    So how much annually do you spend on your hobbies, anyways, if you're going to declare getting a new phone every two years "fucking insanely financially irresponsible" :p Glass hou…

    They stopped making iPods in 2022 :( the last one they did make was the iPod Touch (7th gen), which was basically an iPhone in a slightly different shell without a cellular radio.

    As an added point of reference, Turing released in late 2018 and RDNA2 released in late 2020. I Googled a little to see if the GTX 1660/Ti supported Vulkan Video and found this pag…

    It was still overpriced when it was rumored to be ~$700 with the rest of the market priced commensurately, and I go online right now and buy significantly more powerful prebuilts f…

    I never want to see HN complaining about Apple prices ever again now that I see multiple folks calling the Steam Machine a great value.

    Framework’s single greatest marketing triumph is selling a $20 3.5 mm audio jack for a device that doesn’t have one but easily could (Framework 16) and somehow avoiding constant co…

    How exactly does “we can manage our finances” follow from picking debit over credit?

    You did look at the Steam Machine's specs/benchmarks, right? I'm fairly certain that the build you just made well exceeds what Valve put out.

    I guess the "we" depends strongly on location - I've no problem using Apple Pay basically everywhere except Walmart.

    What are you possibly encoding for social media that doesn’t work on iOS? Also the project in the original link is Mac only (hence the irony), so evangelizing Graphene and Qubes se…

    I can't speak for Linux, but it's now part of their iCloud for Windows suite with browser access via extension[1]. Exporting from Bitwarden to Passwords (on an iPhone at least) is …

    If your “we” is Australia, you could have implemented consumer protections then sued Valve for ignoring them: https://www.accc.gov.au/media-release/valve-to-pay-3-million...

    "simple steam drm, non trivial to pirate" Steam DRM is trivial to the point where you may as well not use it and just release on GOG. Until the one actual cracker in combination wi…

    I just wish someone would come out with a PCIE 4x1 capable card with SFP - my main desktop’s non-GPU expansion slots are all 4x1 electrically and even the one you linked is a 3x2. …

    I don’t think I’ve seen a cookie banner pop up with a “please reconsider” on refusal … ever, actually. Neat? I had Debian running on an old clamshell iBook for a bit; the main thin…

    This is a more Reddit comment section than I’ve seen on r/headphones in ages. It’s almost nostalgic! I use my wired Sundara (which have dropped in price greatly since I got them ye…

    Do you have a German word for ignoring the things the person you’re replying to liked about a given thing?

    The separate light-only sticks are useful if you want the appearance of all four slots filled: having four RAM sticks usually forces a slower memory speed (as the target market typ…

    That’s less than the cost of a 34 mile round trip to and from Radio Shack, especially these days.

    That's not the complaint at all - the complaint is that, because of the anti-stalking measures added at the original launch, the AirTags can't be used to track stolen items because…

    Which doesn’t matter at all in the case of Helldivers 2 as it’s only available for PC, PS5, and XBS/X. That’s a good part of why PC players were so irritated, actually: when all th…
