I use uBlock Origin to do it. It took me years to find it was the small </> button in the bottom right corner. Don't forget to save the settings for this website afterwards.

Screen size is a hugely personal preference. I prefer having a screen as big as possible, and used a 7" fonepad in the past (that bezel though!). Now the 6.67" Oneplus 7 Pro is more than enough, and fits in more pockets. I respect

Too bad there's no mention of the new BTF file format, which is supposed to resolve this issue for the eBPF side: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/bpf/btf.html

If I'm reading correctly, this means they'll pay about €30k / year (see https://fund.blender.org/corporate-memberships/ ), and "assign developers to contribute to Blender's open source projects

Windows is the land of the reverse engineering. Linux, despite its powerful tools still lacks far behind in this area (reverse engineering and cracking apps).

I've met him as well, a few times, but do not know him personally like you. He is definitely very humble and a very good listener. When he told us about this side project he was working on about a year ago, he made it seem like it wasn

There's at least two years of work in there as Fabrice Bellard's side project. This would mean about ~10-15 man-years of full-time work for a small team of experienced engineers, which is about what it took for jerryscript: https

It would have a much lower memory and binary size impact. If your program is short-running, it could also be faster.

Oh no, I'm in the same boat :-(. Are we sure about that though ? There won't be more betas for the ESR ? Otherwise it's no big deal for me, I'll just go back to Brave :-/

After a few years of using Brave on Android, I switched back to Firefox, since I now have a powerful enough device that the bad cold boot performance can be ignored. A few missing things: - Chromium's zoom on tap is really more intelli

I'd agree with the hackaday commenters that this seems like they considered putting eMMC (or any kind of flash) storage on the high-end board. Would have been nice considering the reliability of most microSD cards.

Unfortunately chargebacks aren't as simple in the EU, in addition to country-specific rules that make them hard to use in some countries.

Yes, exactly like Linux, Apache, Docker or your favorite language were off-limits to serious developers in large engineering firms at some point in time. Things are evolving, so we'll see how it goes.

Yes, if you manage to buy the exact same hardware. Unfortunately with laptops, the hardware configs change at best every year, and at worst every quarter, for a single model family. And often you don't know the exact model before buyin

It seems that Lenovo has been certifying their model for Ubuntu (probably for enterprise customers) for a quite a long time. There are a bit less models recently, but a few already have an Ubuntu 18.04 certification: https://cert

I've defended it in the past when it used to be faster (combined with pre-loading) than most websites, on mobile. Nowadays, it should be quite easy to optimize a website enough to be faster than the AMP version, but it seems not many w
