Exactly. Compare Steam Machine (2014) to Steam Machine (2026). The difference this time around is Proton support, and you can pretty easily see the hype on the internet for the new version, even after the original version was mocked relentl

Apple and gaming is like oil and water, it'll never happen. They'll spend billions on a handful of (late) AAA ports for macOS every 4-5 years, and then go radio silent again.

Every time someone says "Half-Life 3" it's delayed another day from announcement. That's why everyone right now is talking about this "HLX" thing...

The C-levels leading the companies might, and the tech CEOs in question have been at the helm for a long enough while to build up some emotional feelings.

It's a one-time thing per file while Gimp is open. Subsequent exports can be triggered instantly with Ctrl+E or File -> Export (instead of Export As...)

by Andrex 11mo ago
They made that change sometime in 2.x(?) and I doubt they'll walk it back. Getting into the export flow takes time but I find it to be cleaner.

Right, because his passport wasn't confiscated. I still err on this being stupidity by the Clark County cops in the lack of further information.

Ideally you'd want to add selectable options for users in a way that's sustainable long-term and not just panic-adding things all over the place because of user demands. That's how you get the Handbrake situation that OP arti

Another Gimp diehard for life here. I should make a donation, I appreciate the reminder. People go on and on about how bad Gimp's UI is, and while I won't defend it I will the criticism is 99% overblown. https://i.imgur

Gimp actually, finally had their big 3.0 update earlier this year which "modernized" (to ~5 years ago) a lot of the codebase. The UI is mostly the same but it's using much more modern UI components (editing text isn't te

From reading the Wiki, it seems like the state cops (who were somehow in charge of the case) forgot to take his passport when they arrested him, and then he just fled after he paid bail? Is there any evidence he was helped in his escape by

Fwiw I've been getting random email offers over the years to buy my old dev account for like $100-300. Dev accounts are going to become a prized commodity on the black market with this move. (I didn't sell my acct, for the record.

There might be insurance and bank contracts higher up the chain that classify it as a financial dealing and thus require stricter conformance. I'm speculating tbh I have no idea for sure.

Part of the lucky 1% maybe. But only until the one day you really need Bluetooth to work and it just doesn't. We many Bluetooth sufferers will happily accept you into our ranks when (not if) that day comes. :)

I'm no fan of Apple's, but Bluetooth is one of the shittiest human inventions of all time, has always been bad and will likely always be bad. A million bandaids ain't gonna make a bone-healing cast.
