Hopefully condoned plug for a service I built, Polyreader ( https://polyreader.app ), which lets you quickly send articles to your Kindle. It supports (multiple simultaneous) colle…

I got a cracked copy of 3ds Max at a LAN party (back when it was "Discreet 3dsmax"), and immediately dragged dozens of cubes, spheres, and cones into the scene. Then I closed it fo…

Fair point! It doesn't bother me, but I can see how it would make some customers nervous.

Would you mind explaining the t-shirt criticism? I got one, it's nice, I'm literally wearing it right now, and I have trouble understanding the "distraction" critique. Seems like a…

https://polyreader.app My brother is always sending me articles to read, and I don't like reading at a computer, so I made a tool to send articles to my Kindle. It makes me happy a…

I totally agree. I made the mistake of exporting .zip archives the first time, which have a 2 GB size limit. At least the .tar option raises that to 50 GB. Porte doesn't require a …

Hi all. I built Porte after exporting my Google Photos archive using Takeout, only to find a jumbled mess of missing EXIF data and .json files with metadata. There are a few tools …

How are you using Syncthing on iOS?

I want to be able to access the same content from my laptop, phone, and tablet. I used Obsidian for a while with a convoluted setup (a Git repo with an iOS shortcut that fetched wh…

The ideal “knowledge base” app I’ve been searching for is as follows: - Self-hosted - Attractive web client that loads very quickly and works well on mobile - Can point it at a nes…

Nice to see this here. I’ve using a tablet for cursor movement since around 2010, and I find it amazing except for one small issue I’ve never been able to solve: tapping with the p…

I agree about the left-right issue. I just can’t get acclimated to the current controls. Lovely game though, still good fun :)

+1 for Outline! Self-hosted server and web app, clean codebase, loads fast, mobile friendly, actively maintained. I had tried Obsidian, Trilium, TiddlyWiki, and all the rest (not t…

Fastmail’s calendar does exactly this - infinite continuous scroll - and I love it. I also find it constricting when I use another calendar (Google Calendar, for instance) that pag…

As a fun counterpoint about case sensitivity in English, consider: - The man spoke to God, saying he had made poor decisions. - The man spoke to God, saying He had made poor decisi…

I agree with you on this. Ultimately I think there's an element of pride ("I don't get taken in by scams!") that I would do well to shed. But looking at the vague list of attribute…

Thanks for this. I've struggled with the effective-vs-true question, even to the point of panicking that I had read too much about the placebo effect for it to work on me. I like y…

I've seen this book recommended from time to time. I have a condition that falls within the book's purported domain, but when I read the synopsis, it raised all kinds of red flags.…

Blindsight, by Peter Watts. It's a sci-fi novel that asks fascinating questions about sentience and intelligence, and made me stare at the ceiling for weeks after I finished it.

I'm not always sure. There was a Lifehacker feature, and it's been on one of the App Store productivity lists for a few months, but daily sales vary mysteriously and I have no idea…

Continuo - http://continuoapp.com It's a numbers-free habit tracker for iOS, for people who want to self-track but don't want to deal with remembering and inputting precise values …
