Screen tearing is, iirc from the gpu buffer only partially overwritten with the next frame when it's sent to the screen.

Using this looks like a great way to end up stuffed into a suitcase in the bottom of a lake. Part of the appeal of Uber or Lyft is that they ostensibly conduct background checks of some sort to weed out the psychopaths.

I keep trying to go back to Firefox but it's so slow and janky compared to chrome (even with electrolysis enabled) I switch back within a day. Will probably see if there are any good chromium builds out there though.

They all already have bug reports that have either been open for multiple years or were closed without actually fixing the issue which is why I suspect this may be a problem with internal politics or misguided design philosophy.

Firefox still suffers from a lot of minor quality of life issues compared to other browsers, I don't know if it's neglect or weird internal politics but they add up to making firefox less attractive than the competition. A few off

If you're just doing a google search then yeah it's reasonable. It's less so when you're a professional who's supposed to be an expert on these things. If you can't spend more than 5 seconds double checking the

looked at the report to see if they'd reviewed torguard and apparently they... don't realize it's a VPN service and think it's related to the onion router. Kinda undermines they're credibility a bit if they can'

It's just ConEmu packaged with some additional utilities like clink and a custom launcher. Actually quite nice since you can update to the latest version of ConEmu with no issues.

I agree that free trade is generally a good thing but the TPP had too many serious problems to make up for that.

People are saying this is about race and while I do think that's a big part of it, making it the whole story is dangerously counterproductive. The Clinton camp basically offered nothing to working class people. Working class people of

Plants generally aren't grouped with green algae despite them having evolved from a common ancestor. I guess it's a bit like the crustacean/insect division, so maybe I was being a bit too facetious.

Some are, some aren't. Upon further research it does appear the type used in this algal flour are related to plants but many algae species aren't closely related to plants at all. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

I like Atom but I ditched it in favor of Visual Studio Code because it has per-project settings, something Atom still lacks. The only thing I really miss is the ternjs extension. Typescript's intellisense is nice but requires quite a b
