I don't get this comment. Gnome is not trying to make a walled garden, and Microsoft has taken every chance they get at making walled gardens (Windows phone, windows 8 arm, various proprietary file formats and protocols), they just haven't been very successful at it.
Yeah, they're mostly bits of hardware that turn ttl/serial into a USB device. Then you can use minicom or dterm to connect to the host. Mostly used for embedded development, but also useful for debugging servers that are not connecting to the network without having to lug a keyboard and screen.
After they're connected, if they speak vt110, your terminal emulator can display everything properly
Being alone with humans on a forest happens all the time. Hiking is a thing. And while I do grant you that rarely fucked up people do fucked up shit, most of the time absolutely nothing happens. At most there's some nodding.
I mean, I never do that without downloading the script and reading it. I also read makepkg files. It doesn't take that much to validate these things
The US customary units are officially defined on top of metric, and 1 fl oz is 29.5735295625 mL, but an oz is 28.349523125 g. I imagine this decision was just to fuck with people (since 1ml of water weighs 1g at sea level, at 4°)
The fsf also thinks it should be a different license apparently, given that gplv3 doesn't force you to distribute source to users of a server, but agpl does.
Although to be fair it.migjt have more fondo with the concept not being very well tested.
No, because they don't behave like lasers (like, they don't move at the speed of light). They're more like massive, short lived light sabers, which are plasma within a forcefield.
Not saying it makes sense (but shooting at moving targets that can change direction after you shoot, from a gun mounted on a platform with movement out of your control is not just math)
Apparently droids are not good enough to shoot guns. Most guns are fired by people, even the ones on star destroyers.
tz offset is really not enough. You'd need to save the time zone id and/or offset, to have you library calculate deviations such as daylight savings.
Even that, that would break if the user moves and now what they setup is using their previous timezone.
Basically, I'm saying that storing the offset works most of the time, but not all of the time.
It depends. If something needs to happen in local time (like, always at the same time regardless of daylights savings for example) you should be storing times in local timezone
HTML is not even a tree (XHTML is. XML is a type 2 grammar). SGML languages like HTML are more similar to Tree-adjoining grammars.
For example <b>This<i>is perfectly</b>valid</i> html.
But it did get a UI overhaul a few years back. Seems good enough
I mean Blade Runner did do it first, as well as Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep. (But Johny Mnemonic was at it before Blade Runner)
The sprawl trilogy does have a good enough and unique plot besides all of the groundbreaking cyberspace stuff
What? Using uuids is the solution to having to change the file (that, or stable name rules). You can also use labels if you want to.
Under this definition, using mspaint is programming
