As in the pig from Charlotte’s Web?

Dunno. I use Debian, so that stuff just works from day 1.

Guess: Junctions are weighted.

There’s an extra junction on the green route. Junctions often add delays when giving way to traffic, so the algorithm may choose routes with fewer.

Seriously, wtf Redhat?

Long term and by all accounts, valuable, employee makes a reasonable request for distance working and gets denied? What’s more, them leaving has landed them with a serious problem about maintaining key software.

I’ve not been a big fan of Redhat for some years now, but that’s a new IBM smelling low. Their best years are definitely behind them.

This can’t be a surprise to anyone though, right?

There’s like a million threads on this already. If you’re genuinely interested you would have looked, but you’re clearly karma farming for a brand new account.

Year of linux?

Dude, please. I’m on my third decade of the thing already.

It’s only your definition of what common sense is that is convincing you that you’re right and everyone else in your country is wrong.

If you’re so certain, stop talking and start doing. You think the courts will say “Hang on chaps, this axet person has a point, let’s throw away all precedence and case law since our system started”?

ou think this ‘makes the case look stupid’ because it challenges the very language of the system. You want to play by their rules; I’m questioning the source of their rules.

As is your right, but nobody’s going to take such an argument seriously.

I think it’s too early to be making decisions based on this alone.

No problem, and yes, that’s correct - once you have your own domain then you can hop between providers a lot more easily as you don’t need to change a thousand web accounts when you do. It’s also useful if you move into self-hosting in the future.

docker’s cli makes a lot of sense to me. Anything that supports “application logical-command --help” gets a big tick.

But yeah, bash itself is great.

(Have read you’re not interested in self hosting - I think that’s very sensible. It’s a lot of work and even then, very difficult to do it well and be reliable)

Suggest finding a reputable email provider, and they will require payment.

I recently moved from gmail to proton. The migration process was very smooth, with proton copying over all my existing email and calendars from gmail. However, their web clients are very slow in comparison (since they’re encrypted - click on an email and it’s 3 seconds or so to open, an eternity!). I find that annoying enough that I’ve setup thunderbird via a proxy, but that has negated some of the ease of use.

There are quite a few good options around, maybe others will chip in with recommendations.

Once you have a new mail client, your [email protected] address will not be valid. However, if you want it to, you can keep your old email account with gmail as well, and have it forward all incoming email to your new home. That allows you to gradually move your accounts over at your own speed. I think this is important as there will be more than you expect of them, but the process isn’t hard.

Most of those new providers will also allow you to use a personal domain, and multiple users. So you can register a domain that stays with you - that’s the domain.org bit of your email address, and multiple users - the bit before the @.

The good providers will have guides and documentation about helping you through this also.

The Garmin stuff (I’ve used Oregon a lot - various models since 2011) auto-saves tracks as GPX and is very reliable about that.

The newer stuff also saves as .FIT with extra info.

When you plug these into a computer by USB they appear as a normal extra drive, with the files available natively. As /u/Shimitar says, they don’t need the cloud, or an account (unless they have changed that)

They’re also pretty robust and weather proof.

Downsides - expensive. Sometimes limited features. The cameras on the Oregons are useless, and you mention a camera is needed - so it depends what features you want, your budget, and the range.

Companies are already using AI to generate their own versions of expensive proprietary software (Triggered no doubt by https://developers.slashdot.org/story/25/09/29/1733238/new-claude-model-runs-30-hour-marathon-to-create-11000-line-slack-clone - a project that is entirely closed source)

As prompt engineering gets better and more reliable, why wouldn’t they? And honestly, I’d cheer. Commercial software pricing is so blatantly predatory (We won’t give you a price until you tell us who you are so we can charge you what we think you can pay, rather than what it’s worth) that skipping it entirely is a no brainer if you have some in-house support.

Any arts store or online you can get a sheet of dark coloured stickers for cheaps that have become essential in modern life. Quick, easy, removable. Even on nova-quality LEDs where light still escapes, you can double up.

On several over-bright backlit LCD screens, where I still need to read the info, I create a simple hinge with thin cardboard and a short strip of sticky tape. Cardboard flaps down but can be lifted up to see the info.

I have a sheet of dark coloured stickers specifically for this task.

Whilst I love a foss drama as much as the next person; It’s clear the dev here has shown /some/ humility and self awareness after the fact.

And whilst it doesn’t change his actions, and if it’s true, receiving death threats from people is completely unacceptable. I hope he has reported those to the police and that they are traced and appropriate action taken. (here in the UK, making a death threat over the internet would get you jailed for up to ten years). Being abusive is cowardly, unneccesary and shameful.

No call to be facetious. It’s true for most western countries, and possibly more globally - these things tend to follow certain rules of legal and financial logic.

I know this is just some shitty marketing phrase, but I don’t think that would even work, legally. AIUI, to be a company (ie, a limited company) requires being registered with human directors, as they check you’re not banned from being one.
