Well I think the first is kind of what orgdown is trying to do. https://karl-voit.at/2021/11/27/orgdown/ As for the second doesn't guile have a feature complete elisp implementation?

Whenever I use TurboCAD it has all the feature check boxes and they seem to function reasonably well. It just feels like they invested a ton of time, research and money into figuring out the worst possible way to expose those features in th

I have an XO-1 in my closet and the display was really the only thing I loved about that laptop. I wish I had the knowledge to create a display driver for it to hook it up to a raspberry pi that could make a fun little netbook. A display th

If you are trying to check what OS you are running wouldn't system-type be better? (eq system-type 'darwin) You could be running X on multiple different systems. Although I checked the output on netbsd and openbsd, both return ber

Well CNC technology has come a long way. The 5-axis machine we purchased was actually cheaper in absolute $ than the 20 year old 3-axis machine we were replacing it with. But yes vacuum clamping is still annoying. There are of course strate

That is also something people don't think about. Solid wood is great because it's easy to fix, but it's heavy and hard to move. Also it's less stable than a plywood and has to be taken care of. We had a customer with a

Except you have no way of knowing if that will be the case ahead of time. Unless the first thing you do after enabling 2FA is to social engineer a password reset for your account? Even then that doesn't guarantee that there isn't

If someone can exploit your SMS, it's possible they can use that to social engineer their way into a password resets with services. (I forgot may password but I still have my phone.) So I would say a bad second factor can be strictly w

Well a kindle is actually $110 when it's not ad supported and boox is selling a comparable device for $185. So very similarly priced. I would suspect the boox actually has more capable hardware because it needs to run android 10. I don

Laser fencing is the worst, pressure mats are approximately 1000x better. Our machine with the laser fence is always stopping for no reason because there was some dust. I just cut 50 sheets of MDF yea there is going to be some dust. In wood

To be fair installing synapse is fairly easy. Media uploads and e2e should "just work". When I recently changed the VPS I was running it on I set up synapse from scratch in about 15 minutes. Of course I have set up synapse many ti

I am using postgresql now. That is not a silver bullet for anything though. I switched to postgresql early on (when I first started using matrix I think synapse only supported sqlite?) and I've had less disk space & memory trouble

Well I was running it on a 2GB VPS, I have since November switched to a 4GB VPS, no issues since then but it's still early days. I haven't benchmarked either VPS, the 2GB I had a single dedicated CPU core, some 3.5+ghz xenon. I di

It's probably on the front page because of the Prosody post that is on the front page. Matrix is on the front page because it's really the only open protocol that has a chance of gaining non-technical users. I run a matrix server,

You may be talking about auto-tilers like xmonad. Those are the devil (joking, sorta). My favorite tiling window managers in order of preference would probably be exwm (emacs wm) -> stumpwm -> ratpoison -> i3. These are manual tili
