That was my setup until recently. The ads are YT blocked well on iOS but it kept having hiccups on iPadOS. I switched to uBlock in safari and it works well. I wish it showed what is being blocked on each page instead of the little counter in the icon.

Doesn’t look like it supports Family Sharing, is that right?

Does it work on YouTube ads?

Too bad he didn’t feel like Hashicorp anymore. F#ing IBM.

Asyx, you have an opinion on the ban before reaching the 3rd paragraph of the article. I recommend reading it first.

I got the same email (for my Pro account). And all the limits they set have nothing to do with their reason for setting them. Pro is so limited already that people “running 24/7” is a total nonsense.

I was going to create a website just like this but for my Audi Q5. Least reliable car I ever owned. It’s been in the shop about 15 times in 2 years. I finally gave up. It still has a few unsolved issues but I just don’t care. I’ll be trading it in later this year and … Never another Audi again.

Maybe not as old. I deployed a few racks of HP Alpha DS25s in 2007-2008 before they were replaced with Itanium based Blades (running OpenVMS 8.4). I do not miss working with OpenVMS one bit. It was rock stable (basically an on/off appliance) but the user experience left me wanting (coming from Linux).

I can see how they may be still stuck on Alphas because unless they can somehow simply recompile for x86-64 OpenVMS, it’s a complete rewrite from scratch.

That’s also one of the options I considered. Right now I have a git-synced obsidian but it feels awkward.

I wish there was something as lightweight and as well integrated as Apple Notes. Just support MD, sync well and have a search function.

100% this. I want exactly none of this new CarPlay. Car and phone integration has been notoriously bad since the beginning. Software updates on your phone break BT or CarPlay with some specific car or brand… or car entertainment software being buggy and not working well with a phone… and never getting updates. CarPlay is mostly good at what it is today. I certainly don’t want it to became more integrated into my car. I really hope the “full dash takeover” is just an option that can be switched off.

I used one of the temp mail addresses. No phone number (or any other verifiable) information required. Even then, I don’t know if this is really a huge problem given the nature of this tool.

I found k3s to be a happy medium. It feels very lean and works well even on a Pi, and scales ok to a few node cluster if needed. You can even host the database on a remote mysql server, if local sqlite is too much IO.

zstd would be a better choice. It’s bonkers fast (especially when used with multithreading) and still compresses better than gzip. Alternatively, I’d recommend looking into bzip3, but I’m not sure if it would save time.

Had the same thought. In a way, that photo is absolutely stunning and beautiful in its own way. But I do understand how this is a huge problem for the astronomers.

Poor USPS probably has to keep special containers on hand just for idiots like me that just have to try this.

That’s just uncalled for. Hope your day gets better.

I’d not want to be a whistleblower during this presidency. Whistleblowers tend to have really bad luck crossing the street on a good day.

> Providing value to the company gets you rewarded

This is the part that is no longer true. The focus on individual contributors remains with your direct manager but don’t go much further. Execs always try to zoom out and save more money in different ways. So here come the offshoring and layoffs.

This is insane. Just finding a single character must be a real challenge.

What is the character ordering on these cylinders? I counted about 40 characters per row, and I’m guessing about 40 rows around the cylinder (1/4 of a cylinder is around 10 rows). So that’s about 1,600 characters.

How does this typewriter score for usability? In Kanji, ~1000 characters mean basic literacy, and 2000-2500 characters is “newspaper level” literacy.

I still cannot wrap my mind around mastering the written form of this language.

I’m just disappointed that while everyone else (DS, Claude) had something to introduce for the “Plus” grade users, gpt 4.5 is so resource demanding that it’s only available to quite expensive Pro sub. That just doesn’t feel much like progress.

F! those two in particular.

I haven’t used coins since about 2009 (I mostly pay with card or phone, and if I don’t, I just leave the change behind.). The exception to the rule was probably some tolls and parking meters. I’d probably ditch but quarters. Those still make sense otherwise I’d expect all the points where you can pay with coins to jack up the prices to the nearest dollar, regardless of how you pay (and each item individually).

I also don’t know how I feel about $1 coins. One buck has such a low value in these days that it almost doesn’t make sense to have it in “paper” but I cannot imagine going back to coins.

I’d argue that the VP himself is greater threat to this country than his Apple Watch.

Funny enough, this is the kind of bill I’d expect to see in China.

As a user, I’m on the other side of this. I never go to App Store to look for apps. (Even on Apple’s side) there is so much garbage and fake clones of apps promoted to the top .. that I just gave up. The only way I use AppStore is when I have a link open it for me (eg maintainer’s website or similar).

I don’t know much about voting in other states, but Texas does have it. In a way. I never had to go anywhere to register to vote. It was a part of my DL application, and it got updated with each change of address. You don’t need the mail voter registration to vote either— just your DL. From my understanding there are some states where it’s still not that easy but many do have this integrated with DL renewals, issues or similar.

I agree that Election Day should be a holiday. There’s a slight issue with Federal Holidays being applying only to federal employees and not necessarily to independent businesses, which can choose to observe it or not… but it’s a start.

Also in Texas, the polls are open for early elections for like two weeks ahead of Election Day. I always take advantage of that. No wait, no hassle, in and out. Most states offer either that or mail-in voting.

> * Young people have the least say in elections

While this is true from the perspective of voting laws (you can vote after 18 but you don’t need to be 18 to see how f’d ip things are…), it’s also true that the age bracket 18-29 has the lowest participation in elections. I didn’t do the math but I would not be surprised if the last elections turned differently if this bracket increased to percentage levels seen amongst older ages.
