I was just about to say that. There's an amazing video by Posy documenting mouse cursor history, and even provides his own cursor pack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YThelfB2fvg http://www.michieldb.nl&#x2

I can't take a crypto-shilling browser seriously. They lost all respect from me the day they added that feature.

I sincerely doubt it's the devs coming up with these ideas and pitching them to management.

Oh wow I did not know this. Are there any other services that have a fairer model? If not, why is the EU singling out Spotify?

First time I've heard of this. It's an eye-opener. It also makes me even more cynical.

Horrible journalism and simple rage-bait. I wonder if anyone will update these articles or maybe even issue an apology for slander now that they know what was the cause.

The only good use cases for web components that I see is to use them for embedding encapsulated 3rd party widgets to prevent style contamination, kinda like iframes. Composing them is absolutely horrid, as is sharing data between them.

You can disable mouse acceleration in the regular system settings in the latest MacOS. Also I'm not paying to read a ranked list article on Medium.

"The Flame of the West", eh? Cool logo and branding, but also kinda creepy.

I really don't understand why HFP is still the industry standard. Even devices within the same ecosystem, like MacBook / iPhone / AirPods seems to use it based on the audio quality. Or maybe it's AVRCP. Sounds horrible e

Apple maps is absolutely horrendous in Croatia. Missing streets, wrong street numbers, wrong directions, and let's not even get into how many POIs and retail are missing. Bad satellite images, missing street view and 3d views are just

Bitlocker is Microsoft's closed-source product. How can you be sure it doesn't have backdoors?

Yeah, the guy said back in 2021 that they'll make lvl 5 (LOL) autonomous robo taxis by the end of 2023. And the government bought the techbro investor-speak and gave an already shady company 180m € of taxpayers money. https:/&#x2
