Worse, when Microsoft made this change, One Drive actually deleted almost a terabyte of files from my Mac. Uninstalled, restored from a recent backup, and haven't used it, or any other cloud sync application, since.

I'm the same way except with command prompts. So long as I have a decent shell (bash and PowerShell are both good enough) with the ability to open files and some reasonable form of tab completion, I mostly only open up Windows File Exp

F5LOAD doesn't look entirely unlike RELOAD if you squint? The real WTF is who thought putting "close window/tab" and "exit browser" on adjacent keys was ever a good idea.

On a related note, I've half-seriously considered wiring up a switch pedal[1] as a modifier key in Emacs through MIDI. Where I really want chording to be universally available, though, is in video games when playing cross-input games o

I agree about Winndows, but increasingly feel the same way about macOS. As for Linux, hard disagree, but only because I'm able to fix most anything that annoys me myself with enough elbow grease (same goes for Windows and macOS) except

Is there a reason you couldn't use the USB audio and MIDI gadget drivers to pass through FireWire audio interfaces as class-compliant USB devices? You could even use a virtual MIDI interface as a convenient way to control features beyo

It's times like these when my bag of at least one of nearly every dongle Apple has ever made comes in handy (FW800 ↔ TB2 + TB2 ↔ TB3 in this case).

I was just going to say, jq is like sed in that I only use 1% of it 99% of the time, but unlike sed in that I'm not aware of any clearly better if less ubiquitous alternatives to the 1% (e.g., Perl or ripgrep for simple regex substitut

Aside from the GPU mess, the 2013 was a nice machine, basically a proto-Mac Studio. Aside from software, the only thing that pushed me off my D300/64GB/12-core as an everyday desktop + front-end machine is the fact that there&#x27

You can build single-file executables for .NET 4, and I do, but there's no static linking, so you need to restrict yourself to assemblies that ship with the framework and whatever other prerequisites you're willing to install or a

Funny you mention that. I had to get special permission to use my HP-15C on a "calculators allowed" exam in a first-year "calculus for non majors" course, and had to show the instructor how to reset its memory. Which I f

Not really. An independent Mac company with 8% of Apple's sales would still be the #3 computer manufacturer behind Dell and HP, and Mac gross margins could easily support significantly larger investments in OS development if Apple chos

What does this bill have to do with age verification? It legally mandates the existence of a required "age" field in user account records, a user interface to populate it during account setup, a mechanism for service providers to

Doubtful it's healthcare, as unlike other benefits like stock options, consulting firms will have substantially similar healthcare costs that will be reflected in their fees.

Possibly a legal reason: the product is a headphone that outputs audio, not a DAC that outputs an electrical signal, so unless the drivers have meaningful ultrasonic frequency response, claiming high sample rate support is arguably false ad

That's a gross exaggeration. Some people just want to play the game, but lack motor skills commensurate with their other abilities. Are players who take advantage of developer-supplied aim assist and other assistive technologies "

I find the idea of a thinking screwdriver annoying. Thinking things are difficult to reason about, and tools that are difficult to reason about are frustrating to use.

I'd go further and say that checks on police and intelligence agencies exist to protect both the innocent and the guilty from abuse of power. If I'm doing something wrong, the onus is on the government to prove this within the r

Protecting the economic interests of the US and allies by defending commercial shipping is well within the remit of the US Navy. This is a risk management decision with a side of optics, not one of scope.

The access levels are just for editing stacks, no different than editing other files on a local PC, sort of like protection in an Excel spreadsheet. Interacting with network stacks via Apple Events and file sharing supported users and passw

I'd guess this is because it only works in ssh PTY sessions. So it would have no effect on tunneling or when piping arbitrary data through ssh to a non-interactive remote command (unless you use the -t switch to force PTY allocation ev
