I set up an RSS-to-Telegram bot on fly.io connected to this feed https://rpilocator.com/ and it helped my buddies get a bunch.…

Until they kill the SE I think luxury goods comparisons are silly. It’s not like flagship Android devices are cheap either.

Paid subscription podcasts are very popular nowadays. It’s essential to add your paid RSS feed to an app.

I think you were absent when this happened years ago. Part of their marketing was “No subscription fees” and the premium was marketed as “lifetime”. It was a pretty big bait-and-switch and the r/…

I’ve run a couple Telegram bots on Fly’s free tier and it’s been very slick - I especially like the remote docker builders they added recently. Remote docker building is ideal vs. having to debug my l…

I’m imaging a future where people are using Tor to access the hot new TikToks.

Something tells me they’ll type “sudo” into the shell pretty fast and be very surprised.

I’ve posted it here before but the frustrating state of OpenBSDs filesystems is a big issue for me putting it into production.

I would go so far as to say it’s misinformation, surely there’s no payment processors that would fine them for that.

I have a fascination with retro computing and enjoy collecting vintage computers whenever the opportunity presents itself. Best one was at a yard sale when I did my usual “do you have any old computer…

Are you able to purchase directly from Sony? My friends have gotten a ton of PS5s that way.

They just port WebKit usually.

Firefox OS was built from a lot of Android internals.

The videos Xiph did a while back are excellent for understanding some digital audio concepts (though it’s somewhat dense with jargon). https://www.xiph.org/video/ …

My friends and I would listen to The r/NoSleep Podcast during sleepovers, it was a great resource for Reddit generated creepypastas. https://www.thenosleeppodcast.com/ …

Unless you’re going to a lot of highly crowed but localized places I don’t think you’ll see the benefits of mmWave beyond showing off to friends at a special street corner.

I believe that’s Chrome’s decision - like on Android. I’m using Firefox Focus with its native Content Blocker.

Always? I was under the impression it’s taking a lot longer for phones to get rooted.

I think it’s pretty common to install the HWE kernel on Ubuntu.

Is there anything wrong with MIT or the more succinct ISC license? Is the attribution portion a sticking point?
comment
That’s interesting. What kind of selection do you have? There’s a pretty big craze over the Buffalo Trace distillery lately. Their normal bottle - just called Buffalo Trace - is the most bourbon bourb…

I believe https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ is the biggest, though I believe there was drama surrounding them.…

I say whisk(e)y of any type lean towards the right, wine is left, steak can be a unifier, but chicken might get you called "soy".

I am young (zoomer) retro computing hobbyist and it’s great to have these saved for future generations. A lot of stuff I read on the internet assumes prior knowledge of terminology at the time. Decodi…
