    I love my AirPod Pros, but I hate how unreliable charging in the case is. The AirPods will often think they are out of the case, when they are, and discharge themselves, while conn…

    I saw multiple machines running RedStar OS, even took photos of me interacting with one of them, on my 2-week trip a couple of years ago. I commented on another North Korea post he…

    Tarsnap won't be able to shrink your photos by using deduplication and/or compression. I guess users paying 10$/mo with terabytes of data stored, have massive advantages of both, b…
