    "New Windows driver blocks software from changing default web browser"

    I honestly don't understand why you pass off anything that increases the time and effort to do something, no matter how small, as insignificant, but oh well.

    "New Windows driver blocks software from changing default web browser"

    Oh, trust me, if you were in my shoes, setting up 60 new laptops, you would understand. That time adds up quick.

    Windows users should try to be more open minded to try Linux

    I remember daily driving Ubuntu for around a year circa 2016. It was okay (the performance was phenomenal compared to Windows 10 on the same laptop), but I ultimately decided to switch back for a number of reasons: Constant debugging The Wi-Fi driver would fail every few hours and require...

    "New Windows driver blocks software from changing default web browser"

    I work as a system admin and this sounds terrible. It means, I'll have to dig into Windows Settings and set the default browser manually every time I set up a new company laptop – and I do that a lot. It will also prevent browsers from having a ‘Set as Default’ button pop up at first launch...

    Gaming Hardware Misc What Will happen if?

    If you can notice the difference, then a person handling real Joy-Cons all day definitely will.

    Gaming Hardware Misc What Will happen if?

    I would assume they would just realise it's not their product, not subject to their repair policy, and send them back. Confiscating them would be theft – the controllers are your property. Them sending back a real pair could be a possibility if they don't realise and tend to just exchange them...

    [Release] PS Wiita - Wii U Emulator for PS Vita/ PSTV

    I haven't touched this project in a while, but it should work from what I remember, unless something broke in newer Android versions that came out since*. Sony makes both the PS Vita and Android phones, so the two operating systems are actually quite similar. You should just be able to rename...

    Fake Nintendo Switch charger

    You said literally nothing in the first post, so I'm gonna assume based on this statement. Did you break your stock charger and order a knock-off in hopes of salvaging parts from it to repair the original? If so, good luck with that. The Switch uses a nonstandard charging protocol which makes...

    Suggestion Bionic reading implementation

    It doesn't help with ADHD – it helps with reading. I'm familiar with the concept and felt its effects. Basically, emphasising the first syllable of a word triggers your brain's ‘auto-complete’ so that you can recognise the word faster and know what it is without reading the full word, making...

    Suggestion Bionic reading implementation

    While I don't use extensions like the one you mentioned, this sounds reasonably easy to solve with a script (and therefore a bit unnecessary to implement on a site-level). I'm not sure why your extension forces reading mode onto the site – simply forcing any word-starting character to be bold...

    GBAtemp V8 / tempStyle 3.2 feedback thread - post bugs or feedback here

    I'm not sure whether this is a problem specifically with the new design or something more underlying, but here goes. I have notifications for new threads turned on for the Site Discussions subforum. Often, spammers will post their threads there which are promptly deleted, but the notifications...

    New reaction emoticons, for dropdown on posts

    I seem to be on the opposite end of the spectrum, then, because I mostly only tend to use the Like emote. If my memory serves right, the possibility of adding more emotes has been discussed before, but turned down as it could be a slippery slope: ‘If we're adding more emoticons, why not just...
