This is incredibly normal language and quite close to how I would write this quote, so what makes you think this is LLM text?

MinGW and MinGW-64/MSYS2 are just as inscrutable, fragile and new-user-hostile. The fact that you have to choose between MinGW (which has a 64 bit version) or MinGW64 (completely s…

FWIW I think I was experiencing the same hangs as you, and they seem to have resolved on their own now. Worth checking again just in case

I’m not sure it’s quite fair to call this hypocrisy. Lumo was introduced separately after the Proton Unlimited subscription, and it was never claimed to be included in Unlimited (t…

Funny, I disagree. I think copilot truly sucks compared to the other options. But you can uninstall copilot, so I don’t see why it bothers people at all.

> Now if only they would listen to the feedback about windows 11 and their forced copilot we might be onto something. You can just uninstall Copilot? It’s nowhere on my Surface Lap…

This rings so completely true to me. Every time I notice a reproducible bug and try to report it to Apple I'm stunned by how difficult they make the process. Even reporting somethi…

Lots of sites that return a ton of images, like an of the image search sites (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGO, loads of porn sites etc.)

Seems like something LLMs should be useful for, if not now then soon enough

+1, works well with Edgeium + uBlock.

It's so they can do exactly this sort of thing. Firefox has their won chrome wrapper on the engine, you can sign in with their sync account and it has inbuilt Pocket, tracking prot…

First hit for googling "Spectre Javascript POC": https://github.com/ascendr/spectre-chrome

Amazon.com? Ebay? Hard to think of any major development at either in recent years

Sort of like the internet :)

Improved caching TFS puts a lot of effort into caching the disk to speed up disk accesses. It uses machine learning to learn patterns and predict future uses to reduce the number o…
