Much of GNOME Shell is actually JS, and a number of the default apps that ship with GNOME are written in Vala

I had this bright idea in 2019 (back in the before times) to build a code editing tool almost completely from scratch, that I've been working on off and on since then (though I guess recently its been more off than on). Mostly just bec

Its entirely dependent on how w/e library your using implements that pattern. For the code I just recently wrote that does a similar thing, its literally just: button.SetIcon(<icon-path-or-font-glyph>) box.add(button) Doesn'

Changing attributes of UI elements defined in code vs some XML format is in my mind the same level of effort. button.SetBackground(<color>) or <button backgroundColor="<color>" /> I see no difference there.

Unless there's some amount of "lying-by-omission" going on here (or some amount of me not understanding what was said), it doesn't sound like support staff get actual super user access to me. It just sounds like a poorly

Given how ridiculously strict the Linux folks are being with the DXGKRNL stuff that MS is working on (which is public as part of WSLg), I would say definitely not.

I believe most of the UI and extension stuff is done in JavaScript.

My MS account does not have a phone number attached to it. Had the same account for over a decade. Never been locked out over it. I do use the Authenticator app on my phone to login in though.

I believe VSCode's editor is actually built on a variation of a piece table (they call it a piece tree) https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2018/03/23/text-buffer-r... Not sure if this is still the

The minimum requirements were/are about pushing new HW sales and nothing else. A large portion of devices that were arbitrarily blocked, had no issues running the previews even with all the new security stuff. And on top of that none o

Yea I was also noticing a lot of "Working on it..." showing up, and I'm using a modern machine with an 11th Gen Core i7. I'm thinking most of the issue might be the wallpaper. Its cool and all, but its a huge CPU drain.

Time and trial-and-error is what eventually solved it. I was trying to configure the auto-HTTPS functionality to use DNS challenges, because my setup forbids any of the others, and this apparently requires plugins that are only supported by

Yes exactly. I also think Caddy 1 was just simpler to use in general, so it didn't matter as much. But I don't have much experience with that version, so could be wrong.
284.
by rstat1 5y ago
To be fair, Caddy's docs aren't great either. Last time I tried to deploy it to give SSL to something that didn't have it, took me 2 hrs to figure out the docs enough to get it working.

I didn't have that option enabled before, but even with it I still see no OneDrive folder. Also yes I login to my machine with an MS account because my license is a digital one attached to it. In fact I see no mentions to OneDrive at a

I'd say the worst part is that Firefox has a feature for blocking auto playing video. But it never works.

I have to say one of my new favorite tools as of this year is Tailscale. To steal Apple's annoying marketing phrase: It just works. I've never had to fiddle with it's settings or spend a bunch time figuring out configuration

But they do though. How else are they going to serve you ads based on your search terms? (which they plainly say on their website that they do) There isn't a single search engine anywhere that isn't collecting some data. Not even

You say that as if DuckDuckGo is completely immune to the same sorts of warrants. They're all the same, serving you ads based on your search terms.

Hmm, perhaps its something that changed in more recent versions then. My phone has one of the Android 12 betas on it. I certainly do remember this being a thing though, but not in a while.

This article isn't fully accurate. I just went to my Android phone, searched for a random thing with the Google search widget and the links I clicked on all opened in the default browser (which for me is Firefox).

You can keep the type-ahead functionality while also implementing proper full search like every other OS available does. It doesn't need to be a one or the other type deal. File Explorer in the last 4 major Windows releases has a searc

Access to kernel mode on Windows is already pretty restricted as it is. As far as I understand, you either have to run your whole machine in a special "Test Mode" or have a specific kind of (expensive) code signing certificate. Bu

In my mind there's a huge difference between the 2. The sony rootkit was installed in secret, full of security holes, hard to remove, and made by a vendor that appeared to give 0 shits about said security holes. All of the anti-cheat s
