If we were to draw a line in the sand between "impossible to choose" and "possible to choose" I think generally moving is possible. There could be a million reasons why you'd prefer not to (huge risks, desires to pu

Presumably this isn't about things people are stuck with (skin color, etc.) but things they choose (laws, etc.) and while discriminating on the former should be illegal, discriminating on the latter generally shouldn't be. Althoug

The Wikipedia article on this accent touches on this briefly and calls it "possible" [0] while discussing other topics in much more depth. [0] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid-Atlantic_accent

This is very off-topic and for that I apologize, but can anyone shed some light on why so many texts of this era use 2 backticks/graves as a left double quote and 2 apostrophes (neutral single quotes) as a double right quote? I could u

Can you offer some examples? I just went to each site, and compared their home page, product listing table, and product page. They are so comparable in design/UI (to the point that it feels like any time one makes any change, the other

I can just imagine someone coming up with the infinity symbol, and arguing (as we are here) about whether a circle represents the idea. No, not quite; it needs something more... another circle should suffice, and connect them seamlessly. Ye

That makes way more sense than the simple Chromecast I thought we were talking about. Thanks!

I know almost nothing about Android app development and especially disassembly (if that's even the correct term): Is it possible to modify an apk to eliminate this flag anywhere it's set? I assume in the case of apps trying to pro

I'm not sure, but I feel like if a feature for blind people couldn't be turned on blindly, that would be problematic.

My Pixel 6 Pro doesn't seem to have this. I use Wireguard, and hotspot traffic goes directly to cellular data, not via VPN.

True, but dealing with the consequences of laggy response even in this case does not result in taking your eyes off the road. Rather, the troubleshooting feedback loop can happen entirely using your hand and ears. When using a touch screen,

I am on the fence as to whether I agree with you, but I'll embellish a certain aspect: these folks keep citing how the number of DNS lookups (what pihole reports/blocks) is extraordinary, exceeding all other vendors they use, whic

That's only if your computer is configured to automatically run whatever autorun.ini specifies, which it really should not be.

You turn the physical dial, and regardless of the outcome, you know that your input was received by the HCI, so you don't need to wonder if you should try again. If it worked, great; if not, oh well; no need to look at it and try again

It'll be interesting to see how Android Auto / Apple Car Play adopt physical controls, if at all. I guess at a basic level a rotary encoder could emulate a "tab" key when rotated and an "enter" key when pushed
