Seems like a pretty useless article. The first ding it doles out is for carrier lock-in. The original iPhone did it too with AT&T. I wonder how "The iPhone is 16 years old; it is the opposite of everything we want"…
> the over-50-page report is the culmination of two years of research by automotive industry experts. And smoking isn't habit forming, your honor.
A decision from middle school me when I got my first computer: hostnames are from fictional spacecraft. So I've had home servers 'enterprise' and 'endurance', my NAS is 'citadel' from Mass Effect. It's not useful, but…
I imported from keepass way back when I was getting started, and then never really went back to tidy. So either as a constraint of keepass or a self-imposed rule I had when using it (I don't remember) everything is…
(facetiously) Why are they adding AI? All I want is for the new blocks editor to stop covering up the text I'm writing with the damned pop-up dialog.
Daily manual driver here, if they made the fake shifter compelling enough I'd be perfectly happy using it. Tons of screens and fiddly options, now that's the fake stuff I wish they'd stop cramming into vehicles.
I don't follow Twitter stuff closely (or at all), but I wonder if this is a change from "number of accounts" to "number of page loads and requests with this tweet somewhere on them."
I got a bluetooth gizmo this week and tried to tie it into home assistant. Sensor values come in, but the battery level does not. The phone app shows battery level, so I know it's being sent. I'm looking forward to…
I do the opposite. Finding reddit links in a search result page just lets me know I'm in for a world of disappointment in modal pop-ups (on mobile), modal blockers to see the full comment thread, and then…
2023 and it feels like it's only gotten worse.
Article must have been written by chatGPT to be so verbose yet vacuous.
Neal Stephenson knocks another one out of the park. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termination_Shock_(novel)
Thinkpads are my recommendation. Have been using an X1 extreme for the past few years and love it. Really wanted to like System76 laptops, but at least in the ~2017 timeframe they just generally disappointed :-/
I remember seeing those inflatable "gator" antennas set up after a natural disaster in my hometown. I wonder what happened to those. As for starlink... Who doesn't love a disaster response tool that only works so long…

Professional level CAD software.
Why platform this nonsense? Billions of doses delivered, lives saved.
Conflating the death and displacement of millions of persons with global eradication in order to say "Well, it's not going to happen!" is preeety shitty.
Paywalled. If substack writings are restricted to substack subscribers, why post a link to it on a public forum? (And why does HN allow it..)
Howey is one of my favorite authors. I love the world building that is accomplished in a relatively small span. Would be interested to hear recommendations from others who like this series.
That would be a shame. FairEmail has been the best mobile client I've used. But I absolutely empathize with the dev.
To be fair, when I'm at work it's 3am in China, too.
