I have an XPS13 matte. It's an excellent laptop, thin, portable. There's some touchpad weirdness but if it ever freaks out on you, put four fingers down. $700 with 8GB RAM and 1080p screen. PCI slot, flash battery are only upgrada

Actually, in this case it's the joys of a resource-extraction-based economy which leads to massive consolidation of power and corruption, and which may be dolled up under many forms of government, left or right. Socialism isn't th

Github is better. It just is. You don't have to worry about backups, it has great tools built on top of the vcs to make working with it and project management easier. It makes it easier to manage the D part of DVCS, and it lets you eas

You hit the nail on the head, and then turned it into a condemnation and missed the point and problem entirely. It's mental illness. The reason they won't "follow any rules" is because they're mentally ill. There&#x

And the thing about being Mossad'd is that even if you're being individually targeted, making it harder often is what lets you know you're being attacked. Raise the bar to fend off attackers!

We're trying to do better when best is really, really hard. Saying "it's not perfect so it's not good enough" really doesn't make anything harder for attackers. If you trust on boot, and someone forces a reboot

I think there will probably be a lot of niche, human staffed places. I worry though, that as robots close the gap, our collective baseline for cost will drop so low that $3 for good espresso will seem outrageous when the robot will churn it

I hate to be unable to put my money where my mouth is, but I read a bunch of early 3d game GDDs in college as part of understanding and overcoming hardware limitations in computer graphics. It wasn't so much "dont do this" as

If it's any consolation, non "indie" artists including large clothing manufacturers also maintain a baseline lividness usually reserved in the industry for counterfeiters.

How does a barista offer that, versus simply visiting an interface (app, browser), clicking a button, and having it delivered to your table by a robot within five minutes? I don't think the "productive atmosphere" concept is

It's not anecdotal, it's a comment that showed up in design documents of games by experienced developers. Trade shows and magazines used the best quality possible, because it was marketing. However, I'm not aware of any gdds

I'd rather take at face value the parent comment author's claims that the translation is hard than I would assume incompetence or some sort of intentional loophole.

by tekklloneer 10y ago
Is this a claim in the form of a question? They could do both, after all.

But, I don't "really want high performance networking". What I want is "good-enough performance networking" everywhere in my house.

Very well. When someone I love is in that situation, I'll be happy to send you the $20k+ a week bill.

My parents did this. They will be around less of my life but were around more of my life. I'm glad for it.

I think locking yourself into any single proprietary format is a mistake. I realize my comment came off as implying Logic is doomed, but if you're really worried about vendor lockin, spending an afternoon on tutorials and a few side pr

You should probably start the transition off of Logic now, while it's still supported software.

I fully agree, but the situation two decades ago is extremely different today. Also, I wasn't clear but I was specifically thinking of the lack of HDMI/display port unless I missed that it has it (which is possible). I already hav

a) i develop for touch interfaces. Short of any unannounced magic, I know how they work. You have to look at them, and keyboards are input devices based around not looking at them. I'm sure they'll be useful in their current incar

The hard fact is that there's still a LOT of usb devices out there. Even one USB port would greatly alleviate the pain. If they don't include a usbc->usb+hdmi adapter in the box, it's going to be extremely painful for user

While I appreciate USB-C, it's still too early to go USB-C only, especially on a "professional" laptop. And, the transition to lightning headphones is a glaring example of the left hand SOMEHOW not being aware of what the rig

But, "wireless and cellular speeds" is increasingly becoming a physics problem. I'm not so optimistic as to proclaim the downfall of Comcast. I wouldn't be surprised if Comcast releases an MVNO with devices that are inte

When I moved, I didn't build a "living room hub". In fact, I don't have a TV. I find it much more gratifying to hang out on the couch with my 3DS nowadays in hour long bursts.

Or they prepended the header themselves as whoever developed the emulator used the de facto standard.

I read that as they just used the same file format as the piracy community. So, I don't know where the source of the dumps is specified?
