I have OpenBSD running on my old 2004 Centrino notebook (I might be lagging 2-3 versions behind, I don't really use it, just play around with it) and it's fine until you start playing YouTube videos, that is kinda hard on the CPU.

Not as elaborate a story, but in a former office we had special office chair that, when you sat down with a bit of force it would switch off one or two specific monitors. That also took a few minutes to debug why this one coworker came back

I have relatively good experience with both Rust and Go here. It still works and maybe you need update 2-3 dependencies that released an incompatible version, but it's not all completely falling apart just because you went on a vacatio

I get 16% deduction for having text links (no js, no embeds) to twitter and facebook, one each. Thanks for reminding me to remove these, but "how dependent your website is on Non-EU services." is just 100% wrong here. edit: ok, I

I have one of these and it was really nice in the first 1-n years. People gamified it and then it sucked, but the idea wasn't so bad. One would expect people would not stoop this low for a free T-Shirt.

Hi, it looks like you are drawing a human. Humans do not have eyes of this size. Also the nose can't just be an upside down v. Why are you even drawing Manga, freak? Don't forget to color this panel. -- the Clippy for comics

That's a weird comparison because it's a mechanical and deterministic task. Bad autocomplete is just a bad algorithm. As far as I know, (word) artists are usually following the grammatical (or orthographic) rules of their target l

I would phrase it as: NAT accidentally "breaks" or "makes harder/impossible" something which yields increased security, under some circumstances.

The first time that happened to me I went on a small rant about some minor health issues and the state of the world in general and that settled the conversation with an overseas colleague. It was later that I found out that "how are yo

I had not noticed the rounded corner in the edge of my screen until now because I use a dark background and usually have some window maximized. This is a screenshot without this tool: https://stuff.art-core.org/2026/osx

Anecdata: I've never experienced any noticeable annoyance with my T470p (i7-6820HQ) but with my new (old) NUC with an i3-3217U every time you go compile some Rust or C++ it's already a bit annoying (I'm running xfce and Firef

So you're simply not interested in reading any random website by random people who don't see a benefit of establishing any form of trust, especially if should not be connected to their official government IDs? Or to put it differe

Half of the things you mentioned only came out after 2014. My Chrome wants to print with Comamnd-P. But I'm not disagreeing in principle, I personally use so many of these fuzzy search things in so many apps, all with different keybind

Popularized, probably true. But now I wonder which (maybe default?) keybinds I had for this in tiling window managers before Slack existed. And no clue when and how OS X introduced cmd-space.

I think the problem is that there is Erlang, the syntax, then Erlang, the features, and then there's OTP. It's a bit much all in one if you might have not done FP before, and then only with C-like syntax languages (e.g. Java). Whe

Same here, I've only been using it for a bit and have 100% been ignoring the JS part and the only time where I felt I needed to think about it for a moment was when I was writing a patch for someone else's code that did not ignore

I kind of disagree (personally, not out of principle). The first time I've written my own bookmark manager was like 25y ago, before del.icio.us - which I used, then I got on pinboard, lately I've been self-hosting linkding. I tota

I'm much more interested in the power story here. Software is easy ;) - did it come with a wall plug? - do you trust that wall plug to be on 24/7? (I've had terrible ones) - did you have to buy any extra cables? (&quo

Just by being written in JS/TS and using node I suppose keeping it running is a task of its own (or keep a node_modules folder of 500MB) - compared to a hugo binary that will most probably work on any linux or mac for the next 10 years
