firmware is specific to chipset and are binary blobs supplied by the manufacturer. ath9k-supported and generally realtek cards don't need firmware; theo de raadt noticed the culture difference between american vendors like intel and br

HEADLINE: easier, simpler package creation and building DESCRIPTION: on distros like arch, to a lesser extent void and even gentoo, writing package definition files (PKGBUILDs, ebuilds, templates) is relatively straightforward; in contrast,

firmware support involves supplying the binary blobs that the driver needs to upload to certain peripherals like intel wireless cards. personally i would like to see non-free software kept out of the main disc images but the images includin

Slightly disconcerted that the first thing webdevs are rushing to do with wasm is to port massive language runtimes to it, continuing the web tradition of piling shit upon shit upon shit. Personally believe that this is totally the wrong id

You can sell GPL software under all the terms of the GPL, but the users can redistribute it under freedom 0, 2 and 3. You can mitigate this by being a single source of development and offering support.

What's the difference? Capitalism is always going to end up with consolidation, monopolisation and anti-user practices.

Yes, it is to do with "capitalism" and the product of a society geared towards making money instead of making cool stuff. It isn't immutable, there are better ways of doing things, but then again that's beyond the scope

Capitalism is why we can't have nice things in the first place. Capitalism precludes news media from reporting fairly and accurately rather than pander to their advertisers. Another example: want cheap fast internet? Too expensive to r

Don't get where people get the idea that Wales are agitating for leaving the Union. Wales is more legally entrenched than any other of the constituent countries of the UK and also majority voted to leave the EU.

At least in Rust's case, RAII/lifetimes provide mostly the same development experience without GC overhead.

I've found you definitely need swap if you don't have 8GB of memory. I personally have nowhere near the amount of patience required to wait for the OOM killer.

I just wondered seeing as it had been flagged dead within an hour I believe. I believe however that this is one of the fundamental flaws of Reddit-style websites. On an imageboard you are obliged to make your disagreement in words, construc

Would have like to have seen Firefox's particular handling of this, but it seems like the author's definition of "browsers" (plural) == Chromium.

Pretty sure PuTTY is a one man job and the page is just a personal one hosted on chiark.greenend.org.uk, which seems to be just a server run by his mate

Something ruffled your feathers. Why do you want Firefox to be abandoned rather than improve it's security? For my and most other's mundane browsing needs Firefox _is_ secure enough. Mozilla is the only browser vendor actually inn

>thanks in large part to code from Chromium This is false and misleading. The only bits Firefox plans to nick from Chromium are things like the C++ PDF reader which is a regression compared to pdf.js running in a nominally memory-safe ru

Don't like this pejorative use of the word populism. Populism is getting people to vote for you for what they want, telling them they need to do what you want is the polar opposite of what needs to be done to fight the far right.

Many I know who have recently started using these free VPNs only do so to skirt content filtering on free wireless networks. They do not have any expectation of security or privacy and are not conscious of the possibility of their traffic b

Libreboot also disables Intel ME and other such unwanted gubbins, which Coreboot doesn't do (or doesn't expose a means to configure it to do so).

"uplift" in this context seemed to mean to me that they were not upstreaming the patches verbatim but neutering them for Firefox.

Over the last year of intermittently dossing around with Rust I encountered the need to use nightly regularly, with various crates refusing to compile (and usually I stopped my experimentation there as my barrier to entry was anything harde
