And it's not always reversed! Australian-made and Japanese-made cars tend to have indicator on the right stalk, and wipers on the left. European cars tend to have indicators on the left stalk, and wipers on the right. But not always! C

I'm not sure why digitalcameraworld.com has published this news. If you go to the DPreview home page, there is an article – https://www.dpreview.com/news/0507902613/dpreview-closure-an... – that the site will

Personally I think April Fools jokes on the internet have been getting out of hand for years now. Every man and his dog is putting out more and more ridiculous and inane “jokes”, each one raising the bar on its ridiculousness, trying to out

I checked my Connected Apps list and can still see Tweetbot there, but it said I approved those permissions back in 2011, is ”Tweetbot for iOS” the same as the current Tweetbot available in the App Store?

Fair enough. Sorry if I sounded pushy in my initial comment.

I read this comment and all I thought was "that's a real shame" that you stopped taking photos just because of the end result. You said yourself, that you liked the process. Surely in this case, the journey is the reward, not

Commodore took radio shielding rather seriously back then. The wedge Amigas (A500, A600 and A1200) also had excessive metal shielding everywhere. A lot of Amiga owners nowadays just dispose of that as it always gets in the way when you have

Yes that's a fair call. I don't really have an opinion in the matter as I am not interested in using this tool, but your question is a fair one.

It looks like there's a few glyphs being used in this application (things like folder icons, etc) that normal fonts aren't going to provide.

It may error out heaps of times, but requests that do make it through actually seem to come back with images that have considered more than just one or two words from the request. This one tends to come back with blobby images that don&#x27

The PHP documentation is excellent. I wish other PHP projects / frameworks like Laravel had clear, concise, down to earth documentation like PHP.net's, and doesn't require me to have a degree in computer science to understand

I took a look around the site outside of the comics, and saw that there were a list of social media sites to share the content, with the Reddit entry containing a link to the author's reddit account. Curious to see what the latest upda

What staggers me is that everyone knows (in Australia) that the ACCC can be quite the toothless tiger in many aspects, yet the mere mention of those 4 letters can make Adobe fold over instantly. It's so telling that Adobe reacts in thi

Slight tangent here, but back when I owned a 1995 BMW 525i I discovered while browsing a parts catalog that BMW had developed a special emergency fuel jerry can[0] that slots into the spare wheel. The can was flat bottomed but the sides cur

Fork is amazing, paid user here. We used to be on SourceTree but found out the hard way that it's a massive CPU hog, especially after being open for a long time (at least on Mac OS).

This looks great, looking forward to trying it out. I am kind of getting X Tree Gold vibes, great to see that the UI colours are customisable, I might have a crack at giving this an X Tree Gold theme / look.

And us iOS users all know how well that works in this ecosystem. Android ported apps might be easy to deploy and maintain, but they're in the most part trash to use in iOS.

by acherion 5y ago
With that logic, why aren't all iOS apps just ported Android ones?

Completely agree. I use the No Man's Sky fandom site as it is very comprehensive (and the No Man's Sky iOS app "Assistant for No Man's Sky" is just a ported Android app, complete with Android interface, which really
