I'm not that big of a fan of Microsoft to begin with, but I definitely see a reason to be wary about this. I don't really want any Microsoft integration into GitHub, and really the best case would be for them to not change much wi

Huh, somehow I never knew that it was an old PC game, I was only familiar with the Sega Genesis version of the game. In any case, this game is fantastic, and I'm excited to try this version out.

A little bit off topic, but what are the best libraries for drawing simple graphics like this? I've been looking into making a small graphics project and I'm not sure which is the best to use. It only needs to draw basic shapes li

I've been heavily thinking about making an emulator for a while now, maybe seeing some of the sources here will motivate me to go through with it.

I've been looking into writing an emulator for a while now. There are some excellent references for specific systems, but one of the best sources I've found is here: http://www.codeslinger.co.uk/pages/basics.h

Every time I see this video I am blown away by the technical skill involved. I would have difficulty creating this with video editing software, let alone writing assembly programs to inject into a game to actually do this. The Portal song i

I had some of these earlier today as well. Mine wasn't from telus however, it was from some .science account. I use a password manager and have 2FA enabled, but I quickly switched my password just to make sure. Sure enough, a few hours

I'm a big retro Sega fan, and I've always wanted to look into doing something like this, but this seems... really difficult. Would the best approach be to jump right in and hope for the best, or are there any sources I should loo

Can someone explain to me what exactly this is? I thought DNS was something to match URLs with IP addresses? How exactly is it private and fast?

I expect Mastodon's numbers to sharply increase over the next few months, and I wouldn't be surprised if this month was by far their sharpest increase in users. The 'big' social medias have had over a decade head start,

A very interesting read. I only somewhat follow competitive Melee, but the lack of a formalized "chess-like" ranking system has always been interesting to me. I was surprised about the author's discussion about the double eli

People may see this comment and think it's being standoffish, but it's the truth. What OP wants is a system where you transfer traditional currency into digital money (which you're going to need to use a credit card/bank

I think there's a middle ground to this. Submit your report to Apple security, allow them time to develop a patch, and then in a week go ahead and tweet at the big media outlets about it. I'm a die-hard Apple user myself, but I ag

As an avid Vivaldi user, I was impressed with what Firefox Quantum had to offer. I hadn't used Firefox since Chrome became dominant, it was interesting to see what Firefox had to offer compared to the Chromium-based ecosystem. Personal

While I still vastly prefer Twitter over Facebook, I have to disagree with you; I think Twitter is beginning to go down the same road that Facebook did a few years ago. Twitter (like Facebook) was set up with a core set of rules for the use

Yes, all old NES games were written in 6502 assembly (named after the NES's 6502 processor), and even most games into the Super Nintendo and Game Boy days were written using assembly language. The source would've looked very simil

As a recent Vim user, I used to roll my eyes at people who were so dedicated to it, but I'm quickly coming around. There are still some quirks I haven't gotten used to however, the biggest one being the emphasis on keeping your fi
