I've always created a new Apple ID with my work email for every place I've been that's issued an iPhone. No chance in hell I'm signing on to a corporate managed device with my pers…

A fairly bad sunburn was the reality check I needed to start scheduling annual screenings. 30 minutes or so a year for peace of mind.

I was in the scene when the pandora's battery was discovered and to say it was huge was a understatement. After years of playing cat and mouse with Sony over exploits, not only was…

That's not true. If you're new there's a special enrollment period right after you start.

I feel like it's a bit ironic that the blog post chastises Codeberg for taking a stance and then does the same with JS.

If you listen to non-western music the streaming library shrinks a lot.

Arguably it hurt them with the PSP as well by trying to get everyone to buy UMDs for their movies and store music on memory sticks.

Some implementations, like GoToSocial, do support importing posts from another instance.

No these aren’t optical sensors like those, they’re full blown cameras. Cobb County at least on their website says they use camera sensors as well as buried induction loops.

I see them everywhere in Metro Atlanta. You can tell because there’s what looks like a little camera above each direction facing traffic light.

They’re extremely common in the U.S. now.

This was the reason they built such an extensive application compatibility shim system into Windows 95. If a poorly coded application breaks on an OS upgrade, the user is going to …

Good thing Sweden isn’t selling jets to Cambodia then.

As a fellow Hokie I'm just happy they aren't calling us Virginia Tech University.

Bangkok changed the plans of its two most recent transit lines (Yellow and Pink) from standard rail to monorail for the cost savings - since they're completely elevated. I guess th…

I believe King Rama IX was not technically a U.S. citizen because his parents were considered foreign diplomats. In any case he never tried to claim citizenship and was only ever c…

I’ve been watching ReactOS development for years and and progress is slow but steady. I’m excited for the point where it will be fully usable as a drop in replacement for old Windo…

It’s all by design. Car dependent suburbs with no transit access make it easier to keep “undesirables” out of your neck of the woods. Robert Moses infamously made great use of infr…

Are there any advantages to BasiliskII/SheepShaver these days? Seems like QEMU has caught up on the Macintosh emulation side for both 68k and PPC. The only hole is early Macs which…

"If you're building a skyscraper out of reinforced concrete, the only way for it to be stable is to design it in the shape of a pyramid." Except the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur…

Pretty sure it was tongue in cheek.

I hope that’s the case. It’s certainly a lot less chilling than intentional censorship.

Facebook explicitly told them that Linux was remaining on their cybersecurity filter.

Only reason I'd use it over QEMU/KVM is that it has 3D acceleration for Windows guests.

Same. Had an Xbox One last generation and I'm not fully gaming on the Steam Deck. The "good enough" performance at the huge benefit of open platform and portability is just what I …
