Or being able to forcibly terminate processes stuck in the "?E" state (The process is trying to exit) so that you don't have to power-cycle to restart the computer. That's only been a bug since, what...OS X in 2005?

Oh, for the love of mod points.

Is Windows 11 a subscription-based operating system? ++glad I'm not in the Microsoft operating system universe any more.

Why so?

We burned our credit cards years ago since they're engineered to keep you in debt. Now we only have debit cards for the brick-and-mortar establishments that only accept Visa. Can you believe there are places that actually refuse cash now?

For online shopping we have PayPal linked to a separate account for the purpose and never keep any money in it unless we're about to make a purchase.

If we can't pay for something with cash or Visa debit card in person, or with PayPal online, then either we don't need it or we're taking our business somewhere that does accept those payments. No skin off our nose.

You and your clients didn't buy physical goods. You paid money for access to virtual goods, you don't own them, and access to the virtual goods can be removed by their owners however and whenever they feel like it.

Nope, Humble sold out long ago. Maybe the first six or so Humble Bundles included any Linux or Mac titles, pretty much everything since then has been old and recycled Windows-only content.

I can't speak to the Linux content, but there's probably little point for Humble keeping the macOS games around any more because, almost without exception, their titles are 32-bit only. macOS Catalina and later are 64-bit only so you can't run any of these games any more without crappy Parallels/VirtualBox solutions or just by keeping old hardware around. I'm not defending Humble here because, as a customer, it's a pretty shitty thing for them to do but, as a developer, I understand that they can't go back to their suppliers and insist that they recompile everything for modern 64-bit systems. Especially when a lot of those suppliers are 1- and 2-person shops that probably don't even exist any more.

Don't worry, the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine has got you covered.

I don't normally plug things, but: donate today to keep this valuable resource online!

What does that achieve? If someone were intentionally being malicious then their code could detect that it's running in Jasmine/Karma/Protractor/etc. and behave normally, only going rogue when it thinks it could be running in production... or after some cut-over date.

There are so many pieces of software out there kludging two digit years into four digit years - most commonly converting 00-49 to 2000-2049 and 50-99 to 1950-1999.

Amazon policy probably varies considerably from country to country. I've bought "new" goods from random eBay merchants in Australia that on more than one occassion have arrived from "Amazon Returns" in Chullora, NSW. To be fair the goods looked like they'd never been opened and functioned as expected so I was happy with the discounted price.

I was curious about how they handle bridging over the tops of door and window spaces. From this KJZZ story it looks like they place aluminium extrusions to support the concrete and continue printing:

As a regular Teams user I can inform you that I only ever get any work done when Teams is turned off. People seem to think they can call/chat to you on minutiae just because there's a green status icon next to your name, an issue that's compounded when your company has staff in multiple time zones.

Come to /. for all your dupes!

As a regular drinker of coffee and tea during my day... what was I talking about again?

English isn't a first language for many people, or even a second or third one. I can forgive them missing the "breath of fresh air" reference.
