People have been slagging off the battery indicator design on macOS Big Sur. I agree the design is SHIT. But then I saw this on Reddit and was amazed at how easy it is to improve...

From my (months) of attempts and research, if you wanna stick to the vanilla 9x, then for the Windows 9x I am using Netscape 9.0.0.6 with Roytam1's NSS patches (available somewhere in this forum) and also Roytam1's Retrozilla browser as a second option.

I just checked out UTM on github and the developer is indeed looking forward to port his app to macOS. Theres a GOOD chance UTM will provide x86 emulation for macOS Big Sur through QEMU. Not sure how the performance will be but by judging how Windows XP and 7 runs on latest iPad Pro (youtube videos) …

Invited the family over to my place for a Canada day pancake brekky! w00t w00t! I love pancakes. I can enjoy it with anything over it, from a simple butter, to jam and why not peanut butter... yummy. I ate these things (the toppings, not the pancakes) with waffles some weeks ago. Do you like bacon …

The only reason why Apple hasn't put a Wacom touchscreen into their Macbooks is that they're afraid to kill the iPad sales. Why buy a tablet when you can get a notebook that is also a tablet? I might even switch to Apple if they had a similar device to my ThinkPad L390 Yoga which is very versatile. …

I wouldn't use a pen on a phone - but on a tablet yes. My mother is an architect and has a Lenovo Yoga with, uh, I believe it is, because I've tried it once, a touch screen. She never uses it (the touch screen). But yea, this model can flip around and turn into a tablet so you can touch it and even …

How about mice vs touchpads? I'd rather use a touchpad, but for things like Photoshop I need a mice because of some level of precision (Yes, I am that picky with each pixel I design). Unless I have a touch screen with a pen, then I don't need a mice anymore. All I need is a keyboard, a touch screen …

IMO the use of touch screens varies according to who is using. We obviously don't need every screen to be touch screen. For example, designers and artists would love it, especially with a pen. I for one like it for my UI/UX designs. And having a screen this big with touch instead of buying a bulky …

I have a pen and I used my 2nd gen iPad Pro to design one website and a few logos professionally. I have to say, I can do my work mostly from there. Just give me access to a cloud server and I could perfectly develop an entire site out from my iPad Pro. The tools for that are there: Vectornator X, …

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I don't get that hate either. I use for web development related work stuff. And sometimes I like to get into retro gaming. I used to be a pro simracer, might even go back one day but not sure.
