I'm not the person who suggested it, but I wouldn't mind having it fill my (wide)screen when watching. That said, I understand that some film/tv uses the frame very precisely, however I'm not sure that these two particul

I own a modular synth so I always figured I'd have no reason to play this game since I could just use my synth (and one of the main reasons I like it is the physicality of it). But I recently started getting into some Zachtronics games

A simple DIY transform is shown later in the article, though the first pic in the article shows it without the transformer.

Somewhat relatedly, IKEA used to sell a RAST nightstand that made for a good cheap modular synth case. https://www.synthtopia.com/content/2015/07/06/how-to-make-a-... Sadly they stopped selling these a f

The author is a professional writer, so depending on what specific writing tasks they're doing, they may be able to do portions of their job almost automatically, devoting far less than full attention to their work. (I know a few write

Is there a meaningful metric that changes between generations, that could alternatively be used, perhaps by consumers in spite of marketing's desires?

While they can both be used for dashboard, they seem to be quite different. From what I can tell, Superset is a platform while Tabler is a html/css framework. If I'm understanding it correctly... Superset integrates with a databas

re: "only real factor"... Among other differences between the SE and the Mini, the Mini doesn't have touch ID button, does it? The article mentions "I have already argued in the past that I prefer this iPhone model over

I'm not sure if this is what you were getting at with your last paragraph or not, but I wouldn't be surprised if people who get motion sickness from VR are less likely to want to be VR devs. And that would likely influence the typ

Yes, you can hit ctrl-f again, but there isn't an obvious way to know how far down the search will work, due to the fact that there aren't pages, just progressive loading. So it effectively makes the native search useless.

Not only that but there seems to be a MUCH worse signal-to-noise ratio in every discord I've ever seen (when compared to forums), due to the more chat-like nature of the platform.

Not being able to use the native browser find in page in a Discourse forum is my single biggest complaint about my otherwise glowing experience with the platform. I wouldn't mind it as much if it at least tried to emulate the typical n

Who posted it doesn't really matter when the title has been changed this much. The title being so drastically editorialized is the real issue.

I'm not the person you asked, but in my case it's mostly a "if it's not broke, don't fix it" situation. I don't need neovim since vim is just fine for me. There are a few neovim-only plugins I wouldn'

Anything as complex as an operating system is going to have far too many features for them ALL to be easily discoverable. For something that complex, you want the most fundamental features and the most-used features to be easily discoverabl

Side note: What an odd webpage style. Makes some things look like they're markdown, but they're actually added with css ::before and ::after. Plus I found the link style very distracting and unnecessary (since browsers already hav

If the prank was intentionally designed to point that out, then sure, I might agree. But the article does not make it sound that way.

And yet they _did_ blame the individual, by saying "the individual responsible for this regrettable act is no longer with the company." This is why I'm surprised they hired him. My surprise that they hired him has nothing to

I'm surprised they hired him after that. If it was a big enough deal that they had to make a statement saying he was no longer with the company, why would they hire him after that?

Rolling your own has some benefits, though. Such as not being as big a target as a provider that services many sites, and being more in control of the auth data, and not being reliant on a service that's beyond your control to not sudd
