You called the previous poster's exaggerated example a strawman, then made an inappropriately detailed response to an argument that wasn't being made in the first place.

I'm sorry, but I genuinely don't understand what you mean. There are thousands of videos of people demonstrating use of this computer. Is there a specific property of a demonstration you are looking for?

Why in the world is an emulator wrapped up in Unity?

I hope not. Except for a few choice models (the T4-T6 era "FlexView" IPS panels), the screens in ThinkPads have not been exceptional at all. Even the IPS choices were a total lottery.

I don't know why people are negatively marking your post, because this is a thing a lot of people do and it does feel like there is a bit of a stigma to do so.

Respecting indent preferences of others while not breaking the formatting of that line-split function call.

This is an example of where it's absolutely okay to mix tabs and spaces. If it's Python, that's not going to work, but depending on one's preferences and opinions that can be seen as a defect of the language, not the for

This guy gets it. Tabs for indent, spaces for formatting within. No need to push your tab size standards on the next person to edit your code, and no need to force their editor to retab it to their preference, and back again when it's

If these artists/creators get picked up (which is in many of their interests), they are faced with pressure to deliver, bedroom or not.

There is a little more CPU time, but the extended vertical blanking interval means there is a huge difference in video memory bandwidth, which is critical for a long DMA transfer from 68000-bus memory to VRAM through the Mega Drive's

Can this be used with a wired keyboard and mouse on most phones?

The first has results from Geekbench finding that "A10 Fusion has roughly the same single-core processor performance as Intel's top sixth-generation Core m processor". The second references Matt Mariska's misleading twee

A floating pin on a CMOS device is absolutely real.

I don't see a video of a person actually unfolding this thing, which looks like a complicated process when your friend gravity insists on helping you out.

YouTube users do not organize videos into channels. Channels are delivery mechanisms. Users organize them with Playlists, which is intuitive for the content.

I also do not quite understand. As someone who loves 68000-based powerhouse art computers from the '80s, I can understand the appeal of the original Amiga line, but the PowerPC ones confuse me a bit because they no longer bring a uniqu

You could have a lot of combinational logic dependent on floating/high-Z inputs, which is not good for CMOS circuitry.

I'm sure a lot of people are going to recommend RetroPie and other emulation packages. I'm going to recommend against general-purpose emulation if you enjoy the games in question: https://retropie.org.uk/forum&#x2F

From experience, using the bridge means pinging the admin on slack about it, and convincing them that it's even worth doing, and then being stuck in "The IRC Room", instead of the others rooms in which people are actually com

A lot of these small LCDs interface with a zebra pad, hitting contacts on the LCD glass and some gold or carbon-coated conductors on the PCB. Gold conductors are easy, carbon-coated conductors are okay but can be annoying, but the pitch gen

While the sentiment isn't untrue, to say that the "see how you think" discussions are bullshit is going a little far.

NESticle got me into modification and reverse-engineering. Specifically, it allowed the user to not only view the graphics ROM data all at once, but also modify the tiles and see the effect in real-time!
