Buying a mini pc to install Delphi
Lars Fosdal replied to Alberto Paganini's topic in Tips / Blogs / Tutorials / Videos
Intel Macs are going the way of the Dodo. It is all about ARM for Apple now. The Apple Tax refers to the premium you pay if upgrading from the base spec of an Mx based device. The cost is ridiculous. You could buy a second device for the price of the upgrades. Edit: ...and your average consumer cannot upgrade the device by themselves. -
I don't use the EL dialog nor do I capture screenshots. @Attila Kovacs But, in EL Options, under dialog: it looks like you can make screenshots mandatory? Disclaimer - I haven't tested it.

Same reasons that Anders mentioned. Also, Amazon has a brutal grip on the market, and is killing off the competition. For books, I've opted to pay more and order them from a local bookstore. -

Does it always fail on the same parameter? I'd probably do it like this, but it depends on the declaration and description of the GetOptParameter method. var FNameOut: AnsiString; begin ... FNameOut := UTF8Encode(ParamName); if FDSBase.GetOptParameter(0, FieldNo, @FNameOut, ParamType, ...

@RDP1974 - Please change the title of the post to reflect the content - "new test" does not inform those that read the list of topics -

These days I avoid shopping at Amazon. The new MacMinis look amazing - but yeah, the Apple Tax is brutal. -
Reduced performance with multiple threads may have many reasons, suce as race conditions, lock contentions, cache depletion, etc.

I've never tried anything similar, so I can't really pinpoint the underlying problem. Any suggestions, @Dave Nottage?

Are you targeting 32-bit or 64-bit Android?

@A.M. Hoornweg It is always helpful to indicate what kind of error you get, and where you get it. -

Less hearsay/leaks - more acknowledged facts, please. -

"rabbit whole" ... /sigh Yeah, I guess it is... still, it is a far cry from clean code.

Feature enhancement request - Filter DFM properties
Lars Fosdal replied to pyscripter's topic in GExperts
We've given up on HighDPI. It is just not worth the effort and grievance for a project that has entered care and maintenance, even if the users would greatly benefit from it. -
I've gone even deeper down the rabbit whole and referenced object instances through the tag... I am not proud of it.
