It's often more nuanced than that IMO. OSM in my experience is better at features (roads, hiking trails, and stuff like that), i.e. what's shown in that comparison screenshot. Google Maps is better at place-metadata,…
And Organic Maps is itself a fork of Maps.me, started ...due to concern over the governance of Maps.me (introduction of commercial elements I think?). This app has had quite a history.
I even (quite a few years ago) successfully ran an older version of Minecraft on a laptop released in 2003. That had a Radeon 9000 graphics with a whole 32MB of VRAM. And yes, it was playable with IIRC around 20fps,…
The ones in Spain often market themselves with their Chinese-ness: "Hyper China", "Panda Bazaar", "Maxi Barato (super cheap)", etc. would be some representative names & signage you see outside. They range in size from…
A question for OP: why did you choose Crunchy Data for your database, instead of Fly's own managed postgres offering? Because the latency between Fly and Crunchy Data must be quite high, given that they are probably not…
Im curious about this: because in my experience (working on smaller services though), a small number of errors is always there, as a "baseline". Recently there was this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47252971…
Hm, interesting. But the pricing page is quite confusing to me: the $39 "pro plan" says "Up to 8 instances running". And above that, "Pricing that scales to zero". But if I'm always paying $39, what's the point of…
On LAN (no internet, wired), it's quite decent. With e.g. Parsec, it's quite high image quality, low single digit latency, so quite usable.
They specialize in domains management for businesses who consider their domain to be _very_ important. Think Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Wikipedia... (all of those are listed as clients on the wiki page) As in "pay a lot…
What are you doing for DB backups? Do you have a replica/standby? Or is it just hourly or something like that? Because with a single-server setup like this, I'd imagine that hardware (e.g. SSD) failure brings down your…
Changing project framerate is apparently quite a hard problem, even DaVinci Resolve when you change it, warns you that you cannot change it for that project again. Probably internally everything in a project is…
Looks like it's using leaflet + map tiles from https://carto.com/ I think Mapbox also provides a similar looking basemap style.
There's even eSIMs specifically marketed as being a "backup" esim, with coverage on _all_ UK networks. At least on my android, you could set the second esim as a "backup" that it would switch to for data if the main one…
You can do this all in fly.io, no cloudflare container needed. The whole selling point of fly is lightweight and fast VMs that can be "off" when not needed and start on-request. For this, I would: Set up a "peformance"…
For at least some codebases, I'm not sure this is a useful metric. Because you don't usually put the whole codebase in your context at the same time. For example in my current case, there are lots of files with CSS, SVG…
Another option for anonymous mobile service: https://silent.link/ eSIM, global, variable pricing per country with per-GB billing, anonymous crypto payments and no KYC. Although it seems to not have some of the…
For another "clothing patterns as code" approach, see https://freesewing.dev/ - also with a more complete UI and editor.
This does happen: for example in Macbook repair, it is common to buy defective motherboards, in order to salvage the chips off them (which are apple-specific, hence not purchasable elsewhere). Those boards often come…
With ADSL: broken waterproofing somewhere along the line, water gets into the cables or connections == broken while it's raining. Then you call their customer support, tech comes out, it's not raining anymore and…
It's an interesting form of spam how theres a link for an online gambling site just inline in the text.
(some android phones: my Pixel can, Samsung can't, although it seems that other Samsungs do have it.)
It seems to be only on certain devices feature(?): on my Pixel it worked, Samsung phone just says "sorry, can't do that".
Antenna gain isn't everything: I've set up the LTE6 for people, and in some cases I was able to get more speed in the same location with the latest iPhone. In locations where you're at the edge of coverage, and your…
An Android port to iPhone hardware does actually exist (for iPhone 7): https://projectsandcastle.org/ Obviously not everything works, but someone did try.
Unfortunately: > this is a transmit-only proof of concept. So a not-very-useful NIC for your Nintendo switch.
