The Surface Book has a great screen but my god that machine was an absolute nightmare for the ~2 months I had it. Microsoft seriously screwed up on QC. Not to mention it was just way over-engineered. All people were asking for was a Sur

Had to happen sooner or later. I just wish Microsoft had not tied Edge so deeply into Windows 10 (did they not learn from doing the same with Internet Explorer?) as at the moment it is limited to updates as part of the OS (Windows Update) a

A little off topic but hey it's the weekend so here is a little story about smoking - I worked with a guy who used to go out for a "smoke break" every few hours with the others but never smoked. He used to grab a coffee and p

Installer is digitally signed August 3rd, why such a long delay until release?

Thank you! Figured I had missed it skim reading on mobile :)

I only had a quick skim of the article so maybe I missed it but is there a quick disable for Face ID like there is for Touch ID? Can law enforcement just hold the phone up to your face and unlock it? We all know Touch ID is not protected un

That is pretty incredible I have to say. Amazing how tough bacteria are even in the extremes of deep space.

It isn't as powerful as IDA but x64dbg is a free and open source debugger for Windows and a good goto for hobbyists imho - https://x64dbg.com

Correct, Chrome OS is a Linux-based distribution. I believe it is/was based on Gentoo although I may be misremembering that.

I would also like if the developer would agree to release the source code under a FLOSS license should he find working on Sublime Text is no longer worthwhile for him (could be financial but could also just be because he has lost interest i

Just checked and my upgrade cost is only $11 which I can't really argue with ;)

Not a transcode just a mux of the different audio and video files into a container such as MP4 or MKV. Pop ffmpeg in the same directory as youtube-dl and it will do the work for you. A simple 'youtube-dl [video url] -f bestvideo+bestau

Might just be my machine but it feels extremely "heavy" (slow) in Firefox compared to Chrome. I'm assuming it is some rendering bottleneck in Firefox.

This is correct. By sticking to pure Win32 controls it allows screen readers to do their job properly. While making your own controls or using third party UI libraries will give you a nicer looking UI it makes the screen readers job much

Glad to see I am not the only person who finally went full in with VSCode once it got hot exit :)

Perhaps I am unusual but even for a professional programmer $70 is still a lot when there are other free tools that are just as good. Why would I spend $70 on an editor rather than treat myself to a new game or a nice meal out instead and h

by satysin 9y ago
While Sublime Text is a very good editor I do think $70 is a lot when you look at the free competition. VSCode and Atom did not exist when ST2 was released and ST2 offered the best out-of-box experience back then, now I am not so sure.

I like Sublime Text and would be happy to pay around $15 to upgrade to v3 but anymore and I will stop and really think about what I am actually spending my money on. Yes Sublime Text is very nice but the world has changed with the arrival o

Agreed. For around £8/month I would probably get Disney's streaming service but only if it actually has all of Disney's content available to watch. If they do something stupid like only 5 Disney classics at a time then sorry

My guess would be that macOS shuts down all the additional composition features when full screen is activated so no need for live previews (or even rendering at all) of other windows, all those pretty bokeh effects, etc. Plus it probably me

Totally understand. Just thought I would do my bit to promote Fedora when I can ;) Any idea what you will move onto?
