I think quick cameos are really doable right now. Leia was fin in Rogue One, but the more Tarkin appeared on screen, the more "off" he felt to me. The animators definitely made it across uncanny valley and most of the way up the o

I find myself doing most of my hobby programming in C. I think it kind of evokes the same thing other hobbyists(like wood working) get by building something from scratch even though there are easier ways to get close to the same end result.

Even if Amazon doesn't store all audio by default now, I would if it could become a thing(if it's not already) for law enforcement to basically get a warrant for Amazon(and Google and everyone else who gets into this space) to sto

I think Darktable fits the mold of a lot of other good free software in that it's well features and probably does what you need it too, but the proprietary equivalent(Lightroom in this case) is a more polished and easier to jump into,

HandBrake is one of those pieces of software that I've never even had to consider looking around to find something slightly better, it's always done what its supposed to with no fuss. A while back I wanted to rip a DVD my kids got

As a potential backdoor with access to a computer with compromising the OS, how much is ME neutralized by just not using the integrated NIC and instead using a PCI-E or USB NIC?

I stay away from third party sellers on Amazon these days as much as possible(as in I'll look elsewhere and only come back to them if they're the only viable option) and Amazon had been getting a lot closer to regular retail for s

They use LSO around here for same day and it's been pretty unreliable. On the bright side I've gotten a few months of prime and about $100 in credit back.

My last hurdle to switch to Mac is finally gone. EDIT: I guess this is for iOS, so the joke is ruined.

I had it installed and running in a couple of minutes. The wait is what I remember being the worst on Windows. apt was quick and painless though.

I know that there's a lot of comments about this just being a rename of Xamarin Studio, but hopefully this is pointer in the direction Microsoft may go in eventually joining the two IDEs and in a major version or two we might actually

sudo apt install mssql-server felt really weird. Oddly a much nicer install process than the last time I installed MSSQL server on Windows(which was admittedly a log time ago, and it could be better now).

I really hate seeing posts on Chromebook forums where some asks of they can do 'X' on a Chromebook and the answer is "Yes" but then goes on the mention crouton. It's like going on a Mac forum and saying that yes you

Neat to see a Commodore comeback, that's actually doing the retro C64 thing and not just slapping Commodore logos on new computers or phones. I supposed the Amiga rights are too much of a mess to hope for much movement there.

Only 11 years. It seems like it was older. I guess it seems like such an idea of the late 90's internet, I just associate it with that era.

I used NeoOffice a long time ago when OpenOffice required X11 on OS X. Now that LibreOffice works natively on OS X, what does NeoOffice offer now? Is it like Camino was to Firefox?

I'll only buy DRM content as long as I can easily remove it, and right now the only DRM content I regularly buy is books mostly from Google and Amazon. The first thing i strip the DRM and archive it.

My kids(8 and 6) each have a 2DS and we have Wii and Mario and Zelda are among their favorites. Many of these are re-releases of old Nintendo games on either the virtual console or things like Mario 64 DS or Ocarina of Time for the 3DS, but

I've gotten to the point where I don't care if Netflix or Hulu get an exclusive for series or movies, but it really annoys me when Amazon does. Exclusives are a way for them to sell subscriptions and I get that. For Netflix and Hu

While HTML was the first kind of code I ever wrote, I never felt like I was doing much more than I was when I typed up something in Microsoft Works. It wasn't until I used VB when I was 13 or 14 that it hit me that I could actually mak

I hope they remember to write an algorithm so that when approaching a hill and there are two lanes each direction, two trucks will pull up beside each and race up the hill each at 55MPH despite the speed limit being 70MPH.
