Not sure if you are referring to the roaches or a person.

Pentium II and 160MB RAM are plentiful, and it is no surprise that NetBSD is a breeze to use on it.

I got NetBSD running on a ThinkPad 760XD (Pentium MMX, 32MB RAM) which I revived around last summer, and it works just fine. Though running emacs on it is not a smooth experience with my configuration loaded, but it runs well vanilla. With enough tweaking, it can be a capable writing machine, especially with its flip-up keyboard.

The blog post is really good and insightful. I have never considered connecting aforementioned machine to the internet, but I think I might do it after reading this post just to try out Dillo.

Thanks for the clarification.

Racist stereotypes aside, I have filtered out most US news from my feeds, so I was not aware of who this Robert character is.

What?

Earlier today, I encountered a website[0] that does exactly this.

I am not refuting or opposing your statement. I understood your point very well, but the brevity of your statement led to more than one interpretation.

I am merely pointing out whichever way one interprets your statement, it serves as a good warning about keeping one’s backups tested.

A backup that is untested is a backup that does not exist?

A backup that is untested does not exist?

There exists no backup that is untested?

Any interpretation of your statement seems cautionary to me. :-)

How do you view diffs and merges when you say you don’t use git GUIs? External tool or terminal/command line?

Terminal.

I use Jetbrains IDEs and most of my life has been IDE based git interaction. And I honestly love it, easy access to see my diffs, the most common commit, push and stage(or shelve as Jetbrains does it, which is better than visual studio). Hassle free and available beats writing anything to me.

Perhaps, it is a mix of learned behaviour and cognitive fixation, as I started out my development journey predominantly using a terminal, that I cannot fathom Git GUI being hassle free.

Nice to read a different perspective on such a fundamental thing that I take for granted while working. Thank you for sharing it.

It is subjective, I like the old eBay logo more, but dislike the old Airbnb one.

I always found Git GUIs, especially the ones built into IDEs, to be more confusing and clunkier than working with Git on a terminal. It often feels like unlearning what one knows about Git, and relearning it the way that specific GUI demands.

Heck, I am going through the aforementioned feeling as I force myself to use Magit on Emacs. It just does not feel intuitive. But I will not give up until I have made an honest and full attempt.

The only sensible Git GUI I ever used is Sublime Merge[0], after a coworker praised it immensely. Even that is reserved for the rarest of the rare times when the changes in the workspace gets unwieldy and unruly. For every other instance: Git CLI on a terminal.

E: typo, and link to mentioned GUI.

Interesting. I still get the original response.

Voyager is indeed a really good app for Lemmy. It is based on Apollo app which was the best, and IMO, the only sensible way to browse Reddit on iOS.

I am glad @aeharding@vger.social had a working version ready merely days after the new TOS came into effect.

I have been using it since it was called Wefwef (which I still feel was a better name, more playful), and I liked it so much that I use it on my Android phone as well as my iOS daily driver.

It was on Lemmy World’s All[0] less than 10 days ago.

Yes, despite our long exchanges we do agree on the core issues. I appreciate your acknowledgement. Wishing you and yours well too.
