In current times with digital drivers, enormous TVs, triple-buffering, and wireless controllers, I very much agree. Would you know what contributed to the ItD latency discrepancy back in 2004? I would imagine a CRT TV vs a monitor to have m

You definitely can tag bookmarks in Firefox, and typing the tag will bring up that item. Adding a tag to bookmark: https://i.imgur.com/iVElOWb.png Searching by tag: https://i.imgur.com/e3UmQDG.png I don&#x2

Hmm, you're correct actually. Any downloaded code is prohibited. I thought it was only JIT due to my background with native apps, my bad.

by kroltan 6y ago
Conceptually, yeah, it's not required. But in practice there are a whole lot of websites that make heavy (HEAVY) use of JS, and performance would not be acceptable for a lot of users. I'm not saying those websites are correct in d

Firefox on iOS is just Safari with different chrome (oh how ironic a word, but I mean the browser UI) since Apple doesn't allow third parties to JIT (which is essentially required for JS, so everyone uses iOS' builtin webview)

Here in Florianópolis PicPay is absolutely unheard of. I know it by name but have never used or heard about anyone using it.

There is no equivalent in Brazil yet, not with any significant market share. The closest thing we have is Nubank, which is a mobile-only bank, but even that is not nearly as universal as WhatsApp. Essentially everyone with a phone number us

I read the whole documentation and I have absolutely no idea what this is, besides something about CSS? The best information there is is by going to the last two tabs in its Theme Builder, which makes me think this is some sort of CSS frame

Oh weird! I guessed so first, but tested changing my timezone and the times didn't change (upon reload). Sorry for the false alarm!

Congrats on the launch! However, if you plan to truly open this to the public, you should at the very least disclose what timezone your streams start at, or show schedules in the visitor's timezone. Under the most simplistic evaluati

How is it that running in a browser is inherently unprotected? Sure, they don't usually have the thousands of man-hours dedicated to cheat detection, but the basics are usually sorted out.

It is heavily based on shaders, so it's kind of hard to decouple from the renderer, especially when considering the multiplatform-ness. There are existing vector libraries for other environments, but none so far for Unity, so I think i

I was half asleep when typing that comment, sorry. Too late do edit now. I meant to write: "I believe that word was used very precisely"

Not too quite so, and the COS author addresses this in its website. ( https://collapseos.org/why.html , section "There are two stages of collapse") To be clear I don't necessarily share the view that this will

To be clear: Python does have embeddability, but it is orders of magnitude more complicated to integrate.

I don't think that's what the poster meant by "They got called IE". IE is notable for - along with the things you mentioned - being about a decade behind in web specification support and taking non-standard approaches to

Make sure to try out Budget Cuts too, it is also set in 90s-style megacorp offices, but it's a stealth/action game. Think the Matrix office escape scene, but a full game out of that. (And less crouch-walking, so it's knee-fri

I agree, but this is not what is being discussed in the article. It is about the manipulation provided by the platform, which you can indeed massively reduce your exposure to by not using it. (One could argue that targeted ads that would st

SmartScreen's current behaviour is more like if browsers pretended HTTP is a security error (It is not. It is just insecure, and labeled as such) and required the same bypass workflow.

Neither allow you to build interactive user interfaces besides what is provided by the browser. I understand the sentiment about reinventing the wheel, but this is more like inventing tyres I suppose (fortunately they are made of rubber,

Which demonstrates my main peeve with Godot currently: It was made for GDScript as much as GDScript was made for it. Both the C# and Rust integrations work , but they feel so wrong because the whole engine was designed in this ultra-dynami

My VS folder itself is 4.1GB, but there are tons of other stuff that gets installed too. I know I downloaded about 28GB on my first install.

Visual Studio is probably way more than 25GB, and it's 2020 still.
