I really don't care about the UI, just the data. And Dark Sky data was superior to anything else I've seen.

I usually have 800 to 1000 tabs open and Firefox only uses a few GB.

There was an article posted here arguing that recently. Something along the lines of "Why does anything exist?"

It works great on my 1080 (8gb). They did an awesome job making this work on mainstream hardware.

Meh, this is clearly fabricated. I was following along with someone using Excel as a word processor up until they were also using Word as a spreadsheet.

It's not the factual accuracy of the comment that's getting downvoted, it's the disrespectful attitude, tactless delivery, and/or assumptions about the nature of a religious experience.

The vast majority of Second Life users have been using primarily third-party viewers since Linden Lab open sourced it in 2007. It's been a boon for users. It just takes a bit of up-front design and planning. And Linden Lab is actually

As the story demonstrates, there could be extra-legal consequences whether one allows them in or not. For average people without very deep pockets, it's damned if you do, damned if you don't.

I disagree. Their return policy average at best. Returns are only free if the item is damaged, defective, or incorrect. At Costco or Best Buy, I can return an item because I didn't like it. Even when returning items for "incorrect

I would pay for Firefox itself, no extras necessary or wanted. But there's no way to do that.

When I was 9, we had a typing class at school and I learned to touch type (i.e., 10 fingers) at about 20 wpm. By 12 I was up to 40 or more. I suppose I would have been blocked.

A USB mouse just sends x/y distance traveled over USB HID protocol. All the details are integrated into silicon. The sensor is a camera and the processor diffs the images to calculate the distance. To learn about the algorithms for tha

Yeah, I came across this when I was researching UPS models since I have a few I need to replace with sine wave units. Unfortunately the current generation of APC's consumer PFC UPSes also have a reputation for catching fire. At least t

After a cursory browse of the last few months of issues, this looks legitimate and not even a case of "ornery maintainers close everything as won't fix." (Not that it isn't their right to do so, but I did wonder.)

Why do I need glasses for reading if I'm nearsighted? Unless you mean "ignores" nearsightedness and corrects astigmatism only? (Those are what I use for computer use, when I bother to wear them.)

Unfortunately, yes. But in my opinion a proper "homelab" requires microscopes, lasers, custom glasswork, etc.

Not the grandparent, but I buy produce at Costco, local grocery chain, Whole Foods, and local natural foods co-op. Aldi is basically the worst produce available, second to Walmart/Target/convenience-store. I used to go there for b

Especially considering that streaming seasons are 8 episodes. So 3 streaming seasons is only one full season.

Yes, you can see people who bookmarked a link (if they haven't made it private).

In these situations, the team is generally actively avoiding that skillset. When GP leaves, they will happily rewrite all the widgets to use the current hottest framework and turn a blind eye to the greatly increased hardware requirements &

I regularly get recipes from real people who really make original (as far as recipes can be original) or adapted recipes. No, it's not plagiarism all the way down.

I feel like Actual should have way more users, but people were waiting to switch from YNAB until it had every unnecessary feature added. If they knew that postponing their subscription would end in the service shutting down, maybe they woul

Something being legal doesn't make it ethical. I'm also disgusted by this attitude of "screw you and the labor you invested to create and share this recipe."

Since you can't listen for incoming connections from a browser, most likely no. Coincidentally, Bolo networking was originally designed for serial networks like LocalTalk. The same network logic was used when UDP support was added. So

netatalk provides macintosh fileshare hosting services on unix/linux. It has nothing to do with this use case.

I used to swear by APC but they have really gone down hill in the last decade. The first rule of a UPS should be, don't burn down the house. So when buying a new unit this year I went with the brand whose consumer PFC-compatible model
