    2025 and 2026 have proven that to be vastly untrue. It was never true. If it was anything, it was rampant laziness.

    And some sports games, which is where it seems clear they just wanted their own Wii Sports. Not so much the game itself so much as the excuse for the masses to buy a console for a …

    It was 100% chasing the Wii. It didn't chase all that hard, either.

    Why are all the screenshots showing a translucent window. If “it is designed specifically for power users who want […] zero interface clutter”, why advertise it by making it look l…

    Your comment got downvoted for being flippant but I agree. It's an interesting discussion but it really comes off as grandstanding. Doesn't address the main thrust of the article n…

    Mac OS X 27. 10.27? But that means there were two each of 10.11, 10.12, 10.13, 10.14, and 10.15 :-)

    Voilà, I think you may have fallen for their trap. That's why they've done nothing about this to date even though volume normalisation is a solved problem.

    I have control bugs. Like, if I drag around a window using my trackpad, I can't seem to 'drop' the window; the state doesn't change and I'm stuck with a window attached to my mouse…

    It doesn't have that on Windows. When natural scrolling is enabled on Windows, it works the same as on macOS.

    Touching a trackpad is just an indirect way to touch the document. You're doing the exact same motion, pressing upwards on the trackpad to push the page upwards.

    What’s the point of being forced to open something up if only to say ‘no’ to Meta? Can’t have it both wars. It’s either open or it’s not.

    It makes sense on a trackpad too which is what the majority of sold Macs come with. You’re “pushing” the document, not moving the scroll bars. Seems perfectly natural to me. My fin…

    Super ZSNES and the original ZSNES are not the same emulator. Same developers, different codebases entirely. The linked website is about the newer Super ZSNES.
