If I understand correctly, something like DeltaDB has always been part of the plan. Zed is a moonshot to reimagine collaborative development from the ground up. The editor, develop…

It was basically forked into RubyMotion, which is closed source but actively developed.

That date feels a little bit late. The PS/2 devices that superseded the bus mouse started appearing around 1987. There were certainly still bus mice around in 1995, but they were t…

None of those are modern. There's been A LOT of new ideas in board game design in the last eighty years.

Well, a lot of the early examples of this style aren't very good. ;-)

Dominion has a fair amount of depth, but it seems common for individual player groups to get hung up on a particular play style and decide that they've found the ultimate strategy.…

Please accept my apologies. Stable LOVE ships a pretty old version of LuaJIT; I didn't realize it'd been resolved upstream.

I dunno about the Kindle 7 specifically, but replacing the battery in many models is pretty easy.

> The big problem is that Amazon no longer allows you to download books from their site to your desktop I've bought a number of books on Kindle that were explicitly marked as being…

I dunno if this is what you were seeing, but LuaJIT has some serious performance issues on ARM. https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=94760 It's unfortunate as Love2D is genera…

People talk about the stuff they use, and there are _a lot_ of fantasy consoles. https://github.com/paladin-t/fantasy

Tables are kinda-sorta hashes that can hold anything, not unlike JavaScript objects. The array use case is just a table with automatically assigned numeric keys.

Or Headscale, which has the blessing of Tailscale and contributions from some of their employees. https://github.com/juanfont/headscale

One of the DRM circumvention methods for the Xbox 360 involved precision drilling a specific depth into one of the chips on the board. Microsoft was very aware of the nature of phy…

Xbox One homebrew has effectively always been supported. Anyone can register a development account and boot the system into dev mode. IIRC in a talk about console security, a Micro…

It's closer to the "sealed system volume" model that macOS uses. The core OS filesystem isn't (normally) writable, although you can finagle it to add drivers and such.

> Alternatively, you become "they" by forking the project. This doesn't make sense for the vast majority of people. Linux desktop doesn't have the vast majority of the niceties tha…

It's less stress on a frequently used port. I've got an early M1 MacBook Air where the USB-C port I always used for charging is starting to get flaky, presumably because it's been …

Those old 2011 machines aren't really getting macOS security updates anymore, and compatible apps are dropping; I wouldn't recommend using anything but Linux on them. And even with…

Is this the sort of thing that Flatpak would be useful for? Or are there sandbox-related complications when using it to package a compiler?

Any official source? YouTubers have been saying that Intel is shuttering Arc at every minor setback for years.

Friendly reminder that GOG ignored and downplayed the GOG Galaxy 0-day privilege escalation bug CVE-2020-24574 [1] for literal years. They tried to brush off the security researche…

Not to mention one of the "big three" console manufacturers building their business on older mobile hardware.

This is the most Helldivers 2 part for me. Spells being intentionally tricky to execute, combined with accidental element interactions and "friendly fire."
