The Borderlands movie came out last year and was largely met with derision, then indifference. What did the movie in? You’ll get a different answer depending on who you ask, but director Eli Roth thinks part of the issue was when it was made. In case you forgot, Borderlands began filming in 2021 during the early days of the covid-19 pandemic. Speaking in a recent episode of The Town podcast, Roth recalled how no one—specifically during that production, or Hollywood overall—”anticipated how comp

These days, Unixes are quite generous in what they make available through their packaging systems, so you can often get everything you want through packages that someone else worries about building, updating, managing, and so on. However, not everything is available that way; sometimes I want something that isn't packaged, and sometimes (especially on 'long term support' distributions) I want something that's more recent that the system provides (for example, Ubuntu 22.04 only has Emacs 27.1).

The blissful zen of a good side project Yesterday, like just about every other evening, my wife and I put our kid to bed, and sat down on the couch together. But for the first time in months, I picked up my laptop instead of my Switch. I don’t remember the last time I took a new side project at all seriously, but a glance through my projects folder indicates it’s been at least a year since I spent more than a day or two on one. I found a few I didn’t even remember starting, it’s been so long.

I can tell you the entire story of the 11th-generation iPad by explaining the results of one benchmarking test. It’s called Geekbench, and it’s a cross-platform tool that simulates a bunch of real-world activities to give each device a score that roughly approximates how powerful it is. It’s not perfect (no benchmark is), but it can be revealing.

There were already several comments with people expressing various reactions, so I idly commented as follows: 1% of 100 is 1, by definition. So 2% of 100 is 2, 3% of 100 is 3, and 4% of 100 is 4. Halve things, so we have 4% of 50 is 2. The general formula can be derived, that X% of Y is (X*Y)/100. But that's equal to (Y*X)/100, which is Y% of X, and t

Part of what makes The Last of Us Part II so great as a video game is the dispersal of information.

In the case of one key character, though—Abby, played by Kaitlyn Dever—it’ll happen in a very different way.
