I think the modern day equivalent to this is saving PDFs of webpages you want preserved. I have the feeling that I'm turning into my grandfather every time I do it, but it's proven…

I haven't tried it yet, but it looks like a really cool project. I do the same thing using multiple LLMs in a wide variety of directories and I'm prone to losing conversations and …

My first thought was "Pax is definitely #1 in complexity" and I was right. Those who have built one (or a whole system) will understand how humbling of an experience assembly is. I…

It's easy to beat up on Apple, but the new icons are like the "jellybean" glass effect filter was removed. I feel like Apple listened to the complaints and are making the right adj…

For my American friends who may not know this: The Sega MegaDrive console from the late 80's early 90's is what we call the Sega Genesis. When I saw this post, I assumed it was som…

This is bad, but not as bad as the "Unlock Premium" ad every single corporate/enterprise Teams user got (locked in the title bar on Windows and macOS). Hiding the ad required an ad…

"128GB ought to be enough for anybody."

Thanks a lot eth0up, we all went down waiting on you to accept that Moto update.

Anyone still using SMS for 2FA codes, here is your official notice to change that ASAP.

It's also weird that some people here in the office on Verizon work fine, and others are on SOS. No correlation between phone versions or hardware that I could deduce. I also see t…

At 2:14PM EST, Verizon said: "Verizon engineering teams are continuing to address today's service interruptions. Our teams remain fully deployed and are focused on the issue. We un…

The "ask Rufus" AI feature of every Amazon product page is almost as bad. It has misguided me on product specs so many times now, I am convinced I can find a better answer manually…

I think an important caveat here is that down detector was not actually down, the cloudflare human verification component was (AFAIK). I wonder if this downdetector down detector a…

Use ungoogled-chromium (or Firefox).

This is super slick. I remember spending hours maybe days trying to make MRTG or rrdtool graphs look like these.

Where's Canada? And Mexico?

Great job, this is kid tested and approved. My 12yo son, who plays a lot of FPS games discovered how bad he is using the trackpad on my MacBook Pro. It was a lot of fun seeing him …

This is Trump playing chess. ByteDance, Greenland, The Gulf of Mexico, Panama Canal- All this, and he's not even President yet. It's all part of a bigger picture and a bigger plan …

I believe it does not touch HKLM\SOFTWARE or HKCU\SOFTWARE. But the machine I fixed a couple weeks ago had all the apps from the windows store & third party apps working fine. :shr…

This is sort-of an existing feature since Windows 10. You can download the latest Windows 10 (or 11) media creation tool and create a USB. Click Setup.exe, and even if it's the sam…

An entry-level admin is now unemployed, just before the holidays.

Why is the date on this article 5-months ago? (OCT 18, 2022) Is this really a new feature?

I'm not 100% sure what the destination platform was that was only 20% the AWS cost. Digital Ocean? A "myriad of other SaaS platforms"? Self-hosted in a colo datacenter somewhere? H…

This is the #1 reason I use Firefox Container Tabs. I can have a container for my work, personal, project, etc. where Google is logged in, and not commingle any of them, and all of…
