I'm a bit of an old-timer now (almost 45), but I enjoy a lot of the classics on GOG. And at a price that can't be beat. Totally no interest in playing modern games.

In case of many commits with also many complex merge conflicts, I often find it easier to just: 1. Abort rebase. 2. Squash all my commits into a single commit. 3. Rebase on target branch again.

No, for a long time I never clicked. But since I keep seeing the freaking ads, I decided to click on them, because from what I understand they have to pay money for each ad click.

There's apps that can simulate color blindness, which can be used for testing purposes. This is such an app for iOS / macOS: https://michelf.ca/projects/sim-daltonism/

At least AI seems very useful to quickly write unit tests for the stuff I work with these days, like Angular & C#. P.S.: I loved Glider and Glypha, great games!

On iOS I have seen ads with very small close buttons, so clearly intended to cause people to miss-click. Buttons should be 44x44 pixels, it’s recommended in the human interface guidelines [0]. —— [0]: https://developer.apple.com&

In the context of Lua, I’ve taken a liking to LuaLS (Lua Language Server). You can just write your Lua scripts with annotations (where needed) and the language server can help auto-complete and verify type usage. No compilation step needed.

Luckily I haven't had any emergencies. But in Thailand recently there's been flooding in the south, many people stuck. And in eastern part many people have been evacuated due to border tensions with Cambodia. I live in the north-w

I'm just a Dutch guy that emigrated to Thailand, but I'd never trade my Toyota Hilux diesel for an electric truck. I don't want to have to rely on electric to be able to drive my car. A hybrid could be ok though. The nice thi

I loved World of Warcraft for many years, but kind of stopped playing during Cataclysm. And it's kind of weird, but I preferred the old-style questing (many repeated quests and perhaps less streamlined experience) compared to what came

I'm also not a fan. Due to your point regarding code branches, but also because I just don't find the code very readable. I think Result<T> has its use, but I don't think this is a particular great example.

You can setup a private VPN with Digital Ocean and a PiHole droplet. I guess it's a little bit less likely to be a honeypot. It also seems cheaper than any public VPN offering.

Of course a digital id doesn’t prevent illegal immigration. Proper border checks prevent illegal immigration. The digital ids are introduced for other reasons - this is something Tony Blair has been pushing for a long time.

Just something like an INI file might be fine for most use-cases as well and is easier to reason about.

I don't think you can expect any major UI changes in Tahoe at this point. Maybe the next version of macOS will return to its desktop roots a bit more.

Yeah, my experience with LÖVR [0] and LLM (ChatGPT) has been quite horrible. Since it's very niche and quite recently quite a big API change has happened, which I guess the model wasn't trained on. So it's kind of useless for

I noticed the app section included VPN. Recently I've been looking for some VPN solution and found that many are quite expensive, though often you get a decent enough discount if you subscribe for like a year or longer. Also, I believe

I feel the Mac way is preferable, if possible. Download a package (disk image) - macOS automatically extracts to the desktop. Drag and drop the application from the disk image into the /Applications directory. Done. This is the way, I
