I’m sorry this is so vague, I’m in transit right now; so I’m a little lazy to try to Google this from my phone - but there is some sort of proxy-type thing for these old Macs that allows you to use the ‘modern web’, to an…extent? I think it

This is very, very impressive. But I am almost existentially disappointed by the opening sentence - ‘For reasons I won’t get into’… It’s like - why ? The reasons we drive ourselves to do these frankly insane hacking experiments are almost

>> I cannot trust anything they make to be supported in the future anymore. That's actually the largest reason I can't invest in Google's ecosystem, but that's mostly from a tech stack end.

You can download them from Safari and select 'VLC', for one...otherwise you can easily use Finder on Mac to just drag it over to the VLC documents folder on your iPhone - not sure about Windows.

Huh? In what world can’t I use FLAC files on my iPhone? VLC does it great, I use them almost literally every day…

That’s fair - but also remasters can be subjective. For instance - I vastly prefer most of the original Beatles masters to the 2010’s remasters. Point is that we’re almost comparing 128kbps MP3 to CD quality with DVD vs. Blu-Ray. Many Blu-R

I don’t think this really affects my point that the fragmentation situation is infinitely better with streaming music than it is with video. Here’s - perhaps - a better explanation as to why. The majority of major music labels - Sony&#x2F

Unfortunately as a SEGA Saturn collector, this is no surprise, and disc rot has taken claim to games that could otherwise be worth hundreds of dollars today. :( Weirdly, almost all of even my much older audio CD’s - stored in the same bin a

I think an issue for me that prevents me from collecting DVD’s, to; say - collecting CD’s - is that while a CD from the 1980’s is pretty much the best quality of audio you can still get today, DVD’s unfortunately suffer from an issue where

Music streaming doesn’t suffer nearly the fragmentation issues film and television streaming services have, though. If I want to listen to something as common as Kanye or something as obscure as MSTRKRFT, I can do it on Spotify, Apple Mus

Frankly, they shouldn't have increased their subscriber fees recently. It's not the time. They could've done it closer to the beginning of the pandemic, when it wouldn't have really affected the amount of subscribers, as

But the PNG provided was 103 bytes :3 Also - pardon my ignorance, this may be a dumb question, is SVG universally supported in browsers these days? I’m not big up on image standards.

WebOS may very well be my favourite mobile OS. What really lost me was the hardware. Unfortunately the Pre/Pre 2 was very underpowered and extremely limited in choice of carrier. There’s a lot of reasons why WebOS never ‘made it’, but

iMovie is not on Windows. AFAIK it has never been, unlike Logic.

The fee increase literally only harms the sellers. I use Etsy at least about once a month - I'm a huge fan of custom knick-knacks such as this lovely 'fix your hearts or die' 'Twin Peaks' pin in support of transgend

Uhh…this comes from an insanely programmer-biased perspective. I imagine you’ve probably been a software dev for a long time - and come from a history of game dev? (Ha - yeah - you did. I looked you up, you worked on ‘Bioshock’? It is to

Why the heck wouldn't it be? Game design - especially in 3D environments - is an incredibly visual process! Unless you are incredibly familiar with programming to start - why, if you were approaching game design, and - for instance -

I pay for premium, so I wouldn’t notice - but holy crap, that would certainly put a dent in the whole gag, for sure.

Switching to Linux is obviously not the only solution - and somehow trying to argue that it’s the case is not only ignorant - but straight-up what my core issue is with Linux evangelism. There is such a lack of consideration for the avera

I don’t get how losing access to the software I need to do the things I need to do - have spent quite a bit of money on - and a lot of time learning - gives me ‘control’. Actually - it doesn’t. Plain and simple. I actually laughed out loud

I’m so tired of hearing this ‘just switch to Linux’ bullshit. If you are privileged enough to be in the extreme minority who can do that - you probably already have. I know you know this - but people need proprietary software, and they ne
