I've been using a Mac full time for a little over a year. I'd agree fully with you on the full screen going to a separate desktop. Extremely annoying. However, you can switch desktops with control + right/left arrow. No need

iPad Mini fits (barely) in my pants pocket when I'm wearing my baggy cargo pants. Also would go around nicely in a bag. There's a variety of keyboard cases for it. Including hinged ones with trackpads which turn it into a tiny lap

That was a nice feature of the Atari 800. Reset button is off to the side away from the keyboard. With little plastic risers / borders above and below it to further reduce the chance of accidentally hitting it. Even though I was a very

We have something very close to national legalization right now. Fortunately, it seems to be flying under the radar so red state legislatures aren't acting against it. By "legalization", I'm talking mostly about THC edib

These are the numbers we know. I can't assess the numbers we don't know. That's why I was careful to use the words "possible" and "not sure if this is true". I wasn't trying to be misleading. I fully

If you want to call Sam a liar, be my guest. But it's his claim. Plus the $24 million from Ryan is documented. If Sam isn't lying, then that's 40 million + 24 million = 64 million to Republicans. Which is more than the roughl

He admitted donating to Republican dark money groups. He claims he donated roughly the same amount to conservative causes as he did with Democratic orgs. Plus, another exec in his organization, Ryan Salame, donated $24 million to Republican

There's a similar selection of electric vehicles at Alibaba. I'm a little tempted by the electric truck on offer. On my rural property, it might actually be useful. Even if not useful, would be fun to drive around. It's not s

I fully understand. I do much of the same. Work from home. Keep the fan on at all times for the noise. Have one monitor playing content-less videos on a loop. For me personally, train cab ride videos and asmr massage do the trick. There&#x2

I hope an RPG designer read your joke. I'd love to see a "transmute eyeballs to gold" alchemical recipe show up. Would be hilarious. Especially in an MMORPG where it's crucial to their bottom line to keep players' a

Definitely was stuck with either light coloring somewhere, or difficult to read text. I remember experimenting with different shades of gray for either the background or the text, but couldn't find one which would work on both dark and

I didn't know about that one. Looks nicer than the one I ended up using.

You could come close to a proper dark mode, but would fall short. That's with using the color scheme editor in the control panels. I wasted too much time back in '98 trying to make a proper dark mode. Not that we called it that ba

You are correct. There was no OOTB dark mode in 1998. I remember it well because I wasted some time every now and then trying to make one using the appearance control panel. It was frustrating because I could come very close to a universal

That's very well done. I was pretty happy about turning my Camaro into a Jeep and being able to go off-road for miles before finally running out of map. The fall and winter modes are especially evocative. Winter with fog or winter with

My personal favorite is Auxy. Has a subscription, but there's a ton of free instruments included so the subscription isn't mandatory. Very easy interface but can create complicated compositions. Can export to Ableton, MIDI, WAV an

I had two relatives who fought in WWII. The contrast between them is interesting. One was in an engineering unit and was a classic REMF. He had tons of stories about the war. Usually about how he and his buddies would get drunk and wreck je

I could see that. I enjoy the live cam tours because my partner is immunosuppressed and we're not going anywhere for a while. So it's nice to visit virtually. But I hadn't thought about the actual visitors and what they would

TikTok live is kinda wild. You never know what you're going to get. One thing I like about it. My favorite was a live stream from a small town festival in Bali. Started off with a bunch of acrobats doing slapstick comedy. Ended with da

To me, grape juice is divine and wine is, at best, tolerable. Some of us are pretty sensitive to the taste of alcohol. Even in small quantities in mild drinks like wine.

There seems to be at least one high-ish level FSB agent talking to us. Considering current levels of Russian corruption, there's probably more than one.

Probably not. Google has beta support for Steam on a handful of new (and new-ish) Chromebooks. Will probably make that mainstream on the Intel / AMD models eventually. Unsupported Chromebooks can install Steam via Linux as long as they

Sorry for the late reply. It works fine for free. There's no impediments to the actual gameplay. Gems aren't mandatory for anything. It's been a while since I last played, but when I did, gems weren't needed for anything

The case was an exercise in nostalgia. He mentioned laptops he saw as a child and couldn't afford. Therefore, he wanted to make something similar.

Now that I think about it, it’s a little surprising there hasn’t been a first party keyboard attachment for Kindles, Kobos, or the reMarkable tablet yet. Maybe the reMarkable at least supports keyboards via bluetooth. There’s many of us who

Roadside Picnic is probably my favorite version of alien visitation. I'm partial to stories where the aliens are largely incomprehensible. Especially the ones who can manage the high tech requirements of FTL. Felt very realistic having

For anyone who wants a Factorio-like on iOS, there's a great game called Builderment. It's not as complex as Factorio but it does get rather involved. Works well with touch and even works well on the smaller screens of iPhones.

I occasionally fire up Numbers on my i-devices. It's ok on iPads. But on my iPhone it's a bit painful. Haven't tried it on there in a few years. I should try it again to see if works better on the small screen now.
