Arch package manager here, there is ongoing work behind the scenes to support multiple architectures (aarch64, riscv, etc), but as our volunteers (myself included) are doing this in our free time, progress is up in the air.

They've also been working on emulating the JP-8080, as per recent discord announcements. The JP-8080 uses custom DSP chips designed by Roland, and Roland do not provide a Virtual Instrument (VST) for this much desired synth.

Apple (and other streaming services) have been caught out replacing people’s local songs with censored/blessed versions. That is the main reason why some characters will not stream music; because they do not have full control over thei

Does anyone know how to access any of the repos listed in this vault? I’m after a particular one that was deleted earlier this year; has zero forks and does not show up in the way back machine.

I don’t know what I would do without sieve, I use it to manage my mailing list subscriptions, eg move to folders, mark emails from specific chatty users as read, etc. It automates a lot of manual cruft and I’m endlessly thankful for it. I

Do you have a PKGBUILD available? I'm currently running into this particular issue when installing the requisite chicken libs: building srfi-14 /usr/bin/chicken-csc -host -D compiling-extension -J -s -regenerate-impor

Hey! Thanks for writing this, this really helped me setup VyOS as my main router/firewall for my homelab. Do you have any plans to expand into IPv6 functionality?

I have a Z97 board from ASUS that exhibits this behavior. It’s a bit ridiculous because there is no Secure Boot option in BIOS other than disable/enable.

This kind of stuff really needs to be made explicitly clear in any/all API documentation as it inevitably leads to underlying issues later down the line. It's amazing how something as "simple" as official time/date

This is still occurring? I remember the original incident and just assumed that Google had sorted it out with Drew/Sourcehut. This is absolutely shocking behaviour, and I’m mortified at the precedent that it sets.

Sort of like how retro IBM Thinkpads have all sorts of modifications from new motherboards to screens? I can see something like that happening, I was on the verge of purchasing a Pebble when they announced their doom ^W acquisition via Fitb

Your post is extremely misleading and full of false information. I’ve been using a small VPS (sub $10/month) to self host mail for at least 10 years, and I’ve migrated hosts a few times without issue. I’ve even migrated to a “polluted”
