That may change when they eventually ship Zelda: Breath of the Wild next year. I think missing the Christmas window will hit them pretty hard. And it's supposed to ship on the WiiU and the NX simultaneously. How many Zelda fans, myself

Have they played Zelda: Skyward Sword? It's not as good as TP or OoT, but it's still really good.

I've experienced weird behavior with GIMP on Windows. It mangled my clipboard usage with Teamviewer (wth?), tablet support is hit and miss, and other just plain odd behavior. That's not a complaint, I've no right to complain

Amazon have their own app store for Fire devices and Androids. It requires installing Amazon's apk though, which also requires changing a security setting.

I had an ancient account, over a decade I guess, back when I was on AIM, ICQ and MSN, I think? I recently signed back up for just this reason. So far, so good! I InApp'd a month, but will likely get a year's worth at renewal.

USB, AGP and P6 support were in 95 OSR 2.5. For my money, 95 OSR 2.5 was better than 98 (until 98SE came out). Edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_95#Editions

If it's got wifi, you could check from your phone, or have it upload automatically from the garage (wifi range depending).

But presumably you could have the Pi listen for a trigger word or whistle or whatever using software running locally, and when triggered, kick over to the Alexa API?

uBlock Origin is also available on Firefox for Android. It's by far my favourite mobile browsing combo.

I took it to be more defensive than passive-aggressive. I took that emojis to be the exact opposite of the almost sarcastic tone I think you're interpreting it to have. I guess even with emojis, it's hard not to make tone ambiguou

It's also cheap to go from HDMI to VGA now, a "Ugreen" HDMI to VGA converter (with 3.5mm audio out) is about $8.50. I think the popularity of the Pi has helped there. (The adapters are great, but depending on what you'r

Not necessarily. I picked one up about a week ago, I guess? Impulse purchase. Keep an eye on etailers that won't back-order, and just nab one when they come into stock. There's a stampede, but it's then luck of the draw.

I take an opposing view, and not because of any love for Fry. OP of TFA says, "I love Stephen Fry, really I do". I am someone who loathes Stephen Fry, with his pseudo-intellectual wittering, his incorrect presumption of understand

So he can quote the creator of 10/GUI, "DesktopNeo has some more promising ideas (there's some really good thought iterating on full-height window workflows)... it's a strong showing overall."

Depends on your budget. If you don't have $150 disposable income to blow on a screwup, it's an expensive mistake. It's like getting a parking ticket for parking somewhere you've unknowingly been parking illegally for yea

The post is a useful cautionary tale, and he's not alone in getting burned by Glacier pricing. Unfortunately it was OP not reading the docs properly. Yes, the docs are imperfect (and were likely worse back in the day). And it was compo

This is no longer necessary, they now allow you to specify ranges of partial files. So you can split a single large file into multiple requests to keep you within allowance or within budget.

Zombies are used in the survivalist/prepper community as a euphemism for people looking to take your stuff. Because describing how to defend your home against humans can be legally risky, and off-putting. With the exception of the actu

You don't connect to the swarm using your ISP-supplied IP address. You can use a VPN service and tunnel all your traffic through that. You can use a seedbox, which is basically your torrent client running on a virtual machine or shared
