That is awesome. I've been using vim for years and never knew it had a command for this. I guess I should do more spelunking through the docs. Thanks!

No, it's not clear, and I guess that's up to the courts to decide. But in my (non-lawyer) opinion - if the reproduced code is substantial/unique enough to be deemed to be covered by the license, then it's also substantia

There's a bit of disagreement in this subthread over what "Open Source" means. I think the issue here is that there multiple ways that people define "open source": 1) The source is viewable (regardless of license) 2

While I agree with the other comments about the implications of your "quackery" phrasing, I want to chime in and say that overall, I really appreciate that you wrote that page. I think it's unusual to see a company basically

You're not alone. I understand why this change is needed - jerks often ruin things. But I hope that DO will refine the approach a bit, as opt-in-only will probably kill Hacktoberfest for me. The intersection of projects that I use or

Not the author, but I recently started down the FPGA rabbit hole myself. I started with HDLBits [0], which has a bunch of problems that you solve by writing verilog that is then run in a simulator. It starts with simple gates and such, and

I'm not the person you're replying to, but I'll offer my 2 cents. Frankly, there is a TON of info present, and as someone who hasn't yet attended an on-site DEFCon (though I hope to someday), it's a bit overwhelming

I had external display issues as well, with a T440 and an UltraDock under Debian. It was mostly flickering and blinking of the outputs, but occasionally a display wouldn't come out of powersave mode. You may have already found and tri

That's a great idea! I would read the heck out of that.

I know this is a late reply,but maybe you'll see it. Regarding the synced/shared/global file ignore, there's an imperfect but usable work-around: You can use #include statements in your .stignore, so you can include anot

Yes, mine is very similar. Though, (and I should have mentioned this in my original comment, sorry) I've never actually used the functionality in question, so I don't know how well it actually works.

The cordless phone system I have lets you make/receive calls via your cell phone from any handset in the house. It connects via Bluetooth, so isn't a dock, but the functionality is similar to what you're suggesting. Mine is

I haven't tried the chickpea pasta so I can't comment there, but my wife and I found some edamame (soy) based pasta at Costco that's not bad. It's 7 net carbs for a 2 oz serving and so far I think it's the closest t

In general, an attacker wouldn't be getting my password from my password manager, they'd be getting it through phishing, or brute force, or some other way. If they acquire my password in any way other than a total compromise of m

I keep mine in my password manager, which is sync'd across all of my devices. That way, if I lose access to my 2FA device, I can still get into my accounts, even if I'm traveling.

My understanding is that the preferred way to launch PulseAudio is to launch it as part of your X session so it runs as your user. MPD supports launching in the same way. So done this way, everything runs as your user and therefore plays

I didn't replace the battery, but back when I used mine regularly I bought an external battery specifically made for it. The company that made it still has its website up, but there doesn't appear to be a way to order. So they ma

Wow, I have that too! Now I know what it's called. For what it's worth, I have a pair of vibrams and they're very comfortable, even for weirdos like us. I imagine it's just a matter of sizing.
