I wrote to the address in the GPLv2 license notice (2022) 1 year ago

I met a web developer working for the FSF at a Boston pub one night while in town for a Red Hat conference. After many drinks, he walked us down fifth street to the FSF office building. I wasn’t sure what to expect but when we got there, he typed in some numbers on the door entry system, and what came out was RMS singing the free software song lol. It was a wonderful treat for a young Linux nerd on a hazy adventure in the early morning

Near native speeds? I’m seeing an order of magnitude slower performance out of mine.

Doing anything special with your config? I already am setting placement options and played with replica options.

My only hope has been to wait for the V2 engine to become stable.

Linux 6.4 Features: Intel and AMD Additions, Better Desktop/Laptop Drivers 3 years ago

I see this complaint a lot but on the flip side, I’ve found Xorg high DPI support to be fantastic; better than windows. I recall only touching ~/.Xdefaults and setting Xft.dpi and had great results. I don’t use a desktop environment so that could be the kicker.

MacOS command line version of the WireGuard VPN is now available for testing 8 years ago

It does until it doesn't. Then you have to wait X seconds for a keepalive (one of the 100+ configurables) to notice you're not passing traffic, and your client to tear down the dead tunnel and reconnect. Meanwhile many other applications have also lost connection to endpoints and need to do the same type of reconnection.

Stateless is the best feature of WireGuard IMO. I'm really looking forward to the mobile clients stabilizing.

JS Paint – A web-based MS Paint remake 9 years ago

This is fun.

Try drawing programmatically:

  tools[7].paint(ctx, x, y);

then run:

  $canvas.trigger('change.session-hook');

to flush your canvas changes to the server.

Memo: Foxconn cost to Wisconsin nearing $4.5B 9 years ago

I hope it's better than giving $100,000 in credits to 30,000 small businesses in the greater Milwaukee area.

Show HN: Generate high-res images of code samples with Chrome Headless 9 years ago

I use vim for writing out html:

  :TOhtml

I found it to create the prettiest syntax highlighted code. But I'm bias because it produces html using my vim color scheme which I'm partial too :)

You can script vim too by specifying a list of commands in a file then running it:

  $ vim -S myscript some_file

Build your own Linux 9 years ago

It is a book.

You can build LFS on any system that meets the requirements[1].

Does it support SATA and UEFI boot disks yet?

The Linux kernel supports SATA disks since forever. UEFI is also supported by most bootloaders. The distro you build by following LFS will define support for things like UEFI.

I think you're confusing LFS with maybe a livecd image they used to put out?
