Personally, my local Cloudflare seems to have some problem with IPv6 and some sites won't load. On my desktop I've set Firefox to use IPv4 for such sites, but on my phone I need to use mobile data (which doesn't support IPv6). I don't think it's a common problem, but you did ask.

Mild spoilers ahead, but you're reading the solutions thread.

I was just doing some preliminary checking of the data on my phone with Nushell (to see how much my ageing laptop would suffer) when I discovered there weren't any non trivial cases.

Normally I get the test data working before trying the input data, this is definitely teaching me the value of investigating the data before heading down into the code mines.

Unfortunately I can't get the second star yet because I missed a few days.

If programming.dev is down, it's helpful to be able to see @meta@programming.dev from other instances and check for planned downtime, etc.

I've been using Vimium C, but as it's based on Vimium it may have the same problem.

I started but then I noticed the scrollbar and realised it's a lot longer read than I have the attention for right now - to the "read later (yeah right)" pile with you!

Wow, that's even more impressive then - they added a defect and a different problem occurred and it still landed. I caught some of the stream and heard the SpaceX audience's reaction to that fin burning away - I thought they sounded more excited than worried.

I've been building my music collection since I was ripping CDs by hitting play, recording in Win95 Sound Recorder and running the .wav through LAME (nowadays EAC to flac, of course). I see no need to pay a subscription to listen to my music, when I can just use that same money to buy and own the albums* and not worry about them disappearing.

* also means more money goes to the artist

Also Navidrome + Symfonium means I can still stream to my phone so the only benefit Spotify etc has is new music, but YouTube (+ uBlock) gives me that.

I went with Fedora on my VPS because I was also planning to use rootless Podman. Quadlets and running everything through systemd with SELinux enabled is working pretty well for me.

Apple reverse engineered a file format, Beeper reverse engineered a protocol.

Microsoft made several changes to try to keep Apple out, Apple's also made several changes to keep Beeper out, except now everyone's online so it's happening way faster.

It's not exactly the same kind of reverse engineering, but I never said it was. I think you've got a very narrow definition of reverse engineering in your head and you're quibbling over me using it more broadly than you would.

I can't tell if this is sound medical advice or not. Seems legit, apart from perhaps alcohol might be too rough on the ear drum.

Is it?
Wikipedia says:

Jamais vu is often described as the opposite of déjà vu

which is quite different.
