I just read a post that said “don’t worry, we haven’t just abandoned Memmy”, which is great…but that post is two months old. What’s going on?

I was expecting something clearly offensive, like FUCK YOU shaved into his head, but nope....

My background is in telecommunications (the technical side of video production), so I know that 30fps is (or was?) considered the standard for a lot of video. TV and movies don’t seem choppy when I watch them, so why does doubling the frame rate seem to matter so much when it comes to games? Reviewers mention it constantly,...

I almost exclusively use Memmy on my iPad, so I didn’t notice this for a while....

I read this wondering if there would be something strange, or an overreaction. There’s nothing like that at all. It’s basically just a law that forces tech companies to respect people and their right to privacy. Most of it is common sense stuff that you think they should do without having to be told....

Sorry, I know this question has been asked and answered a thousand times, but I’ve read about so many apps lately that I don’t remember which has plans for what....

I just read a story on the Wall Street Journal. I don’t subscribe to the WSJ, and ordinarily would have been stopped by a paywall - however, @trashhalo was kind enough to post a readable archived link. I’ve run into this before, appreciated it each time, and hope it becomes standard practice when dealing with paywalled...
