I've never had an issue with it crashing on Linux, but I've had this bug for months that causes the scrollbar to jump around. Usually it jumps up 10-20px every couple of seconds. I've tried removing all plugins, refreshing, changing mice, etc. until I had to switch to Brave.

Anyone else come across this issue? I'm using Solus.

I never remember where the "recently listened to" section is. Seems like an easy thing to get right.

Still, I prefer Apple Music's album-focused library to Spotify's playlist-focused approach.

For me, the most common scenario in which I'd want TouchID is when I have my phone resting flat on my desk. Depending on which phone case you may or may not have on your phone, the power button might be conveniently accessible. I'd prefer a version that didn't require me to lift my phone up off the desk in order to unlock it.

What content is available over 60fps? I don't think they ever released The Hobbit in 48fps, and that's the only movie I'm aware of that was filmed with higher fps.

Is this just for games?

Now if Safari would only do the same...

Most icons are generally tiny. Millage will vary, but they can speed up your site. Fewer requests for a slightly large page size.

Google routinely implements, fails to implement, and fails to deprecate features that align with their company goals (i.e. namely collecting lots of data). AMP, Browser Extension Manifest v3, cookie privacy features, ad-blocking features, file formats, and many more that most people have never heard of.

Happens all the time. Without Webkit and Gecko, the web would simply be "whatever Google wants to do". Having multiple browser implementations helps balance out whatever Google's agenda is at any given time.

I really liked the feel of my 2017 MBP. It just didn't work well as a portable, every day device because the keyboard was always breaking.

Seems great for blogs and marketing sites, especially if you've got a CDN in front.

I like the concept of the tab sidebar, but I can't get over having tabs in a different location. Even though I'm fully aware that I have more horizontal screen relestate than vertical, I never remember to use the sidebar.

I've wanted to use tab groups for a while, but it never stuck because of the UI. I'm hoping this helps, and I love that they offer a sidebar layout, too.

Looks pretty solid to me. Good demos of some common edge-cases.

I wouldn't say "all" the major frameworks, though (just Angular[JS] and React).

From what I understand, they also promised a bunch of features that were never implemented. Maybe they're still to come, but it sounds like they are months away from fixing all the bugs, let alone implementing better AI and other things players complained about.

I bet it would have been met with less backlash if they delayed only the PS4/Xbox S versions. Players must expect some Day 0 bugs from games this large.

I tried it. Auto-import never worked reliably. I asked their customer support for help, and they said I should just do it manually.

They seemed like a close alternative, but if I'm doing all this work manually, I might as well use a spread sheet for free.

I feels like Heroku 8 years ago. Cheap to get started, but I never recommended it for startups with a tight budget. You can get stuck with an architecture that becomes very expensive very quickly, and that scares me.
