    (not to be demeaning, but) Why? Halo 2 is playable, with first party support, via The Master Chief Collection today. They've even kept the button combinations (BXR, RRX, etc)

    Why? I haven't used AppD in ~7 years, but I remember it being one of the most pleasurable APMs (but also ridiculously expensive) It seems to me the marriage between APM and logging…

    One of the (or maybe both) Nirvana ones are pretty good. He goes into how Cobain uses upper extensions/suspensions to give a melancholic feel. I think one of the Pearl Jam ones he …

    They fixed the esc key on the 2019 models. I like the key travel of my (personal) 2015 MBP compared to the 2019 MBP I have for work. I put a keyboard cover on the 2019 and it feels…

    Another 2015MBP stalwart here. I wasn't planning on upgrading to an ARM Mac. I use BootCamp (daily lately, since we're in lockdown and it's snowing) for gaming on Windows with an e…

    Probably something like[1]: Because of the release of GNOME $next, and the lack of interest in maintainership of GNOME $prev, the gnome-core product is being closed. If you feel yo…

    Android Studio is better in this regard, there's an SDK manager so I don't need to have watchOS/tvOS installed when my apps don't target it

    Homebrew (and CocoaPods, perhaps famously) uses github as a CDN for their package listings, syncing the git repos likely takes the most time here

    Disclaimer: I haven't read the article. My understanding is sometimes companies fudge the numbers though. If a $40 order has a $5 discount, they might consider $40 as revenue and p…

    Also: Consider another shortcut for mute/unmute (cmd + d or ctrl + d is the bookmark shortcut in like every browser... maybe this is intentional?)

    iOS optimizes here too, by limiting how much CPU/IO background apps can use. It's frustrating to use Chromecast (for example) on iOS since it's always disconnecting from the receiv…
