dschep··on [dead]

dschep··on On the state of Windows on the desktop

Not AFAIK (win7).

dschep··on Alias.sh: for finding, sharing and storing bash aliases

I think you mean Python 2 for the SimpleHTTPServer example.

dschep··on Save your eyes, start using f.lux

Thats what I read elsewere, but it didn't work for me either. Running fglrx.

dschep··on Lego's Mindstorms EV3 robots are here

Didn't know they made these.

I remember building a mux for touch sensors with some resistors and reading it as a light sensor.

dschep··on Lego's Mindstorms EV3 robots are here

Was that using brickOS (previously legOS)? I always stuck to NQC since it was powerful enough for my (likewise) early-teen self but worked with the stock firmware.

dschep··on Stripe adds two-factor auth

2) Because they're using RFC 6238 TOTPs and Google Authenticator is a good client for it that people are comfortable with.

dschep··on Psy Makes $8.1 Million By Ignoring Copyright Infringements Of Gangnam Style

Regardless of fair use, Weird Al gets permission: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weird_al#Reactions_from_origin...

dschep··on HTTP Headers For Fun & Profit

Slashdot used to have Futurama quotes in their (X-Bender and X-Fry iirc). Don't seem to any more however.

dschep··on Private By Default

It's still used in the tab, just not the address bar.

dschep··on When it comes to DRM, Amazon is a bottom feeding Hell Beast

> AAC is not a proprietary format ("iTunes media files" — it is to MP4 what MP3 is to MPEG). Other media players can and do support AAC if it has no DRM.

Both AAC & MP3 are patent encumbered and require licenses for implementation.

dschep··on Serious Sam 3 Developer: "Gabe Newell did not Overreact on Windows 8"

That's "easy" for development. Suggesting that it's something all end users of Steam should do is absurd.

dschep··on Nexus: The best of Google, now in three sizes

There was also a 3.2 Honeycomb release.

dschep··on This is Google’s Nexus 10 by Samsung With Android 4.2

The button bar + notification bar looks strange on a 10" screen. It was OK on the Nexus 7, but does cramp the screen in portrait. I wonder what their rationalization for it on a 10" screen is.

dschep··on Population Pyramids of All Countries (1950-2100)

parallels:

- UAE has similar gender imbalance http://populationpyramid.net/United+Arab+Emirates/2010/

- Germany has similar aging issues http://populationpyramid.net/Germany/2010/

dschep··on Thanks Mr. Jobs, But it Seems I Can Use a Linux Laptop Now

All the custom stuff is in a PPA[1]. Some of the patches are already merged into Quantal.

Irrelevant. The XPS13 only has Intel graphics.
