Funny, I found flameshot years ago looking for a Linux to Skitch. What’s lacking in the built-in tool?

I’ve done this by making every passcode a phone number for someone important. Mom’s phone number unlocks the computer, Dad’s phone number unlocks the tablet.

Liturgically, the day begins at sundown and both the Holy Week and Paschal services are moved to the beginning of the Liturgical day “in anticipation”. So the Lamentation service of Holy Saturday will have been said on the calendar-Friday and the first services of Pascha, the Rush Procession and Orthros (Matins), will start on calendar-Saturday. So, Pascha begins on Saturday, but also on Sunday depending on your reference point.

I’ve managed to upgrade an i7 T480 with a new display, glass trackpad, WiFi 6e, 2xNVME SSD and 64GB ram. It has 2 USB-C ports, on of which is thunderbolt. I also have an actual dock for it and batteries for hot-swap.

If they made anything close to the expandability of these, I’d be buying that as well.

It looked funny pairing for bit of Greek I know until I read the link and realized it wasn’t really Greek.

People who found this interesting may also be interested in historian David Hackett Fisher's book "The Great Wave". He examines the possible correlation of consumables prices to societal upheavals from the mid 1200s on.

I don't suppose you remember the "IBM OS/2 Fiesta Bowl"?

I’ve been surprised with what you can accomplish with data URIs. Embedding a MP4 can work great, but your text editor will likely hate it.

What I’ve noticed in my years with various databases is that many SQL parsers error on ambiguity and not necessarily strict compliance. In the case above the parser is likely dropping the parentheses where in the union there’s ambiguity because of the use of two sets and it can’t tell between which set’s b you’d like to order by.

I wonder what it would do if you aliased the subquery and ordered by alias_one.b

Where are these datacenters? I live in Ohio in the area of two of the points on the home page at https://sia.tech/ One appears to be a private residence or a farm. The other dot is literally on a golf course fairway, is a private residence, or a power substation.

I use the olkb plank (https://olkb.com/planck?category=eotw) both at home and at the office. It started as fun to build, solder, and program but I soon realized that I was less fatigued after typing all day. My wrists don't break outward and I maintain my proper starting position longer as result of having less distance to travel between keystrokes. Take it for what it's worth, but at the very least they are a fun hobby project.

Also, the standard library for ASP.NET either had gaps or somewhat incompatible implementations of features. I’d give time to attempt a port of a mid-size web forms app every couple years but ran into a number of issues each time.

It was an amazing achievement, but never quite got me there.

I think one of the overlooked things of the process-per-request CGI scripts we ran back in the day is how you might run out of PIDs. I remember this happening once, but I think(50/50) it was because the PID was a 16-bit value at the time and the system and an uptime of about 6 months.

As a matter of fact, I think he actually answered the question:

“One danger of the MsgWaitForMultipleObjects function is calling it when there are already messages waiting to be processed, because MsgWaitForMultipleObjects returns only when there is a new event in the queue.“

I have not had luck finding an equal to iTerm2 on Linux. While there are many to choose from, few combine all the features (color support, themes, layouts, configurable hot-keys for navigating panes, etc.) in one package.

The one thing I miss the most is having nearly border-less panes for differing font sizes. To my knowledge, that can't be done on tmux or screen.

I'd welcome any suggestion of a terminal with the features of iTerm2.

Given that homebrew tends to occupy /usr/local, I've grown comfortable with making my own ~/local folder with src, bin and app/server folders. I tend to use it for just about everything one might want in a /usr/local directory.
