Thanks - I actually used cactus and llama years ago when I got interested in playing diablo 2 again and it was really cool to try out the older versions of the game and to play around with the larger stash. Curious - I…

Tangential - I just watched this and found it very interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-N-fgKWYGU
I agree that clicking on what appears to be a placeholder but instead acts as a label should at the very least focus the input box so you're prompted to type in it. However the UI overall is pretty simple and clean.

Yeah if you give it the dimensions of a standard gaylord (48x40) it tries to stack the boxes in a really strange way with smaller boxes occupying the space below larger boxes and causing some boxes to float. I wonder if…

Good to hear. I was in the ER in March 2020 initially because I thought I was having a heart attack but ultimately with what I assume was COVID. It's been a journey but I am doing much better now too. For about 2 years…
Good point, I am not sure they can compete with the smaller arm development boards in that regard!
I agree with you about dev boards but I think their post was focused on things like used NUCs or other small x86 machines that are only marginally larger than a Pi in an enclosure and include literally everything you'd…
fwiw revving the engine while stationary wouldn't really put much (if any) load on the engine
You'de be really surprised how irrelevant a major and degree can be - for example I used to work with an engineer who carries a highly technical PhD and required extensive assistance with even the simplest tasks (often…
I _almost_ posted it to my internal team until I saw IM Used :)
You could make the argument that this is more of a GNU + Linux than an operating system unto itself.
I wonder if they will also block the thousands of users posting misleading information about covid and vaccines as well? (narrator: they won't)
I'm still missing it. If we were talking about alcohol consumption "slow down and think about it" absolutely makes sense: I might be having fun in my 20s binge drinking but there are very real negative consequences of…
To each their own, but I do not. Lenovo remains my "goto" if I have to buy a laptop (though Framework has more or less replaced them) and the main reason for that was the Trackpoint and mouse buttons.
has anyone earned that label but later been found not guilty?
It's not for everyone but I transitioned to ChromeOS for this exact reason. You still have a debian environment you can work in (run CLI, GUI apps) but the base desktop environment is ChromeOS which "just works" as they…

Any chromebook that supports crostini will allow you to run linux (debian by default) and allow you to use many dev tools. I build node stuff all the time on chromeos. I have a Framework Chromebook.
