I want something like Os/2 Warp. Something with a design principle other than “make it look slick and hide stuff”. Look up CUA too.

I felt the same about GPT-5.2 on High. It did all I asked and it did it good and cheap. Too bad it’s no longer an option at all.

I wonder if this is something the iOS Facebook app also does? It constantly pauses my Apple Music playing. Soooo irritating.

If you’re on iOS, get Wipr adblocker. The page was very clean för me. No ads.

These new models consume so many tokens. I’m very satisfied with GPT-5.2 on High. I hope they keep that one for many years

If you play with friends and your cheats cooperate, I don't think honeypots would be fool-proof any longer. Unless you all get the same fake data.

Perhaps not related to the article but I find it puzzling that Bluetooth in 2026 still sounds like a fax machine when you use the mic too. That and a much too high latency in general.

Looks perfect here. iOS Safari

OK, you might be right and I got it backwards. It still felt wrong at the time before I got enough points.

StackOverflow didn't feel like a welcoming and humane place the last 10+ years, at least for me.

Actually I think it never did.

It started when I was new there and couldn't write answers, just write comments and then got blasted for writing answer-like comments as comments. What was I supposed to do? I engaged less and less and finally asked them to remove my account.

And then it seems like the power-users/moderators just took over and made it even more hostile.

I hope Wikipedia doesn't end up like this despite some similarities.

I don't get why Nvidia can't do both? Is it because of the limited production capabilities of the factories?

Ever thought of writing an emulator? On Reddit theres /r/EmuDev which is a nice place.

For example you could start by writing a CHIP8 emu, then a Space Invaders Emu. After Space Invaders most people write a Game Boy(almost same CPU as Space Invaders and hardware is well documented) emu, but you could try to do a 8086 PC if you want to know more about "real" computers.

There are free BIOS you can use, and FreeDOS, and then rest of the machine is pretty well documented.

I started a SvelteKit project last year.

The compiler and preprocessors are very picky about accessibility issues like these.

It was annoying in the beginning, but I tried to follow the rules it set out. It feels very professional, and I’m thankful for the guidance.

What’s annoying now is when my coworkers thinks I’m making things unnecessarily complicated by trying to follow these rules and guidelines. A <div> with an onclick is so easy compared to a <button> with extra styling and sometimes calling preventDefault().

Funny, and the persistent memory-image everyone outside the Smalltalk/Lisp community seems to hate, it's your normal filesystem now.

Did you ever play Nebulus? The ZX Spectrum version looks as good as the C64 version, just less colors. Nebulus is from 1988.

I doubt that. It takes more or less 100% CPU on the scanlines affected.

This was damn cool. Watching and listening to it I wonder what is the hardest. Producing video with a sound chip or producing audio with a video chip. Fun stuff.

I like good pixel dithering. The C64 demo scene has become really good at it. Just look at the girl picture in the frozen start pic. That shows really good taste in picking colors from the weird palette too.

Who is the other one?

Here's Jochen Hippel's(Mad Max in the Atari ST demoscene) use of the AY's on the Guryss hardware(x3 AY). It's a quite lovely tune. They use timers to make "buzzers" and "SID-sound".

Years ago I had iPhone 3GS and iPhone 5. I remember being amazed how fast I could type on it. Today I simply write "I'll write a better answer on the computer later".

Would be possible to describe a modern CPU in something like TLA+ to find all non-electrical problems like these?

Here's a 60fps video of the same demo. The demo-sceners work really hard to make everything 60fps(1 vbl), so watching it in any other frame-rate feels wrong.

For this Amiga demo it's mostly just the sound mixing the hardware handles. On a PC, mixing a couple of sound channels is pretty quick.

Install Wipr. It works rather well.

Only downside is it doesn’t work inside webviews.

What's the metal on it? Lead?
