I organize with Drafthouse in Austin and they did the same here a week or two ago. Just blatant union busting in the guise of layoffs.

I used mutt back in the day, opening vim for message editing.

I wouldn't do a mailing list these days, but as someone who spent the early part of my career interacting with devs that preferred this method, it's actually pretty ergonomic by a 2005 standard. A message thread aware, text based email client that can turn messages into patches in a keystroke makes it actually pretty comparable to modern code review...

I think it's hard for younger devs to get this because they're used to email being stuck in a crappy, unthreaded browser interface or Outlook etc. (which are terrible for mailing lists) and most collaboration taking place in code review and chat platforms like Teams/Slack but for decades before these were feasible, email was the way...

GNOME 3 introduced the current shell paradigm where you don't really have a start menu but a variety of searches, integrated indicators, per-app desktops with a dock etc.

Before, it was far more conventional experience like Plasma/Windows/Cinnamon are now. GNOME 2 was forked to be the MATE desktop if you want to check it out.

These are such great episodes. The Enterprise one specifically is amazing. We so often see our valiant crew save Earth, but they almost never sacrifice their morals to do so.

For Archer, with practically all of humanity in the balance, how could he not fuck those guys over?

Well said. Especially agree on point one. I'm not a fan of the Discovery era characterization of Section 31, but ultimately there was no reason they had to be related to this movie at all. Georgiou had plenty of personal reasons to deal with this and to have a collection of ne'er-do-wells on hand without any involvement from Starfleet / S31.

Yeah, I was watching Potato McWhiskey and this is his take. They have metrics that show most people don't actually finish a game and that indicates a pretty big flaw in game design.

One interesting thing the devs brought up was the ability to pivot from one civ to another based on new information. Like if you discover your continent is mostly plains and horses, then maybe your next iteration looks more like the Mongols, with bonuses to cavalry. If your early conquest didn't go off, maybe you pivot to a more science or culture oriented civ.

I don't hate these ideas, it just depends on how it actually feels in game.

I default to piracy too, but I'm guessing you don't listen to a lot of new music. The thing a music service offers isn't just access, it's discoverability. It didn't replace my FLAC collection, it expanded it. What it replaced was listening to the radio to find new stuff.

For video I'm more with you. I'm happy to rely on word of mouth. Especially since the streaming services drop movies all the time and discriminate against watching in a browser. Getting a good rip means you can watch it anywhere, anytime, and not have to worry about it disappearing.

I have a couple of very minor commits in Linux and, in the 3.0 era, had my name at the top of a source file for a platform that never saw the light of day and was later removed wholesale.

Still feel that invisible feather in my cap.

Basically just start with what you're aiming to enable and work backwards (as you've started to do). With judicious use of grep find out where that symbol is defined. If it's in arch configs for other arches but not your own, it's probably that.

There may be better tools out there to do this, but in my experience just sleuthing it out a bit will answer your question. The Kconfig system can be complex, but the files are pretty readable.

Ideally the FDA should not be swayed by business interests, but everything controlled by our government is. That said, you want the FDA to exist and protect us from bullshit snake oil products and keep corporations from lacing our food with cheap poisons and carcinogens.

Trump gutting the organization makes it go from "could do better" to "actively subverting its own purpose."

It's subjective. Easy builds can be super fun. Especially if you earned it by getting some gear. It's also an accessibility issue. Not everyone is 25 years old with lightning reflexes (or, conversely, not everyone has 20 years of history with the genre).

Anyway, my point was only that if you're bored with being OP, try something different. If you think you're invincible but killing things is a slog, maybe shift your gear to be more offensive etc. The way these games work, difficulty is entirely up to you.
