Where you are more focused on extracting something of "value" out of it then to actually enjoy it. It doesn't have to be this reductioni

I actually work within the eSIM ecosystem and other sim related activities. And, yes, some mobile operators do indeed use the STK UI today, it's not limited to background tasks.

You'd be surprised to hear STK is still in use even today by big mobile operators. Some even go as far as to launch campaigns to install STK applets on millions of devices and customers have no idea this is happening in the background.

This is a great article. For anyone wondering about the current data storage stack on Unix-like systems today, I wrote a simple article that goes over it [1]. [1] https://venam.nixers.net/blog/unix/2017/11&#x2

I loved that series, thank you! The DNS system on Unix-like systems is such a complicated mess. Personally, I've set adsuck and my /etc/resolv.conf points to 127.0.0.1

Thank you very much, that was my goal to make it gradual so that anyone with just a bit of understanding could get through and have an overview of the topic. I've read a lot on this topic and couldn't find a page that explained th

I'm the blog's author. Can you advice on some CSS fixes, I'm not experiencing what you're describing on my phone (Chrome and Firefox) nor my desktop (also Chrome and Firefox). Could you also share a screenshot please.
