git-annex is something to consider too. It's kind of like git LFS in that it doesn't directly store files in the git repo (so the files can be enormous or change frequently without all the overhead of commits in git),…
Mine has learned exactly what corners to yell into such that their cry/meow echoes and reverberates everywhere so it can't be ignored. It's kind of impressive how smart and adaptable cats are, lol.
Hang a freaking painting or photo.
Is there some kind of bug or issue with HN comments? Maybe a bug in a client people are using? I've noticed over the last couple days what appear to be comments like this one above that are completely unrelated to the…
I was trying to play it on Android devices and can't mount it unfortunately.
I've also noticed playback of DVDs is terrible these days too. Long ago I ripped my DVD collection to iso files so I could preserve the full experience of the menus, etc. But almost nothing these days supports DVD iso…
There's mention of it in the DMCA if I remember correctly. It says DRM can be cracked if something isn't available to be sold anymore or something similar: https://www.wired.co.uk/article/dmca-game-preservation-exemp...
You definitely should, I know some folks that keep their huge TV on 24/7 because they like the pretty screensaver and photos it shows when idle. These same folks take a lot of other steps in their life to try to help…
Totally agree, so many things people get strong feelings about customizing workflows--note taking, todo lists, personal document management, inventory of goods, etc.--are really just a sqlite database with some nice…
I think of it more like MS Access but a sane backend of sqlite and python. There are thousands and thousands of critical business processes cludged together in Excel and Access--datasette could be a much better choice…
WTF is with your account? Are you trying to impersonate dang, the official moderator?
Yeah I wish more modern retro games would embrace the mostly flat shaded polygon aesthetic of mech 2 and similar games. There's a certain 80's future cool to early polygon graphics before it all became texture-mapped…
I didn't say anything either way. I think everyone can agree that losing a huge record of how it happened is a big loss.
Wow I wonder how much record of the arab spring protests and uprising are now lost forever. Those protests were all around 2010 to 2012 or so and was in my mind what really pushed Twitter into the public consciousness.…
Nope, I'm saying pharmaceutical companies don't need to be capitalist and profit driven.
I agree, and to solve this problem I say we nationalize and socialize healthcare to provide it to all citizens free of cost just as they do in many African and other countries. This will remove the need to have any…
Distributed RPC, i.e. dbus over the network, is an incredibly complex and still basically unsolved problem. To really do it right and guarantee correctness across systems (which may be in different states of working or…
Systemd doesn't remove any control, and in fact gives a lot of extra control over things like process dependencies, environment, etc. The big complaint people had/have really just boils down to someone moved the…
Unix domain sockets or FIFOs could be an alternative, but you'd have to do all kinds of complexity to support pub/sub style many to many communication over them (which is what dbus effectively does for you).
Yes systemd can use dbus, but plenty of non-systemd systems use and used dbus.
Dbus doesn't have anything to do with systemd FYI. It's a communication bus for processes to talk to each other through structured RPC messages.
Just run a web terminal like ttyd: https://tsl0922.github.io/ttyd
I dunno, looking at dell.com now all I see are bad CGI mockups of products and "AI" boldly slapped everywhere. It looks like trash and nothing like the Dell I used to use and own 20 years ago. I almost think the company…
Moka pots don't make espresso, they don't get up to the pressure required for espresso-level extraction. They're still quite good and I prefer them over drip brew for most coffees.
It can extract more flavor. The most fruity and sweet brews I've ever had were good espresso shots. The same beans in a pour over are still fantastic, but it's all amplified and more pronounced when made as an espresso…
