Stow the propaganda. 1) it's not over, the pandemic continues and will likely continue for a long time 2) it's already the fifth deadliest pandemic in known history. "Quarter pande…

Try pasting into an app/textbox that doesn't support any formatting then copy/paste from there.

No? I don't see how you arrived at that, it seems entirely non-sequitur. I guess you deeply misunderstood what I meant by "moral distance." I'm simply trying to give a name to the …

This is pure nonsense. The moral distance between a good deed and the level of bad deed that receives a meaningful penalty, socially (e.g. felonies) is enormous and there is plenty…

It's dark because OLED are not bright at all. Anything brighter than the filmmaker mode is modifying the source image to achieve it, or alternatively driving the pixels in a way th…

They're pretty good but when it comes to things like color, that can vary from panel to panel so you might actually end up with something worse. That said, I'd start there and if t…

It's rare but some source material is created with the assumption of overscan, whether that affects on-screen graphics or even some cases just total garbage is produced into the ov…

Seriously. Imagine people going out and proudly buying a shiny new MiniLED TV only to have their half-educated HN jockey of a child come in and disable the entire point of that tec…

That is an entirely different tool with the same name.

This is different than the backup feature, behaves extremely differently. The backup feature is so insanely slow that restoring from a typical USB media a 120GB game takes longer t…

For quite some time you could do this manually without much trouble, but you did need to know a few obscure steps to do it right. Basically a matter of finding the ID of the game s…

Apple ships an app THEMSELVES that enables this (for iPad anyway) https://apps.apple.com/us/app/swift-playgrounds/id908519492 and there are third party apps for general programming…

Fearmongering or maybe you just haven't been watching? Apple has already been doing advertising for years now. They make it quite easy to disable any tracking you might be concerne…

I had several experiences with Nintendo customer service from the NES timeframe through the GameCube timeframe and every single one was amazing, legendary even. I don't know if the…

I absolutely concur on the Turbo Pascal 5.5 book. It might sound absurd so I just had to add a voice to support this reality. It's been over 30 years but I really can't think of an…

You mean like this? https://noctua.at/en/asus-and-noctua-announce-asus-geforce-r...

I love science. I fully support the desire to answer big hard questions that may be answered with this tool. I absolutely am 100% behind spending this money on this telescope. I, h…

> under 80% should be suspect anyway This attitude disturbs me more than any other single aspect of the mass idiocy around adopting AI for critical things. 80% is horribly low accu…

I don't know when (or even if ) it changed, but, using notifications for ads/promotion on iOS used to be a dev terms violation. I really miss that era.

Uh well, along with others I'll just share how I differentiate them since both are common where I live. 3 Ways 1) if you can get a good look at the tail, think croW = wider/more or…

Any competent operation is continuously monitoring all available signals for signs of breach. All I read into this is that their systems have not identified any IoCs. Doesn't mean …

In October 2020 I did a deep analysis on commercially supported and/or hosted Kubernetes distributions and platforms (think Rancher, OpenShift, Tanzu, EKS, GKE, etc.) and after doi…

Interestingly, I originally bought it with this mindset (kickstarter 1/10000 owner here) but, life had other plans and basically it's become a very useful desktop toy playing exclu…

I share this experience. I come back and check on it every few months. It continues to baffle me what their priorities are. VIM support but extensions can't even BUILD or RUN. I lo…

SDT's from the 70's, not 2008. However, in 2009 Daniel Pink published a book that seems to basically neatly package up SDT in a much more directly consumable way, maybe that's wher…
