They just dumped them there in the 60s and 70s before there was regulation…
Edit:
Here’s two links, if you want to read up on it:
Thanks. 🙂
Not knowing what I’m looking at, this is a rather confusing post. I’m guessing these are not just off-color potato chips, since those do tend to be round…
Waterfox. It started out as a 64-bit build of Firefox for Windows, back when Mozilla didn’t offer that yet. These days, I believe, it just offers a few different defaults…
From the bug report:
[…] will require moving some config & data files from
~/.phoenixto probably$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/phoenixand […]
According to Wikipedia, the browser was already renamed to “Firefox” when that bug report was opened, but still wild to see that even back then, they already had some technical debt for the name of that directory.
Unfortunate that they did not go straight from ~/.phoenix to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mozilla, but hard to say, if that was as obvious of a choice back then…
Ah, yeah, I did get it after looking at the comments, but thanks. 🙂
Oh man, I thought that was supposed to be Einstein, but then figured the joke is that it’s his supposed son, Frank Einstein, which sounds a lot like “Frankenstein”. I guess, the joke is a lot simpler than that…
I just tried it on Android Firefox, and well, it does work, but you can definitely tell that it wasn’t built for Android Firefox.
It doesn’t show up in the URL bar and rather just in the extension menu. In there, it still gets hidden when no RSS feed is available. It copies to the clipboard as expected. And when there’s multiple feeds, it opens a separate page to show the dropdown in a very small font. Definitely usable enough, since you’re not going to interact with it all the time, but I wouldn’t give it the same glowing review…
Hmm, I didn’t do anything to make it work. Maybe try a hard refresh (Ctrl+F5).
If it is just Lemmy which doesn’t work for you, then here’s the URL for Top Twelve Hour sorting: https://lemmy.ml/feeds/all.xml?sort=TopTwelveHour
I’m currently prototyping a macro to help reduce boilerplate, as part of a more general library. And I’m doing some wild shit, like defining the fields of a data type from the parameter list of a function.
But then, yeah, what I’m now stuck on is that my generated code references a data type under one name, but it’s actually got a different name in the public API. All the wild shit was smooth sailing, but a technicality now fucks me over. 🫠
Sure, but as it happens with multiplayer games, you typically have a friend group that plays a certain game. Getting all of them to switch to another game can definitely be a problem.
Eh, it’s gonna depend on your taste in games. If competitive multiplayer games are your thing, then it is a problem. But sure, there’s lots of people who have zero interest in competitive multiplayer.
I enjoy the faces on the laptop. It’s like a very modern art piece showing the horrors of remote work.

Well, good news, it actually is fun to dick around in the Nix configuration and see those changes manifest on your system.
The purpose is similar, i.e. configuring a system, but I’d say Ansible works best, if you need to make a few small changes from an existing distro, whereas NixOS rather takes the approach of controlling everything about the operating system.
And in many ways, controlling everything is actually simpler.
As the other person said, the bit about Arch is just the preamble.
But you can use Nix Home-Manager on Arch (or other distros), if you’re so inclined, which will give you that reproducibility for the stuff in your home-directory.
In some ways, this is like backing up and restoring your dotfiles, but it allows you to template those dotfiles and depending on the program, it offers simple ways to populate the dotfile templates. For example, KDE applications don’t generally offer very legible dotfiles and so configuring e.g. a panel via dotfiles is kind of a pain. To help with this, there’s Nix Plasma-Manager.
Pretty sure that knowing COBOL isn’t the hard part. It has relatively few language concepts.
This lack of language concepts just makes it difficult to reason about it, so that’s what you’re getting a paycheck for. Well, and possibly also because it might take months to have a new dev figure out your legacy codebase, so it’s cheaper to keep the current dev by paying them competitive prices.
Oh man, a few years ago, we had a military dude as conductor in our wind band. And I was always one of his favorites, I’m guessing because I have broad shoulders and a deep voice – prime military recruit material.
…except that I’m vegan. So, one day he sits next to me during lunch and asks me why I’m vegan. I do the usual dance of avoiding the topic, but he does not want to let it go. So, I tell him that I think killing animals is wrong. He walked out of that conversation like a hurt gazelle.
Like, fuck me, dude, if you’re gonna do the whole military tough guy spiel, but cannot take a kid disagreeing with you, then maybe you’re not as tough after all.
That argument annoys me so much. Each vegetable does cover all amino acids, they just don’t have them in the exact relations that our body needs. But if a vegetable has only 50% of one amino acid compared to the distribution that our body needs, then you can abso-fucking-lutely just eat double of that vegetable. Or as you say mix-and-match.
A typical Western diet includes far more protein than the body needs for maintaining itself either way.
Bash fucks me up so much, too. You just put the parentheses there to say that something is a function, not for actually declaring the parameters that can be passed in…
