    Do they work without noticable latency on other devices? I've always found the BT technology wasn't designed for gaming, it even has a feature to delay streamed video until the sou…

    I think I set up my Apple account about 14 years ago. I have no clue what I put as security answers when I was young, even though I think I have the answers, it won't accept them. …

    This reaction is normal, aletik could have been the next Jia Tan, for all we know, and could have distributed "fake notepad++ for Mac" binaries with backdoors in them to thousand o…

    The letter "y" is off, it's bugging me.

    I've been wondering why my scroll speed was off in LinkedIn, inspecting scroll-related css without finding an answer, I thought this was a bug. Anyone know what property does this?…

    It seems the term has been introduced by Andrej Karpathy in February 2025, so yes, but very often, people say "vibe coding" when they mean "heavily (or totally) LLM-assisted coding…

    I would recommend it yes, the biggest pain point of switching OSes for me is getting your data out on an external drive, I'm not good with backups so it always takes a while for me…

    Ha ha, I think the busybox rm implementation also doesn't have it, be careful, it's present in lightweight containers, even though it's probably a recent thing. Can't speak for Mac…
