Yeah I figure Hokkaido may get a taste but we here in Honshu never do :'(

We never get aurora in Japan :(

I live in Japan. This is great! Though with all the overlay it’s hard to pinpoint my neighborhood. A gps loc button or the ability to temporarily turn off the colors would help! Thank you for making such a fun thing :)

hmm. I made a post about "Imagining All the People. Poetry Inspired by Beatles Lyrics" but it didn't make the list. I'm guessing it's because there were no comments? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46296428 https://www.thebeatleworksltd.com/

Unfortunately it's still down :(

How about joysound Wii support?

Really surprised fosstodon.org doesn't get mentioned on HN more..

I was about to set one of these up until the mocking birds showed up. Does it compensate for the rotation of those sounds? I know seagulls arent hanging around my yard

Unreal indeed. I set up my wife's elderly parents in Japan with Hangouts years ago so we could video call them by actually.. you know.. hitting the 'call' button to ring their computer. This worked seamlessly for years with no effort on their part. When the computer 'rang' they knew to click answer. After hearing that hangouts was going away (what is it like 3 times that's been delayed?) I moved them to Google Chat but boy was that a mistake. You cannot 'ring' the other caller anymore and have to set up a meeting for each call. Or you have to set up a perpetual meeting which they can always go in to. This has caused us to miss many video calls and constant frustration for my wife trying to explain to them how to use that function. Why in the world does Google remove features in new solutions when they deprecate an old one? Can't they simply make a list of things that work in the old app and check them off in the new one? I realize zoom is all trendy now but geez...

Shoulda just stuck with Skype or something else.

Daily Slackware user for many years. So excited to see Pat hit another one out of the park. Contrats sir and to all the folks who support Slackware!

Still figuring out if this is satire or not... A lot of people still have strong feelings here

Hopefully this explains it... https://twitter.com/2FAS_com/status/1487063320804929537

"As you know, eBay recently acquired the P2P company Skype for more than two billion dollars," Yagan said. "Note that Skype was founded offshore; it would be a real tragedy and a blow to our economy should all technology entrepreneurs take their innovations offshore."

Been following and using BWC's (Blackwingcat) Kernelex for years. Those same instructions will get you very recent versions of Chrome as well for daily browsing use. BWC hasn't posted an update in quite a while. I hope he's doing well!

Next stable version is right around the corner. Latest plasma, xfce, and kernel should be in all while staying true to those 'boring' principals

I owned USO and sold it on 4/21. I lost money of course. It seems USO could never go negative according to what you said and I could only go to 0 but I learned my lesson to stay out of futures for good

Slackware. Now and forever.

Is this true? I've never heard this before.

Slackware lines up more with the original philosophy this article talks about. I like taking Slackware in either stable or -current and running it in this article instead of Debian ... If you wanna run Linux with a distro that hasnt changed its overall philosophy, structure, or hell even core software you should be looking at Slackware again. 15 will likely be out this year.

I got a perfect rating :) Thank you very much!!

Yes, and it works so well that I cannot imagine what the benefits of Aerc could have over it. I guess I'll have to do a comparison !

I also feel the same way. He may have committed some heinous crimes outside of the actual hacking/leaking but to say we all didn't benefit from what we learned regarding how our government spies on us would just be flat out wrong..

In case it's fixed by the time everyone sees this: https://web.archive.org/web/20190331190030/https://www.devua...

🇯🇵 Cool

I may be doing it wrong but the lack of IME (Japanese) Input support and the refusal of the author to support it is quite sad and makes it a non-starter for me and I assume many others

I literally just compiled 4.20.11 for Slackware. I swear these things are popping up more often. Or more likely since spectre I've just been paying more attention

They still haven't separated the USB/Ethernet Bus :/
