It will be nice if Firefox restores support for high-quality scaling. transform(scale) used to work well, then for a long time it produced horribly pixelated text. They improved it a few months back, but it's still noticeably pixelated

Sadly, our green wave is synchronized with a 50 mph speed, but the posted (and reasonable) limit is 35 mph.

Sorry to hear - it's really taken them a long time to do this, but I'm pleased with the results. I've been using Stylish + Slack Dark - have you tried that? https://userstyles.org/styles/160324/slack

Indeed, and I'm glad I saw the discussion and switched to Imagus and then Hover Zoom+, but if I had missed discussion of Hover Zoom's spyware activity I would have kept using it. We need better mechanisms of keeping people constan

I used VLC for many years without issue, but eventually it became unstable on my system and then wouldn't even launch, even after a fresh re-install. So to share something with others who may be looking for an alternative, MPC-BE with

I used Pidgin for years, but while it may be actively developed it has been stagnant. It's ugly and very difficult to customize to make it less so, and Unicode has always been broken (at least on Windows). Compared to mobile or even we

Thanks for sharing! I did not know about this. I use Stylus and dark themes for many sites, but this will be great for random sites. https://add0n.com/stylus.html

It's readable for some subset of people, but on a 32" monitor it's worthless - I tried to read it, but just abandoned it in frustration.

I'm seeing a lot of criticism of Atom's speed and responsiveness, and not much support. I wonder how many of these people are actually using it, and what computers they are using it on? I tried Atom early, and repeatedly every mon

I really hope Google fixes Android's broken security model. As the owner & user of an Android device, I should be able to configure feature access on a per-app basis. It's ridiculous that you have to either grant an app all requested ac

Android is in serious need of better user control over app permissions. Apps should have their permissions in two groups: * Must-have: the app will not work without these (e.g. camera access for a picture-taking app) * Optional: some featur

It's extremely disappointing that the majority of (or is it all?) Android tablets do not have screens with a 4:3 aspect ratio. 16:10 is awkward and silly; 16:9 is something I won't even bother trying.

I have to wonder if perhaps they perceive that with the wide income disparity in India, there's not a sufficiently large market for $200-$500 devices. Let's say they can sell 15,000 at $500 each. Maybe they think that many of those buyers h

While praising IE, let us not forget that MS only innovated enough to displace other web browsers, leveraging its Windows near-monopoly to saturate the market with IE. Dominance achieved, competitors obliterated, MS was content to let the w

I haven't seen the Yamakasi's or the Achieva Shimian's in person, but I have a Crossover 27Q and the monitor housing is sturdy metal and the stand is sturdy as well. Still overall very lightweight.

The dearth of 16:10 monitors available bothers me, but if you're going from 1920x1200 (or less) to 2560x1440, you're still gaining vertical space - you're just gaining more horizontal space. I replaced my 24" 1920x1200 with a Crossover 27Q

I've got a 27Q and it is excellent. The housing is metal, the stand is solid (if lacking in adjustment, but other models offer more adjustment - I replaced it with an Ergotron MX arm). It's very basic - just a DVI port. Crossover has multip

I have long felt similarly to you (minus the "no glare" part), but I bought a Crossover 27Q and have been thrilled by it. I spent $800 on a high-quality 24" 1920x1200 BenQ about 5 years ago, and now it's playing 2nd fiddle to my 27". As a p
