OneDrive used to be great on Mac OS, but the recent change in API on the Mac OS side made it noticeably worse. These days it feels laggy and can have sync issues if you do file operations too fast. For example, if I drop a file in the folde

I use timeanddate.com probably every day, on average, for work. It's so handy, for both the calendars and the date calculators.

The level of misinformation in the replies there is pretty staggering. This is truly a "consult your attorney" question."

Agreed. It should have been a period or or at least a semicolon before "however": "Not many academic philosophers discuss magic; however, five centuries ago . . ." In any case, I think the author really meant "altho

Honestly I think that's because Apple cares far more about the iOS devices than it does about Mac OS (and did even in 2017). Mac OS is a second-class citizen for Apple. The main focus is on devices, and then services.

That's not necessarily true in the US. Federal law can either preempt state law, meaning that states are not permitted to pass stricter or less strict laws in an area (e.g., copyright and patent law), or not, meaning that states are fr

Yeah. It's her pet issue. Much like term limits and many other things for other elected representatives, if they actually addressed the issue there would be no reason to vote for her any more.

The easement is the public property, in that case. Blocking it is intruding on public property one way or the other.

I honestly don't see the problem. 5^2 = 3^2 + 4^2. Where is the error?

That’s really a shame. He’s lucky they were at least honest enough to give a straight answer, I suppose.

The difference is that the PSX disc had some semblance of DRM or at least indicated ownership. Most ROMs are just copied.

It would be worth it at 10x the price. $10 is a couple of cups of coffee or a cheap lunch in my area. I use Kagi a dozen times a day for work. The value proposition is very good. Every once in a while I’ll use a computer that doesn’t have K

How is this even a monopoly? That's like saying "Walmart has a monopoly on selling products at its stores." There are thousands of competing phones with their own software and app stores.

It's impossible to say for sure whether and how much the efforts helped, because we don't know the alternative. If we hadn't done those things, maybe the indicators would be 20% worse. Maybe 40%. Maybe 1%. We literally don&#x

To be fair, in Windows 11 this doesn't happen -- it detects when you are in games (or tries to) and withholds the messages.

Is that true? Maybe it's different on Mac OS, but for me (on a Mac), Zoom wants to update every time I open it, and often fails. It's very annoying.

It makes sense that the asbestos stuff would be required for a building that has asbestos. Improper remediation can cause harms outside of your property. The R-value also makes sense IMO. "You can't build houses that aren't p

If you are building from scratch, why do you need an asbestos survey? What are you surveying? And does your state really require spray foam insulation and solar? Or does it require an R-value for insulation and spray foam is the easiest way
