    That is how window resizing on iOS 27 apps streamed to macOS 27 works right now in the first beta, I reckon it won't change.

    Until recently TDC had a very slow FCDO satellite link that required their website to be quite basic in order to actually be viewable on computers on the island. They now have a fa…

    Probably not that many. You underestimate how expensive either of those things are. We have obligations to provide services like this to the people living in our overseas territori…

    The ferries would be brief enough though. Probably less than 100 out of the total 10,000 miles.

    It’s a company containing such remarkable talent that I’m sure they would not have run into significant issues raising capital on international markets. It’s not like VCs are only …

    Parallels and VMware still do implement their own graphics virtualisation (among other things) for Windows and Linux guests on Apple silicon, and in my experience Parallels still w…

    $50bn for a harness makes no sense, what am I missing?

    Most would continue to buy cases which would only make these phones even thicker

    Is it an Intel MacBook? I think those sucked for obvious reasons outside Apple’s control (Intel getting stuck at 14nm for ages) which they’ve already fixed (by abandoning Intel). T…

    If you filled the negative space on an iPhone 17 Pro/Max it would be a horrendously unwieldy phone. People who say this stuff seriously underestimate the disastrous effect on ergon…

    Your M2 MacBook Pro really struggles? That is genuinely crazy, given that I use one as a daily driver and it feels just as fast as the day I bought it. I think the Apple Silicon tr…

    I’m sorry but that README.md is full of extremely obnoxious AI prose for what is essentially saying “buy an old Pixel and install Claude Code on it”

    Safari’s reader mode is good for this. All you have to do is long press the icon on the left edge of the address bar.

    The technologies listed aside from the Enigma were largely actually British (I say largely because Canadians were deeply involved in some cases)

    LTT are fine. I would strongly consider their products if they had any warehousing in Europe to make shipping here cheaper.

    Europe simply does not have enough known oil reserves to put a dent in current prices even if it exploited them all. There may still be good arguments to do so anyway, such as it b…

    That’s actually pretty cool, I’m surprised there’s skateboarders that still use VX1000s or whatever instead of moving on to GoPros etc
