Perhaps, but their policies and support for old hardware far exceeds anything you see in the Android world. But you point out THIS "shitty company" while not throwing your gaze towards all the other "shitty companies" li

Long LOOOONG ago, I had a good relationship with Adobe. For instance, I was one of the beta-testers for Photoshop 3.0 (which was the first to do native CMYK). Would talk with them all the time over the phone. But those guys have long since

Guess I'm dumb, because I've been subscribed to YouTube premium for quite a while now. I watch it on many devices that don't have any way of installing ad-blockers (like streaming devices to TVs). Not to mention, that an &quo

It is free. It LITERALLY is in unlimited access. It's in everything you eat...unless you live in a cave and only eat squirrels and rabbits. Especially in the US where High Fructose Corn Syrup is in nearly every product that's cons

Is it? Is this a States thing? That in the United States that nudity and pornography is "dangerous", yet in other cultures throughout Europe, it's not taken as seriously, nor does it have this overall "dangerous" ta

With past experience with law enforcement, if they don't get what they want, they will continue to harass and needle and try to chip away at what they can until they get some semblance of what they wanted.

Yes, exactly. Around 1993-94 I was running through so many different OS's on my Micron Pentium. DOS, then OS/2 Warp, then Linux, then Windows 3.1, then back to OS/2, then to Linux. Drove my wife crazy.

I began tinkering with Linux about 6 months after it's inception. I think....think...it was what became Slackware in what I gathered up the things to make it run on my Micron Pentium. This was in the day I was trying everything on that

They are absolutely "tech". Either automotive tech or agricultural tech. I mean, if you want to be totally pedantic about it, go for it. Doesn't make it accurate though.

Long-time Scrivener user here. The main thing that annoys me is that it's sporadically updated.

The articles were great. The comments/forum sections were one of the levels of Hell.

I met Ed at a VERY small Pixar booth at a SIGGRAPH. This was when they were only doing animated shorts showing off of Renderman, and doing some commercials. This was before Toy Story hit. But Ed was there with a few other people, manning th

Steve never claimed he was a co-founder either...unlike someone else with a certain car company he bought.

"First off I despise both Apple and that other evil empire (house of mouse) I want nothing to do with either of them." So they decide to go with a company/device that has the absolute worst record of spying on their users? Ro

TIL that Dota had over 40k people still playing. ZING! But seriously, I haven't played it in years and years...mostly because of the cheating and the toxicity of it's players.

I'm an old guy...in my 60s. I grew up with film and love the look of old movies. But this is 2023. Why are we still hanging on to a "look" that peaked in the 50s and 60s? Technology moves on. I mean, I get it. People are stub

I love jazz. I love Monk. What I don't care for is the jazz musicians and "purists" who, in essence, is like "if it's not jazz, IT'S CRAP" attitude. Especially when they compare jazz to rock. Listen to the

We haven't had cable TV here in almost 20 years. But we've had some type of high-speed internet and on a business account...which never has data caps of course. Back then, much of our TV viewing was with the old Netflix DVD-throug

I was mainly asking what do people use today instead of Python. Things that Python was usually used for, but now people use something else? Hence the whole "I STILL use Python after all this time" kind of thing.

As a layman that's only dabbled in Python, what would be a newer, go-to language today that people use instead of Python?

Back in the day, he used to be a really nice guy. At least that's how he projected himself. I met him a few times at different trade shows and he was great. Then he got his own "empire". He became the boss. He married his bus

Those journalists weren't reporting specific locations of his jet...they were reporting on a legit news story about it. Musk didn't like it so the journalists are now banned. The dude is truly off his rocker now. The "rules&q

Because what they did wasn't original. I've seen this pose, this "look", this everything thousands of times over before this person was even alive. To claim this whole thing is copy-writable is ludicrous. Now, the image

Now you just need QuarkXpress loaded on it and use a weird 3rd party font manager to load the customers weird fonts....and then have it simulate crashing every 5 minutes or so. Would really bring back that OS 9 feeling.

While I applaud this endeavor, I don't watch YouTube on a computer that much. It's mainly via my TV...either on streaming box like AppleTV or others. I have this nice big 4K, 65" TV that can show those 4K YouTube videos in al

REAPER to me has been wonderful. Very light-weight and can do anything that the big ones do. It just doesn't come with a ton of it's own instruments and sounds like Ableton or Logic or others might. But if you have a ton of VSTs (
