Iirc a talk about the Gameboy hardware @ Chaos Communication Congress correctly, the system _requires_ the Nintendo logo shown at game startup to be present, otherwise it won't boo…

As someone with the detection mechanism tatooed on their arm, I can tell you this is not based on the visual design of the entire note, but on a small constellation of five rings, …

Hey all, over the years I've been stumbling across people being amazed that iOS' system keyboard allows cursor movement and even text selection. Since the latter feature has finall…

I'm just curious what your motivation for the patch is, because I too use atuin and see the space-prefix as a feature. It's been around for a while (longer than atuin) to keep cert…

As a side note, it's 2026, and there's still German software that thinks our postal codes are integers. Mine has a leading zero, and it hasn't been too long since I've seen (German…

They are, the model has no inherent knowledge about its confidence levels, it just adds plausible-sounding numbers. Obviously they _can_ be plausible, but trusting these is just an…

It's David Kriesel's infamous talk about the even more infamous Xerox bug. Talk: https://media.ccc.de/v/31c3_-_6558_-_de_-_saal_g_-_201412282... Bug: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…

Does Blender also qualify? It even shows you the name of the Python function behind each UI element on hover, which is great for discoverability when scripting. Or maybe it used to…

And many other retailers, yes!

It's come up every time something related to thermal printing has been mentioned on HN lately, but this is honestly great stuff if you're in Germany: https://www.oekobon.de/ These …

> I was able to improve my sleep because I found out that my waking up in the night was correlated with high co2 values. What did you change? I assume it's non-trivial to automatic…

Not just a $PROPRIETARY_THING, but a random unaffiliated project that tries to nab users by using almost the same name as a well-known and well-appreciated project. It should count…

I use these for printing my shopping lists, I like synced lists (in Todoist in my case), but hate walking through stores with a device in my hand. The Ökobons have the added benefi…

This is an interesting take, especially since I've had exactly the opposite impression. Since you mention Homebrew, I assume you're talking about running Nix on macOS, which has be…

E-Mail allows setting the From header to whatever you want. These mails won't have valid DKIM or SPF data because they're not sent through your mail server. There's nothing to worr…

Oh I don't have it fullscreen, sorry, it usually covers the bottom half or bottom-left corner (depending on screen size). There it appears and disappears instantly.
