Very minor anecdata I would like to share: I have discovered Veritasium like most others, at the time when they weren't "clickbaiting", when their videos actually had the thing tha…

They will apparently (at least) offer new input types such as tag fields. You can find a few references of the pro features in the documentation and guides.

> If I could go on Twitter and only see stuff from people I follow I'd feel the same as you about it. But they make it almost impossible not to be barraged with other stuff too, an…

I have opened a merge request on Refined Hacker News ( https://github.com/plibither8/refined-hacker-news ) which is a pretty great HN extension for Firefox and other browsers. Than…

I understood it like you did. She--the author--even wrote that she had translators for all the languages supported by the app, hence the 50-to-30 chars kerfuffle.

The screen is apparently a 16:10 display, plus approximately 70 (not sure about the number) pixels on top: thusly, when an app goes fullscreen, the OS just blacks out those top pix…

It appears to work for Netflix, but not YouTube videos. Are there restrictions in the implementation? Edit: following this¹ (without installing any driver though) was enough to mak…

I'd been using Firefox ever since the Phoenix days. And somehow, sometime, I moved to Chrome like everyone did... until I had enough of Google, and came back to Firefox right at th…

Government numbers in France show 80.2% today ("The figure gives the share of the population over the age of 12 that are fully vaccinated (all required doses") We crossed 60% on Ju…

GreenWithEnvy is such a NVIDIA-focused utility

Pipewire (which is being released in mainstream distros since this summer) has mostly/entirely fixed these issues. On my particular end (Arch, for gaming) it's 100% perfect with no…

There's a boulevard in my city named after him. According to autocomplete, there's at least six another french cities having such a boulevard. The big store "Galeries Lafayette" is…

Also, those are old bridges/columns/whatever. The French are not erecting any new structure bearing his name or symbol.

I remember (barely) from a diver friend that colors disappear below 20 meters (everything appears blue, unless a bright light is shone), and sun light disappears completely below 7…

There was concern at one point that the laser component of Starlink woulldn't burn up during atmospheric reentry. I don't think many (if any) satellites currently in orbit have tha…

The (tl;dw) money quote of that video: > Today there would be, you know, three protests, and the losers would sue the federal government because they didn’t win… --Bezos

In case it wasn't a rhetorical question, Crew Dragon does not have an airlock that would allow for a suited astronaut to leave the craft while maintaining atmosphere inside it. Plu…

Isn't that a tax thing? Prices in Europe are displayed VAT-included, while prices in the US are VAT-free, are they not?

They specifically mention Arch Linux (with KDE Plasma desktop) in the software specs SteamOS 2 was Debian-based

It is! A new version, in fact. It includes Proton. (I'm not sure if SteamOS v2 and below were already Arch-based, but it's interesting to know that v3 is, given that the Steam Linu…

I think you misread OP. Paragraphs 1 & 3 are OP talking, paragraph 2 is "advertisers" talking.

This is highly interesting to me (very bad vision thanks to keratoconus, can't stand contacts, and trying to wear my glasses less often for reasons). I can't wait to see this exten…

You are right. Plus, the Diablo 2 remaster announced at the same time as Diablo 4 (IIRC) Based on past track record, I don't hold much hope, though

Blizzard died the day it was bought by Activision. It has been descending into mediocrity ever since. Many executives left, and many studios/teams inside Blizzard have been shuffle…
