Are you trying to say that literally every female streamer on Twitch is "commoditizing [their] sexuality?"

https://www.tonymacx86.com used to be the go-to but like I said in my original comment I haven't Hackintosh'd since Snow Leopard so that may well be not the case anymore.

Because keeping a Hackintosh up and running is a hobby. It requires maintenance. macOS point release comes out? Better hit the forums/subreddits and start looking for driver compatibility/kexts/other hacks etc. Hackintoshes

Maybe I'm just easily impressed but the idea of a 17 year old who skipped three grades and is already a third-year university student who was talented enough to catch Scott's attention and then address a technically challenging pr

Contextually I wouldn't think so, his death was an accident caused by what ended up being deemed really poor design of the shift interface of his vehicle; the guilt implication from the author sounds more like maybe drugs or falling in

FWIW You can review the methodology that they use here: https://www.geekbench.com/doc/geekbench4-cpu-workloads.pdf They don't provide source though. That's a detriment. It would be nice if their benchmarks we

It's true that embedded software doesn't need to be written in C but if you're distributing a _library_ that's aimed at embedded systems then C is still a terrific choice for a ton of reasons. The goal of a library sho

That's covered in the article. > And for some, the quest has proven fatal. At least four people are believed to have died in accidents while searching. This led some to call for Fenn to end the hunt. He hasn’t, but he has added a fe

I was more complaining about the NY Times headline, I'm sympathetic to the idea of wanting the headlines here to match closely to the article itself. Some of the other folks here have commented with good ideas.

This headline could not be more uninformative if it tried unless it was totally off topic. Like probably a lot of people here, I read the headline and said to myself "no shit, of course diet matters" but then I read the article an

It's illegal for foreign nationals to make direct or indirect contributions to US politics. So the line that has to be drawn is one connecting that law to the CA scandal and its alleged use to drive the strategies of the Trump campaign

The difference is that this is a highly subjective "problem". I actually love the touch bar. I'm not in love with esc and f-keys not being physical but lots of the other stuff it does is pretty great. Like, the brightness and

Definitely agree with this. The Gradle lifecycle and the difference between Task Execution and Build Configuration is not intuitive at all. Neither is the fact that when you just stick a `<<` or `doLast()` in there without understan

Please don't say that nobody uses Gradle outside of Android devs. We're a shop that definitely does zero Android development and we still use Gradle, the fact that people assume Gradle <-> Anroid Dev is already a huge pain p

The integration with IDEA and Eclipse for Gradle is actually quite good, the only downside is that it's "one-way". That is to say that you can't use the IDE's GUI to configure your build. Gradle enables this as a fi

I think he was also dressed and on the ice during practice when Varlamov was handling his civil trial and Pickard was sick, since he would have dressed as the backup goalie, but Pickard ended up being healthy enough to play.

by dljsjr 9y ago
My understanding of the emergency backup rule is that: each team dresses two goalies, and if both of them are unable to play then the team has the right to dress "any available goalkeeper" in the area. The de facto way this works

That's not 100% true as of the Godot 3.0 release, though. They are trying to make PBR 3D a 1st class citizen of the engine and they're doing a very good job.

The last few XPRIZE announcements have been really confusing to me. I don't take any issue with the sentiment; they want to advance specifically commercial domains by incentivizing them to accomplish moonshots. The problem I have is th

Monitors aren't often calibrated from the factory or they are calibrated to be "subjectively" nicer looking, e.g. high contrast and slightly cool white balance to account for show-room floors. In addition to that the built-in

It's not about the signal it's about the physical display. Displays aren't calibrated at the factory. To use an LED-backlit display as an example, not every single LED in the world is created equally. Not every LED is going t
