If you extracted the entire thunderbird folder from the archive instead of attempting to execute a single binary in a compressed archive, you could have avoided this entire flame war. And you would have had a functional email client

A Raspberry Pi may be more useful for your ARM build server related tasks, as the PinePhone runs on battery, has only one USB C port, etc. If you are developing applications for the PinePhone or other mobile viewports, then absolutely the PinePhone is for you.

I don't think the elitism here is necessary or even the root of the issue of code contributions. The apps currently present in these PinePhone operating systems were developed and are supported by knowledgeable and hardworking PinePhone users, but the fewer developers there are, the more limited the support is.

It certainly depends on what feature or what app you would like to work on. Mobian and Manjaro are both on GitLab, and the public is able to create an account. Issues there may be marked Help Wanted or similar.

In regard to motivation to continue programming, that can be the most difficult. Overall if you are proud of your work and find it useful yourself, you will probably continue the habit of contributing and supporting your code.

Pine64 itself is a hardware company. The software side is community-driven, and UBports (the old Ubuntu phone OS) is one of the operating systems you can install on your PinePhone.

It is frustrating to me that despite the blunt verbiage about it being a beta device for software and hardware developers, people even here are griping about it being not ready for everyday use. If a free and open-source mobile operating system is missing software support for a feature you want, please contribute to its development.

That's the vendor lock-in to the walled garden app stores. It works, and if you want to break the cycle, you need something new.

This should have happened months ago. The damage is done

Yes, making claims about vaccines with without basis is "anti-vax"

This link is displayed on the homepage from the button labeled "Subscriptions" and is part of the main site-wide hamburger menu. How is it people miss this feature? I have always used it as my main YouTube home page

Look at the time of arrival/departure for the customers. Case A arrived before Case B and Case A left before Case B left. On both sides of the door (or any other surface), Case A would have touched it before Case B. Despite this, Case B spread it to Case A.

This seems like a CTF trick. If I were faced with this problem, I would do an SSH local port forward, and then just wget the file, hosted locally with python -m SimpleHTTPServer

"The Moderators of /r/lockpicking" would be a more apt title.

I half-ironically propose it is meant to be read as "no, you are"

I have studied information and software security. I am interested in software development as well as code auditing, penetration testing, etc.

Not quite sure how to contact you... users.sf.net leads to sourceforge.net/project/users which is a 404 page.

I'm graduating with a degree in Computer Science in two weeks. I would like a job in software engineering or cybersecurity. The most recent books I've read for industry knowledge are The Web Application Hacker's Handbook and The Art of Software Security Assessment.

My college just started pushing this as well, but missed an important point: some professors already use Creative Commons textbooks. I'm currently using one in my proofwriting class - and my professor demanded we have a print copy. I've only taken one computer science course that required a non-free book, and that was because the professor was the author.

You get the same results on DuckDuckGo, etc. there's no search engine lock-in here.

If you think 10 miles is ridiculous, imagine for a second that many Americans frequently commute 1/3rd the width of your country.

I'm Speaker of my student parliament at my college. It is not as grand as you describe it. We only get about $250,000/semester from the college. We are actually incorporated as a non-profit through our state's general assembly, so our college has limited control over us. We have limited seats on our college's committees, and we have committees of our own which are majority-student. Committees like the Board of Education in our state have one student member from all the public higher education institutions, and they're appointed by the president of the college rather than by our student government. Our student government hasn't made huge progress on any major student issue.

Ah wish I knew this last week. Writing Xubuntu to my USB took something like 2900 seconds from a Mac.

Great service! I needed a free host to demo a class project. Works great, but the user script didn't setup right... maybe I just didn't know how to use it but I tried to follow your example. Would be great to be able to test that before running up a server.

I agree. When I first starting trying to use perl 6 (after it was fully released) and had questions, most of the replies to those questions I found were from 10 years ago, when the answer was "XYZ... but it's not finished yet". The ecosystem has 15 years of outdated documentation still floating around, and they need to organize the current documentation in a way that's helpful to new developers.

I've only ever gotten blanket spam from posting in "Who wants to be hired?"

For reference, my grandparent post's karma comprises almost 8% of the total karma on my 1200 day old account.

I come to Hacker News for the comments. Reddit comments sections usually are filled with jokes and chit-chat rather than further information on the subject. In addition, Hacker News has a better moderating system I feel, in that dang and possibly others are always reading comments and detatching off-topic threads and banning disruptive users.

That doesn't mean Hacker News is perfect, but it's the best I've found so far.

The furigana in this is very light and small - not easy to see despite beginners relying on them.
