To be fair that is a pretty decent response. The reality is batteries do degrade over time and they have to manage that. They should have been transparent about what they were doing and I'm not sure giving the user control over it is

It is interesting to see no games were developed using C, C++ or Java and outside of JS for web games it is all C# and Unity. I don't really follow game dev, is C# popular in the industry then? I know a couple of popular indie games we

I stopped drinking alcohol when I was 18 (I am 33 now) as I could see it was effecting how well I could study. Poor sleep, hang overs, etc. made me want to take a break for a few months to concentrate on other things in my life. 6 months la

Well not just ssh but I did leave Windows for Fedora because Windows lacked a solid terminal emulator and all third party ones did was act as a wrapper around cmd.exe which solved some UX issues but not the core limitations of cmd.exe itsel

Looks nice but only has a Chrome extension at the moment. Also the browser extension requires the desktop app be installed.

I have been using Microsoft OneDrive without issue for the past couple of months. The new Files On Demand feature works well. Of course this is only really helpful to Windows users which is a shame.

I use it for daily journaling, writing articles, etc. As well as for writing terrible short stories :) It is quite a versatile bit of writing software. Stable and I've never lost any data. Lots of features (perhaps too many sometimes)

Indeed. I would rather take an excellent monitor, keyboard and mouse over a faster machine without them. Sadly this means I am pretty much limited to desktops as finding a laptop with a colour accurate 120Hz+ display with excellent keyboard

That was a real dick move by Dale. All you have to do is watch a couple of Naomi's videos and you can see she is not a fraud. She is comfortable and competent with all the tools she uses in her videos and not just in a studio setting e

I recently switched to BitWarden and have had zero problems. The Firefox and Chrome extensions work great as does the Android app. Overall it has been a pain free experience and I'm very glad I did it.

Slack is using 282 MB on my system currently [0]. I am only connected to two servers though. I don't consider 282 MB to be awful although it is a lot more than Discord which is only using 100 MB while connected to six servers. [0] http

For sure. Many friends of mine have had no issues. Maybe I was just unlucky or my way of using the phone is different enough, who knows.

Apple have stuck to LCD for all their iPhone's. The iPhone X will be the first with an OLED panel so it will be interesting to see if after a few months it also suffers from burn in.

OLED screens are lovely in many ways but after having a Galaxy S6 that I had to return twice due to burn in I avoid it now. It just isn't worth the hassle of having to get the phone repaired/replaced. It took Samsung over a week

Just to give a second opinion, I have not had any of the issues NikolaeVarius mentioned. Well that is not quite true actually. In Firefox you can't change the hotkeys but that is more of a Firefox issue as you can't change the hot

I didn't pick Bitwarden right away. The comment that mentioned it prompted me to research password managers in general. I looked at primarily online (1Password, LastPass, Bitwarden, etc) and offline desktop client ones (Keepass). I do
