bunsenlabs.org (= the placeholder page) doesn't even have a favicon (and never had) set! Are you using firefox? That browser does funny things with its cache. Your browser is recalling things from the time that bunsenlabs.org was a redirect to the Crunchbang forums...

Also, I'm melting.

I'm using Chrome. I did try a full, cache clearing page refresh, but the #! favicon persists. I did think it was probably a leftover from the redirect, though.

Open the inspector (or the Chrome equivalent) and select the network/request profiling tab. It should tell you where it gets the the favicon file from. Definitely not from our server

I have read all those 'surveys', comparisons, compilations with elatives in their headlines, and I'm tired of them. Most of the open source projects are half-assed in terms of features (no blaming), full of usability issues or simply dead. Cue kbibtex. I'm now asking for opinions from people who are actually using these (and other) programs.

Been there, done that ... and I can definitely relate to your frustration

BTW, there is very very nice and usable program called BibDesk, but for MacOS only. As you seem to be a seasoned programmer (are you?), maybe you could port this to Linux? But beware, it might be too much work to do. ]:D

OTOH, I'm too pi**ed about the fact that there is no almost-professional-quality-grade bibtex references program for Linux.

It's written completely in Objective-C. Unless GNUStep already implements all the classes needed (very unlikely) it'd amount to a full rewrite. The program itself is huge, so I agree: too much work.

One last good one for today.

Microsoft’s new Services Terms that went in effect on the 1st of August state the technology giant can prevent you from playing counterfeit games or use unauthorized hardware. The terms are valid for everyone using Microsoft services such as Office 365, Outlook.com, Xbox Live, Skype, OneDrive, Bing and MSN. Also software using a Microsoft account is covered by the terms meaning the terms also affect most Windows 10 users. Although Microsoft’s latest OS can be used without a Microsoft account the majority of users will nevertheless use it with an account from the Redmond company.

Source.

Let me affix my monocle and get my wine and tinfoil hat; software is drama!

Backed-up and upgraded to Debian Stretch for two packages that I wanted but didn't need. Got greedy, upgraded to sid and somehow managed to balls it all up. Thankfully there was the backup. Learned how to backport packages. Backported the two packages and now I have a lovely stable Debian Jessie plus the packages I wanted to upgrade for.

Broke my laptop power cord, earlier. No more laptop.

At least until I order one and it arrives, I suppose...

@ jdonaghy - better to break the cord than the laptop.

From the story, "The rules are apparently motivated by a desire to ensure that devices operated within the US comply to FCC regulations on radio frequency spectrum management and power output".
I'd say that's more accurately described as the excuse.

I'll fix that for them. "The rules are actually motivated by a desire to ensure that devices operated within the US (and elsewhere) can be easily back doored by the NSA and other nefarious characters".

The level of dishonesty coming out of all levels of government these days is truly staggering.

CSCoder4ever · 2015-08-07 23:09:35

Yep, that sounds about right, if it really was radio related, then why make it a PITA for those to put something better on their device?

twoion · 2015-08-08 13:16:35

I really recommend to try the latest Firefox Nightly builds. They are lightning fast when compared to the current release, ESR and beta versions. You get to use GTK3 and Electrolysis (multi-process Firefox).

Stupid decisions affecting Debian Jessie Part n+1: not to include lxc-net. Why are you making my life more difficult? I'll just use Ubuntu as my next lxc host OS.

pingu · 2015-08-09 15:17:03

@twoion, I got curious and decided to search it. is there a package named lxc-net? all I've found is reference to lxc, either in debian, or ubuntu. http://pkgs.org/search/?query=lxc&type=smart
edit: sorry for being nosy.

It's just a script which automates the process of setting up bridged networking for LXC containers when creating them. Some distros distribute it, others don't. Debian doesn't, Ubuntu does. A slight inconvenience.

I was checking out wpa_cli (I usually just have my configuration file eddited manually, and never bothered to see what's the cli interface like), and decided to see what the ping would do (the description was a little weird `ping = pings wpa_supplicant`), and got this:

like `apt-get moo`

First comes love, then comes breakage,
Then comes Jessie with ordering cycle hemorrhage.
