Would you prefer "labelled as by the US Department of Homeland Security"?
Are any of them associated with domestic terrorism?
The "caucasian" there is redundant.
If it's not in your power to resolve an issue with your machine by the end of the work day, you should feel no pressure to stay late and fix it.

So you've verified the person in the screenshot saying they've arranged for bombs to be planted has been banned?

So that measures transfer speeds, but what about the rest of the things USB carries?

With an electron app, I have access to your file system and can start deleting things. Yes, some operating systems might gate access but it's not standard or granular enough.

While the file system api in browsers requires your approval.

Re:An Introduction to PipeWire on Sunday August 28, 2022 @06:16PM (#32632604)
Hmm, I suppose that could work, didn't think about targeting the Pipewire api.

I didn't play around with it much, but the controller did appear as a 5.1 (or was it 7.1?) in Linux.

Oh, and I forgot, the controller itself also has a headphone jack. The controller itself can take 3 audio streams, two of which can be used for sound.

I was playing Spider-Man with a dual sense and got wondering. That game puts out audio to your speakers, a separate audio stream to the speaker in the controller, and _another_ stream of audio for the haptics. Is this any bit possible with any Linux audio solution?

So if I was heading a project and we had one CI provider and someone suggested adding another, my response would be either "no", or try to have the benefits of this alternative service explained to me. And if it is better, would only accept the new one if we converted all old pipelines over to it. Is that wrong?

curl has 7???? I would love to understand why. The article has "reasons", but not many justifications. Load balancing is understandable. "not all eggs in the same basket" less so to me. Are they running identical suites on multiple providers? If so, what's the plan when one suite fails on one but works on another?

Just seems mad to me. "If this is stuff you like to tinker with, we could use your help" best of luck with that!

I don't know of a site, but Taki Udon on YouTube follows them very closely.

Retro Dodo does as well.

"The best" is very subjective unfortunately. And the answer will change based on what you're looking for.

IE I've searched for "the best" and ended up with an android phone in a telescopic controller before getting a Steam Deck.

I love that CircleCI flaunts it's speed compared to other providers, meanwhile we can clearly see the CircleCI steps take the longest in our builds.

Not to mention the constant failures.

Re:Using the same Arch Linux installation for a decade on Tuesday August 16, 2022 @04:54PM (#32488767)
Nowadays arch install ISOs have an `archinstall` script that can get you going for basic setups.
Re:Ask HN: Can I see your scripts? on Monday August 15, 2022 @02:37PM (#32473541)
Curious, what's the difference with this and `apt-get --fix-broken install`?
If an app uses the non-OS supplied web view I just assume they're doing nefarious things.

Coincidentally the only apps I have that don't use the OS supplied web view are from Meta.

I'm confused by all the mention of "what colour apple uses" in messages, message bubbles are a mask over a gradient
I'm confused, you say you want the "old" versions of Winamp, but Winamp has had a media library since the "old" versions. Maybe you can ignore the current one just as you always have and not base your diatribe off one screenshot in an article?

Yup, this is the curse of Bluetooth headsets

> You can't import JSDoc types from other files

Yes, you can. Using `import('./someFile').SomeType`

Though I do agree, JSDoc works, but isn't as nice as directly writing types in a .ts file

Is this data like way off or something? https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/suicide-deaths-firearms
And back to the original question, how do you copy the font size from the breakpoint rules, the margin from the second set of rules, and the font family from the third, with a callout to the breakpoint, in a single click using Firefox dev tools?
Not sure those are the same at all? The submission copies all applied styles, complete with breakpoints. A class / id is only a portion of applicable styles, multiple selectors can match the same element. This is more like copying the non-auto rules in the "Computed" tab, with breakpoints.

Chrome has "Copy Styles", but that doesn't get breakpoints. I don't know if Firefox does, but I haven't looked very much. It doesn't look like Safari does either.
