Just for the record, Arch USB ISO has arch-chroot command that does everything needed. So it’s quite easy to troubleshoot, when needed. Just mount what you need and arch-chroot there.

It was today when I first heard of it!

Using Arch for ~7 years or so! Both servers and desktops. Always just manually vimdiff’ed things.

I wanted one to run Linux as on a smartphone (with a battery), and to use the keyboard. So, without any hardware modifications. But it looks like it’s not cheap, even if I’d find it somewhere. So I gave up on the idea. Maybe, I’d just buy some tiny laptop for that.

Thanks for not much, I have never heard of it before.

Did anyone try CLI clients, like (neo)mutt for that? I expect it can be set up on a server (if we consider self-hosting) and do this job automatically. While all the AI thingy feels like magic, my practical experience shows that there are just some keywords or even just the sender, with which mails can be sorted.

Yeah, they did drop a missile without any explosives in Lviv. Just a piece of fucking metal. That’s certainly new. Was worth panicking for the US embassy.

I surely underestimated them. Next time they’d shoot some garbage from Moscow, I guess. Like rotten apples or a missile full of dead rats. They has to demonstrate they haven’t even started to fight with their full might.

Well, civilians is their primary target, and always was. I have some experience of living in Russia, some long time ago, so, back in 2022, I was genuinely surprised they have something to make war longer than a week or two. I thought everything was stolen. But turned out I just understood their culture and especially history not well enough. So, I’m not surprised about seeing donkeys in their attacks on the front lines. As, again, their primary target is us, civilians. Here, they improve their attacks, as I see it. But I cannot believe they can do anything new that we haven’t seen before. They tried everything already. Even nukes wouldn’t be as significant, only the damage is bigger, apparently.

Honestly, I just don’t believe Russia can attack with anything special and somehow surprise us. They demonstrated everything they could already. A significant attack is like an everyday event, isn’t it?

I’d love to learn more, never really worked with them. Is Tailwind much of improvement with these frameworks?

I wonder, just another rename, X → XXX, would do well, wouldn’t it?

That sounds too loud, what’s the actual meaning behind what they’re saying? To me, that looks like maybe they hired too many people assuming their business would only grow. That’s the delusion some Silicon Valley folks have, with the sort of VC culture. Perhaps they shouldn’t grow in employees (why are there employees in the first place?) and try to be sustainable instead. The whole project looks so flashy, but does it even need to grow?

And, forgot to add: what is 75% of employees? Were they tens? Were they a hundred? (Sounds absurd to me, but who knows.)

Edit: according to this HN comment, they fired 3 developers out of 4.

On a personal note, I’m not a fan. I used it in a couple of projects, and wasn’t sold on the idea of never ever learning CSS and make your classes not semantic at all. However, I think there might be cases where this approach makes sense. I just haven’t found it so far.

While I agree, I’d like Apple (and others) to make repairability better (or even exist), but as an owner of quite a lot of Apple tech, it’s very well made, usually. Until it breaks, obviously, but it breaks less than a random cheap brand. At least for me. Any other computer maker is rather unable to lock down the devices the same way. I bet they’d happily do so, if given the opportunity. Plenty of modern laptops with non-swappable memory and even SSDs.
