RadioactiveMan··on What “technical” concerns do I have with systemd?
What do you find to be painful in using linux on a desktop without systemd?
RadioactiveMan··on Show HN: Beyondpad – New kind of note taking and data management solution
I too liked the look of this but would want to self-host.

I use Google Keep on my phone and this looks like a great alternative except that it doesn't have the incredibly useful feature of being a widget on my phone's home screen.

Hosting this service myself and an installing an app on my phone with a widget would sell me on it for sure. A hundred million bonus points if I can create a checklist and mark items off using my pebble.

RadioactiveMan··on What “technical” concerns do I have with systemd?
As a user of linux on the desktop, I've never felt a moment of concern over the fact that it takes longer to boot than did Windows. I'm not sure who is panicked by this and I'm distressed that we would solve all of our problems with init by embracing systemd.

If Gnome requires systemd, lets drop Gnome.

Can you share that playbook? In particular the truly proven findings?
RadioactiveMan··on Show HN: I made a site that allows you to discover NSFW subreddits via pics
I salute your work. If I might make a suggestion: perhaps new users should be presented with the option to make filter choices, or at least pointed in the filter's direction? I felt like I was playing russian roulette with a gun loaded with penises.
RadioactiveMan··on Linux Has Run Out of Time
I'm not sure if you meant to post a link about stonehenge, but I enjoyed it none the less.
RadioactiveMan··on Linux Has Run Out of Time
The issue with inferior Linux copies is where the original is closed source and the company hasn't ported it themselves.

Office suite compatibility issues are due to the incumbent software's closed formats. Evidently, this is a smart move to defend market share.

These aren't Linux problems, they're closed source software problems.

RadioactiveMan··on Mathematics of the ISO 8601 calendar
Poor design choices aside (looking at you, frames), calendar math is absolutely fascinating. This is mostly because of how annoying it is to have the world's schedule dictated by the poor choices of a 512 year old pope.
RadioactiveMan··on Codefund – Crowdfunding for Aspiring Coders
When I first visited http://codefund.io, I received nginx's default page. After visiting https://codefund.io, subsequent attempts to reach http://codefund.io do redirect to https.
RadioactiveMan··on Show HN: Really Good 404 Pages

RadioactiveMan··on Little Free Library
This is great. Had I the materials, I'd have gone to start building one half way through reading the front page.
