App Store search is so bad that I won't use their search at all anymore. I search the web and grab the link from the app maker's website.
I do the same, but I switched from cert-per-subdomain a couple of years ago. They're either using Passive DNS logs or a historical dataset.
> Keep track of which apps had been opened every month, only pay the subscriptions for the ones I’ve opened, and allow me to set monthly limits. That turns app icons into land-mines though. Idk what the happy medium is,…
36 bays and only 24T of storage? Can't you get that in a single disk that costs less than a kilodollar?
I have a pool heater and an air conditioner, and I'm running both at the same time. They're fifty feet apart, but this thought crosses my mind constantly.
What do you mean? I ask because I find Apple's wired EarPods to be less... selective than AirPods are—by that I mean they'll pick up more background noise whereas AirPods seem to only transmit my voice—but EarPods'…
I was looking at roughly the same, m5 max, 128G with 4T. It was ~$6000 out the door. The same config on their site is now $8000 before taxes and AppleCare. A couple weeks' notice would've been nice.
That'd be nice, but I'd even settle for the plain pdf attached to the email.
That was the point as I read it. Payload signature verification is a good and sometimes desirable alternative to transport encryption when the payload itself isn't secret. Highly-cacheable resources like game and OS…
I saw a helpful ad once. The organic search results didn't offer what I needed at all, but the ad took me straight to an e-commerce site that sold what I wanted. I had it in my hands at a reasonable price about 5 days.…

That is absolutely fascinating. I'm gonna have to pay attention the next time I open an iPhone box. I'd bet they're sitting on their faces in the box. I really wonder how the wireless data transfer works.
They did?
I thought it really excelled at displaying the timeline—it was quite novel to see a timeline for a video I was watching that didn't occlude any part of the screen—but quite annoyingly it would go black due to…
I've wondered for a while if it would be possible to do that with a USB FXS adapter[1], and something like a Pi, but you'd basically need a soft modem of some kind to make it work and the only module for Asterisk isn't…
I'm sure the UX would suck, but you could use hcl2json[0] and then transform that to YAML. [0]: https://github.com/tmccombs/hcl2json

A number of years ago I wanted to drop a webhook when a call came in on VoIP.ms but couldn't find any way to do it natively. Ended up sticking a twilio endpoint in the ring group with a "press 1 to accept this call"…
I've seen a few apps that run locally on Android and hook into the ADB connection over loopback networking to do certain things. This just adds the step of "download Cool ABD Installer from the play store" to the set of…
You're absolutely.... that's a tired joke at this point. Sorry. Just brainstorming, but I suppose that account/karma farming is still useful for the people that do that sort of thing. Engaging in a heavily on-topic way…

I remember watching a video of a guy doing that to a display phone at an Apple Store. While that action was definitely not a good idea, it did encapsulate just how polished that jailbreak[1] was. The UX was identical to…

Thank you for dropping this link. I opened ghostty for the first same, then when preferences dropped me into a TUI editor with no syntax highlighting I closed it and reopened iTerm. I liked the idea of a fast new…
