Oh, you expect the error message when you restart? Oh, sweet summer child. You won't get that error message until someone connects to the unix socket and the daemon lazily gets started, and crashes because you had a typo in your config file. You didn't know that, because you were under the understanding that the "restart" succeeded, since it said it did and returned EXIT_SUCCESS.
If a large enough percentage of users of a site are from a given country then isn’t it natural that those users will unconsciously make a corresponding assumption in their posts. This is especially so since for most Americans talk about neighboring countries is low.
It's not intended for use case in production. It's a Windows Core OS SKU. (like Windows Holographic or Windows 10X)

I’m frequently suspicious of the veracity of ratings online.
I disagree with your characterization of this being non-independence of thought.

You don’t know what you don’t know. It’s not on your list because you didn’t want it when you went to the store. You saw it, and now you know about it, and now you want it, so you buy it.

I never understand people who try to make this seem nefarious. You walk past 10,000 things you didn’t think about and don’t want so you just walk past it without picking it up. There obviously some small exceptions, like filling the checkout lane with candy because they know kids are going to harass the parents, but in general it’s about the first strategy. Show people things they want that they didn’t know they wanted when they walked in so they will spend more money in your store.

Really? I've never seen my ISP listed on that site or seen in any obvious way that my ISP is hosting the test. Maybe it's there but if it is, it's either hidden, or done in a way such that it's non obvious your getting "fake" speeds compared to the rest of the internet. There's no disclaimer that because it runs on their servers you'll get higher than normal speeds in the test. And in my experience where I live the average consumer has no idea those tests are bullshit.

If it's actually a test of internet speed, why are they choosing to run it in a way that does not reflect the true speed you will see when using the internet. I remember reading a reddit post where a person said he noticed that the speed tests were ridiculously faster and thus decided to proxy all his internet through that address. Anecdata but it was stated it _vastly_ increased his internet speeds until the ISP caught on and stopped it somehow. The question was how they might continue to get around it.

It's obvious the ISP are not providing even a fraction of the advertised speeds to an advanced user but average people tend to really believe they will see those speedtest speeds throughout the rest of the internet.
The biggest forthcoming revolution in housing will be self driving EV RVs.

Your house takes you to your job, then takes you somewhere else on weekends or evenings. Ultracheap solar, which is still in it's main phase of cost improvement, same with batteries and drivetrain, will make EV RVs cheaper from TCO. And the guts of the RV will be efficiently centrally manufactured.

> Most people do set up at least a dynamic DNS of some sort.

Most dynamic DNS providers got a default shared domain name added to the Public Suffice List e.g. dyndns.example might be on the PSL and then you can have your server be named etskinner.dyndns.example when you call their dynamic DNS service.

In this case Let's Encrypt is quite happy to give you a certificate for etskinner.dyndns.example since you control it. Unlike a web server, the Mumble server can't trivially bake the elements needed for this into its functionality, but it shouldn't have a hard time in the two easy cases:

1. There is no web server for this DNS name, spin up a temporary web server, answer Let's Encrypt queries until they give you a certificate, then spin it back down

2. This machine is the web server, so, have the user tell us how to pass http-01 challenges on that existing web server.

That doesn't cover every corner case, and it is one more notch on your "Duplicate certificate count" rate limit if you do have an HTTPS web site on the same name from Let's Encrypt, but I'd guess 95% of users who have a working Murmur and either a Dynamic DNS setup or their own "proper" DNS setup would get a working system and a further fraction would have some trivial problem they'd fix and after that it would Just Work™.

Like any retailer, buyer beware!

Some things at dollar stores are great deals, many things are not. You just need to know your prices.

“Dollar General” and “Family Dollar” stores tend to target poorer buyers who make poor pricing decisions from many points of view for a variety of reasons, ranging from poor access to transportation to poor financial literacy.
In the UK the wholesale access part applies even to FTTC/P, so you can get fibre all the way to your door operated by Openreach and connected to BT Wholesale but with packets being passed to your choice of ISP for internet access.

There are some additional requirements - I think in the early days you had to take a modem from BT and there’s a minimum commitment (used to be 18 months).

I used to have the same opinion of dollar tree and co, until I met my wife, who shops there frequently.

Like any other store, there are certain things that you should get elsewhere. However, I was genuinely impressed that the quality of many things was quite a bit higher than what the stereotype had led me to believe.

Edit: perhaps it is worth pointing out that she also shops Wal-Mart and aldis, and buys only from each of the three stores what the better deals are.
It appears that they're in the 'build' folder for the platform in question, e.g.:

But what about output?
Ofc it will run on it.

The specs are especially for CPUs are for manufacturer and never list discontinued CPUs.
If you look at the same specs for win 10 you would assume it needs modem hardware but it does not it runs on 10 year old laptop.

I tested the leaked version on single core CPU with 1GB ram and it just works. (probably not enough ram to install updates but it boots)
This is interesting. Well written/compiled. All sorts of things to be interested in.

One noteworthy point is how much frames matter. Adjusting quantity (eg small old spice bottle) instead of price makes a big difference in how things play out. It makes everything different.

Another point is returns to scale. Economies of scale are long known and highly observed. Things like "buying power," oligopsony and such were documented as Wal Mart came up. I think there's more to be said on this. Winner take most is a transformative curve. Where's it heading? Is it even bad that markets are structured this way?

I suspect this oligopoly's biggest long term competitor is AliExpress. As the author notes, the key element is being a good, opportunistic buyer of cheap goods. A lot of things come down to mail/delivery systems. I think we're at a point where actual delivery infrastructure will start to be built. How it's built matters.

It's not so easy no, but it's not so hard either. You need to use a SOCKS5 proxy with localhost:9050 (where tor usually runs). Then you need to connect using TCP not UDP.

I believe it's as straightforward as that, but to be honest i haven't fired up a network log to check that Mumble wasn't sending IP addresses or other "private" information over there.
> Sweden has one of the largest wealth inequalities in the world.

Sweden has a low income inequality.

Around 20% of the population are immigrants that have yet to accumulate wealth, myself included. If you own an apartment in Stockholm you are already many times richer than any newly arrived. And, at the current prices, it is going to take them 50 years to pay for such an apartment.

So, the system needs time to let everybody accumulate wealth. That is to be expected.

That does not mean that the situation is perfect. In Sweden, like in the rest of the Western world, big corporation does not pay taxes in the country but in tax havens. So, much more can be done to increase the change of everybody getting a good life.

tldr; Sweden is a rich country, newly arrived people from poor countries have no wealth and it is going to take them decades to catch up even if they get a fair salary.
>Try it before you knock it.

This is the kind of stupid elitism people have here. As if I haven't hosted Ventrilo, TeamSpeak, and Mumble servers for years. Maybe these days there isn't competition (although you mentioned TeamSpeak), but even back in the day it was a tiny miracle if two different groups actually shared a platform even inside the same game different groups/clans/guilds usually had different setups and I had to juggle multiple clients just to participate compared to now when everyone is simply on Discord.

Unless you need some niche feature (like the OP's positional audio) there simply is no reason to go for out dated client/server model.

I haven't used Discord previously so i wouldn't know, but i read they use WebRTC. If so, then it wouldn't work with Tor Browser at all, which is built without WebRTC support for privacy reason.

Please let me know if that's not the case.

Cost. Have a look at the numbers and then it should make sense. Don’t get caught up in silly internet debates about safety and politics. It might soon be cheaper to install new wind and solar than to operate some existing nuclear plants.

Personally, I think covid is similar to the assassination of Arch Duke Ferdinand: the event precipitated something that was basically going to happen anyway. Covid has become an excuse, political tool, and ideological rallying point for sentiments that have been building for a long time. The powder keg was there, it just needed a match.

Thus the "something extremely weird" - it's been much different than just an epidemic occurring in a vacuum.

I think that the possibility of abuse (which has happened), possibility of government requesting that data (also happened, plus people here tends to be not inclined to give their data to any government), and possibility of leakage (general leakage not happened with Microsoft, but there's state-level hacks) means that even telemetry is tainted with privacy issues.
Malware certainly exists on the Play store, but when Google spot it, they can unilaterally remove it. IIRC, they also have the ability to remove it from devices where it was already installed. The app store model probably also delivers security updates to legitimate apps more effectively than every developer managing their own distribution.

My parents are also very cautious with what they install on Windows, and I think that's a pretty good approach. But it's pretty clear that plenty of people aren't so paranoid, and it's not always easy to tell a dodgy site from a legitimate one.
Why put the inaccurate time in the recipe, though? Just as a test to make sure you read the whole book?

This post for info purposes only having worked with the Amazon app store team and does not reflect my opinions at all, I haven't spent time thinking about if it's good or bad:

The resigning stuff is because they alter the apps to fix dependence on Google play apis and gsuite apis. Developers were not interested in rebuilding their apps for fire and other devices without those apis baked in and this was a good solution to ease uptake for fire/Amazon app store.

Also note that ms will control this android os, so they already control the signature verification method. They could do this without you knowing very easily by just with something like carrying a second sig and hash of what they modified and the original partial sums from the original app. Google and amazon or any os supplier can.

Signature verification is only as strong as the verifier code.

Glad to burn karma to put data out there.

Is it just me, or is every mainstream language converging to the same uber-language? First Java and C++ get lambdas (originally from LISP), and now C potentially will get them as well. Let's focus on making sure C does C-stuff as well as possible.
This seems to be a solved problem, if we want it to be. We can easily enough teach our programming editors either that typing < followed by = should convert to ≤ automatically unless you press some sort of literal key first (say Esc), or that typing some sort of compose key (say Alt Gr) followed by < and then = should convert to ≤.
I'm not sure ownership applies to today's software. When you buy it and get security updates for some time - sure, but when you get new features in mandatory updates it washes out what the actual product is. Maybe you don't want new features? Best you can do with Windows 10 is postpone updates for 35 days.
This sounds like you're limiting the idea of a "community" to something akin to niche FOSS projects, not generalized interests like Discord is more commonly used for. IRC is way less intuitive for building such things, especially for the vast majority of users - who don't even know what IRC is.
Maybe time for neutral WHO naming conventions to apply. Champagne is officially F.5.231 or something inane that confers little marketing benefit.

Fine, you have told us about something we already knew about. How do you propose to detect the gravitational field of a superposed electron? Or even a proton, 1836 times more massive? Or even a U nucleus, 4.4M times more massive?

The number of positions for post-docs in physics departments is capped by department budgets. Each seat given to a pure mathematician masquerading as a physicist is a seat not available to one who would rather do, you know, physics.

If, someday, it became possible to make progress on the topic, actual physicists would jump at the chance. Without possibility of an experiment, it is just maths. Maths departments welcome that, but don't get physics department budgets. For reasons.

I want a DDS implementation on microcontrollers. I really want them to be able to speak ROS2. That would be the ultimate awesomeness, since it needs no broker/server/master, devices on a network can just discover and talk to each other in a decentralized fashion.

> You don't have to depend on it either - you can still use chroot instead of you want, but it's more work that way.

How so? If I need filesystem isolation, I'll use the simplest tool that provides it. In this case probably a container runtime. Note that none of your criticism about Docker applies to Podman.

Why would I ever want to use containers with a tool that forces (OK, strongly suggests...) me to use it as an init system, logging system, network manager, DNS resolver, and whatever other aspect of my Linux system its authors think it should manage?

I apologize for retreading the same discussion on this topic, but like others mentioned, adopting an incredibly complex tool doesn't mean you're simplifying. You're just working at a higher level of abstraction, which can be comforting, but simplifying would be to use the underlying systems directly or using a tool that only focuses on a single aspect of what you need (i.e. containerization).

> You don't need them. Everything from the post is defined in simple environment variables. For example socket activation is maybe 3 extra lines when done from scratch.

Great, then the article shouldn't import systemd bindings... My point is that the program is now tied to systemd systems. Containers don't impose such restrictions.
"where tor usually runs"

So you have to set up tor too.

The average person's not going to know (or even want to know) how to do that.

It needs to be made as simple as a "connect over tor" button, and everything should be done for you, including setting up tor... anything requiring more interaction or knowledge is going to lose a lot of users.
Games consistently get fewer FPS on my setup. 3750H GTX1650. Part of it is nvidia drivers being poopoo, most of it being CPU cycles overhead.

> This is a problem nobody in the open source community seems to care about

It's not so much we don't care about it. It's more like there's nothing we can do about it. We've been campaigning against giving away our rights as computer users to private corporations for decades, but when users actually do it it's beyond our powers to intervene.

If you know low-level hackers who would be happy to setup a community project to reverse-engineer the iPhone bootloader and setup a free system on there, a lot of people would be happy. A person on Reddit booting their iPhone to ubuntu had a lot of attention, but to my knowledge there's no serious collective project with such goals, because it's complicated takes resources and places people from certain countries in a delicate legal situation (with regards to RE/hacking laws).

So if you know people working at Apple or who have deep knowledge of iPhones, please tell them to get involved, leak low-level firmware code and documentation and/or participate in such developments. But the burden can't be placed on "open source community" for a sad situation they haven't created.
Agreed there is a definition somewhere, but if im trying to build a table, or pretty much anything. Kindly dont hand me single atoms, and tell me you're making my job simpler ;)

This is a probably very broken definition, but maybe: simplicity is the most direct route to our goal, from where we're standing

Maybe?
Sony Draws Ire with PSP Graffiti (2005)
For the past, literally 15 years, I've balked at a workgroup switch that cost more than $50.

(Granted, since last year I've been a convert to Ubiquiti gear, but that wasn't a valid option when I was a teenager living with my parents, trying to convince my dad on good tech to buy within a reasonable budget)
This is an interesting question. From personal experience, I have also found simple GUI work to the "digging ditches" work of programmers. (Weirdly, I still love it, because it makes it easy for end-users to understand your tools!) Of course, complex GUIs are another beast, but usually GUI programming on the low end as it is very hard to test (easily) and requires endless tweaks due to the high configurability of GUIs.

For example, if you just look at GUIs created using Excel/VBA, you will find they seem to need endless tweaking to work just right (edge cases?), but do not at all require a formal CS degree. (I have worked with many non-CS people who are fine a mid-level Excel/VBA stuff.)
Yeah, but the article provides relevant numbers.
But no one actually cares if it meats the requirement. What matters is only if it runs. Unless you need some kind of MS verified system.

The fact is the leaked version runs on a 10 year old toster. the only limit is 64-bit CPU.
