Get real legal advice then consider appropriate action. Time is not your friend. Depending on Apple's whims you could actually lose app store access as they stumble and fall over themselves to be as slow to respond as possible. It is v

From the opinion piece: "I don’t know why Microsoft wants everyone to use an online login. I don’t know why Microsoft felt it had the right to treat its customers the way it did with the Get Windows 10 campaign or its six-year battle

The very definition of hacking applied to gardening. I think we need more agricultural robotics. This is a useful beginning and its been iterating for few years. Good stuff. Some of the complaints about linear garden beds is just not valid.

This is a good start. Bring on the real spec Linux phones with flagship CPU / ram / cameras. If only to act as a catalyst to improve the other platforms. But mostly so I can run What I Want (tm). But first, the market needs to be

Maybe. But I've also just gone deep into what most people would call a forest and just sit there for more than 2 hours. No music. No notebook. Nothing to read. Just sit there. Close your eyes. Sit. Does that qualify as doing nothing? O

This has a vaguely steam punk sensibility of a rethink of those old punch cards using only technology / techniques from the current era. Instead of the cards you've got image files. Maybe I missed it, but it would be good if it al

Your free image hosting thingy is an example of low barrier to entry both in cost and anonymity. If you had made the cost trivial but traceable I wonder what the outcome would have been. I wonder if a site like lobste.rs but for video would

Personally I'd like NVidia to be somewhere in the Top 50 of commits, or Top 100, Top 200. At least for a few weeks. Just saying. Is wanting them in the top 1000 being too cynical or just wishful thinking?

Which files get the most commits? Which sections of each files get more than usual commits? eg which functions? Who wrote this particular function first? who subsequently? How many of those include expletives? Curious minds need to know. If

Apple seems to think its OK according to this: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/itunes/itns2957/window... There's probably a bunch of caveats why even this isn't allowed for whatever &quot

The old discussions around digital assets resurface again. My perspective is really simple: If I buy something then its mine. If I lease something then its temporary. Buying a lease is actually just leasing. Digital assets are more often ju

I had a very similar takeaway. As a kid, I used to get stomach aches and a long list of other issues. Fast forward after a bunch of tests as an adult and the results reported to me by a doctor spelt out that most artificial sweeteners are e

Anyone got SDL2 and COBOL talking to each other? This seems like a suitably unlikely pairing to be "interesting".

I learnt the basics of Lua in a "few" days but realistically it took a week. Good enough to start being able to think-in-lua and using it to solve random problems without constantly referring to "how to loop through a list&qu

Duo is garbage for chat. Its as if they never used SMS or anything similar. Unusable. I've also used it for video calls. We had connection issues and swapped over to Houseparty (!) to get group chat working fast. That was stable as a r

Context does matter here. A catch-all "rule" doesn't make sense. In some channels I just type my update. Those channels don't have Hello or similar. We usually never actually leave them. We're always on. Even if we

Well... I wrote a snake game in python and lua. 0 based array (python) : screen_pos = x + y * width 1 based (lua) : screen_pos = 1 + x + y * width shrug So 0 based seems to work a little better for arithmetic based array references. But

I was quoting the parent comment for misspelling "pottering" as "poettering" since I'd not encountered either term. I'm not sure using someone's surname is such a great idea for this purpose. But I now at
