I went through similar feelings switching to the Mac ecosystem (from Linux) in 2012... But I quickly settled on some tools I wouldn't be without now. Finder is terrible, but I switched for Forklift early on. I think…
Well, you could say Melinda got a big promotion for a while.
> But pretending like only people on the far-right and people like DHH are willing to say this is just wrong. This is also the stated outcome of official inquiries of the UK government. As a German you may not be aware…
I was going to make the same point. In no way do I endorse Rupert Lowe or the Restore party. But referring to that blog post as “hideously racist” is exactly why new victims will be made today, and new victims will be…
I think you are correct. It trivialises true evil with silly superficial comparisons. Popular with those who love to shout the word "Fascist" but have no idea what it historically meant.
I clean my Apple mobile stuff daily with 70% Isopropyl Alcohol. A 1L bottle is pretty cheap and it lasts a long time. I just spray it on a cloth and wipe with that. I use a glassware/window type Microfiber that I got…
…the difference being that someone like Cummings at the time didn’t have the heft of the Establishment behind him. Anyone can “call” for anything, doesn’t mean it’s going to happen. The examples I gave were of real…
There were plenty of calls for a confirmatory vote (aka "Peoples' Vote", as if people didn't vote the first time) after the Brexit result in 2016. If Remain had won 52% to 48%, you can bet that no second confirmatory…
Isn’t it odd that there are only suggestions for followup confirmatory votes when the pro-EU camp don’t get their way, never the other way around.
You’re welcome… There are things I will probably miss from Cursor, as they used to iterate on DX goodies quite quickly. For frontend tasks, I liked the idea of Cursor Browser being able to do a devtools-like selection…
I recently cancelled Cursor. The features you mention are in Antigravity IDE v1, which I am trying as I still have a Gemini subscription. No idea how long it will be around for, as Google Antigravity2 (more like Claude…
Sure thing. I really meant that my Oracle Cloud account is protected by my YubiKey, and when I provision an instance I set a strong, pre-hashed password for the local account in the CloudInit configuration. If I ever…
By MFA I meant the Yubikey plugged in to my home office Mac; I don’t do sysadmin on the bus. But I take your point… I try to make sure I print out recovery codes when offered, and keep them hidden in a safe place at…
I meant in real practical terms, not higher concepts. I am fine with not having a private island or a network of influential friends, but I am really really glad I’m not defecating in the street.
I agree with you. I’m reading this thread and wondering if I’m missing something, why people are still talking about port knocking, port obfuscation, and fail2ban. I use a cloud VPS. I ssh in via Tailscale. The cloud…
Quantitatively, yes. Qualitatively, no.
The only thing I value from that list is the played/unplayed status, and resuming a title from where I left off. My two preferred clients handle that for me on my various devices.
I am definitely in the former category. I’m not dedicating the time to replicate a Netflix client equivalent with all the metadata (although I do make the time for FLAC albums). There’s nothing as straightforward as…
A few years ago I decided to give up on sdcards for my main 24/7 homelab server. I now use a small SSD connected via USB3 and a slightly modified version of this :…
The history is longer and more tangled than that. 1951 - Nationalised by Attlee (Labour) 1953 - Re-privatised by Churchill (Conservative) 1967 - Nationalised again by Wilson (Labour) 1988 - Privatised again by Thatcher…
It’s fun and games, but you have to bear in mind that joke candidates never expect to win. It’s entirely possible that every anti-Farage voter could coalesce behind him. Upon winning, he would have his name and face be…
Do you really have to make the exact same comment in every related thread? It’s just tedious at this point.
If you would cast your mind back ten years, I distinctly remember this bitter and callous attitude at the time. Wanting people who disagree with you to "just die out" is profoundly antidemocratic.
Lovely comment thread. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the “democrats”…
