Yuuup. My personal website has been inaccessible to a few friends, they thought my server was down. It turned out they had some blocklist (not related to AI) installed on their PiHole, and for whatever reason my website was on that list. It

Win9x Notepad in particular can only load files up to 64KB in size (edit: and supports only ANSI encoding, no Unicode). There were some actually useful additions to it up until Windows 10 or so - for example being able to handle LF (in addi

To be fair, this grip indicator only (and still) exists when the window has a status bar. It's part of the Windows status bar design, not of the window design. Of course, many more applications used to have status bars than they do now

This, a thousand times this. I have gone back to collecting CDs because it's often the only remaining way (short of pircay) to get original masters of many artists. Even lossless download stores like Qobuz don't have them.

The same is true when running Winamp. When I was dabbling with FreeBASIC many years ago, my games performed better when I was listening to music. Same reason!

Note that his was the VST2 era. VST3 was commercial license or GPL 3, which was an improvement, but only slightly, because it excluded open-source software released under the GPL 2, and also MIT/BSD/whatever-licensed software coul

Entire BASIC interpreters were shipped in the very size-constrained ROMs of almost all home computers of the 80s. There was no luxury of parser generators. It's absolutely simple enough that you can write the lexer and parser yourself.

I've even seen it happening on pure music videos. It was the pinnacle of how brainlessly this feature was implemented.

That's not version control, that's file sharing. You cannot share or version your DAW projects like RPP files through SoundCloud.

Subjective: WinRAR has nicer UI. Objective: 7z (the format) doesn't have the same data recovery options as RAR. As it stands, RAR remains one of the best options for long-term archival of data for casual users thanks to its optional re

Mostly in older buildings. I don't think you see it as often in more modern bathrooms anymore.

I think "zero-click" usually refers to the interaction with the malicious software or content itself, which in this case you don't have to interact with. I'd say the need to start an interaction with Copilot here could b

CVEs are always filed against a specific product. If it's in a library, then it's typically the library and not all of its user. All of that information is already in the CVE database: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln&#x2
