  • or you can just read an actually interesting article

  • Hmm sorry for calling you a Rube. You make a fair point.

  • hey accumulating stuff that you still find use for is better than throwing them away. And you said you give away stuff to other people for their use.. which probably saves even more devices from a landfill.

  • GUIs

    Jump
  • two verbose flags makes it extra verbose

    tcpdump intensifies

    But what tool did you have in mind?

  • yeah swinging swords makes that cheap metallic noise. Quests don't have the pull that we expect them to. None of the characters are interesting. No continuity with quests. I notice the bugs that Tod Howard never fixed but re-released with bigger textures, which only makes the greed more palpable.

  • You're a rube if you think corporations can't throw some money at interns do a rewrite in MIT and bypass GPL that way.

  • I would use the internet like I did back in 2005 I guess. Seriously... the necessity of these tech companies is a mixture of them sniffing their own farts too much, propaganda from them to ensure they are perceived as essential, and finally people being too lazy to find alternatives.

  • The conjecture that: when tech bros talk about "disrupting the market" it's actually a dogwhistle for fraud and subverting regulations with illegal tactics quick enough to grow very big and influence governments to alter the policies in their favor; gets one more example to make it into a theorem.

  • The backend is not virtualbox stuff but KVM stuff. Only the frontend is virtualbox. so one can claim that it's more apt to say this is "virtualbox-ui"

  • Worst advice ever. Your blood pressure will rise and you will wish you were a farmer.

  • Don't hold your breath. Helps avoid disappointment.

  • It looks like the circle that is forming over the AI industry is going to soon turn into a spiral that collapses into the center i.e. NVIDIA.

  • You're ignoring 20+ years of how it was the only player when web wasn't so big as it is today. It was a major reason windows became the default OS in many offices, and as an extension of that, in the majority of homes in the 2000s to 2015. Thus majority of software industry and video gaming companies made their home in windows. Adobe Photoshop, AutoCAD, and many other industry software was made to work in Windows first.

    There was also the case of Microsoft tilting the playing field by significantly discounting laptop and Desktop OEMs for Windows license keys just to be the sole OS installed on many computers. The concept of a PC was one which was running some version of Windows.

    This also lead to another compounding aspect: Piracy of windows software made the windows AD/Server experts of today. Since Linux was free, there wasn't as much of an intrigue on running it vs. A pirated copy of windows running pirated copy of many software.

  • but that's just a choice whereas in C you have no choice but write flawless code.

  • lower the price for consumers

    😂

  • As opposed to... checks notes ... the rest of the world?

  • Yeah, that way they also get a 3 hour nap

  • Oops yeah you're right. Sorry OP. There's nothing better than using a database that flushes to disk often enough that missing a small chunk of data due to interruptions should be fine. Probably some kind of memory mapped IO on top of eager writing filesystem should do a good enough job.

  • I thought someone here had mentioned that the environment and user executing the script at startup and you running the script might have differences. The reason it would have worked with systemd might be that the environment was loaded correctly?
