You have never had some family member experience a broken website that they needed to work but you were not around to fix it on the server side?

Nobody is talking about the “3996 characters left”.

That’s room for a novel of positivity.

My son asked for DDR5 ram for Christmas and I had to explain this to him.

That’s real engineering when you throw away the first draft and start over.

As opposed to quitting or trying to force the first approach riddled with problems to work.

But companies like to make money default though.

Let me get this straight, you want to suspend AND resume?

No word on how puncture-resistant the new design is.

I assumed this stage had already happened.

Enjoy the interview with Hamid Ali, owner/operator of the Doner Kebab food truck on the No Dishes podcast.

From $100 in his pocket to a successful food truck business.

$70 if you hand deliver it to me. It’s my final offer.

Coming to the next James Bond movie.

 

This poorly designed table on the AWS website appears to show that neither tier of their new AI agent "Q" offers "Peace of Mind".

Maybe the table was designed by AI, too? "PRICE", "FEATURES" and "PEACE OF MIND" are supposed to be understood as section headers, but the design doesn't work because they didn't also put "price" on its own row and they pointlessly used alternate-row background colors. They could have used background cell colors to communicate which rows were section headers.

Progress towards universal Copy/Paste shortcuts on Linux

 

Keyboards with custom firmware supports keycodes like XF86Copy and XF86Paste. These are great for having truly global copy/paste shortcuts that also work in apps like terminals where "Control-V" and "Control-C" aren't supported by default.

I advocated that these keycodes be supported in a web browser, Qutebrowser. The author of that project, Florian Bruhin liked the idea and submitted a patch upstream to the QT framework, which is used by many apps associated with the KDE Linux desktop. And about 5 years later, apps will be packaged with QT 6.10 that include the fix.

Here’s the change description.

This adds support for the Help, Open, Close, Save, New, Cut, Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, Back, Forward, Refresh, ZoomIn, ZoomOut, Find, Settings, Exit, and Cancel keys to the default keyboard shortcuts.

The bug report:

It is reportedly plug-n-play for basic features, but for more advanced features, something like this project would need to be patched to add support for the camera.
