    I was also very confused. I started a medium puzzle and was immediately thrown off by the borders. Thicker borders are usually every 5 cells, but here it looks like they've been ad…

    I have a similar complaint every AI chat product I've used. There's no way to multi-select conversations and delete them in a single action. It's either delete all or click on the …

    As much as I would like to use this, $7/month seems like a lot when Clip Studio Paint has similar 3D pose tools[1] and a marketplace full of free models/poses for $4.49/month. Plus…

    I've turned into a bit of a data hoarder lately, I have a folder with over 43k images. Finder and File Explorer both struggle to even open the folder and load all the thumbnails, b…

    I've created a bookmarklet that just appends a date query string (?date=05112026) to my current tab's URL. My bookmark manager Raindrop will recognize this as a completely differen…

    I do a bit of graphic design for friends and family and am more than willing to spend like up to $100 on a nice typeface from smaller creators. It's just unfortunate many professio…

    TVs have just become a commodity, there's very little incentive for the technology to continue to get better. Everyone just competes on size and price, and every manufacturer has t…

    Every piece of presentation software will eventually flake out on you, I learned long ago that there should always be a plan B. I just make it a habit to always export my presentat…
