The conclusion is a bit weird: > But these easy switching, transition, and titling tools – even if the aesthetic is dated now – could sure come in handy in 2020s software. But NewTek still exist and their current line is a direct evolu

Not yet but I'm considering it. Though I may reconsider given the comments below :)

I still enable the search bar, that you reach with Ctrl+K, while Ctrl+L sends you to the address bar.

And they love patronizing everyone about human rights and democracy, while in practice taking model on Russia and China. The very definition of hypocrisy.

I've made a presentation about it in 2013[1]. Back in 2000, when Perl was riding high and 13 year old, Larry Wall announced "Perl 6". However Perl6 (now Raku) was hugely ambitious and not production-ready until 2015 ... So fo

It feels somewhat exaggerated. These late Panhard are notorious for their finicky, aluminium-made air-cooled engines, however the parts can mostly be rebuild from scratch using a mill, a lathe and other common workshop tools. My grandfather

Notice it has licence plates. Back then it was not uncommon to drive the race cars from wherever they were (here, Paris) to Le Mans and other racetracks, simply driving it on ordinary roads :)

It's pretty common for some low production cars. For instance many Lotus cars in continental Europe are RHD, because RHD Lotus are much more common and less expensive.

No, all Debian releases are completely supported 3 years (1 full year after the release of the new stable release) and are LTS for 5 years.
343.
by wazoox 3y ago
That's simply not true. All Debian releases have been LTS since 2014, for the following architectures : i386, amd64, armhf and arm64. All Debian releases get 1 year of full updates after the new release, and at least 5 years of updates

Plus we shouldn't be surprised that Caesar would speak in Greek rather than Latin; he spoke Greek a lot, if not most of the time (in his youth in Bythinia, then in Egypt, etc) like many patricians.

"Picking the right binary for the right architecture", isn't your OS package manager supposed to take care of that? Cross-compiling is often pretty easy if you have custom binaries. There is a big advantage to using different

What's funny is that obviously, the Barracuda "appliance" is a standard Supermicro 2U server :)

I'd wind the watch and adjust it in the morning, and will be 2-5 minutes late in the evening. But at times I would adjust it during the day while watching time close to another, more reliable time source (like a public clock in a train

I've use a 100 years-old watch as a daily driver for a few years (until it was stolen...). It was serviceable, but it was relatively expensive, so I lived with its known 2-5 minutes daily drift. I'd say that up to 10 minutes of da

The Patriot certainly is defending some potential target, however it also requires systems to protect the Patriot itself from various kinds of weapons. Air defence is extremely complex and layered when you have to be able to intercept 15000

LTO-7 drives read LTO-6, and will be available for quite a while. In 2016 I've used an LTO-3 drive to restore a bunch (150 or 200) of LTO-1/2 tapes from 2000-2003, and almost all but one or two worked fine.

There is a "last edition", the so-called Bordeaux exemplary, with annotations from Montaigne's hand; then there is a later, posthumous edition which is the basis for most modern ones, but has been modified by his family on so

And that was recently demonstrated in Ukraine, where a Patriot battery fired 32 missiles against incoming targets[1], but got hit nonetheless. It looks to me like missile defence works well in very unbalanced situations, such as Hezbollah&#

Cry me a river. CMA-CGM has made 40 billion € of profit in the past three years. I suppose Maersk and other large shipping companies are on the same boat (uh uh).

The chapter of Bertrand Russell's "history of Western philosophy" about Plotinus is a must-read (the whole book is, actually).

You're right, actually I wanted to link to some other lesser known movies like "Moscow Cassiopea" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRut4LfosD0 ) but I couldn't find them right away :)

"The Forbin Project" is available for free on Archive.org. There are also a couple of deliciously cheesy soviet SF movies from the 70s that are worth watching, like Solaris by Tarkovsky : https://www.youtube.com/wat
