Notch. I don’t think there is any damage. It just seems to ”let go” whilst dragging much too easily

I recently got a (second hand) M1 MacBook Pro and the trackpad is surprisingly awful Compared to the last MacBook I had (a 2012 rMBP). I find it very awkward to drag things for some reason. I wonder if I am perhaps ”doing it wrong”

I have genuinely noticed how much cleaner the air has been since they introduced these charges, so I for one welcome this.

This reminds me of people who used Computer Modern to make it look like they had written their paper using LaTeX to get better marks. It usually worked

Macintosh Pus actually. At least I hope it’s a Plus. If they gutted a 128k or 512k that would be sad.

If you are a big company there are often ESCROW agreements for things like this. I have encountered the “data dumps” from time to time and whilst it’s “better” it’s not ideal. Half finished documentarian, virtual machines of mis-configured OS installs… it’s almost as if it was just a straight copy of the development environment as it was just as they made the final version of the software…

But it’s better than nothing.

Main issue I can see with this forcing open source would be libraries and frameworks licensed from others who would likely still be in business and wouldn’t agree to those parts becoming open sourced. See also WinAMP https://www.theregister.com/2024/10/16/opensourcing_of_winamp_goes_badly/

I used Vector Linux 3.2, which was Slackware based, mostly because it was a small(ish) download on my friend’s Cable internet connection. Shortly after I moved to real Slackware. This was probably 2003/4

The comment about new trains and old signalling is a bit weird, since on the Piccadilly they’re just adjusting signal positions so they can see them clearly from the new train cabs.

That said, there is a signal control upgrade in progress on the Bakerloo which will likely provide a little bit of uplift potential. On the Piccadilly they are planning to run 27tph with manual signals once they have the new rolling stock, since that has had the same control system upgrade a few years ago. That is getting to the limit of the signalling though.

Garmin watches come close?

Kinda surprising nobody thought to make a lightgun version of xkill. At least, a few minutes of searching and I can’t find anything

At this point I think that’s probably a feature

Yeah I take the tips off and only clean those bits. On my earbuds they have a pretty good mesh filter which stops wax etc. getting further into them

I use an ultrasonic cleaner with warm soapy water. Works wonders - they basically look new!

This reads like an AI response to me.

Mac OS has never used X11 as a primary display system. Apple had a version they supplied with older Mac OS X versions for people using older Unix applications (and half-arsed ports) but that’s been unsupported since 2012. You can install the modern “XQuartz” open source equivalent, but it’s still secondary.

There were supposed to be Regional Eurostar routes back in the 90s. They even tested running the trains up to Edinburgh and had a depot to support them on the east coast main line. It never happened then, so I can’t imagine HS2 will ever link up with services even if the physical track were to connect.

I think a lot of the people who were working on the Airports now work for Ubiquiti

Technically two?

What a terrible click-bait headline. They’re not deleted indefinitely, they don’t have a date yet. It’s a complicated problem and will take time so solve, but it’s by no means indefinite.

Victoria, Circle, District, Hammersmith and City, Metropolitan and the new Piccadilly Line trains (due soon) all have regenerative braking. The rest will follow as new trains are procured.

As anyone who travels on the Victoria line in the summer will tell you: it helps, but not much.
