The dev's response to the "flame war" was the primary reason I switched full time to Nemo and never went back.

The user experiences are very different between the two features and trying to conflate them is a mistake in my opinion. since I use typehead to navigate the file manager quickly without touching the mouse, replacing it with a very slow recursive search made nautilus unusable to me. Even if the search was very fast, though, it would still be a good search but a bad navigation tool.

Luckily there are alternatives and Nemo is a great file manager.

There's a webapp version (clone?) of it: https://webwormhole.io/

There's also a nice go port (single binary) of it: https://github.com/schollz/croc

This is one of the biggest reasons I really like (the python superset) Coconut: https://github.com/evhub/coconut

It reminds me of the attitude of the totalitarian party in charge of the US in Larry Niven's Fallen Angels:

I dual boot windows/linux and the linux client does not have the virtual background options.

I'm using an i7-9700k so it's not a lack of cpu power.

edit: Maybe there's a newer version that supports green screen? The options simply don't exist in my version.

They had a successful launch today in fact: https://spaceflightnow.com/2020/01/16/ariane-5-va-251-missio...

To that end, the dollop did a podcast that talked about the harrowing experience of penguins on an island off Australia: https://thedollop.libsyn.com/207-the-animal-horror-of-macqua...

I've listened to it 4 times so far, it's amazing.

That's neat, I may look at zulip again if I need to setup another server.

From a quick glance, the differences I see are: * In mattermost, different "teams" (or "realms" or "namespaces", whatever) exist on the same server (same url), and a user account that logs in will only see the teams they are assigned to. A single user account can be assigned to multiple teams (they appear on the left, similar to how the slack desktop app shows multiple server connections).

* Zulip requires a different subdomain for each "realm", and it sounds like users have to log into each one separately. It is not clear if the same account is shared between organizations or a user must have separate accounts.

So it sounds like Zulip's approach is separate, isolated "organizations", like slack, just hosted on the same server. Where Mattermost's approach is more like having separate, but integrated teams/groups/namespaces that a single account can be part of.

I looked at Zulip vs Mattermost several months ago and, if I recall correctly, this was one of the primary reasons I went with Mattermost. I just wanted something I could spin up in docker on a vps without having to setup anything else (like an email server). Mattermost lets you generate "invite links" that you can just paste in a chat or text message.

The other really neat feature was having multiple "teams" on a single server.

There's already a really cool python project called Pyro (python remote objects): https://pyro4.readthedocs.io/en/stable/intro.html

I haven't used it since I was in undergrad (>10 years) where I used it to communicate between nodes on a small cluster, but it made RPC really easy.

> I assume it's because LastPass sends you the multi factor auth request before accessing your passwords

This would seem like a logical assumption, but I have found that it works differently (at least on the firefox plugin). If I have auto-fill enabled, the password for a site I am looking at is filled in before the MFA prompt pops up. I can even ignore the MFA pop-up and click login and get into the website.

> This here desk I have here is about 1.7 times as long as it is wide. No inches or centimeters required.

But you are using units. Your unit is the width of your desk. If it were a different width but the same length, your measurement would be different.

The first thing I did was walk into a building and try to go up some stairs. I got wedged between the stairs and the wall and couldn't move. There doesn't appear to be anything you can do at this point but close the page.

Maybe a better question is why should the black cabs be regulated so much?
