bushwart··on Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's letter to staff about affair
These guys are so rich they can hire beautiful prostitutes whenever they want. Looks alone are dime-a-dozen, in the end it's personality that counts (the latter notably also holds true for non-gazillionaires).

bushwart··on Polymarket Pauses Trading After Some Users Report Funds Drained
Changed link from Coindesk to WSJ, archive and wallhop don't seem to work on that site though.

The original Coindesk article I posted and its archive link:

Apparently the wallet key wasn't on the server, like some in the original thread suspected, but perhaps not due to maliciousness after all.

Sushi? Ramen?
bushwart··on Suits Are Better Tech Than Modern Clothes
Sorry, I misunderstood. For what it's worth, it took me about a year after my divorce until I completely stopped accidentally referring to my ex as my wife in conversation! Old habits, etc.
bushwart··on Suits Are Better Tech Than Modern Clothes
Sorry for your loss, your wife sounds like she was an amazing woman.
bushwart··on Nike exits the S&P 100 after 18 years and a $200B market-cap wipeout
Not going to argue with you about the quality of German brand sneakers, I wear Adidas myself, but Nike still has several models that score well enough on runrepeat.com.
bushwart··on Why I'm Not Excited About the Graphene OS and Motorola Partnership
Ironic, considering you're one of their most prolific supporters here. Every time I see a positive GOS headline on HN it's usually with your username next to it.
bushwart··on Why I'm Not Excited About the Graphene OS and Motorola Partnership
Needing an account to unlock the bootloader is a real bummer. I can live with issues 1 and 3. Thanks for the notes.

TL;DR: In summer, pumas in Nevada hunt more wild horses than deer.
bushwart··on Mom gets 6-month suspended sentence for letting 5-year-old walk to the pond
Wait til they hear about East German Germans and West German Germans.
bushwart··on GrapheneOS says Pixel 11 has MTE support after all
Shouldn't the headline read "GrapheneOS: Pixel 11 has bare minimum hardware level MTE support"?

As currently written, one would take away an entirely different message from the headline.

bushwart··on Play Store blocks AuroraStore, hurting GrapheneOS users
I wasn't aware GOS recommended AuroraStore.
bushwart··on Study: Blue light impairs the eye's ability to distinguish fine detail most
I have some LED bulbs at home but I use G9 halogens in either an E14 or an E27 adapter for the places where light quality is important to me. I tried a number of so-called "full spectrum" LED bulbs but I don't find the light they produce quite as satisfying as my halogens.

bushwart··on Casio F-B100W-1A
I spoke with a Casio engineer about this. It's so that your bending wrist can accidentally switch it to 12h time when you actually really want it on 24h time or vice versa.
bushwart··on Devices with GrapheneOS support should be available in 2027
High end Motorola phones :((( where is my Graphene flip phone?
bushwart··on Show HN: Classifier and browser extension to detect rule violating HN comments
Very cool. Now all it needs is an automated reporting system for offending comments with a direct line to dang's private inbox. Maybe this functionality can be built into the Chrome extension as well, so users can assist in reporting these utterly despicable comments without having to manually write a report email each and every time?
bushwart··on Online clinics and influencers are promoting Cialis as a longevity drug
You shouldn't be creepily ogling the gym baddies anyway no matter what you're on. Tadalafil is perfectly fine in the gym or the sauna as long as you control where your attention goes.
bushwart··on Kyiv blows up biggest Wildberries hub in drone attack
What's the rationale behind this? Is Wildberries hiding military hardware and munitions in its warehouses?
bushwart··on Why I've tracked every single piece of clothing I've worn for three years
Not backed by data but I'd recommend Uniqlo and Patagonia. Engelbert Strauss (workwear) is also worth looking into if you're in the EU, some of their clothing can be worn casually and offer amazing value for money.
bushwart··on Could psilocybin be the key to treating anorexia?
Psychedelics can dissolve more than the mind's conceptual prisons, perhaps much more of the mind than one would like. How did the hippie-era stereotype of the burned out acid head disappear so quickly from popular culture?
bushwart··on US Military asks troops for 'creative and unconventional' ideas to punish Iran
>“We are looking for new creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran,” an officer in US Central Command’s intelligence branch wrote in a message sent Wednesday to a broad group of military analysts, according to a source familiar with the message. A second source also said that a senior US military officer sent the message last week soliciting new ideas for how to deal with Iran.

Still somewhat better than just asking ChatGPT, I guess?
