    All GoPros since HERO 8 (released 2019) works as a webcam without any hacks, just plug it in.

    I just don’t want to be reminded how I look like while using these devices, it’s really distracting to me. If I wanted to know what I look like, I use a mirror.

    That's interesting, we moved to Cloudflare R2 for our CDN solution, and we got reports from some european government institutions that our assets weren't loading, likely for simila…

    I was running a 970ti for the longest time, it was only when I wanted to get into some VR gaming that it was time for an upgrade.

    We had the Riva TNT2 in our family computer, so that was fun to see that again, I think it was paired with an AMD K6-2 chip. One day one of my friends from school wanted to optimiz…

    Speaking of ffmpeg tools, someone on HN showed a TUI for ffmpeg that let you trim a video, with a preview in your terminal so you could trim precisely. I've tried searching for the…

    If you can get your hands on it, I recommend the 4 episode BAFTA-winning mini-series about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr_Bates_vs_The_Post_Office

    My postal code is 2200 (København N), and that form didn't do anything for me. All zip codes are postal codes, but not all postal codes are zip codes. At my last gig, this sentence…

    This makes me a bit sad, the $99/month always made other options more preferable for me, but I always loved the graphs from stathat and the forecasts seemed useful.

    Oxylabs sells proxies for scrapers, I suppose you can use the socks-proxy as a VPN, and they claim to use Honeygain. Honeygain is a platform where people sell their residential int…

    You're right, I was mistaken, I've seen some Youtubers playing games on it, but they use GameHub to run Steam games, somehow I thought it was running Steam OS. Sorry for the confus…
