Very impressive work, WireGuard is a phenomenal piece of software, congrats on getting to 1.0 I can see Raymond Chen’s eye twitching at some of those (clever and necessary!) undocumented workarounds though :D Windows is just a different wor

People forget that macOS and even Windows (well, pre-11) excel at swapping. There are all sorts of hacks and tricks they do to make sure the system remains responsive when under severe memory pressure. This compared to Linux, where desktop

Other states that do this well don't start counting mail in ballots until after polls closed. They know if someone voted in person, so their mail in ballot is rejected before being opened and verified.

Unfortunately I don't have pictures from before this change, but you used to get 5-6 videos I believe. Now you get two (and maybe one is an ad). The point is that I made a joke projection in my last post in April that by next May there

1070 TI works perfect on Arch for the past ~6 months with latest drivers (better than Debian stable!). This card is old enough that only the closed source drivers are supported, but it seems to work fine.

In which the Gmail team lampoons the agentic AI future 16 years in advance. Clearly you’d never want a computer reading and responding to your emails unsupervised - right?

ArchiveTeam is trying to brute force the entire URL space before its too late. You can run a Virtualbox VM/docker image (ArchiveTeam Warrior) to help (unique IPs are needed). I've been running it for a couple months and found a mi

I’ve noticed that they have different, worse headlines in the digital edition and on the web. They seem more clickbaity. I just want to get on the record and say that whoever in the paper argues for and writes the fun headlines is on the ri

Microsoft has ruined their PC games with this. I hesitate to fire up Minecraft or Master Chief Collection these days because I just _know_ it is going to make me reauth for no apparent reason. I took 2FA off my Microsoft account because of

I read this and was left wondering - is this about technology, or civilization? I think the machine is just other people. And maybe the music has seemed off lately.

YouTube should just show ads, that's what makes money anyway right? Cable TV figured this out a long time ago.

Yup! That's the point, I'm mourning what was and shaking my fist at a cloud. They're probably right by their metrics, they can probably rigorously prove this makes them more money. But I think its subjectively worse, it feels

Good news everyone - I was able to follow the link in the letter, successfully fill their form, and confirm with the TVL that I do not need a TV license. We’ll see if they send mail or jackbooted inspectors across the pond to confirm.
