Snow Leopard was a goddamn mess , everyone forgets. Yeah, 10.6.8 was rock solid. In 10.6.0 there was a bug that erased your user folder if you logged into the guest account. It was NOT a good release at the start.

I agree but its becoming increasingly clear that "chatbot-as-the-CLI" is likely a "worse is better" situation. It's clearly crappier and slower than just hitting a button, but everyone knows what they want and they

I have iStat Menus on my Mac showing me my SSD usage (R/W) in my menubar at all times. I have rarely ever seen it go over 1GB/s, and I'm on an M1 Pro MacBook Pro, using it pretty heavily. I see 1GB/s when using the xip

That is correct. Platinum still looks fantastic, carefully hewn out of the HIG. Early Aqua is a bit ostentatious and at the very least indulgent. Still better than the fucking flat-slop plus glarse vomit we have to put up with now.

clabretro does it all on hardmode too. Picks the most obscure, esoteric shit to try and get working: IBM i was the most recent, but his AT&T Merlin Phone series was great. I feel like the Sun Ray stuff was the most likely to be you know

I think the "buy a solenoid and a hammer to slap the case everything you hit a key" think most definitely is, like the typists truck nuts of keyboard mods.

Or more likely that prior to 15.4, macOS was using an ancient version of rsync because Apple wants to avoid the GPL 3.0. rsync went GPL 3.0 in 2007.

Even Elegoo has a reliable CoreXY printer. Going from a bedslinger to a CoreXY is why you felt the Bambu P1 was a big upgrade. Bambu didn't invent printers with those kinematics, they were just the first major ones on the market and ma

Yeah Bambu's "moat" was mostly in the fact that spent a bit more time considering consumer usability, they spent a shitload of money on advertising (like, the common refrain "I didn't want a 3d printer hobby" i

The moving wallpapers are near the first few times but I can't turn it off. I had to dig deep into WallpaperKit (I mean really? It's a friggin wallpaper) to find the static last frame of the wooshy moving BS.

Intel Macs are still going to be usable, viable computers for at least another 5 years. It will be a decade before they pass into the night of vintage computing enthusiasts like PowerPC Macs did.

Lots of people enjoyed, sometimes quietly, feeling superior to people not predisposed to self control. Now that you can get a weekly shot of it, they desperately search for something new to feel quietly smug about. "Well you'll ha

I think the really important part of this is that Pawel modified OrcaSlicer to look like BambuStudio by looking at the AGPL licensed source code of BambuStudio and copying it over. And the function he copied over just set the UserAgent stri

Have you owned any other printers? So much of this opinion sounds like a Bambu ad read from YouTube, as if they're the only ones making printers that just work now, like a Prusa can't crank out perfect first layers without breakin

If you can enable a third party trust system you completely open it up for abuse. If I put my threat actor hat on, I love your idea because now I have an alternative codepath to try and exploit (where you do store third-party trusted root

The comment you are replying to did not say we should kill a CEO, it said we are adults and if we are talking about killing a CEO we should use the word kill and not some self-censored euphemism.

That's why UIs that don't bury everything behind inscrutable squiggles and modals are great. First thing I do in a new app or new web service is click all the stuff, try and get a lay of the land and understand the UI metaphors. I

What a shame they went with GTK. Not only does it look awful but it looks awful on KDE too despite me being able to make KDE not look awful.

Home users only do video calls and watch Netflix? More and more regular people are getting network storage appliances. More and more people have laptops with SSDs that can write at 4 or 5 GB/s. Why shouldn't they get to use all of
