    Doesn’t work for me on Firefox mobile. Neither “mobile” site or Desktop versions. Hitting “Next/Enter” on my keyboard does nothing, there is no Submit button that I can see, and refreshing the page just resets all fields to defaults.

    I don’t want an Intel with 4gb RAM and a 256GB spinning drive, and OS included? No dice, that’s what I’m offered. Without being able to filter results, its just another craigslist/amazon/newegg front-end … a less useful one.

    EDIT: Turns out there are zero fanless non-Intel, 16+GB RAM, 1024+GB SSD/eMMC offerings with USB-C to list. Strange no-one is packaging an OrangePi 5 Plus like so, but I haven’t seen a fanless heat-sink sufficient to make that a good idea anyways.

    I had tweaked some of the options, but without clearing either-or-both of those last two, especially “fan-less”, all I was getting was the five sponsored “results” the top, which changed just enough to make it seem like that’s all the results I could get.




  • Who said anything about setting up a tax deduction? I’m setting up an indirect benefit to others that counts as an illiquid asset. It’s not an investment since its purpose isn’t profit, and its not charitable since I remain in control.

    Pay attention to the genie’s criteria, and realize: for anyone actually trying to do some good, the IRS criteria might as well be so capricious and arbitrary. With that kind of money and a lot of these organizations, I would rather donate it directly, yes, but there are also plenty of organizations and causes where more money in the pot means more CEO and middleman pay. That, and the IRS, don’t have to count as a valid reason to withhold a single penny for someone that’s supposedly capable enough to have any business managing such a large amount.



  • First up: Capital gains Taxes. That’s $12,000,000 off the top. Next, buying the properties of all my favorite charities, museums, libraries, restraunts, stores, and setting up trusts to keep taxes and such paid on those in perpetuity … That alone should do it, within a large enough radius, but anyways … buy up the most inefficient air-planes, cruise-liners, cargo ships I can find and straight up ground/dock them or upgrade them to fix those inefficiencies. Make sure the planes are never flown again, at least not at night.





  • When the variable name is the description that should be in the comments.

    Idea: Comments that automattically populate the end of any line a given variable is invoked on, including spelling out formulas from that line. ie: float y=mx+b // (cartesian y value)=(slope)(cartesian x value)+(cartisian y-intercept)

    “Duplicated” coments not actually in the file, but specified witt the creation of such variables and spread around by the code editor /IDE.





  • That’s my initial impression as well, but it also seems that they just don’t care, and will refuse to until its made clear to them just what a bad look this is, and nothing short of an accusation of impropriety has done the trick yet.

    I doubt english is their first language, but more importantly, it seems like there’s a culture disconnect versus mainstream western pr bullshit … which actually serves a useful purpose for once, in this instance.


  • The context menu would literally say “Move To”/“Copy To” and open either a further drop-down with potential destinations: … or a pop-over dialogue something like this:

    Originally Windows pointed this feature to users’ Downloads, Pictures, and Documents Folders, but as you can infer from the screenshots, the menu was configurable.

    I do not need and probably wouldn’t impliment this feature in a mobile file manager app, but I would be telling the OP I just don’t want to do it because its my app with my aesthetic/sensibilities in mind, NOT gaslighting/trolling them that its already implimented.




  • I’m sitting here like, in my old age I’ve seen things these script kiddies are apparently unaware exist. They will lie to your face and insist its not lying, so long as they can’t be bothered to learn any differently.

    All these idiots insisted the requested feature is in the app, so I tried it and found … MaterialFiles doesn’t have Move-to/Copy-to. It’s not a feature that even makes all that much sense(if any) for a mobile app, but damn, they should just say that instead of insisting its a feature their app already has.

    I have like eight different file-browsers on my phone, as each has one or more features the others won’t, or can’t impliment. ES File whatever - the only one that can set a file as a ring-tone. X-plore File-Manager - let’s me sort media files based on length, not just age, name or file-size … and also happens to be the only mobile file-browser I’ve seen with the feature requested in the OP.

    For my day-to-day, I use fx File Browser, and I couldn’t even tell you why. I’m of an age where I stick to what I’m used to until I’m forced into an alternative, and even then that one feature usually doesn’t make for a new daily driver. “Dev’s” like are crowding this thread are doing their best to make sure it stays that way. I’m ready to jump ship to a Linux phone because there are fewer (shit)devs writing apps for them.
