ressetera··on 31.2˝ Color EPaper Display
What is the number of frames per second (fps) someone should expect from this?
ressetera··on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS’ snap obsession has snapped me off of it
I'm using opensnitch[1] and it can block snap requests. Pretty nifty software, but it brings my machine to its knees unless I ``` sudo service opensnitchd restart ``` once in a while.

ressetera··on Install Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on MacBookPro14,1
If I'm not mistaken, I hadn't many issues installing docker on WSL.

The problems started when I docker-compose up'd a pretty basic nginx-php-mariadb stack.

ressetera··on Install Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on MacBookPro14,1
I don't have a clear image of how Docker behaves on Mac, but I had wasted a whole day trying to make it work on Windows WSL.

I'd suggest you virtualize a normal Linux host on your machine (under VMware for example) and run Docker there.

ressetera··on Disabling Snaps in Ubuntu 20.04
Snaps are great for auto updating software, especially the ones from JetBrains.

I think most users will be fine. Those of us who need more fine grained control, can have it.

ressetera··on Are Ideas Getting Harder to Find?
The implementation get trickier. Better solutions to existing problems are usually more complicated.
ressetera··on Valve's Proton Has Brought 6000 Windows Games to Linux So Far
Porting games seems pretty hard IMO. Why isn't there an intensive to port the latest Adobe CC software [1] too?

I know a few designers & video editors who use passthrough to run Adobe software on their beefy workstations, which I would also prefer as I'd rather not use multiarch on my linux system.

ressetera··on Not everyone has an internal monologue
There are also people who can't dream in color.
ressetera··on Burnout: 'Sick and tired of feeling sick and tired'
Burning out is definitely a taste from hell, if hell exists.

Exactly a decade ago I found myself talking to my mother in foreign languages on the phone, thinking I was talking to my clients. I even got used to lucid dreaming as it happened at least once per week.

Took me three weeks to get back any desire to (even think to) code again.

ressetera··on Ask HN: Less culturally loaded terms for “Master/Slave”“

ressetera··on Facebook crawls links in PDFs you send in Messenger
I doubt the downloader isn't restricted in some kind of jail.
ressetera··on Google relents slightly on blocking ad-blockers for enterprise Chrome users
Firefox had a certificate bug recently where all extensions, including adblockers, stopped working.

I'd imagine Google saw a slight increase of revenue during that period.

No wonder why they don't allow extensions on their Android browser. From everyone I know, only I am using Firefox on a Chrome device.

ressetera··on Firefox 66.0 Aims to Reduce Online Annoyances
I personally dislike the complexity of having to use the server-side calculated dimensions.

``` object-fit: cover ```

comes to mind as a client-side solution I used in the past for this problem

ressetera··on Facebook, YouTube Blindsided by Mosque Shooter's Live Video
Pewdiepie even restricted, probably temporarily, his subreddit [1]

His users were creating some pretty irritating memes out of this tragedy and he took action to moderate things until things calm down.

ressetera··on Show HN: tor_ssh.sh – One command to enable SSH access via Tor
There's also torsocks or even tsocks if you need something more battle tested.

EDIT: I stand corrected, see @buildbuildbuild reply.

ressetera··on China's social network surveillance databases are apparently leaked to Internet
Who are the leakers and how easy would it be for the government to track them?
ressetera··on Show HN: I made a site that lets you stream any torrent
I'm getting the following error [1]

You also need to add support for https, I had to disable the HTTPS Everywhere addon.

ressetera··on We Need Chrome No More
It left a sour taste in my mouth that Microsoft joined Chrome instead of investing in FireFox and helping them advance their multi-process architecture quicker.
