It was awesome back when during the install you could just select “LAMP”, and a full stack web server suite would be automatically set up and configured correctly out of the box. But those days are long gone.

My kid discovered that he can hit the “report” button on the YouTube app on the TV to skip the ads immediately. So now every ad gets reported as “inappropriate”.
I’m proud of him.

There may be a thin cloud layer or two on Jupiter you might enjoy.

Can you imagine we did this shit over dialup too? I was there. In the dark times.
I heard a good comparison on here a while ago: Github is to Git as Pornhub is to porn.

Linux@lemmy.ml•If all kernel bugs are security bugs, how do you keep your Linux safe?

Yeah, I corrected myself.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Prossimo project aims to replace memory unsafe C/C++ code with Rust
2·2 years agoI’m at the level of finally understanding pointers, templates, and operator/function overloads and using them pretty effortlessly now. I looked at some Rust code. I’m not sure I have the brain plasticity to take that on at my age now without massive struggling.
As always on the Internet, rule 34 applies.
After more research, you might be right. I could have sworn I saw full URLs in my router logs on encrypted sites though. I’ll have to check again.
They can see the entire URL, not just the domain. They just can’t see the contents themselves. But they can still see “dudesfuckingfurniture.com/gettingfreakywithadresser.mpeg”
Edit: I might be wrong

Linux@lemmy.ml•Are there any discrepancies between the resources an OS uses when running in a virtual machine vs being ran directly?
4·2 years agoA container is just an environment where it appears to any program running within it that it has full access to the computer, while in reality it’s “jailed” and isolated from the rest of the system. The OS resources are shared with the container, instead of the hardware resources as in a virtual machine. There’s no hardware being emulated. It’s a beefed up version of a chroot.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Prossimo project aims to replace memory unsafe C/C++ code with Rust
10·2 years agoI’m in my 40s, and finally decided to give C/C++ a serious go and try to learn them at a competent level after decades of putting it off, and now everybody wants to move to Rust.

Also, they’re absolutely full of self-tapping screws.
I think I just figured out a way to see where they are supported from on the inside…

13·2 years agolife needs light
Sea floor extremophiles: exist
Enceladus’ core likely interacts with the ocean through hydrothermal vents, similar to structures found on Earth’s ocean floor. These vents are believed to have played a role in the origin of life on our planet.
There are lifeforms on Earth that still live off these vents.
What? No, I just mean to give the original creator of the game the credit he deserves. It was originally stolen from him.

Memes@lemmy.ml•A few drinks in, and I immediately start talking about the inevitable collapse of humanity in the hands of capitalism.
52·2 years agoThat person is me. Asperger’s is a hell of a drug.

Yeah now they do. Back in the early 2000s, I only remember Ubuntu having just a single option to install everything needed to be up and running on first boot. Everything else needed some tweaking of configs and quite a bit of domain knowledge to get started at the time. It’s what jumpstarted me into PHP development.
