Hmm. This isn't really much to do with a GPU, it's more of a very, very 101 intro to OpenGL. It takes me back to grade 8 or 9 when I was originally learning this stuff! Very nostalgic. But very little todo with GPU instructions th

Curious, would this not apply to Macs and iPads as well? Can you access iMessage just through the Messages app on Mac?

AppleScript might be one of the single most bizarre and arduous-to-write-in mainstream scripting/coding languages in history. I can’t say I’m a fan of such a literal interpretation of writing code. That being said, before I got a solid

I think it's absolutely what you grew up with. I grew up with 9x and vastly prefer it to the UI/UX of classic MacOS - though obviously MacOS today beats the pants off Windows. Modern MacOS is quite clearly the ultimate winner in t

It's very cute, but all the fun was ruined for me as soon as I saw it was vector-based. Part of the charm of that era was the pixel-by-pixel determination.

It's the fonts in general, for me; though I also noticed that the menus and icons labels had too much padding.

The only reason I suffered during lockdown was due to an abusive and gaslighting as hell roommate who actually permanently drove me away from ever having roommates again. Otherwise, it would have kicked ass. Working from home these days, it

Well, for one; on mobile - they're incredibly small to try to press, furthermore, the scrolling to move between the images is completely broken on both my iPhones and my Mac. As I said in another comment, this is one of the most poorly

This may be the most poorly-designed website I’ve seen hit the front page of HN. It’s the first I’ve actually tested on a other device to assure me it was truly broken and it wasn’t just my iPhone. Is this supposed to be an example of poor

Wow. This project is now more than 20 years old. I recall playing this when I was 11(?),12(?). I’m 32 now. My first forum post ever - under this moniker, lostgame - is from their forums 21 years ago. I actually consider SRB2 to be the great

As cool as this is; I’m a bit surprised that this is trending here with its questionable legality. I get that it’s not hosting any illegal material, but it’s linking to it, so it’s still pretty sketch. Neat tool, though…

Someone posted a comment I’d replied to in another thread here about iOS sideloading. They’d asked ‘why do you even need sideloading, what apps would you even need?’ I’d said ‘emulators’, but uBlock is definitely another thing I wish I co

I would’ve killed for something like this in elementary school. What a fantastic idea! Probably would’ve been prohibitively expensive for the educational market, though - so it’s kind of not a wonder it never made it.

Oooh! I’d also love to recommend GBA homebrew development, especially if you’re a little wary of learning Assembler. I had a fantastic time in high school, grade 11 or so (2005?) - playing with the homebrew development kit at the time…
