Talking? How about yelling at their computers when the computers can't get things right.

Agreed, many systems running Linux are used in high reliability and safety critical applications. There is no place for crappy code in the kernel or important run time libraries, so we are definitely relying on people like Linus being tough on people who let problematic code into PRs.

Gotcha beat. Had a DEC Alpha AXPpci 33 running Linux in 1994. Installed from 30 or so floppies.

They could just use Yocto to handle building their distribution. Granted that customization of a Yocto distribution can sometimes be mildly painful, but once setup shouldn't be too hard to maintain.

I agree with this. Too many surveys fail to actually give you a way to answer how you really feel about something. Either they are too coarse or don't allow you to choose "irrelevant" or "not applicable". There is also a theshold beyond which I will abandon a survey, either for the time spent or when they insist on asking those supremely annoying "variation on a previous question" to try and tease out some distinction about how you really think/feel.

Jasmine Bond, James' (grand)daughter takes up where her (gramd)father left off.

I've backed 18 projects. Of those the results were:

• One failed to deliver anything
• A second one where I didn't request a reward ended up with the funds being misused
• A third delivered the hardware but only minimally functional software after the development team fell apart and the remaining developer did what he could to provide something
• The remaining 15 delivered on their promises, most of them on time.

At this point it will be entertaining to see the lengths he goes to to find that drive, then the expense to break the wallet password if he's forgotten it.

Being a heavy noble gas it wouldn't usually be flammable unless placed under extreme conditions with a strong oxidizer. Not sure about radon decay products.

Except for the fact that the DSLR cameras that this is used with never stated in the marketing literature or in the owner's manual that they could be used as a webcam. The utility just repurposed the remote shooting live view mode and made it available as a type of webcam.

Seems like the US government could respond with a ban on the sale of DJI products outright.

I agree for most types of clothing trying on before buying is still essential, given what a joke size markings have become. For hard goods I've typically done research on what I want online, and then often look to see if I can get it locally from a B&M store, but most often it isn't carried locally. It's infrequent that I'll be in a (other than a grocery, outdoor gear or hardware) store and see something new that I actually need.

While I greatly appreciate the benefits of modern IDEs for code comprehension and git integration, my fingers and brain prefer vi key bindings for actual text/code manipulation.

I have the same experiences. I keep telling them I'm not interested because I've already watched the video, but they don't take the hint I'm almost never interested in rewatching those videos.

I'd just like Siri to have improved voice recognition. It seems to have stopped recognizing "set a timer named back for ..." and won't created a timer with the name "back". It used to do that just fine.
