> But to validate those transactions, you must send them to the bank over the internet

Not how it works at all, banks don't have some open API on the internet for processing card transactions

Why are so many distros running Kea as root?

Well they released the CD32 within a year or two of the PS1 launching. It was a patent lawsuit that took them down but an AGA 68020 console with a library of A500 ports was never going to make it either.

The headline reads as if this is intended behaviour but it's clearly a bug (and it doesn't even occur when I try)

It's better than the puck mouse and Mighty Mouse at least

> For whatever reason, Software Engineering and Hardware Engineering even though they rely upon the same fundamental physics

Software engineering isn't a thing besides being an ego title.

Software is "ship now, patch later"

Hardware is engineered, it must be correctly designed from the beginning and cannot be easily modified in the field

Horrendous routing

Selling out to Russia by checks notes running a docker container

I would love to know how to strip out device support etc for things I don't need so I could get the docker image under 10 gig...

This is awesome - not only is it a ROM replacement but it can be programmed by the Amiga itself

It also has a feature where you can exchange files with a pc connected via USB

> frozen in time on some ancient version.

Yeah that's a feature of Debian stable

> no idea how to actually make money.

The money is all it's about to them - they don't even pay the developers so it is all pure profit

Open Source Laptop project*

* Requires commercial EDA package that will cost you more than a laptop

The BASIC interpreter on most of those other computers was written by Microsoft

The A500+ already had ECS graphics, up to 2MB chip ram & Kick 2.04

They're talking about the i7-6800k

The problem is that Apple does DP Alt mode in a different way top everyone else, which apparently requires a large amount of changes to the kernel

> It embraced open standards. Then extended them with proprietary plugins. And then extinguished alternatives by making their plugins incompatible.

Which open standards?

What software existed before VSCode that would somehow have been compatible with VSCode plugins if not for this imagined villainy?

Disable TCP forwarding in SSHD

> embrace->extend

You people need to get a new catch phrase, hard to draw a connection between something MS created and "embrace, extend, extinguish"

And only one of them was a person being burnt to death

You can't even get a bare PCB manufactured anywhere else for a price even remotely close to that of JLC, PCBWay etc.

Component availability has nothing to do with that, JLC have always been way cheaper than US/EU board houses even before they started doing assembly services

> IMO it's essential to see cpu / mem / network consumption at all times

Why?

Semi related: is there some way to check what eBPF programs are installed on a system and explore what they're attached to / doing etc?

Whenever I see a problem solved with eBPFs I feel like it's also making things more opaque and difficult to troubleshoot but I'm guessing that's just because I don't know enough about it

> JLC never added the pour for me. Not even for larger boards. Not sure this is up to date.

It seems to depend on the design - how close you are to the design limits and how much copper is exposed on the outer layers.

A message someone got from JLC for an open source project recently:

> When the copper pour is less than 30% of board area, we suggest to keep at least 0.15mm trace spacing.

> Or the dry film debris might have chance make short circuit, it will make quality control more difficult

I imagine the physical factors like capacitance, induction, impedance etc will be the limiting factor

How can the SSD controller do any garbage collection if it isn't told which blocks are no longer in use?

As long as you'd never seen a Macintosh or Amiga

They wouldn't want to harm the profits of their friends big tobacco and the tax the govt get from ciggies.
