I share your enthusiasm. Much of my frustration with modern electronics and home appliances stems from the fact that I have to use shitty touch screens and touch buttons.

Whatever happened to the 1.x revival project or whatever it was called? I am very fond of the aesthetics of the 1.x and 2.x series as it reminds me of classic Windows and MacOS. Is there a way to replicate the look and feel of 1.x and 2.x o

"KDE is my desktop of choice. I feel like it captures the spirit of computing in the Windows 9x era." I was trying to find the right words to describe why I prefer KDE over other DE's but this captures my feelings perfectly.

What a shitty article. No mention of the cuts to the NHS by the tories and the effect that had on its ability to serve the public but they make it seem like this is a side effect of the covid vaccines? What the actual fuck.

I'd like to know that as well. My 2016 MacBook Pro is one of the worst laptops that I've ever owned and I had to have that stupid keyboard fixed 3 times during its lifespan.

You and me both. With the exception of not having a real desktop, as that was popularized by the Mac (and later beautifully copied by Win9x), 3.x is favourite Windows UI by a long shot. It's just so clean, and professional looking. And

I remember having the exact same experience on slightly less powerful hardware with that BeOS demo. I remember throwing everything at it and it just kept on going like it was no big deal and me constantly going "wow, wow, wow" hah

Amen to that. There have been multiple times in my career where I've stopped the process the moment when a recruiter asked me to fill in a shitty looking .doc or .docx file with the same info that is in the .PDF file that's contai

I'm running the latest version of Firefox 108 that was just released on macOS and scrolling works just fine for me.

The EU government is simply laying the ground rules as to how businesses should operate inside the EU single market. They're not forcing Apple to change its business practices anywhere else in the world, as far as I understand. And App

You'll find corrupted politicians in every government in every country in the world. And yes, the EU has the strongest consumer protection laws anywhere in the west.

No kidding. If my business had lost billions of dollars belonging to other people, I would only be talking to a small army of lawyers. This guy acted like he had a deathwish.

Al Strobel (aka Mike) also passed away a couple of weeks ago.

A) The EU is democratic, and B) your second point is also factually incorrect. Good try, though, I guess.

It has been fascinating to watch the progress being made on this in the past few months. Makes me wish I had continued studying Computer Science at uni...

Do they really have to give a name to every new hardware and software feature they come up with? Especially when the feature in question is just karaoke.

I guess that's because Apple is one of the few (for now) manufacturers that solder their SSDs to the motherboard.

According to the guy behind Asahi Linux, there was no misreporting. It was an actual bug and those excessive write operations happened. https://twitter.com/marcan42/status/1396374313591140357?ref_... While I don&#

Resident Evil Village recently came out and it performs surprisingly well even on the low end MacBook Air M1 with only 7 GPU cores. What's even more impressive is that the game is playable (low gfx settings, 30fps) when running that ma

One of my banks in Portugal charges €1,7 flat for any instant transfer also. It's infuriating to know that the tech is there but banks are just being banks.

Again, not the same thing. British people didn't lose it. Nobody took it away against the public's will. They voted in favour of getting rid of it.

The difference here is that people from the UK voted for losing the right to renew their .eu domains.
