I like both quite a bit, and even got into the hobby culture for each.

Tea is simpler in preparation, but way more complex in terms of varieties. There is a huge difference between a chinese black tea and an assam black tea, even though its the same core ingredient, prepared in a similar fashion.

Coffee on the other hand has fewer varieties, but way more variables in preparation that can drastically change the flavor of your cup. The size of your grind, the brew temperature and the extraction time all have pretty major effects on thr end product.

Both Tales of Symphonia and Chrono Cross got abysmal PC ports.

Playing the originals in an emulator is definitely a much better experience

With removable batteries is that there is actually a legitimate reason for getting rid of them, in that it’s much harder to waterproof a device with a removable battery.

I’d still like to see the option available, but I can at least understand why it’s not from a practical standpoint. The only reason carrier locks exist is to increase the cost of change for the end user, making them less likely to switch providers.

This is explicitly against their TOS. Whether or not you’ll be found out is a whole other matter

To be fair, comparing terminal to the registry is not comparing apples to apples. The registry is more like a complicated config file full of barely documented options. Still miserable to work in, but that’s beside the point.

The terminal equivalent to windows is Powershell which id say is much more favorable.

Honestly, with the unfathomable amount of money he was set the make from that deal, I dont blame him for doing it.

It’s a good message too, if you ignore who said it and why.

How?

I dual boot and use the command line a similar amount in both. cmd and powershell in windows are super useful for troubleshooting things that don’t work, or setting configuration options that are just not possible from the GUI, like disabling the hiberfil

Windows error messages are usually something to pay attention to if they generate a popup. But you can ignore most errors and warnings in the event viewer.

Linux is the same. If you get a popup, look into that, but if you see warnings or errors in a logfile then they can most likely be ignored if the app is working

It’s good opsec to have a VPN when torrenting but thats largely due to the risk of being identified commiting a crime.(Or at the very least, having your ISP send you an angry letter about copyright infringement)

If thats not part of your threat model, then you dont need to worry.

The first game is pretty rough around the edges but pretty fun.

The sequel is a masterpiece.

Use it to program an functional DOS emulator for MacOS 8?

The Internet Archive is right up there with Wikipedia in terms of public good they have done.

It’s a travesty thet they even need to fight this.

“Choose LVM and encrypt that volume, you little slut”

So far, the only thing AI has shown to be pretty good at is summerizing a large amount of data, and even then it cant be fully trusted to not make mistakes.

Maybe not a super beginner question, but what do awk and sed do and how do I use them?

Apps get a one strike rule. The minute I get a notification I don’t want, that app doesn’t get to send me notifications anymore

Good. Ad blocking is security and anyone that tells you different both doesn’t care about your computer security, and also wants to sell you something.

That 2/3 to 3/4 of computer programmers, computer security experts and advertisers seems low. I feel like that should be closer to 90%

This is the way I would handle this.

I’ll switch to Wayland once it becomes the default in the distro I happen to be using that month. Not before.

Eventually you’ll reach the point where instead of checking Netflix for X and settling for Y locally, you’ll just download X and watch it.
