Remember when 1.21 gigawatts was a lot of power? Now we're talking about 6!
What's the difference? We also posted web articles and had lengthy, sometimes heated discussions about it. People were a lot nastier back in the days, angry RTFM nerds were abindant. On IRC people would crash your computer for fun. We had cybersex and warez and all the good things that are technically inappropriate for a 15 year old.
Now we have censorship all over the place. Nobody stopped you from posting porn on USENET, we had specific newsgroups just for that. Try posting porn on social media nowadays. Nobody cared what you had on your F-Serve on IRC.
I like being able to pull all my mail to my main machine, filter it into folders and have it, backups too.
I do all of that on my mail server. It's then accessible over IMAP, or I can fire up Roundcube in a browser. The filters are also managed through Roundcube. The VPS it runs on costs me maybe $12 per month, and that's not even the cheapest option out there.
Embrace the power of "and."
"Computer science went from a future-proof career to an industry in upheaval in a shockingly small amount of time."
This is basically 2001 prior to 9/11 again. Even the Slashdot comments could be substituted. I must be getting old.
Sucks to be graduating right now.
As per the wiki, the name was reused by unrelated companies long after the original LimeWire imploded.

Advocating that society should be engineered towards resilience is not a new thing, it's what keeps us safe from earthquakes, for example.
You have no guarantee that we can stop global warming. I happen to think we will not. Too many politics, laziness and complacency.
It is not an unreasonable demand, what we try to build better insulated houses, further away from the sea. Just in case.
People go see the Red Square on purpose. It's called tourism.
We should spend more time getting ready for the fact that, even though we created global warming, Earth has warmed and cooled of its own volition in the past and is not contractually obliged to hold a comfortable temperature range or a certain sea level. Species adapt or die. Stop building in floodplains maybe?
Now that we know the ice caps can melt and raise sea levels to a certain height, maybe we should go live in a high place.
What are you going to do if the sun suddenly warms up in an unexpected way, are you going to try cooling down the sun?
Shouldn't we at least have a plan B in case we can't immediately fix this?
Pardon my French.
What unit are you using? 1.6 grams per kilo for a largish 100 kg man is 160 grams which is less than a steak. Slightly over 1/3 lb for you americans.
What self hosted solutions have you been looking at?
I've used TTRSS ever since Google Reader went away, however long ago that was. Works like a champ, and there are one or two Android clients that talk to it.
In my country court proceedings are secret, as their disclosure can harm ongoing investigations, or simply violate someone's constitutional right to privacy.
Accusations are not convictions. And even if you were convicted of something that's no one else's business. You pay your debt to society, you have the right to a clean slate. Never hear of the Right to be Forgotten laws?
If the US does not protect its I'm sure that one day it will get finally get rid of the media circus bullshit and let people have their dignity.
You're the record holders for bible-thumping, how about "Judge not lest ye be judged" etc.
What happened? Necromancy? I haven't heard of it in like 20 years.
In order to dial out, it is necessary to broaden one's dimension.
