Yes, I think that is actually great idea and should be rolled out to everybody! I hate using messenger but some people I communicate with still prefer it. If this is rolled out, th…

That is a very cool project and makes perfect sense. Also I've just realized I am still using my Kindle 3 (the one with keyboard) to read books and it would feel strange to repurpo…

Nice, had to sing it :-)

But where is the BLOCKCHAIN?! Anyhow, I wonder what problem does this actually solve. Almost all the money I spend is spent cash-less. Does this somehow allow to bypass Visa/Master…

So we'll see at least 1-2 years of Apple Silicon being at least one node ahead of competition. I am curious for how long will be Apple able to pull this lead off, and what the perf…

The problem is scale and availability of materials to make batteries. Right now almost all the batteries are produced for and used in electric cars, however electric cars only make…

Olkiluoto EPR reactor in Finland was connected to the grid in March this year. There are 2 more EPRs in construction, in France and UK. So yes, there were new power plants coming o…

Gave me smile because I have a little anecdote that happened recently. My friend showed up for a B-day party, and after some time invited me and few other friends to have a look at…

It's just a big piece of copper with decent thermal mass, not heatpipe.

Well obviously, the work is done, Teslas are robo-taxiing and self driving since around 2019, no? /s

I've used Windows almost exclusively until the end of 2021, when I replaced it with Macbook Air with M1 processor, so I am very aware of Windows vs. MacOS situation. To be honest, …

Speaking about M1 laptop here, yes, the port selection is poor, however the laptop is so good that I will choose it any moment over my Lenovo with many ports. YMMV I guess.

Something that has been bugging me for some time (genuine question, please forgive me lack of geopolitics/economy understanding) is this: Supposing we want to hurt Russian economy …

Yeah, well when they removed the headphone jack on iPhone 7, which has the same shape and dimensions as iPhone 6, it turned out they just put some piece of plastic in the place whe…

Try up/down arrows, not left/right.

> Upgrading the OS to a major version without worrying if I'll be able to boot next time. Yeah, well my friend's Intel Mac mini got bricked when he updated from Big Sur to Monterey…

Since I don't have (nor plan to have) Magic mouse, that's kinda expensive solution :) I use this instead: https://github.com/pilotmoon/Scroll-Reverser and it works well. Generally …

Thanks for the tip. While the plugin from Google never failed for me during file transfer, it's incredibly limited! I was very surprised that that is absolutely NO macOS-Android co…

Apart from written in the article, my 2 cents: - cannot invert scrolling just for mouse (I use normal mouse with wheel, not apple mouse) -> I have an app for that - cannot connect …

My opinion: M1 gives you (speaking about laptops here): thin and light, very powerful device that runs very cool, a combo that you don't get anywhere else for less money. Frankly i…

> Just taking apart a modern iPhone is a warranty-voiding, screen-cracking, glue-ripping operation. From my experience iPhones are as hard (or a bit easier) to open as other waterp…

Meta (pun intended) answer: Everything is dying, slowly or fast, from the moment of inception. Instagram included. But observing my surrounding, it seem that Insta is the sh*t curr…

Many people in comments write about difficulties with onboarding to remote-only companies, with establishing relationships with colleagues at work. My close friend works remotely a…

>If I stick with Google/iPhone, I just log into my account on the latest and greatest device, and voilà, all my stuff populates on the screen. Apps, conversations, albums, playlist…
