FYI you might be using an older version of crosspoint. It now has a software fix for the fading issue built in https://github.com/crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader/issue...

iirc in the past it was about memory and that larger storage needs more memory for caching. So this made at least some sense. I guess yields might be good enough that they can affo…

OTOH HN is all about the comments. And without reading you don’t know which ones are good. I often spend way more time on those. Each one 3-5 lines. Hundreds of comments in a near …

I recently tried to put my phone into black & white mode via iPhone accessibility shortcut (triple click on power button) This did not seem to work for me. I would forget about it …

There is a lot of overlap between this and "modern" nixie tube clocks such as this one: https://www.amazon.com/LONYIABBI-Electronic-Simulation-Power... I'd speculate those came fir…

The blog author is also the creator of Anubis

There is a lot of discussion in the comments about using VMs for dev work. I too try to at least use containers whenever I can but it's sometimes not very practical. Better than no…

Unfortunately airlines often have more strict rules. Lufthansa says 20 max for example https://www.lufthansa.com/us/en/prepare-for-your-trip/baggag... Although 20 loose batteries i…

There is so much value in blue links turning purple and showing the same content on repeat visits. This kind of permanence is a huge loss

I don’t think so. Bombs are usually found during construction so leaving them in place would not work if they block progress on a hole/tunnel etc For reference the state of NRW (Ge…

I saw this video [0] from the creator of this project the other day. Here he shows how to connect a USB joystick with a playstation access controller [1] by mapping from USB to 3.5…

(This was not in the US) I would say the people are free to leave but the car stays until they pay and that this is part of how every parking business operates. Otherwise, why pay?…

How much bullshit is there and how often are there consequences for this? I don’t often read about anyone actually being fined for wrong, unnecessary or petty emergency calls Local…

macOS has built in shortcuts to switch through windows of the currently focused application. I have it reconfigured to alt+tab This is not exactly what you are looking for but I pe…

Anyone here who can answer this as well in the context of local work on a Mac? I manually use tmux when sshing into servers but usually that’s one session split in two and that’s i…

I would like to archive every web page I ever visit. Something like this sounds very useful but it would need to be updated periodically. I’m thinking a hybrid approach could make …

Just the other day I was setting up Jellyfin and tailscale on an n100. It worked fine locally but sharing via tailscale with a family member across the world somehow broke things. …

Fun facts I remember from looking into this in university some 9 years ago: It’s not only the sideways movement of plates that causes a shift. WGS 84 and other reference systems wo…

There’s plenty of reasons why you would want to have a separate Apple ID for a company Mac that have nothing to do with overly restrictive permissions from IT. The main one being a…

It is interesting how many here are excited about this for productive computer work. It’s also what Apple advertises with. But what is the account situation like? For years I’ve be…

What is the expectation here for the coming years, does it make sense to wait? I assume this tech moves like most tech and it will only get cheaper like you say but also better. Ar…

Is this the right place (/s) for me to complain about a regression in iOS 17.1 and 17.2 (beta) where typing too fast will randomly switch to other apps? [1] It’s such a frustrating…
