  • The article doesn’t list the infected site. So, if you want to keep yourself safe by avoiding it, well… fuck you, I guess.

    Edit: just skimmed through the original Group-IB report and they redacted the name of the site. Not the article’s fault that millions of people are still in danger to this malware.

  • Kind of. They look the same, but don't act the same. Folder don't show their contents until you double click them. They act like any other file in that way. One click to select. Double click to open. I like the more basic one click functionality for browsing.

  • Columns became the dealbreaker when I was considering switching from macOS to Linux. I need my columns.

  • I absolutely love Espanso. So much faster than TextExpander and I like that it's config is plain text files.

    You're insane though if you think Inkscape is better than Illustrator. I'm not an Adobe fanboy by any means, but it is a really good (if bloated) product.

  • It's absolutely possible, though. MPV has it. It definitely takes longer than going forward, and sometimes I have to press the "back one frame" shortcut 2-5 times per frame. But, it does exist.

  • The 18-30 demographic in this country is notorious for not voting. It’s been a thing for a long time. Which is part of the reason politics is so conservative*.

    MTV was running the “Rock the Vote” campaign 30 years ago, in attempts to get younger people to vote. This is not a new situation at all.

    *There are younger conservatives, but the younger demographics tend to skew liberal/progressive.

  • Firefox has been very good (better than Chrome) for several years. Ever since they released Quantum.

  • There's nothing special about it. It's just the extension in a larger format. I've tried to use it a few times, but there's no gain over the extension. And, typically the extension is better because I already have my browser open, so I don't need to open a new app.

  • Communism =/= leftism. It's an extreme form of socialism.

    My biggest problem isn't even the communist ideals. Have your ideas, that's fine. I don't care.

    My problem is the amount of people coming into post comments attacking American Imperialism® on posts that aren't even related to communist ideals or, sometimes, that don't even mention America. It gets tiring reading how much America sucks when that's not even the point of the post.

  • Where do they claim it was theirs? macOS is FreeBSD at its core, but Apple has built a lot of shit on top of it. It’s absolutely not FreeBSD with a name change.

  • Wow. Since you didn't list the prices, I went to the links to check them out. Only $15-$20 to get a fully customized set of playing cards? That's way less than I expected and I think I came away with some Xmas ideas.

  • Absolutely not. My 65+ year old parents just cut the cord recently because they were paying over $250 for cable. They now pay around $90 for Hulu+Live and get almost everything they had before, with a couple of small exceptions.

  • Prestidigitation

  • I set up hot corner to disable the screensaver. It also keeps the screen awake.

    Go to Preferences > Desktop & Dock > Hot Corners (button at the bottom).

    Then set your preferred corner to "Disable Screen Saver."

  • Everyone complaining this isn’t funny doesn’t realize this was peak comedy in 1985. You are all just jaded.

  • These aren’t even minor versions. They’re patch releases.

    This update fixes 4 bugs that affect very few people.

  • Not wearing gloves could be a tactile thing. I wear gloves when cleanup would be a real hassle without them (wood finishing, working with epoxies), but I prefer not to when possible because I can’t feel what I’m doing as well.

  • Good for you. My oldest backlog task is from 2012. And that was imported from the previous ticketing system (AKA an Excel Sheet).
