get 'em!

I was a Linux user for a long time, then switched to Mac for working hoping that would result in less fiddling with things and more actual working. That strategy worked for quite a while, but lately I've been frustrated by myself and all my coworkers getting hit with the keyboard issue, and one of them had a swollen battery. Lots of random crashes.

I've been slowly switching back to using a Lenovo ThinkCentre running Linux (which requires a lot less fiddling these days) and I'm really starting to like it. I just get shit done again. Oh, and I can install any software I want without having to go into settings to allow it...

Even on Mac I ran a Windows VM for some things, I now do that same thing on my Linux machine.

Oh, you must be new here :)

Honestly, it sounds like "normal bad" to me. I've seen worse and yeah it sucks. :(

Good luck to you though!

> the ability to be able to do so is the license’s entire point.

I second this.

You have to consider any non-compete and NDA agreements as well however.

I love this, but wonder if the cost of shipping is worth the impact... I hope so!

Also, if you ever visit Khao Yai I can't recommend "The Frog Resort" enough. What an awesome place to stay and a beautiful park.

Not being an android user and not being familiar with the Play story I might have glanced over "Develop App" having internally misread it as "Developer App" and thinking it was a category, not the developer's name.

Don't forget that most Unix-like operating systems and Linux distributions use package managers, typically one installs the package then configures some number of config files to get the thing up and running. Some are working right after the install. The problem with packaging web applications is that most don't take into consideration things like File System Hierarchies and are very difficult to package. If you have any sort of application and want it to be easy to install, make it easy to package (even closed source apps can benefit.) or package it yourself.

Anytime I have to install some software (AWS' agents such as inspector and cloudwatch are particularly bad about this) and I have to extract some tarball or curl into `sh` I cringe. RPM/Apt/etc is right there, ready for you to use! Signature verification, config file handling, etc!

I finally got it to load, must have been something on my end.

Well that is an interesting development...

In January 2020, Pine Microsystems Inc. was dissolved [1]

Anyone know if they just closed their US entity and now operate from another country or are they having financial difficulties?

There's quite a few more recent CVEs for Cherokee.

I'm not sure yet what's more interesting, the information the site intends to provide (what actors have passed away) or accidentally coming across terrible B movies I didn't know existed like "Aliens vs Titanic", "Christmas Twister", and "Elf Bowling the Movie".

I'm really surprised to see how many people appreciate this feature. I've tried to use it many times but I've found that when I'm watching a video I either want to give it my full(screen) attention (movie, entertainment) or have it in the background entirely (music, news, podcast.) I've personally not found a use for it and end up closing it after about 5-10 minutes.

I could see this being very useful.

I recall Joyent's solution to this (similar) problem where you have an object stored somewhere (e.g. S3) and you want to use that object in a container, but you have to copy it over HTTP or something to do any work on it and the object could be very large.

With Joyent's Manta[1] you would spin up a container right where an object is stored (instead of bringing the objects to the container via NFS.) Also has map reduce support.

Two other approaches come to mind:

- Give interesting talks (e.g. James Mickens, Paul Irish, Bryan Cantrill)

- Create interesting projects (e.g. Linus Torvalds, Guido van Rossum, Monty Widenius)

I'm not sure that any of the people in my examples sought out to brand themselves though.

This is very welcome, now how about organization-level branch protections please!

coreboot utilizes binary blobs though

I wonder if it was null terminated.

Some services use Gravatar[1] or Libravatar[2] but a user has to first register their email with those services.

I can also recommend Vultr, they have one killer feature that I've not see with other VPS providers: They let you upload custom ISOs

Something crazy is going on inside Opera. My opera extension has been pending review since January 12th, Firefox, Chrome, and Edge have all accepted it.

I was wondering the same thing, then remembered that I have no expectation of privacy when using a phone anyways... that's where we are today. bleh.

I'm confused. Is this a waiting list for the waiting list SaaS? Or an example of the waiting list SaaS?

> radio listening had risen by 15%.

How can the radio station detect that radio listening increased?

> once you have set up your rules for your most frequently used applications, it isn't really an issue

I can second this, also if you're overwhelmed you probably have a lot of garbage applications making too many outbound network requests to trackers and who knows what else which is actually nice to know about. Chrome-based browsers and Electron based apps seem to be particularly awful about this. My HP printer app tries to connect to Google Analytics, Microsoft RDP phones-home before connecting to a session. I really value that kind of insight and enjoy being able to control it.

It was HARD to read through this whole article, but I did it anyway and I totally disagree.

The argument that private companies are already tracking you doesn't exactly hold up, you don't have to install Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Messenger, Google Chrome, or whatever else on your phone. There's ways of limiting tracking by private companies (not always easy for every user but there are options).

Thanks for the info!

I've looked at this a few times but never given it a go. Going to actually try it this week for $DAYJOB.

One nice-to-have would be support for C, does the C++ extension work for C as well?

Thanks!
