Await is usually there either because the performance doesn’t matter and the legibility is much higher with it, and/or because there are a series of asynchronous actions that depend on each other and await lets you write them as if they are sync because related to each other they are.

You will find yourself being that next person when you haven’t touched the code for a week and come back to add something and are like wtf.

Ebooks, audiobooks, music, could all work in that realm

I don’t think it even played in my country so…. How do they want me to buy it exactly…

It looks like Linux support is going to be actually actively looked at again soon with playnite 11, so there is still hope

I use playknight, though I still don’t buy from epic.

Play knight gives me an overview of all humble keys I haven’t used as well as gog, steam, epic, etc.

Just helps me make sure I don’t buy a game on sale that I own

Lemon bars 🤤

Graphic audio sells cds as well as direct downloads of mp3s or m4bs chapterized, or even flacc for a surcharge.

They do dramatized audiobook recordings with full casts, music, sound effects, etc.

They are very good

1blocker has so far been pretty good at keeping up with YouTube’s changes on iOS on the iPhone on safari. Safari on iOS has allowed full extensions for several years now.

I remember this being discussed when Apple first announced it because developers have to hand off graphics to the os so the os can do the divested rendering specifically because Apple didn’t want individual apps to be able to gather data about where users are looking.

From what I read of the portal64 project it did require owning the original (or having a copy of it) because it patches the assets from the base game.

Good notes has an option to revert to v5 and I haven’t had any issues so far staying on v5.

I thought they also had a one time purchase option for v6 but it’s been awhile since I looked.

They did the switch better then notability tried to do. Notability tried to switch otp users to their new plane after a grace period of a year. They caved to backlash and added a legacy plan for older purchasers.

Laws are only as good as the enforcers are financed. The irs has been underfunded a lot.

He didn’t even manage to donate all the money they claimed to have on their tax filings from over a year ago. There is another entire indie land after that at least.

So no. He hasn’t even donated all the money. His “apology” was also pretty much a non apology. “Sorry if you felt mislead”.

React is miles ahead of a bunch of much older frameworks businesses still use. I have projects being built new right now that use ui5 from sap. We have projects with spring boot with the templates in jsp.

I would much prefer a react project to ui5 or jsp. And businesses with long running projects tend not to like using frameworks that don’t have at least ten years of usage and thus some proven surviveability unfortunately.

Don’t know if it works for this but have you tried jdownloader 2? That’s what I use for most things. It can scrape pages and maintains a download queue

I managed to break this particular habit. A friend of mine commented about how she looks at people’s fingers nails… I stopped overnight. Got an actual set of files and keep them shaped and buffed. A little oil and they are nice and shiny without any polish too

Have you actually installed and run it? I know there were quite a few games that steam claimed couldn’t be run because of that and still did. I don’t remember if portal is one of them though.

Battleblock theater for instance says it can’t but still does.

Doesn’t portal already run on the Mac since forever?

I have the complete opposite feeling. The more I have to use windows the more irritated I am at it. It’s bloody irritating.

It has window snapping; sure that’s nice, but the default window snapping isn’t that useful for a power user and gets in the way of better window snapping from power toys. On the Mac I also have a third party (better touch tools) app to get custom snap zones that is better than even power toys fancy zones.

But the basic window snapping ends up irritating me more often than it’s useful. I’ll have a window that is on the left side and not half screen. I use window left, and instead of snapping to half it “helpfully” switches monitors.

Also I use multiple desktops. Windows couples all monitor desktops together. I can’t switch just one desktop. On a Mac I can swipe between individual desktops on each screen. This is way more useful to me.

Windows also has a better clipboard manager. But it’s to basic to be useful for me. Only saves 10 things. I install a manager that saves 1000s.

Windows power shell is awful. And worse is googling for how to do anything with a “command line” on Windows because you have to not only figure out what command line they mean but also what damn version.

I’ve had very little trouble switching between Linux and Mac with home brew installed.

Also Windows has a wierd file system. If I use the keyboard command to make a link to a folder it makes a bloody shortcut which a lot of programs ignore.

So instead I get to google what the windows equivalent is of a hard link and how to make one. It’s a junction link and you use the command line. Yay. The command line isnt nearly as helpful. It’s very different from Linux. So very little transfers.

And it doesn’t have history between sessions. “Power” doesn’t have history between sessions.

Mac at least has the decency to use a decent shell in zsh. Zsh is fantastic.

Also on the file system. When you get a select file for upload dialog, if you drag a file you already found in a file window to the dialog, it MOVES the file! Why! No instead you should apparently find the file again in the dialog or copy and paste the path which is way more steps.

On Mac I just drag a file to the select dialog and it auto switches to the location and selects the file. The thing I wanted to do.
