  • That might not rule out hidden variables, the position of the lever should be determined by the polarisation of photons from the other side of the universe. That way you can at least rule out local variables.

  • Microsoft: "My PC"

    Jump

  • Look, I used to work with computers that would take 5 minutes to turn on. I'm done waiting for computers to boot, I want it to take the least time it can. If hibernation takes just 1 second off, I'm gonna use it.

  • YSK: Gas stoves cause cancer

    Jump

  • We swapped out a gas for induction, it's amazing to be able to put the temp down below very hot. Also very responsive to power changes, and can wipe clean.

  • Anti-cheat stops Mecha BREAK running on Desktop Linux but works on Steam Deck

    Jump

  • Wait so it doesn't detect or do anything to check? It's just "well you said it was" and is ok with that.

  • Microsoft Office support in Windows 10 ends in October too - what that really means

    Jump

  • Office is not supported on those platforms at all so won't make a difference to your support.

  • Life isn't easy if your last name is 'Null' as it still breaks database entries the world over

    Jump

  • Use parameters, that way data and queries are separate.

  • It took me way too long to realize symlinks were a thing and why I couldn't understand my Linux directories

    Jump

  • I don't think that does an actual rewite point. A lot of the localisation features were done using file explorer. You can even "localise" folders yourself using custom desktop.ini files. But those changes only showed in file explorer.

    Now email! In exchange the standard folders such as inbox are localised, but don't have a fixed alias. So if doing administration you need to know the language of a mailbox to know the name of say the Calendar folder, so you can update permissions.

  • Google Chrome disables uBlock Origin for some in Manifest v3 rollout

    Jump

  • I still use the full screen tab groups feature that they removed from the core. I don't like scrolling tabs, so I can just hit a button and click on the exact tab I want. I do probably have too many tabs open tbh.

  • BlackBerry's iconic keyboard patent has expired

    Jump

  • I never had a blackberry, but gained a hatred of them. Not for anything the phone was, but at how bad at software they were. The blackberry software to allow them to read emails from the company mail server was an over bloated, buggy and slow POS. It would forever break and the solution was always to remove and re-add it which would take a day and disrupt email for everyone.

    But some CEO "needed" to use a blackberry as it looked corporate.

  • OpenSSH vulnerabilities could pose huge threat to businesses everywhere

    Jump

  • If my isp would support ipv6, that would be great!

  • Are there any examples of an "abandoned" game's fans successfully getting the game to be open-sourced?

    Jump

  • Winamp dumping a bunch or proprietary information on GitHub is a good example of this.

  • Anyone Can Push Updates to the DOGE.gov Website

    Jump

  • Something breaks

    Why do we have all these IT people? Nothing works!

  • New Youtube Web Update Requires HTML5 Canvas

    Jump

  • It's probably more of a scale thing, going a conversation server side need CPU time, if it can be done prior to upload then server time is reduced. I think a lot of websites do client side processing so they can do more requests per server instance.

  • How is this new? Reddit gold gave you access to the subreddit that only gold members could access. It didn't have anything good in it as everyone would rather have a larger reach.

    If he intends to convert an existing sub to it, he will quickly find how much people are happy to more to a new sub.

  • THAT'S DIFFERENT!

    Jump

  • S mode!

    If you buy one in s mode, then you can't run 3rd party programs or particular built-in ones. That includes command prompt, which is why shift-f10 didn't work. It's ok as you can get out of it by, going to the ms store after logging in as an admin!

    We now see the problem with s mode in the out of box experience.

  • The style at the time :)

    Jump

  • This was much later. At the time unicode was not supported throughout the internet, so we were limited to ansi/ASCII.

  • Dreams ‘crushed’ as Ticketmaster cancels fans’ Oasis ’25 tickets

    Jump

  • Am I being cynical if I wonder if Ticketmaster just cancelled a number of tickets randomly, just so they can resell those at its new "market price." Normally I would just assume incompetence or a mistake, but this is Ticketmaster.

  • Good morning I choose creativity and recycling.

    Jump

  • I like those 6, but was not the mnemonic that was advertised around me. In general the order follows the life cycle of the minerals, so reduce is first as it means you dig up less. Reuse/repair is after it has been dug up, so less goes to disposal.

  • Good morning I choose creativity and recycling.

    Jump

  • I would argue that repair is part of re-use, since you are allowing it to be used again. So would be part of the second r. The first r is reduce, which would boil down to: if you already have one, don't buy another. It's more effective to not need the resources in the first place.
