How else could it possibly be done?
Like a red headed stepchild.
Goodwill liquidation is what I’ve been calling it. I think we might be coloring it as we’d like it to be, though. Only rarely does it end in brand death, more often they just get a bad reputation then keep going,…
Thanks for something concrete. In the open and save file dialogs, the location is a dropdown containing, amongst other things, recent locations, which would list where the file ended up. I think the number of recents is…
I’d like to propose a rule that all the Finder bashers in this thread accompany their complaint with at least one concrete example. I’m no Apple fanboy, but blind hate is just as bad as blind love, and so far 100% of…
Seems to me that in the short term everybody screams “DO NOT OPTIMIZE THAT CODE”, in the medium term everybody shrugs “buy a new computer”, and in the long term everybody gradually migrates to the solutions that…
Seems like “not okay” would be the cleanest antonym. I can’t see anything that could go wrong with using it. > Meeting at 4 pm today? > NO
Thank you. Cheaper → more licenses and also more post-license profit, yes, agreed, hence my (admittedly oblique) wellness comment, but this is also true of direct to consumer prices, and my question is specifically…
The CPU is 10-15% faster, that’s incremental in use even if it’s technically interesting. Lots of apps and websites only run smoothly on newer GPUs, too. You can play the “they’re dumb and I just won’t use them” game,…
Why do you assume that? I’m genuinely asking. I’m aware of big companies generally paying lower rates for things, but I believe that’s usually driven by the increased leverage a big buyer has, while Asus has absolutely…
I agree with all of this. I’d add that it’s useful for sorting and searching. Things like keyword matching, from address, and from domain aren’t as consistent as you’d hope, but companies do need to actually email the…
This is a huge selling point. Private email relays often get blocked, the only lasting solution is to put them on the same domain as, and in the same format as, a significant number of non-private email addresses. As…
monkeytype.com is the gold standard here. Typing tests are a dime a dozen because you can make a bad one in 15 minutes, but Monkeytype seems to actually be made with care. Never tried typ.ing before but it seems better…
If you can’t tell how this is a non sequitur then it’s very likely you, too, confuse articulate and confident with useful and accurate.
Yes but only one of them makes most people who hear it think you don’t know the expression you’re trying to use. There’s no objective reason it has to be this way, but it is, and at least personally I appreciate being…
Cosmetic filtering and script injection both work fine, they’re just off by default. Everybody works around rule count limits by making the one app register itself as like six different “Safari extensions”, it’s just…
Decentraleyes has worse issues than that, it’s been mostly abandoned for 7 years and never covered much [1]. LocalCDN is better, but coverage is still insufficient, it still has no chance of actually preventing a CDN…
Not sure what you intend by this, but yes, that’s their goal. The same people put on a “Trump was robbed” act for the Trump voters and a “Trump is robbing you” act for the Democrats, and with both they accomplish their…
Think about users who don’t maximize the window, for whom centering to the screen, not viewport, would just be broken. It’s right to center to the viewport, and right that you’re able to turn that into centering to the…
Anybody know how to get Safari to “sanitize” on shutdown (delete cookies, cache, etc), except for whitelisted domains? After lots of fiddling I’ve realized this is probably the best privacy/convenience compromise for…
Victim blaming is a form of self soothing. If you can get yourself to believe they deserved it, then you avoid feeling that the world is dangerous and you might get hurt too.
Not only. Others include LibreWolf, Waterfox, Zen, Tor, I’m sure others.
Speculation is good for finding more questions to ask, not disregarding evidence. That LLMs harm your odds with some hiring managers is evidenced. That LLMs help get you through prior screenings at big companies is…
Anthropic is massively bigger than a studio, Zig is massively smaller than Unity, and it wasn’t a quiet switch, it was a huge publicity event. It’s more like the #1 movie of the year being “The Profound Joy of Finally…
Thank you for taking this stance. It is the mature, intellectual, and virtuous one, and with it you are on civilization’s side. The US is currently in a very bad place politically. It’s visible not just in politicians,…
