Yeah, I actually found a lot of great music from Spotify's suggestions that I wouldn't have listened to otherwise. However, their suggestions for me are now stuck in such a specific (and frankly kind of weird) musical niche that t

I think you misunderstood the site (which is understandable, because it's pretty confusing). It's not estimating when you'll get your order. It's telling you that the people at the front of queue placed their order 23 da

Well I certainly can't blame you for that. However, it's far from clear whether the change to the catechism can even be reconciled with prior teachings at all. I only linked to one article among many, but there is considerable con

I seem to recall there was a brief period of time when gchat federated with both XMPP and AIM, and I was using Gajim to chat with users from both of those services without a bridge (or at least, the bridge run by Google/AOL was invisib

I think Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg is probably the better book, especially for the Hacker News crowd. There's an extraordinary precision and simplicity to Fogg's book, not only in the writing and presentation of the material, but al

I just looked into this issue over the weekend, since my current phone is now EOL. The newest phones from Google and Samsung just upped their support lifetime from 3 years of software updates[1][2]. Their newer phones now get 3 or 4 years o

My most common use for `dd` is using it with `sudo` to direct the output of a unprivileged pipeline to a root-owned file. Instead of running `echo hello >/root/test.txt`, which will fail, I use `echo hello | sudo dd of=/ro

I think the solution that NixOS uses would work for Emacs too. Just define a single variable that declares which default values to use (in NixOS, it's system.stateVersion). Then packages (including internal packages) can update their d

There's Tow-Boot[1] for UEFI support. It looks like they support the Pinebook Pro but not the Rock64. I'm happily using it on my RockPro64, although I did need to disable USB initialization to get it to boot on mine[2]. [1]: http

Q-Emu for me, with stress on the first and last syllables so that it almost rhymes. It probably sounds more like I'm spelling out Q-M-U.

I don't think I'm ignoring anyone, but I really like living in a society where goods are actually available for purchase. All I'm saying is that that's such a good thing that it counts as value added by the scalpers. The

Yep, in other words they are now available to buy. So availability increased without having to increase supply.

No that's wrong. If you have $850 right now you can buy a PS5. If nobody on earth marked up the price, you wouldn't be able to buy one for any amount (without getting very lucky or expending a lot of effort to find one).

by yepguy 5y ago
That would only be true if there were actually enough PS5's to go around, but the scalpers bought them all up anyway. There's real value in the products actually being available to buy at all, and the only reason they're avai

Yes, but then you have to worry about routing again. The whole point of something like Tailscale or Yggdrasil is to handle the routing problem for me.

Age is much simpler to use in nearly every way, whether that's interactively (keys are just files!), in scripting, or in implementation. I'm still sticking to gpg for the foreseeable future, but between age and sequoia[1] I'm

Android Password Store itself is keen to add age support[1], but I don't know of anything usable right now. You could probably use gopass in termux in the mean time. [1]: https://github.com/android-password-store/A

A few pass-related projects are working on an age[1] backend in addition to gpg. I think gopass already has support for it. [1]: https://age-encryption.org/

Yep. Some of us still use the PgUp/PgDn keys, even! I don't ever remember encountering a scrolling animation that handled them sensibly.

My guess is that when they decided to rewrite the web front-end in React, they also put off any major mobile updates until they could port the mobile apps to React too. Hopefully there is a big mobile update coming soon now that ProtonMail

I'm highly skeptical of the twisting motion they seem to be encouraging here, which is normally just asking to be injured. I guess it would depend on how much their exosuit actually helps with that. As far as bending at the knees thoug
