I can't let go of Google Chrome fully, so I'm looking for alternatives once uBlock origin ceases to function shortly. I've yet to test this, but this looks nice. However it doesn't have a big community around it, and I&#

Looking at this, it has similar aspects as ASP.NET Core, and the same flaws as the Controller per class design used. Methods such as "index", "show" and "store" do not share a state, they shouldn't share a

I switched to Firefox about 3 weeks ago, what is killing me is dragging the tabs. It is so much worse with Firefox. Someone has made a video of this if one can't remember how they differ: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v

I'm always looking for alternatives to AutoHotkey and small C WINAPI programs I've written. Rust doesn't quite cut it, even with Microsoft's windows-rs library using the WinAPI functions is worse than it was with plain C

Looks good, one quick thing: Maybe hide the comments behind a button? Now they are giving away the answer, as some have already posted it there in the first comments.

The only solution I can think of is smarter algorithms that hide negativity and other unwanted comments. Yes you could limit replies, but that doesn't solve the problem for big accounts, their followers have all kinds of unhinged peopl

That is the same animation, but it is also triggered if you have chosen a different wallpaper per virtual desktop. It animates the background change when switching desktops, and the animation feels like it lasts around 500ms. I wouldn'

That is the weird part. My explorer.exe patch to disable flashing taskbar buttons was functioning with Microsoft Defender turned on for the whole lifetime of Windows 10 I used it. I didn't even need a UAC prompt to patch the memory. No

I know it must be frustrating from Microsoft's standpoint, but those are needed because they keep changing things. Start All Back is one very popular explorer.exe patch that makes the Windows 11 taskbar function a lot like Windows 10.

Async solves different problems, you can, for instance, have just a single-threaded CPU and still have a nice API if you have async-await. It might not be so cool at a higher level as Go's approach of channels and threads, but it'

That's my experience too, it's near perfect for internal tools like admin panels, where you don't necessarily need to hire dedicated front-end engineers. UI might be a bit ugly, but that's okay for internal use. Usually,

It gave me the warning with uBlock origin a few weeks ago. I think the ad-detection is not turned on for all, that's why it may seem it still works. It also could be that some of the filters in uBlock trigger the detection more than ot
