By the time my parents got me an NES I had nearly every game for the Intellivision II. The games were fantastic, but those controllers were pretty woof.
Not only is it noticeably slow even on powerful equipment, open bugs on Github go untouched for ages. I followed one for broken shortcut keys in a Save File dialog (https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/14145) that went unresolved for nearly a year.
I gladly paid for Sublime Text in order to avoid the mess that is Atom.
That's nice. Perhaps in the meantime they can instruct Lyft drivers on the proper use of parking spots instead of stopping in the middle of roads and lots with complete disregard to traffic around them.
Here in Austin the only issue I really have with Uber/Lyft is the Lyft drivers are sitting in the middle of the parking lot idling and blocking everyone who lives there. At very busy times they will just pull into the front road and block that too. It's not normal traffic.
I have many fond memories of Desert Combat / Battlefield 1942.
I actually went out and purchased a Thrustmaster flight stick to play that game. I was the best Blackhawk pilot, carrying guys into the battlefield, hovering over targets while my gunner mowed down the enemy. Great, great times. Battlefield 2 and on after that just weren't as fun for me.
At the time Qualcomm and Android were protyping Blackberry-looking phones.
It wasn't until late 2008 until the first Android smartphone came out, with a slide-out keyboard looking like an old T-Mobile Sidekick. And it was still a few years after that until we got the slick Samsung phones that people now associate as "Android phones".
I know 10 years ago is foggy distant old-timer memory for many of the younger tech industry types, but let's get a bit of perspective here.
I got to take a private tour of the SpaceX testing facility in Texas a few weeks back, I was a few feet away from the team installing the flight computers on top of the Stage 1 in the hanger in McGregor a few weeks back.
Amazing stuff to see in person, and really emotional to see the same Stage 1 launch today and land.
(On another note, the people in the hangar were listening to Katy Perry as they were working. Sorry guys, I had to.)

Yes, let's keep the government out of DARPA project.
Dispatch is still there, not sure what the concern is:

My very first video game at home.

"The ATOM editor works just fine."
Lol, no.

I thought Slashdot was suffering from a disturbing shift in the last few months, and now this.
This is incredible. And the fact it has +4 Insightful leads me to believe I probably don' belong on this site anymore.

Would be feasible, however the fan on my MBP would likely be too loud. :)
More practical to continue to run Windows 10 through Parallels but doesn't exactly fit the OP request.

Seems like they're doing pretty well these days.
The music industry should closedown the music it sends to Spotify and Pandora.
Let the streaming industry try to make their own content. I'd love to hear the crap that produces.
58 hits and I can't see a way to filter out the city/state.
So deep and fascinating.
"How about allowing the NRA, gun accessories, sport fishing, Christian services, ACLJ, right-wing news, etc to sell advertising."
I get enough of that crap shared from my family already.

Report: a minority of people bought one.
They're an ad company that places paid favored links towards the top of their searches, so yes they are a gatekeeper.
Seems like you probably shouldn't fly expensive droves in those areas.
Seems like the zero-day isn't High Sierra specific, seems kinda odd to tack this on to a headline regarding today's release.
The first iPhone was unveiled in January of 2007.

Feel free to scroll down to the million Surface Pro announcements these past few weeks.
Every day now on Slashdot. But I'll be marked as a troll again for saying so.

"Microsoft has joined [Mozilla, Google and Apple] in abandoning trust in their certificates."
So they're the last to do it and now it's a story on Slashdot?
I purchased mine in an Apple Store as I was Christmas shopping two iPod 20GBs for family members.
I was skeptical that I would need an MP3 player as I had Winamp and I was almost always in front of a PC.
The iPod Shuffle was just a little white USB stick on a lanyard. Turned out to be the gateway drug for me.
Since that day I've owned two iPods, an iPod touch, three iPhones, one iMac and one Macbook Pro.
What are you, some kind of Comic Sans?
