I got a virtual pinball machine which gives me all of the fun of owning a pinball machine with almost none of the maintenance. My machine is the size of a normal wide body pinball cabinet and works like a normal machine does as far as tilt/bumping, flippers, coin door, etc go. If you have the time and passion for keeping up a regular pinball I would go that route. If you want something a bit more easy to maintain but just as fun to play I would look for a virtual pinball setup.


There are options where you can buy a full pinball cabinet [0] that is 100% virtual. There are fairly large communities around virtual pinball using future pinball [1] and virtual pinball [2] as the emulators. The community has gone very far in adding details into the tables as well as making VR tables as well.

I'm guessing something like this would work

# Redirect port 8080 to local port 22

iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 8080 -j REDIRECT --to-port 22


I like the fact there are multiple splash tags even though "I use Arch BTW" is a great one.


For anyone else looking for the whole list, here it is:

Totally missing "`date '+%Y'`: the year of the linux desktop"


"Now with Rust" hits hard.


I like the fact this is number one, on hn right now.


personally I'm a fan of "12345 is a bad password!" and "pls fix"

> Why would you expect that if you stop working they won't stop paying you? They aren't going to rely on someones self-written review to notice you haven't been working.

Chances are your manager could fill this out for you most of the time as they should have a good grasp of what you have been doing in your day to day.

Most of the time I can generate a list of what I have worked on via commit messages or ticket names to get a high level idea of what I have been doing. I still feel like my manager may have a better idea of what impact my changes have had then I do in some cases.


Podcast Addict [0] has that feature but only runs on Android devices. I use that as well as speeding up podcasts to 2x speed which makes things better for me.

> In turn Thunderbird will ensure the app is developed further. As a first step Thunderbird hired the current K-9 Mail maintainer, cketti (coincidentally, also the author of this blog post ). Hopefully, more will follow soon.

I mean they are putting resources toward it by hiring the main dev which is a good start.


The highlight was about Mozilla the org not being involved. The Thunderbird org is definitely putting resources into this, not Mozilla.


I thought Mozilla still owned and thus funded Thunderbird. Someone must be ensuring that employees who work for the Thunderbird project are being payed even if it is a mostly community ran project.

The donation page still takes me to a Mozilla branded donation page which makes me think they are putting some resources into the project even if it isn't as fully funded as most would like.


The donations they receive via that page go directly to Thunderbird is my understanding. There was some chatter a few years back where I guess Thunderbird had some restructuring done so they could have better funding, I forget the specifics I remember discussing it here on HN though.

If only Bitbucket Cloud would play catchup now. So many times I read about a bitbucket feature to only find out it is server only and we can't use it.


I believe Bitbucket Cloud and Bitbucket Server/Datacenter (nee Stash) are still two completely separate codebases that just happen to share a name.


And, probably for worse, Atlassian is ending support for server in favour of their worse cloud version.

There's still data center version but it's priced expensive to discourage you.


Shouldn't that be 1/2 of a green pepper and 1/4 cup blue cheese?


Hmm, I'd think so too. Looks like the source dataset [1] has it wrong :(

This is how it shows up (CSV format):

2230984,Buffalo Chicken Pizza!,"[""1 (9 3/4 ounce) canswanson premium white chunk chicken breast in water, drained"", ""2 tablespoons butter, melted"", ""1 (10 ounce) packageprepared thin pizza crust (12-inch)"", ""12 of a green pepper, thinly sliced"", ""14 cup crumbled blue cheese""]","[""Heat the oven to 425F Stir the chicken, hot sauce and butter in a medium bowl."", ""Spread the chicken mixture on the pizza crust to within 1/2-inch of the edge."", ""Top with the pepper and cheese."", ""Bake for 10 minutes or until the chicken mixture is hot and bubbling.""]",www.food.com/recipe/buffalo-chicken-pizza-394731,Recipes1M,"[""chicken"", ""butter"", ""crust"", ""green pepper"", ""blue cheese""]"

I'll see if I can open a PR with the fix.

I see in the original posts github link that they have a scrubbed list as well[1]. I am not sure when that was added but it explains the 12 1/2 thing exactly.
