paying a subscription for a simple markdown app seems ridiculous.

Can't answer that question, but I use Mac and Linux, and Sublime being cross platform is a huge win for me. If you're all in on Mac, you should look at Nova, as it is beautifully designed, and you often can't beat apps that a

How does purchasing work? How can you purchase from Affinity directly, and get the iPad version. How are they getting around Apple's restrictions?

Subscription? No way I'm buying that. Why can't it just connect to an existing cloud storage (dropbox, Drive, iCloud). It's so ridiculous that every company wants to offer their own, highly targeted sync option.

exactly. vp9 isn't actually that good. It's clearly worse than hevc. AV1 is better, but there's limited hardware encoding/decoding support. The result is exactly as expected.

If you're referring to my comment, I'm not comparing the 8cx gen 3 to 8cx gen1, I'm comparing 8cx gen 3 (this desktop/laptop chip) to 8 gen 1 (QCOMM's flagship phone SoC). As I said in my comment, QCOMM's namin

The difference here is that the M1 in the M1 mac mini is faster than Apple's phone SoC (the A16). The Qualcomm 8cx gen 3 (what a terrible name) in this machine is NOT faster than even Qualcomm's phone SoC (the 8 gen 1), let alone

my guess is Google has been working on this for years, and just needs to ship something.

When did it become acceptable for the official installation method to be running a random script on your server? No one should be running that without personally verifying each line. What if I want to uninstall it? (I haven’t looked at this

What’s the best cross platform solution? I use iOS, Max and Linux. Is there a good cross platform app, or maybe native apps in each with central sync?

Proton isn’t perfect, and works much better on Windows Vulkan games vs Windows DirectX. So even windows developers are choosing vulkan just to ensure better compatibility.

and enormous disadvantages. Like costing hundreds of millions of dollars to build, and on top of that, spending hundreds of millions in payouts to studios to port their games. The hubris to go ahead with something like this....

Probably the reason they had to give refunds, or they'd get sued, and this would be evidence #1 against Google

They should have promised these refunds at launch: "We're launching Stadia. if it were to shut down in less than X years, you will get a refund" Ironically, had they done this, they would have seen more adoption from the skep

This is terrible. I'll read tech reviews elsewhere now. Why do these companies feel like they want to be tech companies. The Verge have always been trying to act like they're innovating their tech stack. They're not a tech co

>>RISC-V is massively simpler (and smaller silicon and lower energy use) for the same performance. Per my understanding RISC-V has nothing even close performance-wise to Arm's high-end stuff. So isn't it apples to oranges?

your pricing doesn't make sense. $500/mo for unlimited everything? What happens if a company scales to the size of the amazon.com ?

Yep. I switched to Sublime Merge. Very reasonably priced, especially when bundled with Sublime Text.
