Heh, when it comes to audio software, you could throw a lot more in the mix, e.g. Logic Pro, Native Instruments (at least in the past - shame what happened to them) and - arguably …

How is having to manually reconnect each time when switching between, say, an IPhone and a Windows laptop every time fine or even remotely seamless? I do not have to that even with…

The most impressive part of Control's RT (on PC at least) was that it very much applied to (most) dynamic objects - and it features a TON of dynamic destruction. The "office buildi…

I'm not sure what argument you are trying to make with picking out a single command and vaguely asserting doubt. It's about having a high degree of systematization and standardizat…

I certainly won't argue that pwsh is even close to perfect, but...obtuse is just about the most unfitting description of powershell. It offers a level of structure and consistency …

The new Windows 11 22H2 task manager? Works just fine here (1920x1200 125%, 4K 150%, 1080p 100%).

Nah, that's not a "sacrifice", but the only sane way. In the ideal case, clearly document the constructor with a warning that it's not ISO conformant and offer a ISO conformant alt…

In the context of this thread that's a non-issue. Good TVs have been in the ~5ms@120Hz/<10ms@60Hz world for some time now. If you're in the market for a 4K-or-higher display, you w…
