> Be easier to use for someone with long fingernails (hello Nosferatu)

Long nails are somewhat common as an aesthetic/cosmetic choice usually for women (ime). No need to make a joke around accessible design.


Aren't long nails difficult for anything that requires finger dexterity, like in touch screen phones?

Also the parent comment reminded me of this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VjpcLplkMUs


A phone that works with long nails is also likely to be far more accessible to people with all sorts of hand mobility or motor control problems.

I have one keyboard worn to the point the (now blank) keys have nail shaped holes in them in just the right shape and angle.

One could extrude keys to be softer so that they errode faster and have the symbol all the way though.


I feel no need not to make a joke around it.

Even with short nails, keys that are too shallow or without contour be rather jarring to use.

it writes to the file with elevated priviledges and doesn't write it back to the terminal, effectively a 'sudo sh -c '{cmd} > {file}''.

sudo tee is a common way to work around priviledge restrictions in shell pipes (you can't easily 'sudo' a pipe), if /secure was 0600 and owned by root:

"sudo echo "test" > /secure" or "sudo printf '' > /secure", would not work because your user's shell process can't write to /secure. However, "echo 'test' | sudo tee /secure" works because the elevated 'sudo tee' can write to the file.


Cool, thanks!

A notable mention should also be Versity GW, https://github.com/versity/versitygw/

+1 switched to versity for homelab, been simple and stable as a rock. Point at a directory per bucket and done.

Also discussions few months ago here when healthcheks.io switched to it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47806348


I use that aswell since it can be used and expose a posix filesystem. This is helpful when we want to add s3 to existing storage like a nas. (Well we had some problems with it in the past tough)

Sadly most new projects do not offer posix anymore.


I've been using it for local development for a while now. My goal was to replace MinIO, which I could run and configure with a single Docker command. VersityGW works just as well for that.

This is what I switched to as well, works nicely. Can have just a folder as a backend as well, which makes things pretty simple.

Use it for my homelab too, super nice and stable. Support also delivering static website/asset.

I'm quite pleased with it. It's also nice that it translates directly to the file system .

> It's also nice that it translates directly to the file system.

On the other hand, this means that it's bound by filesystem naming rules - e.g. you can't have an object named "abc/", or a pair of objects named "a" and "a/b".


I've had good experiences with Versity GW too and it's a shame it's not more well known.

That seems a bit overzealous, most consoles[0] run on AMD chips today.

Both PS 5 and Xbox are based on AMD APUs and both serve the AAA market quite well. GTA 6, Assassin's Creed and CoD are probably good enough indicators that the performance is enough, even if there is always room for more (as PC ports show). The PC market will also probably be fine even if stagnation in perfomance gains has been creeping in for a few years now.

[0]: except Nintendo which relies on NVIDIA although their APU there focuses more on efficiency than top performance.


She got nominated by Biden in Biden's last term in March of 2021 and left in 2025 two weeks after Trump assumed office.

She did not get appointed under Trump nor did substantial work done under his administration.

Edit: I do not necessarily disagree with your comment on the partisan aspects of this issue. This is only meant to respond to the first paragraph.


Coaster brakes are ime one of the best brakes for beginners/intermediates because they can be a reliable backup in addition to rim/disc brakes.

Had my rim brakes at least once lose a lot of efficacy during a large downpour and coaster brakes make a great backup for extra breaking power. They sure do like to lockup your rear wheel but that is still better than the alternative of only having very weak rear/front breaks.


This might have to be put into the context that they do in fact move the conflict over resources to economic wars. They also actively engage in wars over ressources when they think they can win outside of MAD, see U. S. vs Iran.

Economic warfare also does in fact kill people. Denying a population, e. g., Cuba, the ability to access medicine/food kills humans just as well as a bullet in the long term.

There are various other ways this causes suffering. Different forms of warfare are still warfare, even if you don't to hold a gun for all of them.

Being "rich" also requires someone else to be "poor".


Perfect is the enemy of good.

Market democracy is not perfect but it solves 90% of the problems we'd have otherwise.

Deny them jobs, investment that could create jobs and paths to prosperity.

Give them drugs.

Shocked Pikachu when they don't like you.

Edit: Revised language to be more broadly applicable.


For android, the answer is yes (without rooting being required).


> without rooting being required

If you want to use the standard port, that's only true as of very recently, though, see https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/218578943#comment17


Also on iOS, though I've only done this over Wi-Fi, and have no idea whether telcos expose open ports to the (IPv6) Internet.


Lenovo also takes orders without Windows. Only for "configurable" skews through the website though.
