I excitedly thought this was an indictment of the X Window System, which is decidedly not bad in my experience.

What a relief that it's just another pants-shitting opine over the trillionaire.

Calls to mind a long forgotten, and perhaps one of the most useful bash scripts I've written which addressed this issue in a very rudimentary way; Curl a url, hash the result to file, compare the current hash to the saved hash from the previous run and generate an email on diff.

My goal was to monitor the online release of tickets for the 2009 Scion Rock fest (luckily no js, or even Adobe Flash[!] in use), and it worked brilliantly to that end.

The tornado?

Perhaps you didnt read that these are "production-ready golden baselines validated for enterprise deployment."

How does their golden nature not dissuade these concerns for you?

Obviously YMMV, but I bought some Amazon MTB pedals rated 4.7 starts @ 9k ratings. One suffered a catastrophic failure, shearing off at the crank and I was pitched over the bars.

Design and manufacturing is obviously a major part of the equation with this product sector, and no doubt the Chinese can do that as good as, or even better than domestic brands in many respects. What they don't do as well, as far as I'm aware, is any significant destructive testing.

The bonus is I can now spend even more absurd amounts of money on bike components, which is the true dream of any true cycling enthusiast.

Vibrant communities are perhaps a product of, but certainly not defined solely by their territory.

Luckily they're comprised of humans (mostly? Probably another discussion), and the ability to migrate is component to their nature; the good ones find greener pastures and adapt as necessary to define their next generation.

Personally I don't even start a 'ride' in Zwift for my Z2 rides for this very reason. I stare at the title screen and use my phone (connected via BT from an adjacent room so as not to be tempted to use it) to load the smart trainer. Finally I use fans, but as exhaust to create negative pressure that pulls as much O2 out of the room as possible.

Next week plan is to start riding without bibs or a saddle so as to maximize the anguish.

Many fond memories of my dad struggling to make this run on our family PC which was well below the system requirements, his eventual success and my ultimate love of the game.

I'm with you, including NC customership and excluding a want of registrars to provide even DNS, let alone mail and hosting.

That said, GoDaddy makes about half of it's annual revenue from it's 'core' business (domain name sales) over again in 'apps and commerce' (stuff you and I don't, but clearly many other less enlightened people want).

The 'A&C' segment grew 13% in 2023 as opposed to 2% of core business.

Not for nothing, I'm a fan of my early gen xReal air, though mostly for an on-the-go coding use case.

I link it up to my phone, wire up a 60% keyboard and fire up a VPN/ssh. The Galaxy DeX environment is pretty usable for other apps, and a BT mouse can alleviate the goofiness of the "phone as a touchpad" control scheme.

I've used it with an HDMI/usb-c cable from my desktop and it works just as well, though attempting to switch between virtual and real displays through the glasses is headache-inducing at best.

I'd say you accomplish 60% of the effect of the AVP, conservatively.

This is precisely my use case for using vim exclusively, and why I force myself to operate with a minimal config.
