At the end of the thread, they say they've found the toggle, but it is greyed-out in the off position.

Acorn is one of the very, very few remaining pieces of software where the update notification popping up makes me go "Oh nice, what's this then?" instead of filling me with existen…

I've never forgotten this SIGGRAPH demo from almost twenty years ago, in which the authors effectively switch camera and light source computationally (... in a static scene) [1] Ev…

No, they do not, and they did not. They started throttling devices based on battery age after "Batterygate" in 2016, after a wave of news that their phones were suddenly shutting o…

Never mind cleaning up, you also have to understand the language just to judge and review the LLMs output. How else are you to separate good design and implementation from a bad on…

> I've done the same with my artwork over the years, hoping that someone would come along and collab or "remix" my art into something new and interesting. I don't do promotion, so …

This brought a wide smile to my face. Thank you for telling that story.

I would describe myself as strict and dogmatic about email etiquette and consent as they come, but I am with avianlyric about the subscription reminders. Legal requirements aside —…

Different Westbam. The DJ you're thinking of is still alive.

For some people like me, iOS parental controls are utterly and completely broken. I have tried to make it work over three or four years and just as many iOS releases - no dice. Abo…

Ooh, it's time to pull out the classics! Please feel free to check the boxes as you see fit, as I am currently too lazy to have Claude do it for me. Your post advocates a ( ) techn…

Just did Galway-Rome and enjoyed it! I'll check back in a while when you've had time to implement the minimap and tourist center, as you wrote elsewhere. What was weird: Paris did …

I... well, you are welcome :-) Playing around with it for ten seconds, it looks to me you might even use the Shortcuts app to - Take interactive screenshot - Extract text from scre…

Full-stack Rails has been my day job pretty much exclusively for almost twenty years now, for both long-term projects and one-offs in agency contexts. So I am generally interested.…

Aah, don't worry, that's why they introduced system-wide text recognition in images, powered by Apple Intelligence! Just take a screenshot of that album description, and ... sigh

We cannot, no. A break break, as clean and hard as can be under the circumstances is required. There will be gnashing of the teeth, doomsaying galore, a few actual minor catastroph…

One is a sitting president, one hasn't been in a decade. What do you believe is more pressing, and why?

Wow, in the age of affordable LLM-results, there is something heraldic to posting primitive Markov-chain results such as these. The question I have never been able to answer, thoug…
