Apparently wiki identifies it as a “pointing stick”.

…also, I find it amusing that the article does use the term clitmouse.

Yes, both links and lynx are terminal based browsers. I remember using them to browse the Gentoo handbook when trying to do my first install.

Thanks for the nostalgic flashback.

I’m sure there are opinions both ways. I think the reason Fedora is the headline is because it is the more recent addition. Lenovo has had an Ubuntu option on some machines for a few years now. Fedora is a fairly recent addition.

Wow, I learned this bug during a job interview I had this week. I’m not much of a Python guy, but I was givin a Python coding challenge and I tried default initializing a parameter to an empty list. The guy interviewing me looked horrified and explained the problem and sent me an article about it to read later. It’s a odd coincidence coming across it twice in one week.

Good news. After reading the article, it seems like the content and the course will still exist, it is just that Yale has decided that it cant afford to pay ULA’s to support the class.

For those who just want to learn, the course content can still be found here: https://www.edx.org/cs50

Yep, I love it. I told my wife about it and she thinks I’m crazy.

I know many sports games a lot of the adverts are imposed digitally before broadcast. I don’t watch a lot of sports, but I would certainly enjoy watching more if there were an option to disable the added adverts.

I’m curious what your relationship with abortion is. Do you know anyone who has had one or even considered one? People aren’t waking up and casually deciding “well, I guess I’m going to go kill a baby today!”. Every single one is a complex decision weighing the risks and benefits of everyone involved. Ignoring tens of thousands of people suffering through what is one of the most difficult emotional events I can imagine and reducing it to a game of numbers doesn’t seem fair.

As someone who has watched less than an hour of anything on twitch, I guess I’m going to change my avoidance of the site from passive to active.

Instead of adding an account to the device with all of the management software that goes with it, one could use a generic SMTP email client (K-9 Mail?) and still get the email, but not have to worry about the privacy and remote administration concerns.

Edit: nevermind, I skimmed the question at first, and didn’t see the duo limitation. This solution probably isn’t an option.

Since my last comment, I learned that my local library has a few machines and a serger that you can reserve time on. I think that is going to be how I avoid buying my own for a while, and possibly a social setting I may learn from others.

Curiously, what sort of fights do you have with your sewing machine? I just started getting into sewing a couple months ago. I’m currently using a borrowed machine and haven’t had any major issues yet. I was hoping to buy my own soon and wanted to know if there were specific features that commonly cause problems.

I like puting my prototype code in namespaces like “garbage” “trash” “throwaway” etc to emphasize how unfit for production. I’ve no concrete evidence of it’s success, but I like to think it dissuades other team members from using it where they shouldn’t.

Can I just be anti-using-guns-to-dispute-opinions?

It’s a bit of a forced joke, but whenever possible, I like to use “X-crete” as the verb to replace “tweet”.

…you mean IF you’ve got infinite time to wait?

Vim has it’s own way to edit/brows remote files. Checkout netrw:

As a started reading I thought “Hmm, some of these remind me of [coworker x]”. As I continued I realized all of these remind me of [coworker x].

I might have to turn some of these into bingo cards.

…working on it…
