I might be able to help you with that. Whilst holding Meta (Windows key), try left and right-click-dragging on a window. Left-click-drag moves the window, right-click-drag resizes it. Great feature imo, for me, this flow solves any resizing

There is more nuance to this. Let me give you a better example that actually happens — SSDs. Manufacturer will tell you some miniscule amount of specifications, such as that the drive reads and writes some amount of MB/s. That's b

Agreed, I have personally come to the same conclusion. I do not encrypt the drives in my home desktops and servers so that the recovery/migration is easier when the time comes. The risk of someone stealing my desktops from my home is v

The chat interface has the disclaimer "AI responses may include mistakes." and that appears to be enough to relieve them of any responsibility for the responses. In a similar manner, wouldn't it be enough to add a disclaimer

It is not very encouraging that most of the marketing materials on the website show the Googlebook having filleted (rounded) edges similar to Macbook Neo, but the video shows the laptop having a bevelled profile similar to framework 13. See

Your comment was surely well meant, but you could have plainly stated that the article author is a seasoned reporter instead of the snarky reply. GP might be incorrect in stating that the author is parroting Anthropic's marketing, but

Both can be right, unfortunately. People do not report stuff, but when they do, it tends to get ignored. I have personally stopped reporting feedback to Apple because my tens of bug reports with detailed reproduction steps were simply ignor

I think this practice is rather blatantly what you say. The same thing with HDMI forum folding HDMI 2.0 into HDMI 2.1. They made the new 2.1 features optional, therefore manufacturers were able to call their 2.0 devices 2.1 without actually

I don't really see your point. The chips mentioned do not have enough bandwidth on display outputs to support the monitor at 6K@120Hz. If anything, I find it surprising that Apple supports running the display in 60Hz mode instead of te

I recall that the official setting was everything grouped or everything ungrouped. What GP is referring to is probably the ability to break out a single window from a group.

If you are using MacOS, unfortunately, your issue is that you are using a 1440p monitor, not an issue with any one program. Apple has removed support for font rendering methods which make text on non-integer scaled screens look sharper. As
