   Windows 10 in dark mode is just horrible. Overlapping windows are really hard to see where one begins and another ends. I long for Windows 3.11/OS2 Warp style window decoration with goofy distinct colors and a menu bar in every app. Th

   I think many health problems are related to not a few single causes, but to a cocktail of problems, some chemical, other purely lifestyle(sleep, food, exercise). It's humbling how much AND little we know about processes in the body. Ju

   Not sure what you are advocating here. If someone successfully injects code that perform a direct syscall they can successfully use this info leak despite a safe and patched (g)libc.

   On iOS the "JBL Portable" app(a recent new name for their app JBL Connect) does not require any access to location. Are you talking about the Android app?

    I wonder how this is related to the so called "mediterranian diet"? I mean, the advantages for the mediterranian diet could perhaps at least in part be attributed to the times at which people eat rather than the exact food they ea

    I was prescribed bupropion to stave off lack of energy and possibly heighten my mood. To my surprise it made me so sleepy I had to take it before bed. For most other people it seems like they can hardly sleep while on bupropion. I was told

    I really like Firefox and Rust. It feels like Mozilla's most important products and I feel, and could be wrong, that when they recently laid off skilled tech people they fired the wrong people. Don't fire the doers! I'm guess

    It's Linux only apparently. Is it the use of some Linux only kernel API that enables it to be slightly faster than the other frameworks?

    A lot of people think their iPhone is a general purpose computer, it isn't. If Apple is forced to allow other app stores etc, shouldn't MS, Sony and Nintendo be forced to open their platforms as well?

    How does that interact with the NMI on the ZX Spectrum? I'm not a ZX programmer, but I've read that ZX has a NMI that fires and can't be reprogrammed.

    I see that Safari does not support this (yet). Might it be possible to compile this to wasm and decode it that way on the client?

    Thanks for reminding me. Years ago, on another iMac, I did this to turn off VSync. I recall it did work. I don't know if it does work on recent macOS's though. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12345730&#x2F

    It could auto-run from tape. Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UoF6_nXMSw But from disk drive you needed to type LOAD"*",8,1 for it to load into something other than BASIC start address.

    For me, the interesting development right now is the drastic increase of CPU cores. ARM or Intel doesn't matter much except for gaming in Windows. But of course, Apple does often surprise us all, maybe this could be something cool afte
