I used to use KeypassX. They Keypass switched to C# and mono, and I wasn't interested in running that on Linux. Then I found enpass. The Linux app is high quality, it syncs with my cloud of choice, and has Win/Mac and Android&#x2F

I have an 8.4" 16x10 tablet and I love it for media consumption. I ride the bus for over an hour each way. It's nice to be able to use the tablet for 2-3 hours a day and not drain the battery on my phone.

Agree. If you don't care about it, drop it. Then users will immediately get the message rather than be frustrated as support gets worse and worse. I'm glad I use the xfs filesystem on Arch Linux. I dumped Dropbox immediately. Pret

I'd be glad to pay a 'match' fee, where they match my library for a small fee per game. But buying $60 games again is not going to happen. This might mean I purchase future games on Stadia.... Maybe. But not games I already o

I also work at a company heavily reliant on Microsoft Office. It makes it hard to pick any OS that isn't Windows or Mac. Cloud apps like Google Docs, Hangouts, Slack etc.. were supposed to make the OS less important. It's too bad

they did what many other companies do. Use the freemium model to gain users and publicity, then try to reduce costs and convert free users to premium by destroying the free tier.

I quit dropbox when they dropped support for xfs on linux. I've been pretty happy with Google Drive with insync Linux client.

there's nothing 'lost' by supporting higher resolutions. It will render internally at (say) 4k, and upsample to 8k.

by awill 8y ago
They won't really support native 8k in any real game. They'll support 8k the way ps4 pro support 4k. Through their upscaling technique. I'm all for that. The ps5 should definitely be able to do true, real 4k, and upsample to

True. In a case this simple, you likely wouldn't have to write an RCA. However, most real life situations I've seen show that there's always room to improve. For example, how quickly did your service recover once the underlyi

sure, if your service behaved as well as possible during your dependency's outage, yes.

You can't end a 5 Whys with 'another team I depend on screwed up'. You have to own your software or service. If you depend on something, you need checks, alarms, and whenever possible the ability to handle dependency failure

One of my favourite games growing up. I was disappointed when the sequel became an Xbox exclusive in the west. I imported the Japanese copy of Shenmue II and played it on my Dreamcast. Fortunately there were English subtitles. I of course p

I'd agree with this. If they'd done this in 2012 when they were the up and coming, they might be in the lead today. I think ultimately this wasn't 'experimenting', this was Chef thinking they'd be in the lead _

This is precisely my fear. Cloudflare is using price as a selling point. For people with just a few domains, price isn't important. I have 5 domains with hover.com. I'm happy to pay a couple of bucks extra per year to know that th

I don't think Fuchsia would be used for this. Vulkan runs on Linux, Unreal/Unity run on Linux, and AMD has a good open source driver. Everything points to Linux being the right choice here.

As expected, it's running on Debian [0]. Ubuntu really messed up with their licensing, losing both Valve and Google... I'm also curious why they're not stating the CPU manufacturer. [0] https://stadia.dev/abou

This is just what Evernote did. And it was the beginning of things getting worse. I don't think I've ever seen a company improve after they degrade their free tier. It's always a sign of someone in finance trying to save a fe

Linux has high DPI fixes and moves to GTK3. Great to see my favourite text editor cares about Linux!

I would bet they're both using the same storage layer (Google Cloud Storage?)

probably because Apple doesn't have hardware acceleration for vp8. They don't want developers to use it. It'll be an inferior UX. Less battery, hotter device. It's a bit arrogant for them to compare battery life of h264

I'd also add that 2008 Google was trusted by the public a lot more than 2019 Google.

I'm using enpass. Fantastic, cheap and runs on Win/Mac/Linux and iOS/Android. Also syncs to your cloud of choice.
