Proper macOS virtualization, for example. Also, I do not want to have to upgrade my machine and OS every few years just to keep up with apps that stop working or installing, not because the hardware is no longer capable, but due to ridiculo

Yes, the death of Windows phone was a tragedy for the mobile phone market; it had a fresh take on things, and could have stirred up healthy competition with the duopoly of iPhones and Android phones. I never could understand why MS would no

Yep, vote with your wallets. It’s about time Apple learned that excellent hardware alone would not make up for what macOS lacks and where it fails for development.

Have you thought about whether this is kind of backward? It is possible that having a certain genetic predisposition makes it easy or difficult to stick to a good routine. I see this in myself: No matter what I do I find it very difficult t

But the other question is the manner in which these were carried out, even if they were needed. There is a real chance he caused needless pain, with long draw out procedure with insufficient anesthetic.

This is going to make things worse for all kind of use cases that are legitimate but seem non-standard or marginal. Heck, many websites I visit on the web cannot understand why I, a Ghanaian living in Ghana, might be interested in the servi

I hear you, but sometimes it is hard to understand why things just stop working for no apparent reason. One more example: Whenever I navigate to the Hacker News login page in the mobile browsers on my old iPad, I see: “Sorry”, just that, no

Yep, never own a domain with NameCheap. My experience was kind of opposite, but still bad nonetheless. I lost domains I had with them simply because I lost the phone I used for 2FA. After several calls to them, they requested some info. I s

Your article is all over the place and seems to have agenda. It is unable to stay on point and present a coherent argument. I'd rather trust the Nytimes and the UK intelligence who have confirmed these losses, than some random website
