Same. I haven't seen this. And I hope I never do unless I specifically click a button to enable it.

Well, today I learned something. I've gotten my phone stuck in this mode (half of the screen hidden below the bottom edge) and just assumed it was an iOS bug.

I think your UI could use some work, funny enough. But I like the concept, it's just that the way the page and "game" works is not exactly clear.

Loadstar (a C64 magazine) for me is still the gold standard for magazines on disk. Every issue was a pleasure and so well put together.

That was my experience. For the recent rerelease I took my kids to see it for the first time in the theater. And we were treated to 20 minutes of spoilers before the movie started. Thanks, jerks.

These are what I miss most about my years living in Japan. I made them for my kids a few weeks ago and they adored them. You can buy plastic-lined seaweed sheets to fold the rice into, so opening them is almost the same experience as onig

I like how the website is as easy to read as a glossy magazine brochure in a gloomy cave entrance on an overcast day.

Accidentally read the last post first. My mind immediately jumped to copy protection as the purpose for that large nonsensical routine.

Wouldn't it make more sense for the switch to pattern 2 prefix matching to ignore the repeated characters? So if the user typed LLA the prefix matched would be LA (ignore the first L), not LLA.

Too true! For a recent video project I wrote a 300 line bash script to generate the ffmpeg arguments needed to accomplish what I was after.

In my case I'm working with very large uncompressed video. Files that are 1 hour and 300+ GB in size. I tried using Kdenlive but it choked. I'm not saying the CLI is easy to learn, but once you do learn it, you have a lot of pow

ffmpeg is such a joy to use, once you make it over the very steep learning curve. I'm making some youtube videos where I play through Demon's Souls flipping a coin to decide to equip items or not, and I wanted to have an onscreen

Looks great! Just had a go and the "physics" are off, at least compared to the original Boulderdash. Roughly 20 years ago when I wrote a Boulderdash clone, there was a test level floating around that you could use to verify your

The amount of research I had to do to buy my mother a new television that would work for regular antennae television and not require internet access was just ridiculous.

Without seeing the ads, I can still recall the music.

When I saw ads in the Windows Start menu, I switched to Ubuntu. Haven't looked back and life is good. Except that the command line command apt-get sometimes displays an ad for Ubuntu Pro...
