Nice! When moon travels become common occurrence in the future, programmers will hate dealing with time even more. This list will probably need to be updated soon to add moon time madness (and perhaps time dilation madness): https://gist.github.com/timvisee/fcda9bbdff88d45cc9061606b4b923ca

This is exactly what I need. Thanks!

Does openwrt has dual wan support? I'm considering to try openwrt on my asus router, but I currently use its dual wan failover feature.

Back then rich people don't know what to do with their money, so they spent it on fancy scuppers. Now we have many other avenues to waste money instead, like the stock market.

Pretty interesting use case. This could turn traditional desktops into supporting some form of tiling window management I guess?

I thought the white house actually runs their own mastodon instance when I read the headline. That would mark the point where mastodon reached mainstream use which is an incredible milestone.

I was excited for nothing...

So what do microsoft's crack teams working at? typescript? xbox? vscode? Because those are the smoothest microsoft products I tried so far. The rests seem to get the bottom of the barrel these days.

To offer an app for download from a website in the European Union, developers need to meet specific criteria. Developers need to be a member of the Apple Developer Program for two continuous years or more and must have an app with more than one million first installs on iOS in the European Union in the prior year.

This seems specifically disqualify Epic as they aren't a member for two continuous years due to being booted by Apple. Apple must be really hates Epic.

lmao didn't know Elon Musk is an ffmpeg maintainer

How is bazzite on steam deck? Any issue with games that not present when using steam os?

Should be totally doable, when I'm retired and all I do is playing games all day. Can still open a web browser from steam overlay to check emails and stuff.

This is why you should secure your own bureaucracy-bypassing backdoor with a long ass key (bonus point if you use pki instead of a simple static key).

WCK said it had co-ordinated the convoy's movements with the IDF when it was hit.

WTF?! How could this happen? Is IDF that incompetent and must hit anything that moves?

Packaging applications is a hard work so they obviously want the devs to do it themselves. For example, canonical push hard so their users use snap for firefox because it's maintained by firefox devs themselves. Firefox updates very often and has complex build system, so I think canonical is tired of allocating significant resource to support it and want to stop maintaining firefox package if they can.

People are annoyed by canonical shoving snaps into their mouth at every opportunity (people want to choose when to use them by themselves), but there are many legitimate reasons for existence of snap and flatpak. Here are some of them:

• the app developers themselves are in full control of their app's distribution and updates instead of relying on distro maintainers. devs getting some angry mails for bugs already fixed but not yet included by distros is tale as old as time.
• simplified dependency management. what's stopping the dev from packaging their app using distro's native package management instead? whelp, they don't want to deal with this stuff. It can be a hard work, and there are dozens of distros out there to support.
• protecting users data. when you run an app installed from your distro's package manager, you know you can trust it because your distro maintainers have vetted the app to make sure it doesn't read your mail or your browser history or your ssh keys. when you download the app from a third party source, you can only pray to god that those apps won't mess with your data behind your back. You don't have to worry about that when you use sandboxed apps like flatpak.

Ubuntu, please stop! Her neck is going to snap!

CoffeeScript was a fad, but TypeScript seems to gaining more and more popularity these days, with new runtimes like deno supporting them natively. TypeScript finally gave Microsoft relevancy again in webdev world, so I bet they'll go a great length to make sure it stays that way. If Microsoft were still making their own browser engine, I bet they'll make it natively supports TypeScript too.

I got the feeling that the other commenter is right, that you’ll hate it, every day going forward:

Choose dishwasher over cabinet: every time you don't use the dishwasher's full capacity, you'll wonder why you didn't go with extra cabinet space instead

Chose extra cabinet space over dishwasher: every time your dirty dishes are too much for your dishwasher, you'll wonder why you didn't go with bigger dishwasher instead

Using apache is smoother for beginner though because nextcloud can configure some of the webserver configuration it needs by generating a .htaccess file by itself without user intervention. On nginx you might need to tweak the webserver configuration yourself every once in a while when you update nextcloud, which OP seems to hate to do.
