I don't see this doing much unless everyone stops at about the same time. The largest shareholders have a disproportionate amount of power to influence the direction of most companies.

Ideally, winget would be the way to go, but I haven't had good luck with it. There are a number of limitations and it doesn't feel like a polished and curated repo. It just feels like a wrapper around chocolatey, which has its own

It's my understanding that Steam does not really do exclusivity deals, outside of games they self-publish, which is why I asked the question. I wasn't sure if I was wrong on that point. I've read some blog posts by indie deve

Sorry, I don't have the answer to this question, and I'm not sure why you are asking me.

What games have exclusive contracts with Valve, other than those published by Valve?

The maintainers of foobar have always been very opinionated, for better or worse. I recall it pushed away a chunk of the community at least once in the past. It's just one of those types of projects.

I feel like the language is intentionally vague and intended to link the voltage issue with the oxidization issue. However, I would not feel comfortable knowing my chip may randomly become unstable way before the expected end of life.

In theory, you have a point. However, in practice it doesn't matter. It is extremely unlikely that the code is written in a way where random, unknown implementations are being passed around and called.

I'm a bit surprised by the comments here. Isn't this just duck typing, which has been a thing in dynamic languages for a very long time? The supposed risks of breaking the contract by changing the class ring hollow to me. The impl

Based on what I know about corporations, it's entirely plausible that the folks posting the information don't actually have access to the communication channels you are referring to. I don't even know how I would issue an off

I think the shale revolution probably changed the calculus. It removed the "dependency on foreign oil" argument from the debate completely in the U.S. (though you still hear it mentioned from time to time without merit). It also r

When there are dozens of similar products, one bad review may be all it takes. Why would you choose the one out of 12 that has a chance of a dirty diaper when they are all in the same price range?

It's also entirely possible that Amazon does handle verification, but they have set their operator metrics so high, the operators are forced to speed through the process. We see this in other areas of logistics as well - delivery peopl

I had one of their earlier models. It wasn't a great phone and the software had some issues. But I suppose it was plenty small. I think I stopped using it because the carrier I switched to didn't support it. I wanted to keep it as

My experience on fastmail doesn't align with yours. While spam has slightly increased over the years, I attribute that to just using my email more often. It's very rare that I get spam in my actual inbox. In fact, my experience is

Who at Boeing decides if the deal should be accepted? Unlike a personal plea, there doesn't seem to be any interests that directly impact the board or the c-suite beyond some loss in share value.

Writing GUI apps is painful everywhere, and has been for years. I remember the half-baked transition from Windows Forms to WPF, which was then taken-over by the Windows Phone initiative, which was also extremely painful and half-baked. Ther

This feels a bit like blaming the victim. There are any number of things that can go wrong which may or may not be under your control. Specifically, the Great Lakes are more like seas than lakes. They have rip currents that can unexpectedly

I'm not sure, but I'm also not sure there's a guarantee that my self-hosted password vault won't die in the middle of a busy day.

If you are using a device that previously accessed your vault, it will be cached and accessible. It just won't sync until you regain network connectivity.

The announcement mentions continued innovation. Other than their recently added AI DJ, which is basically just a slightly tuned shuffle algorithm, I'm not seeing it. On the contrary, Spotify lacks a lot of features that were in applica

The "once configured" is the problem for me. I would rather be working on the task, not the tool. And at this point in my life, my "tinkering" time is done in other areas.

Based on the comments, I guess I should clarify. Yes, I can plug my monitors in and log into my system. However, it is a crap shoot that an application will 1. choose the correct monitor / remember the chosen monitor after reboot 2. re
