It was also fixed with a definition update in Windows Defender some time last month, so you probably have the update since these happen in the background and don't require any restart. You can check by going to: C:\ProgramData\Mi

Are we just ignoring that all their front page copy mentions blog/web before newsletter/email? If everything on their front page makes it seem like newsletters are secondary to web blogs, why shouldn't the writer be able to t

It doesn't stay off for me either, but after some digging on the internet, Wingman appears to be an in-flight wifi network on planes (which may not actually exist anymore and T-Mobile are in the process of removing from devices accordi

Better yet, I'm only choosing dumb TVs (if possible) in the future.

> To be fair, not being webshit is part of why their UI is usable (if not great) on low-end hardware. I have a TV with Roku built-in. It ran great when I got it in 2020, but it has gotten slower and slower to the point of being unusable.

Except that posted link does not back up their position. The money went to housing for the homeless, not to "alternative services to drug addicts". The author's entire point or claim in that article is Seattle is wasting mo

It has supported GTK3+ for years now. I'm not familiar with the specifics, but GTK3/4 applications run fine.

The replacement makes much more sense to me. Thank you for the explanation. > Same thing as the Pi at the bottom right of every page on Reddit I'm always on Reddit and never noticed the Pi. Thanks for the trivia as well!

I really like the animations. Well done. > https://bvckup2.com/wip/r82-rabbit-hole.gif This one does confuse me though. Why not have the sidebar display permanently instead of hiding it within a drop-down? There alr

Can't general problems be reduced to decision problems though?

I don't have a problem opening other *.dev sites. I should note that I couldn't open the link on iOS Safari over LTE.

Isn't the M2 Pro more power efficient than the M1 Pro? At least it is according to [1]. So isn't it further away compared to the M2 Pro, not closer? Or are you saying that the M2 Pro is closer in performance to the Ryzen 9 than th

It could, but I won't hold my breath. I've fallen into the trap of being optimistic that some annoyance will be fixed or some obvious improvement will be implemented in iOS <next_version> multiple times and ending up disappo

I didn't even notice that the dialog title, "Use this account everywhere on this device", isn't really presented as a question. Thanks for pointing that out. Windows is full of dark patterns, so I don't really know

I'm a little late in responding, but I want to correct my previous comment. It appears that I linked and quoted a section from a title specific to the Department of Education. Instead, [1] applies to all federal agencies. It appears th

I've changed things in Group Policy (e.g., disable Bing/web search in Windows search) because there's no user-facing setting to disable some things and mine says the same. If you've done similar or used any debloat/

Not to mention that the opposite is also true where a large number of "native" apps are really just wrapped up web apps and many suffer these same issues.

Now if only they'd create a separate folder for web apps in the App Library to put them in instead of requiring that they be on the Home Screen.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is another example of an open-world with ridiculous attention to detail. It's certainly rare to have such a detailed open-world and a really good story.

For revenge/catastrophe movies, the transition from 1 to 2 is changing what the character "wants". That original desire isn't the actual desire that drives the actions of the story. For example, John Wick wants to grieve

If you're on Windows, I've seen a few spectrogram skins for Rainmeter that uses whatever audio is being played on the device. For example, there is AudioAnalyzer[0]. Personally, I've been using a skin that shows a simple wave

Google Translate and Google Photos are good examples, but YouTube Recommendations is absolute garbage in my experience. Heck, I'm not even sure it's using any sort of AI because it seems to mostly want to funnel me to the currentl

They could include both the improvement from the last Intel model and the previous Apple Silicon model, no? EDIT: I see they actually do just that for some specific applications.
