I'm actually kinda glad that Windows 10 forces the user to be very explicit when changing the default browser. Yeah, they use it to push Edge, of course. Better than programs changing it without the user knowing.

Daki. Just kidding. One thing I've learned to avoid depression: keep yourself occupied. While you're finding your solution it'll help you stop getting any worse.

That's interesting. You think they'd let a CS student look it over?

It seems like that this may actually take a lesser physical toll on the body for some applications - the example given in the article stated that mechanics no longer had to constantly go up and down ladders to consult documentation.

You're absolutely right. Apple is trying to make it work on Macs, which is the real issue.

Mac gaming isn't going to go much of anywhere... I mean, Apple is still trying to push Metal instead of updating OpenGL on macOS. Practically no one except the largest AAA developers and engine authors care about Metal. Everyone else d

But you can make money if nobody uses Bitcoin. Such is speculation.

You can't seriously be comparing those <1000 companies to the entire rest of the world economy. Cryptocurrency doesn't even register as a drop in the metaphorical bucket.

This is going to be difficult to get answers to; if I remember correctly most of these acquisitions come with a non-disclosure clause.

There's a good chance that a nuclear exchange would result in a nuclear winter, and in the process drastically decrease the amount of arable land. In the worst case, agriculture could become impossible entirely. You might say that the

Our eggs are currently all in one celestial basket. We need to try, desperately, to ensure that the human race does not go extinct (by fault of our own or otherwise). This means an alternative habitat. We've gotten really good at terra

Do any significant number of people genuinely take Bitcoin to be the future of currency at this point?

So let's put our weight behind an incredibly wasteful platform that eats up ungodly amounts of electricity for very little gain?

That's true. Honestly I'm just hoping that HGST keeps their reputation as reliable HDDs even though they've been bought by WD. Backblaze always found that they fail less often.

Many people are saying here that the slowing of the rate of change is due to business consolidation... I would argue that it is probably due to physics instead. The traditional way of storing more data on a platter, shrinking the size of ea

In a perfect world, consumers have perfect information and understand the subtleties of repairability and all of the unseen costs of disposable products. This is not a perfect world. Government needs to step in because waste is a serious pr

The one example I have ever seen is Denuvo DRM for PC games, in certain games for (very) limited times. Denuvo has gained widespread adoption among AAA game publishers because it tends to hold for the critical period when a game first goes

I did a quick search for your touch screen problem. It seems you might have been able to, instead of replacing the whole unit, replace the digitizer only, if possible. The whole assembly (including screen) appears to be $200-300 before labo

Easy. Don't. One day the bubble is going to pop and cryptocurrencies will be largely forgotten. The entire bubble is built on speculation. This is clearly unsustainable. Bitcoin will probably still be used as a medium of exchange for i

Now all we need is a higher-level language that compiles to Sheets VM. How hard would it be to write a C-like for this?

So is it likely (or even possible) that TSLA really is the most shorted stock on Earth? I've seen this tossed around repeatedly, although perhaps it's just a rumor. On the other hand, > Tesla said that it's now "rare&

Which is a shame. I doubt any real antitrust cases will be brought here in the US for the next 4 years.

Take a look at history - India, for example, which took one of the most famous revolutionies of all time to escape Britain's rule, which they agitated for because of awful policies like the salt tax.

$80 isn't cheap and isn't a particularly good value relative to RetroPie or the like, but it's great for the casual consumer. Final Fantasy VI is probably worth the asking price alone. Many of the games in the package feature
