I have a 2025 Model 3 and feel the same way. I’ve used FSD a ton in Southern California and it’s fantastic. People just want to raise their pitchforks at Elon/Telsa without actuall…

> Tesla used to sell Model S vehicles with software-locked battery packs. This was a way to offer different range options without having to make production more complicated with di…

I’m not sure what the cheaper subscription you’re referring to is. Only “Premium Connectivity” aka the internet data plan (streaming media, live traffic, and live sentry video feed…

I also use a Kobo and occasionally an iPad. Do you know if it's possible to sync progress between the two. I've been meaning to try calibre-web, but I'm doubtful iBooks will suppor…

Strongbox - I’ve been using it for the past two years. It’s been rock solid and has gotten a few useful updates in that time. here’s an older of comment of mine for more details: h…

Respectfully, I don’t think enough has been removed. As someone with Indian heritage it’s super disheartening to see plenty of comments negatively generalizing a diaspora of over 1…

Other browsers could add support for the native macOS password autofill apis (introduced back in 2020 in macOS Big Sur). So far both Chrome[1] and Firefox[2] have refused to add su…

Yattee, an alternative to NewPipe, has been available on the AppStore for over a year. Well before there was any pressure from the DMA. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/yattee/id15951…

Nova and Sublime. BBEdit seems philosophically opposed to adding the option for vim key bindings. I occasionally use VSCode for specific extensions or languages.

Yup, after I switched to a console - I was finally able to just play games with my friends and not waste mental energy on fiddling with settings. I don’t have to worry about downlo…

I paid $350 for my Xbox Series X. I then spent another $120 for 1.5 years of Game Pass Ultimate (there’s an arbitrage method to convert an existing Game Pass Core sub). For a casua…

I’ve owned 3 different Logitech mice and have had a ton of issues with Bluetooth and the LogiOptions software. There isn’t much competition, and only recently are we seeing other c…

Orion is a browser on iOS that added support for Firefox and Chrome WebExtensions. It still uses WebKit. Android Firefox only added support for WebExtensions recently, like within …

I recently switched to Wipr [0]. It’s dead simple to use, and will auto update its filter lists in the background. It’s a one time purchase, not a subscription. Adguard [1] is a de…

What advantages are there for AdGuard Home over Pi-hole?

There are probably hundreds of macOS specific bugs that Mozilla will never fix. Firefox is probably the worst browser in the terms of feeling native to macOS. These aren’t minor, c…

I’ve also given up on using Firefox on macOS. I used to be a hard core fan, but Mozilla consistently ignores bugs. For example, years later Firefox still doesn’t support macOS pass…

USB C was created due to Apple donating the reversible connector technology they created for lightning. If micro usb was enforced, USB C in its current form wouldn’t exist.
