I'd love to be able to click on the progress bar to jump ahead or back in the flight path. Perhaps the display on the back of the seats could show the actual flight path imposed on a map, and we could click anywhere on that flight path to move the plane there.

When selecting departing and arrival airports at the beginning, it would be nice to be able to click on the map to select the airport, useful if you don't know the airport code or the name.

Allowing unmoderated real-time chat with all visitors is certainly a decision.

The low resolution didn't bother me too much, but the controls made this completely unplayable for me.

I encourage people to try Unciv. It is the best open-source Civ clone for desktop/mobile.

Unfortunately some of the elements aren't compatible with DarkReader.

Obligatory reminder that Brave has been caught doing nefarious things such as 1) injecting cryptocurrency affiliate links into your pages; 2) installing paid VPN software without consent; 3) injecting their own ads into pages; 4) scraping and reselling data; 5) their website taunts browsers that use Mozilla user-agents; 6) and more. With that sort of immoral development team, I wouldn't trust their browser or products.

I wish these courses would also provide the answer sheets or tell you where to find them. How am I supposed to check my work and verify my answers otherwise?

You can put the password manager on your phone or another device.

I use Syncthing.

> Counting your fingers; in dreams, you may not have 5 per finger

That sounds horrifying. 5 fingers per finger. Do those other 5 fingers also have five fingers per finger, like a finger fractal gone out of control?

> PPS: Here’s a link to a location on Mastodon where you can read this piece.

Said link immediately redirects you back to Wordpress.

I use a certain extension. An update turned the extension into payware, locking 90% of the features behind a paywall. So I refuse to update it and instead continue to use the revision that still has all the original features. I would be absolutely incensed and outraged if my browser insisted on forcing me to update this extension!

Surely there are better ways for a developer to make money off of an existing extension without suddenly locking previously available functions behind a paywall. Perhaps instead paywall NEW features? Or ask for donations?

Windows Terminal is not unique to Windows 11. You can install it on Windows 10.

As for containers, you can install Docker or Podman or some other container infrastructure. The Windows versions of them have hooks into the Windows OS too.

TLS 1.3 can be enabled in Windows 10 by toggling a registry key.

Running an end-of-service OS such as Windows 7 means it's very likely that there are plenty of unpatchable zero-days for it. Being forced to upgrade probably made you safer and reduced your attack surface.

I completely agree with you about Windows 11's unusability. However, Windows 10 will be end-of-service in a year and that really sucks. I have been clinging to Windows 10 and I do not look forward to being forced to upgrade. But it's better than having a system that no longer has security updates and has tons of nation states looking for/already hoarding zero-days.

At least the password manager I use has solid encryption. I can control where the file lives and what file permissions it has. For instance, I can keep it on a USB stick that I only insert when I need a password and then remove the stick afterwards.

I do not remotely whatsoever trust Microsoft or Windows to keep their Recall database secure and offline. Attackers will know exactly where the file is, unlike with my password manager. There's no shortage of Windows privilege escalation exploits to gain TrustedInstaller status to read any file on the system.

IMO the NYT goes too far with its copyright/trademark claims. A few months ago several small-time amateur hobbyist Wordle-clone GitHub repositories were deleted due to NYT DMCA takedowns.

The NSA has contributed many things such as SELinux and more.

While Higher Order Perl had a lot of neat tricks, they were quite useless in production because they would slow things down significantly with all the subcalls.

This isn't actually running DOOM. It's basically just taking DOOM "screenshots" and rendering them with the cells. It also takes 70 minutes to render a single screenshot and then 8 hours to clear the display.

Take a look at LibreWolf. It "standardizes" all fingerprintable variables (canvas size, fonts, etc) so that you look like anybody else with a default config.

The C specification mandates that new keywords use _Keyword naming conventions to ensure backwards compatability by not overriding potentially existing identifiers in codebases. That is why the C specification has reserved identifiers that begin with an underscore and either an uppercase letter or another underscore.

Typically, a <stdkeyword.h> header is included that contain macros to provide the lowercased variants. I.E., this is how _Bool was implemented; <stdbool.h> provides the lowercased `bool` variant.

Wow, this is very cool. I hope to see this early concept refined and improved upon!

As someone who is keeping Windows 10 and skipping over Windows 11, I'm wondering if my Windows 10 key will be usable to freely upgrade to Windows 12. Assuming Windows 12 is worth installing...

Be nice if the dropdown guess box of several dozen options was at least sorted alphabetically.

Works in my Firefox

Those pop-ups are annoying and distracting.

Ew, endless infinite scrolling. Individual pages are so much better.

Misleading title. Bottom of article says it was originally published in 1997 edition of Reader's Digest.

Medical debt falls off your credit report after 7 years.

So, we're posting commits from almost 2 years ago as if they just happened today? Half of the comments in here can't tell it's an ancient commit; some people say celebrating saying "Glad they're finally doing this." What?

Bit ridiculous to see all the pointless spam/graffiti in the comments on that commit now.
