0x76··on PSD is not my favourite file format
Why is the link to a seemingly unrelated blog instead of to the actual source?
0x76··on Revision demoparty banned on Twitch mid-stream
Isn't that what Mixer did, and failed?
0x76··on Signal is having technical difficulties
I thought that it just sends push notifications without content which then wake up the app so that the app itself can fetch the message from your homeserver with encryption
0x76··on Worlds First $150 RISC-V based PC
Duplicate of: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25761469
0x76··on Atomic Typos (2005)
It isn't nicknamed disk destroyer without reason
0x76··on Lua in the Kernel?
You can't prevent infinite loops unless you've solved the halting problem right?

They could of course just limit the run time if they really wanted to make sure scripts don't run indefinitely.

0x76··on List of All Current TLDs
It appears to be called dotless domains: https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-08-30-en
0x76··on A word for a value between 0 and 1 (inclusive)
Would that include 1 however? If you take the decimal part of something then there is no difference between 0.00 and 1.00 which is I think part of the problem here
0x76··on Ventoy: A new bootable USB solution
This is one of the few multi boot USB programs that worked flawlessly first try. Would definitely recommend.
0x76··on Sqlite 3.30.0
I would definitely use it more if it played nicer having it's DB on a nfs share.

Although I don't know the underlying cause so it may be infeasible.

0x76··on 'My son spent £3,160 in one game'
This is a great case for debit cards, here in the Netherlands those are much more common than credit cards, so children (in my experience) learn to be better with money because you can't spend what you don't have, and if all they have is a couple of bucks of pocket money the potential loss is also far less.
0x76··on Dutch Telephone Outage Takes Out Nation's Emergency Number
From personal experience most routers they send to their customers are indeed rebranded ZTE routers.

This of course doesn't necessarily mean they use ZTE everywhere but can be an indication.

0x76··on Debian Riscv64 port in mid 2019
Yeah would love to have a RISC-V board with similar performance as a Pi and that isn't as expensive as the hifive unleashed. Haven't found anything yet.
0x76··on How Screwed is Intel without Hyper-Threading?
For most of the mitigations there are kernel parameters to disable them if you wish to do so
0x76··on Bootstrap 5 will remove jQuery as a dependency
I use vuetify, beacause I like the material design better than bootstrap and it feels more modern.
