Depends on the server you are using to host your media sever from. If you're using a Raspberry Pi, then you might not be able to support transcoding at all, definitely not for a 4K…

The official Plex app hasn't been updated to take advantage of all the hardware decoding support available on the Apple TV. I moved to Infuse, a paid third-app, which I use to stre…

> and it's "better for the environment" because every year you don't buy a new phone, the environment is happy. This seems wrong. I am still on an iPhone Xs Max from 2018 and it st…

Sounds like he used to be younger and needs to see an optometrist.

I used Grammarly in the past and I stopped because the privacy issues were concerning. I switched to https://www.antidote.info/en , which works entirely on-device, without sending …

Actually, SSO is usually a requirement for even basic security audits. So SSO is essentially required for companies operating in specific sectors, regardless of their size. Healthc…

For anyone who is interested, the actual blog post on his website was deleted. It's available on the Way Back Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20210601160519/https://www.kamau.…

This has been annoying for me. I build a healthcare EMR software, and the browser trying to autofill the employee's information into every patient field is often a problem. By acci…

I agree entirely. I've tried zsh and other replacements, but I keep coming back to Fish. It's intelligent, loaded with features, and ohmyfish adds a lot. No other machine I connect…

No one wants used products for "new" prices, but plenty of people would be willing to buy open-box items at discounted prices. It's a huge thing for appliances. In most situations,…

I don't think most stores would offer returns, except it is often forced on them buy credit card companies to protect their consumers. American Express, Visa, and Mastercard all ha…

Years ago, there was a failed gaming device called a Stinky Board, it's a D-PAD controlled with your feet. I got one at a gaming convention and have never put it to good use. Now I…

Maybe I am missing something, but iOS 14 has had beta versions out for developers for months; I had been running iOS14 and Big Sur for testing for weeks. Apple has always had devel…

I do not think it is. Blockchains are meant as a data store. Archival, verifiable. But not easily searchable. There is no design on blockchain for advanced query languages/logic. I…

I also posted to the github gist, this the sed command here is not cross-plataform friendly. You can accomplish the same thing with an awk command though: awk '/^###/' "$0"

Right. Firefox and Safari (iOS and desktop) haven't implemented the Clipboard.read functionality yet either, only Chrome has and it's only available on use action such as a click o…

I agree with this. As a privacy-first company, for them to make any decision that is for performance but adds additional privacy risk shows they make the wrong decisions. They also…

Some of the models look cool, but this website is unchanged since 2014/2015. Not sure they’re active.

This is what I thought had happened. They've supported MFA for awhile, so simple enough to reset a password and make sure MFA is turned on. I prefer when companies are proactive.
