What about a grocery shop. You can login and buy things. But how do you choose whether the shop can kleep track of what you have bought to suggest rebuying or for you to keep a shoopping list. Requestion those is more than login.

Well Windows 95 was never a server. MS already had the much better NT and in those days it was not bloated.

I don't find normal syntax highlighting that useful. I use a heavier version of the rainbow delimiters. Where each scope or similar is a different colour. An example of this is prism mode in Emacs https://github.com/alp

It doesn't matter. If there is a definition of doing it right then it is a better experience in following that rather than adding new features that don't match the definition no matter what it is. And if the definition changes th

Yes that works to read them - and I do use that. But if you want to write a message in reply or start a new conversation - RSS does not allow that. (In the cases that I use RSS - I will just copy to my mail app - it is more cumbersome than

They have not resolved the big issue. news.gmane.io has always worked. The issue is that the owner of that domain made a mistake and gave the control of the web frontend to someone else who just shut it down.

I don't see any incentive for Amazon to do that. Even if you do not buy any books from Amazon you still paid them for the Kindle. And if you have a Kindle you might buy the odd book from them. Also the Kindle is marketed as allowing yo
