If I'm understanding you correctly, you can have both. If there are specific rebase types that you perform regularly, you can create aliases for them and give them whatever name is…

Or perhaps people will understand that this is a car with an abundance of sensors, and all sorts of data about what it "sees" (including actual camera footage) will be stored and u…

In my experience few merchants limit Apple Pay to the contactless limit (Tesco being a notable exception) but many of the times I’ve used Apple Pay for larger purchases the person …

It’s worth mentioning here that as long as long as you have a few seconds notice you can force your Face ID enabled iPhone to require a passcode the next time it’s unlocked. Just p…

This is no longer true for Series 8 and Ultra watches. What I’ve not found out is whether this true of any Apple Watch running watchOS 9 or just the latest models.

This is different to optimized battery charging. As of iOS 16 (in an as yet unreleased point version) Apple plans to add support for clean energy charging, which will charge your i…

Do you mind elaborating on what seeds you’re referring to. Or just some pointers on what to search for or something. I’m ignorant to the history here but would like to learn more.

Would it not make sense to upgrade to the newest node they can afford to a longer lifespan more life out of their next node? It feels like picking the next-oldest node leaves them …

Thanks, I didn’t know about pipx. If it works as advertised that will be a huge improvement for me!

Just want to second this. All of the above sounds really interesting to me!

Best be sleeping with one eye open then

When you say a "Mac" display, what are you referring to? Apple sells exactly one display - the XDR - and its pricing is such that no one casually buys because their $300 external d…

If it’s any consolation, I find English pronunciation very difficult, and I’m a native speaker. It surprises me that in my thirties I still regularly encounter situations where I w…

For what it's worth, I installed it with my zsh plugin manager without any issues. A simple case of adding it to the list: zinit light-mode for \ zinit-zsh/z-a-as-monitor \ zinit-z…

For people (like me) who don't appreciate the advantages of 800v vs 400v, here's an article about why this is useful: https://eandt.theiet.org/content/articles/2021/02/800v-syste..…

Agree completely, but I can tell you for many of them pirating a text book is beyond their means. To do so you need not only internet access, but the sophistication to find pirated…

Just wanted to say well done on losing all that weight!

As someone who grew up watching rugby and only got into football as an adult, I couldn't believe the amount of disrespect players show to officials. I think I spent the first two y…

I absolutely loathe micro USB. I am constantly having to throw away cables that are a few months old because they no longer reliably charge my devices (PS4 controllers, Fire tablet…

Can you say why you think this is the case? Matz has very much made performance a focus: they've continued to improve the Ruby VM and added JIT, for example. Likewise, many of the …

I'm South African, and married to a Brit. We moved to the UK some years ago, and I was really excited about not being angry about politics all the time... ... Oh well

Yeah, I experienced this myself when - some years ago - I attempted to transition to Signal. In all the groups I was in, there was at least one person from group 3, who outright re…

How do you deal with companies like Netflix, that became a publisher mostly organically? Require that they license their content to third parties?

Sure, but in this case it was a case of me not knowing one could check their Smile balance. GP posted their balance, prompting me to check mine, and the total was the same. That fe…

How strange. I just checked my Smile account and I've generated £6.01 for my charity (my childrens' school). What are the odds...
