Haptic feedback touchpad is vastly superior to the button style. Less force required makes it easier to move your finger while the "button" is pressed. Most higher end laptops use it as the standard touchpad these days. MacOS is a

Yeah, whatever pretenses gamergate started with, they got brushed aside pretty quickly in favor of right wing outrage politics. The beginning issue (games journalism being a big club of hollywood wanabes supported by corporate bootlicking)

I'm surprised I haven't seen a generic "turn a raspi into carplay" firmware or anything of that sort.

Is privacy a concern if the monitoring is locally processed? Apple claims it is. I say it's amazing how far we've progressed. We could've prevented an entire Seinfeld episode if cameras could warn the user of the presence of

They had to have known that free options like Jellyfin were on their tails and pivoted to a revenue model that doesn't rely on competing with FOSS

I imagine a lot of their users (like myself) use Plex because it was the best option 10 years ago and premium was $40 during sales

I personally just have a discord with myself as the only member. With their webhooks API you can even automate the PC side.

It's the unofficial "where's my mouse pointer" macro At least one DE I've used (MacOS? KDE?) even had it as an official macro that would make the pointer 10x bigger when you shook it

Put it where the capslock key currently goes. Not sure what purpose it serves these days.

most places ban exotic pets that are able to survive in the local climate to prevent invasive species from outcompeting the local feral cat population.

Recursed is really fantastic. There's puzzles in there that took a few days for me to solve

The Wii supports 240p, though, which is very hard to replicate these days.

Just goes to show how much our online behavior and trends are determined by algorithms. The translate button has been there for years, but I guess some engineer flipped the "show international tweets on the timeline" button last w

More important than healing is avoiding damage entirely. The keys to getting through noita are getting a fast wand to repel enemies and a wand that can dig through stone quickly. There are spell components with negative mana cost and cast t

USB-C devices tend to be mobile. Flexing and disconnecting are much more common.

Who said anything about multiple NICs? Ethernet port and Wifi modem in AP mode are more than enough

Any PC with a NIC is one VLAN and masquerade rule away from being a router

If the world were to truly come to those stakes, I would just forgo wireless entirely. Running Cat5/6 through the walls is barely an inconvenience, and cell phones are compromised by design, needing to communicate with a cell tower.

I don't think the hardware matters so much as the firmware, which is solved by installing OpenWRT on anything that supports it. If wireless security is the concern, maybe other people here know better but I don't believe anything

The average consumer doesn't want a router full stop. Their ISP hands them an all-in-one modem+router+switch+WAP box and they just accept that the internet lives inside of it. I have roommates who are engineers and I had to explain to

You can theoretically use any computer as a router. I've used a Raspberry Pi as a router through a single NIC with VLANs.

I do wonder what the reasoning is behind using safe colors for the Macbooks while giving the iPhone Pro bright orange as one of its three options.

The unique aesthetics give it immense nostalgia value. They literally don't make them like they used to.

I typically just forgo the knife and cut food with the side of the fork. Unless it's a particularly thick slab of meat, it works just fine.

I don't see this happening. Even today, I can place a bet on a prediction market that nobody women will give me a blow job tonight, a lady of the night then places a counter bet wagering that I will, and shows up at my house. Services

You'll look like a mega nerd if you pull that out in a classroom, assuming you even have the desk space. Not to mention the qol improvement of having your pen touch the screen you're drawing on.
