This is great. It's the first time I've seen it promoted without a 20% pay cut at the same time.

To be fair it's just as bad on Monday to Friday as well at least in the three local councils I've had to try and contact.

We always have the choice. I've quit more than one job and divorced someone.

That was the usual loss vector when I was in the defence sector as well.

Embedded safari is subject to the same controls. I’ve tested it. Also you can open specific links in a browser instead of an app easily. Just hold finger on the link.

This. Also it doesn’t absolutely shag your battery on any device.

Simply because it abstracts away all of the problems I don’t want to care about and enables all the solutions I do care about at the same time. And most importantly it just works.

Not scared of those extensions. The malicious web sites that force you to install malicious extensions are the problem. The average user isn’t immune to those problems. I’ve cleaned out enough extension infested chrome browsers in my time…

This is selection bias. Clearly you’ve never met an average computer user then. Malicious web pages force extensions on you which users do install.

It also prevents the 90% case of nasty page replacement plugins and data theft extensions which are extremely common on other platforms.

One reason I choose Apple is because of this. I know there is one possible egress browser on the platform which goes through the same control channels as anything else whether it’s embedded in an app or standalone. The moment it’s open the

Was Coldfire + IAR. The design was driven entirely by idiocy and showboating. I was hired just to limp it along a bit further while they spun a new board and software as the MCU was obsolete anyway.

Of all the things I've seen in my time writing software I can qualify that some of the most fucked up things involved state machines. The worst of which was a 200 state hand written one in C for an embedded measurement system. There wa

So much this. Lost a couple of friends to it. Their entire life is about it. They forgot all the other good things they were and did.

Yeah I worked for years in an office where the toilets barely worked and no one knew how to shit properly. It’s not fun. Also everyone smoked so you couldn’t touch anything because it stank.

I think you’d need a lawyer to answer that question. Which in itself is a problem. The nature of using this tool could hang you in theory more than if you didn’t use it.

Lots of good stuff out there with better content. Hyper Light Drifter for example. That’s not Nintendo specific. Also Homeworld Mobile.

It’s a good point. I was trained on a lot of copyright novels. However I don’t quote verbatim which is what this tool has been doing.

This pisses me off. Nike I am looking at you. The Downshifter 9's were perfect. Everything else since is garbage or looks like I've got a pumpkin on an acid trip stuck to my feet.

Certainly not saying it's not successful for its time. But this is about the future and the whole dedicated device model and expensive games are rapidly becoming a dead end. The tablet and phone gaming market has a lot of overlap now a

They have Switch Lite which can't connect to a TV. Not only that it'd be split screen which isn't much fun. It wasn't back in the 90s either.

I don't disagree with that. The problem is evolving it into a market saturated with general purpose devices and subscription services. That's something that Sony and Nintendo shrugged off. Lets throw this on the table: I actually

Animal Crossing is terribly addictive so I certainly wouldn't sell it to yourself on that basis. What I've found is when they start exploring "free" things, it's time to put the thing away. They are bored and don&#x

It was a worthy rewrite. There is nothing else out there that works properly online, offline, collaboratively, you actually get to retain the actual document files and costs nothing.

Nintendo are in a sticky situation. They are a poor value proposition these days. My kids quickly lost interest in their Switches when they saw Mario Kart prices and to play each other they would have to buy three copies. At best they get u

That reminds me of a thread I saw on an Internet forum a few years ago about some guy suggesting powering his fridge with a bicycle during a power outage. Turns out this is an extremely complicated problem which is probably best solved by i

I don't think it was even that. It was massive marketing and hype which drove docker adoption. The engineering concerns and the user experience were both negatives because they actually added a considerable cost and friction to the exp

This. You need a last resort security control against stuff like this anyway. Even an automation failure or misunderstanding of a ruleset can leave you exposed. Security must be layered.
