Back when I used to run Chrome, I noticed one case that would do this (it was buried in Spotlight), but it didn't seem intentional (especially because web search results in Spotlight always respected the default browser setting, and sh

You can change how the bounding box Typst uses for layout is defined (i.e. set the top and bottom edges both to the baseline), then I would imagine the spacing would be baseline to baseline. Would need to adjust the space before a paragraph

Yes. It can also do windowed mirrors of real displays. That being said, BetterDisplay is $19 USD and crams in a ton of functionality, so for those who just want a single virtual screen for screen sharing (and don't need/want anyth

I count 7 octal digits per row. Any reason it's 7 instead of 6 (7×3 = 21 whereas 6×3 = 18 which is still greater than 16)?

I would expect the licensing situation to be very different for music than for normal YouTube uploads. YouTube sometimes[0][1] offers "YouTube Premium Lite" in some countries, which doesn't include YouTube Music. This heavily

You don't need permission from Apple to distribute macOS software. Your users will just see a warning dialog when they try and run it for the first time and have to go to System Settings to allow it to run[0]. If you want to avoid this

It seems to be working quite well in terms of ISP choice (see my reply to cycomanic). And Chorus is offering up to 8 Gbps connections over XGS-PON, with most of the other fibre companies either also offering XGS-PON or working to offer it.

by Aaron2222 2y ago
Chorus does let ISPs handover in just a single or a couple of points to provide service nationwide (well, for the areas they serve), instead of needing to do it at all 27 handover locations. I imagine it's possible to interconnect with

I suspect it's so that applications and macro buttons on mice can send keyboard shortcuts without the risk of their keyboard input interfering with the user's keyboard or vice versa. It may also help in cases where there are multi
