But is the new Affinity app quite literally feature equivalent? Is there anything the latest version of Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo Desktop edition can do that the new combined Affinity app cannot do? That's my only concern.

I agree with you. When I read that my first thought was "the one area"? Personally I think its the complete opposite, like really strongly. like really really strongly. I'm certain for at least 10 years now, once a week I thi

What Lenovo model + screen option do you have that is better than the M1 Pro 16 inch screen? I've yet to see anything better.

Randomly found this while searching around about the history of Windows XP. Has anyone made a collection of sites similar to this? I've been seeing so many great ones lately like old Mac ones.

One thing that I notice nobody mention about VMWare on Windows is what about the issues with "Virtualization Based Security"? If you have this enabled VMWare uses "Windows Hypervisor Platform" which I think is also tied

I hadn’t before looking it up, and my mind immediately autocorrected “Hyperlight” to Silverlight.

How about like 10-15 years ago when everybody and their mother could spin up a RAT and do drive-by installations with a webpage?

I had this exact same experience with a brand new Dell XPS 15 I purchased around 2018 I believe. It came with a killer branded Wi-Fi card and I noticed shortly after purchasing that it would literally bring down my entire home network at th

I’ve actually had some strange anomalies happen like this on a couple laptops I have. Rebooting or even holding the power button long enough to do according to the manufacturer some kind of CMOS or hard reset didn’t work either. I had to op

This seriously makes me want to dual boot Linux just to try. I think I'll add it to my todo list on a free weekend.

I tried GlazeWM and it does what it says “technically” but there’s a lot of edge cases where it doesn’t and things just glitch out or don’t tile. Applications that don’t work well where you have to edit the configs per app etc. I settled on

The perfect keyboard for me has been the Kinesis Freestyle Pro. Split keyboard with all the keys you would want plus 10 macro keys on the left side you can map to anything. There is absolutely no way I could go back to using any other keybo

Firefox extensions disabled: 16.8 +- 0.59 Brave extensions disabled: 19.0 +- 0.88 Interesting because I have only 5 extensions. The heaviest extension seems to be Dark Reader which causes over 5 point changes.

The Firefox profile I'm using is no more than 3 weeks old. Fresh install of Windows was done around that time.

I tested this with Firefox stable release and Brave stable release, 3 runs on each. Same exact extensions across both. Highest scores across tests: Firefox: 6.34 +- 0.31 Brave: 11.3 +- 0.37 on Ryzen 9 7940HS + RTX 3060 mobile Which really s

Any source or further information for what makes you say there were engineers that that provided information? I always suspected some of the people in these communities were engineers but never discovered anything for my thoughts to make it

For me, it's just the amount of tweaking necessary in order to get things how I want one. 3 years ago I made multiple attempts to switch and stay on it. First issues were getting Windows applications to run. I tried Wine/Proton&#x

Shadowsocks and ShadowsocksR don’t work anymore in my experience in China or Iran. V2ray does which is the successor to those.

I believe this also applies to plain Beeper Cloud according to the Beeper Updates channel inside the app. Been a user since May of this year and it was working beautifully. RIP, end of an era. I just sold all of my Macs recently and don&#x2

I think I saw somewhere (somewhere in the Beeper updates channel) that Beeper Cloud switched to using their new method a little while back before releasing Beeper Mini, which would explain the cut off.

I can definitely get 30C idle temps if I turn off the dGPU but I use it most of the time docked up to external monitors which forces the dGPU to run. At that point with my usual programs open I'm at 65-90C depending on what I'm do
