Jesus - this is the extremity of the textbook definition of 'overblown' or 'clickbait'.

“...police have not proven themselves to be statistically worth the ‘right to privacy’.” Your comment is extremely poorly worded with the recent and historical explosion of derision against black people, etc. Very poor choice of words. :(

The Beatles are the farthest thing from public domain possible and would never be included in such an exercise. Valid point - most hilariously poor example to back that point up in recent memory.

Couldn't agree with this sentiment more. It's always going to be a money and time pit when you need to outsource to fix any problems. If you don't know code, hire someone on your team who does. :)

Google Image search even does this! Incredibly annoying - only to go to the source image itself and find it to be JPEG or PNG. Very confused as to why this is done - anyone?

Bizarre. Absolutely works for me and always has. (iOS 14 atm. Worked since about 9.)

Or good old MK-ULTRA, of course. :P Nothing is better conspiracy fodder than ‘the government tried to practice mind control by force feeding people LSD,’ etc - and this is actual declassified government papers. Freaky stuff.

I’m not familiar with the way iOS apps are run on Big Sur natively. What happens when multi-touch with hand-eye coordination is required? My Mac runs a Nintendo DS emulator fine, but it sure is a bitch for a game like Scribblenauts, or any

No. Two amazing emulators got sued out of existence - and paved the way for legal existence of hundreds of emulators since. In no way are emulators a target these days. The ROMs are. By your own admission - the emulator war was won.

Yes, because I'm not a sociopath. :P I'm well aware some people like to work from home. If you are one of those people you can keep working from home. All I'm asking is for the respect that I am not one of those people - and

So your use case effectively represents maybe 1% of iOS/iPadOS users? :P Realistically probably less? Because, as a musician - I should just use the Web App version of GarageBand, right? Because I'm sure the Web App version of Ga

Sorry; but no. This weird virtual interaction is nowhere close to the real social environment of seeing and working with people face to face. We shouldn’t be forced to come in; but I for one would freakin’ love the option. This is a primary

Right. The issue I have with this is that we have i7 models that are from 5 and 10 years ago with vastly different performance due to their generation. If it was more iterative it would make more sense.

So I can pay with crypto on Amazon? Etsy? Discogs? I don’t understand why there are so many posts here saying ‘just use crypto’, like - PayPal is a scam and needs a replacement but the problem is until sites start accepting crypto as simp

Thank you for saying this. Honestly - it's not even the i3, i5, i7, i9 thing. It's the fact that two i5s, etc; can be ludicrously different in terms of performance from one another because of the sub-generations within the nam

$5 for a movie is still cheap. :)

I think the problem is that you're pitching the value too low. It's like...$1 for a DRM-free song right now, and tbh that's not unfair. Even if I could buy movies DRM-free right now for $10, older movies for $5, that'd

What OS do you use? As an iOS dev for a living and a mainly MacOS user I have unfortunately found the UI/UX experience of Inkscape and GIMP (especially) to be kinda rough to use, I feel like maybe it’s better on Linux?

Guys, I didn't mean the music itself was terrible, I meant the fact that music was included to be auto-on to start in web content produced post-2002... I would have personally put the audio as off by default, with the little icon

The music is terrible - (gives me 90's website MIDI audio PTSD :P) - but it's a cute idea. Would this actually be an effective CAPTCHA? E.G. Security-wise? Also, speaking of 90's-internet PTSD, I actually almost mistook thi

Sure; but the WebView component is Apple’s own secured little space, and it seems to be a fairly secure little sandbox.
