Friendly fire isn't friendly, but critical thinking is critical.
I wouldn't have been bothered by this at all (including the splash), if Windows hadn't reassigned Edge as my default PDF handler. Delving into the dark guts of the default programs settings, and finding a way to…
Same here. I have a work GitHub account, and a personal GitHub account, and am signed into each in a different container. Saves constant logging out and in, or using different browsers for each.
Progressive web app. They're kind of like JavaScript-driven websites that think they're native apps. They tend to be characterised by their use of modern web standards to do some useful things, like being available…
Even with Prime, the couriers Amazon uses to service some areas take long enough to deliver that most other online retailers are preferable.
I give it less than a hundred orbits until someone takes a rocket over and nicks it.
It's not exactly a general solution fit for all situations and persons and purposes, but there's always TypeScript.
This is probably a reaction to the news that Facebook is now officially tracking non-users to create shadow profiles and serve adverts to them off Facebook itself. I think it's the serve-adverts-off-Facebook-itself part…
It'll be about the same level as respect for ticket scalping, and with about as much value added.
I seem to remember that they were using it to punish out-of-date browsers. But since I'm getting it with up-to-date Chrome, it doesn't seem to be very well targeted.
Rather than censoring it on the fly, the device could mutter 'he's lying, he's lying, it's not true' into the child's ear in a respectable, commanding voice. 'Your mummy will be so angry if you think he's right.' Since…
Please don't tell it to look for cockroaches again.
I've added a firewall rule that blocks outbound requests to Bing. That's pretty well flummoxed it. It's a far cry from an actual setting, though - which would be the obvious solution and unquestionably ought to be…
I got halfway through reading that, well enough absorbed, and then an invitation to subscribe popped up in the middle of my field of view and nuked my attention. When are those going to stop being popular?
When interacting with a (well-designed and indexed) database, stick as much filtering and sorting as you can in the database query, rather than using a less specific database query and then crunching the result about…
Easy. I wanted to communicate, so I decided to let that information out.
So you have nothing to hide except for things that could put you at risk if publicly disclosed. I think that disclosing any information could put a person at risk in some way or another. So I'll hide everything until I…
Just popped down. Complete gridlock all the way from Trafalgar Square through Parliament Square and beyond. The air is saturated by beeping taxi horns, and it's hot as hell.
Reads like an origin story for Iain Banks' 'Culture' novels.
Nothing too odd, I think: I get to feel that little bit more insulated against the wacky stuff that malicious JS can do, and if I break a site I want to see, I can make an exception for it.
Out of curiosity, what simpler term would you instead use for 'acetylcholinesterase inhibitor'?
The best experience I've had so far was with the Proton Pulse Rift demo, probably because the head tracking is the only means of movement or interaction. If you're finding cockpit-based games easier to process than…
I am so glad he had the chance to see how much he and his work are appreciated, and by so many people. RIP.
He's ruined your hard-earned reputation as a slick, suave James Bond-type operator.
The Elder Scrolls are ancient texts of prophecy in the TES universe. They foretell various major events in the game history (many of which are the player's doing, of course). So they are important in an overarching plot…
