These all sound like convenience factors. I don't see why my identity with one provider has to be tied with my identity from another provider at all. Having a crypto wallet (for this purpose) is just certificates with extra steps (quit

What's wrong with a username and password?

I was not accusing you of ill behaviour. That's why I said "good." I thought you were making a subtle joke and it generated a lot of discussion which is what good trolls do. I was trying to be friendly because the alternative

I'm giving Haxe a try for that reason. It's not python however.

Emulation is also legit (as long as you use genuine cartridges)

I had a scanner that became much more stable running on a Mac OS 9 machine than a Windows machine simply because the scanning software could "hang" the mac and monopolize the SCSI port with exact timing.

my go-to writing system was a repaired (got two broken ones for free, cobbled together 1 working one) 800MHz Celeron Sony VAIO with an 800x600 LCD, xubuntu, and abiword. The thing /couldn't/ connect to the internet (required

It's supposed to only happen when you're running from them (though I think it shouldn't happen then either), but the reality is they will do it if they feel like it. The only thing stopping them is physics. Police are general

They already can. Police will simply crash your car if they feel like it by using their car.

It might not, but the behaviour would be the same, so the effect is achieved.

Why would you not want the additional protection if you have to pick a colour to make the room anyways?

Anything UV sensitive is usually done in a yellow room, so that's probably it. I know this is exactly the case for PCB manufacture and printing press plate making to lessen accidental exposure, so it's exactly like a red safelight

Could this have anything to do with how FairPlay DRM was implemented on iTunes Store purchased tracks back when it existed?

There's pretty much nowhere to host your repo now that bitbucket gave up (and outright /deleted/ all hg repos which was criminal, but that's besides the point) The big three I know of (github, gitlab, bitbucket) are all

I'm not sure what particularly you mean about this article since it seems a lot easier than webdev to me. Javascript devops and Webpack in particular drive me up the wall. Qt is usually click-button-receive-EXE (when using an IDE, othe

You might've called "OS 7" growing up if your first Macintosh ran "Mac OS" 7.6 or later.

Unfortunately doing anything other than 35mm brings a massive jump in price, so I think it's here to stay for a long time. I loved doing medium format/120, but it's absolutely cost prohibitive. Minilabs scanning before it&#x2

I am trying to scan usually about 40 negatives at one time so I may be hitting every one of it's weak points in one go.

"get a new scanner" doesn't work when no currently manufactured scanners have the same features that some of the old ones did. In particular, anything involving film scanning seems to involve painful use of film holders when

Every time I've tried it it's been an absolutely hellish experience. It abstracts too much of what the scanner driver is doing. I don't know what units it's doing things in. It snaps input numbers to the nearest number t

(clicks link) time to get /sad/ about being a SEGA fan again. More seriously I wish some of the old consoles were officially opened because the absolute install base of PS1 and NES compatible hardware must be insane. Indie NES gam

I say KDE is the best desktop if they could just get their shit together and debug it on all hardware configurations. It's absolutely miles ahead of Windows in features, however, as a power user I can fix it if it gets wonky, but a reg

I feel like those definitely were a thing because they wanted you to be able to upgrade the internal storage (unlike iPhone), but not read it on a computer (like iPhone). They could've changed the public's perception on that easil

Okay, but to be fair I immediately recognised the "ready" signal 0xAA or 0x55 as "oh, it just toggles the bit every clock. That sounds oddly useful. You can probably sync a clock or something on that." I've also run

There are plenty of cities worldwide where building up has worked. Regardless, if buying a town home or single-family has become out of reach, it's far better to have /something/ to live in rather than be forced to fight the

Those non-advantageous traits may have no bearing on the ability to do the job though, only the ability to take the test. This is precisely why it's illegal.

School should be made later. I suffered even with switching because no matter what part of the year we were in school was scheduled to wake me up in the dark.

I mean it used to be that you could design the best page around and the AMP version would still get a higher search ranking so that's why. Thankfully not true anymore?
