XML is the reason why XMPP is not widely adopted. XML is such a painful configuration structure.

This CMS appears to be a breath of fresh air amid the toxicity in the WordPress world.

Considering devs are looking at complaints/features in this thread, I will post one: In WordPress, I can copy a plugin folder from one old project into a new one and enable it in the ui without touching code or cli. I see the benefit of defining plugins through a cli tool, but I also like the copy-paste folder structure of early 00's software.

> Wright Waste Management did not allow CBS News to enter and inspect its premises. Still, the news team's drone camera discovered that all the trash picked up from the Houston Recycling Collaboration (HRC) was apparently just sitting there on its premises, stacked more than 10 feet high.

Anyone else bothered by CBS's lack of decency here? They flew a drone inside a place they could not enter.

(in a middle 30's aged voice:) This youngin does not realize that blowing in the cartridge did three things - 1.) Allowed the cartridge to reset, 2.) Removed dust particles on the contacts, and 3.) lowered the temperature inside the hot electronics which had no ventilation.

Native English speaker here that has a Fedora box as a daily driver.

I thought this title referenced cars driving in a south american rain forest.

Now I know why Android is written in Java - they are a bunch of comedians! Everything is a joke to them!

In all seriousness, career changes are very hard. I hope the best for him.

I am glad these phones were not Nokias. Who knows what damage they would have caused.

Why is it that one can have a Happy holiday, birthday, thanksgiving, halloween, etc., but only have a Merry Christmas??

This is a good guide to set up an email server, yet it lacks describing PTR Records (aka reverse DNS) and that some cloud providers block outgoing email unless you ask support to turn it on.

It means they cannot schedule time off of work to care for an illness, surgery, etc. It would prompt most to search for other lines of work but, in rural counties, not much else is available.

I think he means the end time is between 9pm and 11pm. The start of the shift is not mentioned.

The author needs to look into confd. I wrote about it in 2017: https://andrewwippler.com/2017/11/28/reusable-containers-wit...

Am I missing something? Isn't SELinux supposed to mitigate/stop the attacks described?

I already live in a world where money can expire in 60 to 120 days.

It's called a check, and hardly anybody accepts them anymore.

The common denominator for getting a good bargain is camping outside to arrive early or visiting regularly. While I like a good deal, I do not care for those style of deals.

This is simply not true. My grandpa was an early adopter in '92 and had an internet connection to his home in Little Falls, MN.

Interesting graph.

I believe too much CO2 in the atmosphere is a bad thing, but it is hard to find good, global suggested remediations to this issue.

- I use public transportation with my family of 6. (We do not own a car). - My kids walk to school ~1 mile away. - I stopped buying oak, because I read somewhere oak removes a good amount of CO2 over other types of trees. - We live in an area where it is easy to find evironmentally-concerned food producers and buy from them.

What else is there left for us to do?
