This isn’t an airport, you don’t need to announce your departure.


Just send me a message when you've landed.

(Enjoyed your phrasing here.)


I'm enjoying the nostalgia on HN this week!


There's a name from the past... according to the Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rusty_n_Edie%27s_BBS, they _only_ had 124 dial-in lines.


I recall running Opus (or maybe the predecessor whose name escapes me) under DESQview on my lousy XT clone. I don’t recall it being crashy but it certainly didn’t have enough horsepower to handle the BBS software and an interactive DOS window.

I couldn’t afford a second machine in those days and having to sacrifice my one and only PC for the full-time BBS wasn’t fun :)


I dunno, Google Reader was actually pretty good. I am also a NetNewsWire user…


And when Google decided to shut down Reader, you immediately couldn’t use it.


I use both Newsblur & NetNewsWire, and they both solve different problems that neither one could for me.


I did the same- replaced an Ender with an A1. Unfortunately, I’ve had it 10 days and have yet to be able to print anything. Won’t calibrate and cannot update firmware. Seems like a commonly reported issue but tech support is still bumbling around with no useful suggestions. I foresee it going back.


It always shocked me that isn’t the way for all. When I was on FB, I only friended people that I “knew” in real-life. I guess that’s why I only had a handful of friends :)


There are other usable browsers… haven’t had Chrome on my machines in literally years.


But you have likely have Chromium based browsers. It takes a lot of work to maintain those if they keep on the old manifest versions.


Tres commas?


Nice reference, I assume it's about the show Sillicon Valley? Was it a branded bottle of Tequila? Actually looks like some company is now actually selling it


Tres Comas was the tequila company owned by Russ Hanneman in the show. For those who have not watched Silicon Valley, Russ Hanneman was based off Mark Cuban.


I want to be a Sublime Text user. I want to give them my money. I want the performance of a native macOS app, but…

I’m a full-time Go developer. Last time I tried Sublime Text, I couldn’t get close to what I have in vscode with an all-in-one Go extension to handle `gopls` for function lookups/refactoring/etc and `golangci-lint` for linting, for example. I am even willing to live without integrated debugging if everything else is near perfect. Sublime gets so close with several extensions, but it didn’t feel coherent. Before I try again, is it worth the effort or is Go support still spread across several disparate extensions from different developers?


Last time I tried Sublime to code in Go I had success with LSP extension and gopls, actually.
