Apple locks old devices out of updates, although it takes about 10 years to do so. And after that, you can still do a workaround. Only problems is going to be when the last intel mac isn't going to be supported anymore, then the old devices will definitely be locked out.
I would agree a few years ago, but saying that it's generally not usable for users is (in my opinion) wrong. If you're only going to use a browser, and watch some videos, Linux is fine. If you're a gamer and only use Steam, Linux is fine. Linux was also fine for me when installing Lutris to run other Windows games like Trackmania. For both those cases, I didn't even have to touch the command line. If you're a programmer, Linux is probably fine, because you have more knowledge on how command lines work anyways.
If you have any kind of advanced use case that doesn't have a well established solution, and you have to research (sometimes a little, sometimes a lot), that's probably not fine for a normal user. But more and more tools do have established solutions that work out of the box, so I'd say it's getting more fine.
Whether Windows, Mac or Linux is better is a question of use case and other factors in my opinion. You only used Windows your whole life and don't want to get used to a new thing? Then don't. You love the Apple ecosystem and want to pay the premium? Do so. But I feel like outright saying Linux isn't for regular use has become false in the recent years, as there are quite a few use cases by now that can use Linux without problems.
You can search on e.g. Lutris if the game is supported. It's usually just a one button install
What’s the point of open sourcing this product?
Some people just like to have the possibility to change and completely own their stuff. Some people actually do change firmware or hardware components. I'd say it's mostly for tech enthusiasts and tinkerers.
Ooh, I'm sorry Mr AlienHuman, it seems I did a whoosh. I think your friend also sent me the picture, might wanna check with them.
Too be fair, your face is very memeable.
Thanks, that helped a little. The frontend and the proxy show no errors, the backend shows a parsing exception and a timeout exception. However, I got invidious to run without problems in the meantime, so I'm staying with that
Hi, I just installed a piped instance on my server, however whenever I want to play a video it just shows 'error 1001, look at the logs'. I installed via docker, I could not find a way documented to access said logs. Does anyone know how to access the logs?
I think they’re perfectly safe, but I don’t think we have a good way of storing the waste. Just leave some highly reactive stuff underground for a few hundred to thousand years? That sounds like a recipe for disaster at some point, that is a freakin long time
I don’t agree. While I don’t like ads, I think contextual ads are okay. As long as they’re non intrusive
If your function is longer than 10 statements, parts can almost always be extracted into smaller parts. If named correctly, this improves readability significantly
I created some plots from the data I collected for my research on correlating CVEs to Clean Code requirements.
Disclaimer: My n=19 is really low. The data is very probably not significant. It's part of a seminar, it just doesn't have the scope for a bigger data collection. I hope to do that for my masters thesis.
The first plot isn't really that surprising and just "confirms" the intuition, that more contributors catch more bugs.
The second is quite interesting. I may have a bias in there and just picked a lot of inactive projects for the projects without requirements (although projects like npm are in there), but it's still quite surprising for me that there is that big of a difference.
I never claimed that it's original content :) I included the quote numbers for all the IRC posts I did, so people can look it up on bash.org . I also slightly edited the posts - adding some color coding and removing clutter info (if applicable) so it's easier to read. I would've posted as text if that formatting was available.
Btw lithp-lang.org is still up for grabs
Don't be salty because we've got a working democracy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ sure, it isn't perfect, but it's not all about the money here. Being a politician on that level already pays quite nicely without being bought by a company or two. And voters have a lot of power over who gets into the EU parliament, so a lot of them really do represent the common folks.
