Can the ROM be read and flashed back on Casio watches? I once bought a solar G-shock but the watch UI is horrible: it does not display the battery charge anywhere on the watch. Instead, it wants you to install a Casio app that connects to t

Thanks much and keep the same heading please! I really enjoy using tools that have matured and become good enough that there's no longer any major need for new features — and where nothing is added just for the sake of "improvemen

I think this is because of the short and fast phased nature of the TikTok content. Instead of publishing 10 to 30 min videos... Thanks, you just revalidated my opinion. I had vaguely understood TikTok to be more transient in communication

What I really want is for all cookies to be deleted when the browser exits, except for the sites assigned to the containers I've created. At least Firefox 90.x has a checkbox "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed&

Reads more like a public relations piece in disguise of an "internal memo". Maybe it was designed to be "leaked", and so quickly?

So even just linking the headlines _without_ the snippets was still not in compliance. Next they'll discover that it's the URIs themselves which can reveal the headline very well such as in: https://www.reuters.com&#x

This means we programmers can eventually get back to the real fun i.e. optimizing code like it's the 1990's instead of toying around with bloated layers of libraries and lazily built abstractions. It can be cool to run a previousl

Try your nearest shell to experiment with this? In my scripts and programs I've stored data just in files many times: simple, transparent and effective. Works everywhere. There's so much in search that you can just brute-force thr

Amiga disks were pushing 880KB onto a floppy whereas the PC floppies only wrote 720KB. Amiga's disk controller was the more flexible one and could easily read various formats, including MS-DOS but PCs couldn't adapt to reading Ami

Any fire with flames is something around 600C and up to even double that. Air is relatively cheap to heat up. I'd wager the combustion process, once fully started, won't suffer much if the ambient temperature is -30C or +30C: the

Scientists are people. Taking the path of least resistance and skipping over details is the nature of some people, and thus of some scientists as well. It's not unbeknownst in other professions. Anecdotally, I haven't had my car s

This is definitely a step in the right direction. Problem isn't the browser's ability to run code such as JS which makes it possible to create things like supercookies. Problem is web pages are effectively applications that are se

If the car honks or flashes its indicator lights doesn't mean the car is locked. If one door is slightly open the locks will generally unlock immediately, regardless of the sounds/lights. A more reliable way is to listen to the lo

There's nothing wrong with letting go of a dream. People often judge by the outcome while the value lies in the journey. The point of dreaming of something and trying to reach it is what you learn and realise about yourself while doing

RAII is a special case of defer, due to how it abuses constructors and destructors to hook into the points of entering and exiting scope. You could write a RAII implementation in terms of defer but not the other way around. RAII doesn'
