Thus is quite interesting IMO, the fact that it will work on apparently all devices with no version limit will probably be a surprise to many. I suspect, given the fact that ADB ca…

I've had this a few times on Android (eg the new Subway app). I'm 99% sure it's the latter but not for security, just a fancy splash screen animation that was implemented as a vide…

I think it's just a grammar thing, meant to read "having a landing page and no product, but collecting emails like you do [have a product]" - so not the parent being disingenuous b…

I think you've linked the wrong "Block Site" extension, at least I couldn't find regex blocking or redirecting in that one, but this one has it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fi…

If the data is as they say sent via http then surely they can show a sample request with what data is _actually_ sent from the device instead of the list of what Qualcomm says migh…

A little bit of googling suggests that particular snap is a Wine wrapper: https://github.com/mmtrt/acrordrdc/blob/master/snap/snapcraf... Is that code the same as the one the other…

Am I the only one who sees Revue, Substack etc. as a niche market? I can see why it appeals to Silicon Valley types/HN readers; after all this website is a content aggregator so it…

I think one thing overlooked is that Google's supposed rationale for providing this service is effectively because they suppose that their plans to "more aggressively block fingerp…

The file browser on the left and the general design of it makes me lean towards the author intending this to replace VS Code and other modeless, less keyboard focused editors, not …

This is a bit cynical of me but I thought it was interesting: In the PDF their legal says this: > in the years since, Fortnite has topped 350 million players and has become a globa…

People in this thread discuss what Nvidia would do with ARM after they buy it, but I'm honestly not even sure if anyone even could buy ARM to be honest. The article barely even men…

I mean usually people tend to send a message or email alongside sharing files with people so I doubt it would be much of a loss.

It surprises me that it's taken so long for someone to actually recompile some open source benchmark like sysbench or Blender and run it natively on ARM. If theyve already broken t…

Memberful was indeed an acquisition: https://memberful.com/blog/joining-patreon/

Apple and Google could force otherwise if they just ban the app from their stores. Especially considering that they seem to be using some questionable workarounds to run in the bac…

Perhaps they could limit refunded products to 3 star or below? Really there isn't a good reason to positively review something and take it back, if it was your fault eg if it didn'…

I'm inclined to agree because of one contradiction in the issue: they say they got an email when they were banned but then they say they can't access their Gmail to provide proof b…

Really what needs to happen is that the UPU in general needs to be redefined. The Chinese sellers can still access Europe, Canada, and basically anywhere else, which isn't going to…

Have you confirmed this? In the example the ID is retrieved from the finished upload response, but on the actual YouTube website does tell you the video link with the ID in advance…

Just a guess but I assume this was done by starting an upload with the API which gave the guy the ID but then not streaming the actual video file until it was recorded. Looking at …
