What’s the point of being forced to open something up if only to say ‘no’ to Meta? Can’t have it both wars. It’s either open or it’s not.

It makes sense on a trackpad too which is what the majority of sold Macs come with. You’re “pushing” the document, not moving the scroll bars. Seems perfectly natural to me. My fingers move up, the document moves up; just like what would ha

Super ZSNES and the original ZSNES are not the same emulator. Same developers, different codebases entirely. The linked website is about the newer Super ZSNES.

I mean that you can now change default apps. Nice jump to a strawman rather than waiting for a reply.

A wonderfully out-of-date sentiment.

Where are the sources? These seem like huge assertions to make without citing a single source.

I think is because, whether intentional or not, Kagi wound up being aimed at (or sought by, either or) people who don't see these things are related. I don't know if they're arrogant to consider themselves the main customer b

The Xbox division, too, if you pay attention to the gaming world. Then again, never pay attention to gamers. They just like to moan for sport. If moaning were DLC, they'd get a monthly subscription.

Ah, is that not going to college part why you're loathe to give up such a good gig? Surely by now your CV speaks for itself, although I suppose in Redmond, where else are you going to go.

Microsoft have been bashed on the daily since forever. There's no way you joined the company without knowing it was happening prior to you joining, at the time of you joining, and after you joining.

Do you think you're really changing anybody's mind raving like this, copy-pasting the same garbage on every AI-related post? Do you genuinely believe you're penetrating hearts and minds, causing people to reevaluate their cho

See, that makes sense to me. Build it all into one device, super simple, super clever. For me who always uses a Magic Trackpad, doing gestures is the equivalent to holding down that wee button. So I think we see eye on eye on this. It'

It's tiring to discuss because it's never that they could ever sympathise with my usage, it's that they are physically (yes, physically!) incapable of imagining anything other than their own usage. See also: Linux users who i

Using a trackpad gesture is just as quick, easier, more spatially natural, and only uses one hand. My left hand is not always on my keyboard. I'm not always typing. I'm not modelling 100% of my computer usage after "how to

Resizing windows is easier when you don't have to grab the corner. Some people are talking about holding a key to resize on Linux but I don't want to be forced to use the keyboard. My favourite solution on macOS is an app called S

Rather than making people run commands in Terminal, it would be more ideal to just tell people to try to run the app, then go to System Settings -> Privacy & Security -> scroll down until they see the Open Anyway button. It'l

Congratulations, you've won the "Works on My Machine" award, except for self-control instead of software. Well done. Everyone's very impressed.

I suspect any such studies these days will be Office vs Google Docs vs iWork vs LibreOffice. Mind boggles how that data will look!

by zapzupnz 9mo ago
A study from 16 years ago is hardly relevant anymore. Back in 2003, people were still familiar with Office 2003's layout; most people have long since forgotten that layout or never learnt it in the first place. The author doesn't

Why not post directly to the article rather than through a twitter post? Also, this article only applies to the US.

The website already has a demonstration of what this does that native tabs don’t do and how they look.

And I'm calling out the unearned arrogance of somebody who doesn't understand what hyperbole is, a fairly basic rhetorical device.

All of the things on this website have affected my experience of macOS and iOS for a long, long time. I definitely go straight to the Gmail website when I need to search for anything on my work account. Yes, I've got it set up to cache

The terrible UI of a straight-forward document separated into distinct blocks, paragraphs and charts that are easily read, that scrolls from from top-to-bottom? Yeah, awful.

I suspect the point was never to win awards for web design, just to put some content on a page.
