Counterpoint, if you have two monitors with different DPI scaling, window dimensions get butchered when moving between them

This looks awesome. Posting so I can read it later - the Mbin mobile site absolutely butchers your table, and I feel like submitting a bug report~

To quote Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 3, Line 87: “No”.

Stealing this to be annoying with

Thanks for the uncomfortable chuckle.

Odd, I’ve never had that experience. Maybe you’re using a VPN or something that makes your IP look more suspicious.

Validation level is set by server owners, you are unlikely to need to verify a phone number except in the biggest (and therefore spammiest) servers

Of course it’s Nexon.

I wonder how they figure the 0.6% if those systems aren’t sending telemetry via the internet. Is there an organization that does a hardware census or something?

At least on 10 it is relatively simple to disable Cortana and forget it exists. I can’t believe Microsoft is trying to make Copilot key a thing.

The Silicon Masterclass

Fuck WordPress, but also it kinda sounds like WordPress is more in the right here.

It’s not the scraping itself, but the purpose of the scraping, that can be problematic. There are good reasons for public sites to allow scraping.

They really decided to be annoying to the very end. Typical Kaspersky.

Scrolled too far to find this

That would seem to be a failure of your client’s or instance’s Markdown parsing. The link works correctly from Mbin.

Touch typing. Like I said I cannot find any reputable statistics. touchtypeit.co.uk claims “according to research” it’s less than 20%, but does not actually link any specific research. There are some other sites like it that are trying to sell you a product and list a low percentage, but I can’t find any actual studies or statistics

From the article:

Your eyes are your mouse when using the Vision Pro. When typing, you look at a virtual keyboard that hovers around, and can be moved and resized. When you’re looking at the right letter, tapping two fingers together works as a click.

So they were working backwards to determine the inputs based off of the observed eye motion.

I have a much less modern VR headset and you can definitely still type on a regular keyboard while you’re wearing it. You can’t see the keyboard though, so you need to be skilled enough to touch type. I can’t find any reliable-looking statistics on it with a quick search, but it seems like that is not a very common skill

On the contrary, I’ve had a USB cable last multiple phones before. I think the trick is to avoid using it when it’s plugged in as much as possible. Another common pitfall is that microfiber (pocket lint) can build up in the charging port over months and years, resulting in a poor connection. You can usually remove this by turning the phone off and using the tip of a wooden toothpick to gently scrape out the lint.

I definitely think they should include a cable in the box though.

that “virtual keyboard” sounds awful, glad the flaw was caught quickly lmao I would just use a regular keyboard while in the headset, but I suppose that doesn’t work for most people who need to look at it to type.

Can you please leave the whole “responding when you’re not the person who was asked” bit behind, thanks
