    I have these, which has the feature-combination you asked for: https://www.bodet-time.com/products/clocks/metal-analogue-cl... My main gripe with them is that they reset at midnigh…

    Isn't BitLocker ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitLocker ) how Windows supports full disk encryption by default (shipped with Vista and later)? From an end-user perspective it see…

    FWIW, HiDPI support does not work on Linux either. All icons, color palette, custom cursors are about half the size they should be on my 4k monitor. Scrolling is pretty choppy and …

    While interesting in and of it self, it seems to have seen no changes since mid-2013, looking at its GitHub repository ( https://github.com/greedy/scala ) > This branch is 211 comm…

    So I just took the coffee cup STL and loaded into the latest Cura myself, rotated in 90 degrees so it was standing upright. Without changing anything else, I ended up getting the l…

    It certainly raises some good questions, and the Printrbot is a great machine at the price point (I have a Printrbot Simple RepRap clone myself). His looks pretty well calibrated a…

    What you're saying is not really correct. You cannot just "buy a second 2xlarge" and then recombine them into a 4xlarge. The 2xlarge reservations and pay attention here need to mat…

    I've never ever received a message from AWS when they've had outages that have been affected us significantly. On the contrary, there's been multiple cases where we've experienced …

    This likely has a lot to do with how they do detection. Swift uses the .swift extension, which is pretty unique, so detection is as simple as checking for the file extension with a…

    Seems like it was the power-button looking icon found in the upper left part of the extension dropdown menu when on an actual page. I expected this to be a part of the extension se…

    I've been clicking around its user interface for a few minutes now, but I can't figure out how to do this.. Is it adding "whitelist *" somewhere or something similar?

    How I'm reading this, both up-front reservation fees and the hourly rates are lower for a lot of instance types. For example: Now: m3.xlarge $1266 $0.105 per Hour $1922 $0.086 per …

    No, they haven't released any new information about them yet.

    Ouch. App stores often take 30%, which means that only 52.5% (0.7*0.75) of what the user pays goes to the developer. That is quite a significant number.
