Doubtful. Doom was fully software-rendered. Quake, maybe?
Yes, as I understand it, this sort of problem is what “Name Constraints”[0] were designed to solve. (Well, really, they were intended to be used with corporate internal CAs[1], but there's no reason they wouldn't work…
I imagine, too, that as better encoders become available, we'll be able to losslessly recompress existing JXLs, much as mozjpeg's jpegtran can losslessly recompress existing JPEGs.
Right. Although the article demonstrates the changes by making requests of a public web server, I would imagine this change has been primarily motivated by a desire to reduce overhead and latency on internal…
Once upon a time, AliExpress had a really bad reputation for missing packages. I imagine they ramped up the notifications to help repair their reputation.
Right. The “correct” way for a service to handle this is to disable password logins for any account that has enrolled a passkey. A few services do this, but boy howdy is it ever unfriendly to users (or at best,…
I think it's extremely likely that all these major websites are built specifically to work with Google Chrome, and I would call that “broken”, yes.

> so I gave that all to Claude Damn. I have really enjoyed reading Doug Brown's past reverse-engineering and repair work (e.g., Chumby resuscitation). Shame to see another one fall to brain offloading.
Parent is thinking iOS/iPadOS, not macOS. Older devices that are not capable of running iOS 26 are still receiving security updates for iOS 18, but any device supported by iOS 26 is not. It's a real hard push by Apple…
Well, you can do 3.5 Mbps ADSL over wet string[0], which is about 5 channels of uncompressed 16-bit PCM at 44.1 KHz. [0]: https://www.revk.uk/2017/12/its-official-adsl-works-over-wet...
“Terrible inefficient workflows”, like having to prompt Claude to change one or two words in a file rather than just manually editing it, because it gets confused when the file changes out from under it and will later…
Are very many of them time travellers?
For those who haven't made the connection, Cockos, the company who make REAPER, is run by Justin Frankel, previously the founder of Nullsoft, the company who made Winamp. REAPER very much carries the Winamp torch of…
My understanding is that the Qt 6 build system is vastly easier to work with. Also, Audacity is not the first major FOSS project to successfully migrate from wxWidgets to Qt: Dolphin, the GameCube/Wii emulator, made a…

Thank you, that forum post carries all the explanation I was looking for.
Ah, interesting. Searching the dataset for my local area, this seems to include some restaurants, but omits hotels entirely. That's skewing the numbers downward tremendously.
I think the parent was referring to using awk/sed to do the equivalent of: find ... | tr '\n' '\0' | xargs -0 ... I.e., a blind replacement without the tool having any particular semantic understanding of what it's…
Yeah, the default [homes] share is really not necessary on a home network where you really just want a common share. On my home storage server, I just have a “files” user, and a corresponding, anonymously…
Some other things I find useful on NASes: Install avahi-daemon. Samba will automatically register with it to advertise SMB/CIFS to macOS and Linux clients over DNS-SD. Install wsdd2 so that your server will be…
As I'm sure you know but some others might not, the random brands with unpronounceable names (as opposed to no specific names at all) are also a problem that Amazon has created:…
Oh, interesting – I'd missed that Apple had shipped any laptops with Core Solo/Core Duo processors, or any with dGPUs. Fascinating.
The CPUs were powerful enough, sure. The GPUs (Intel GMA950) absolutely weren't. Even on Windows with better drivers, Half-Life 2 is a slideshow on that class of hardware.
In 2004, sure, but Valve didn't (publicly) ship Mac OS X software before 2010.
