It’s still down and prolonged for another 4 hours. My email has been down since 9am.

The 15% included contractors. Many of the Mobile developers were South American contractors.

You’re still okay with wasting 6% CPU and 1% gpu time on a simple note taking app?

Is this from the Secret Tape crew (NoClip)? The 25th Half-life 1 documentary was done by them.

The iOS 17 swipe keyboard is the worst it’s ever been. I have to constantly go back and edit my discord messages.

COBOL on Dreamcast when?

I knew someone would catch that. I caught that after looking back at the tweet.

It’s definitely been a hot minute since working without ARC.

I have so many CP/M programs my grandfather wrote in my garage. Never got to see them run but it’s cool to see people are still messing around with the OS in some capacity.

I worked on the shop app too (backend and iOS app). Small world.

I’ve moved on from shopify but still use the app.

I haven’t noticed any problems for the use case I’m using it for.

I’m giving it 8GB of ram and 6 cores/12 threads. VM is running on pcie ssd. Speed is good.

No gpu is in my server so it’s using a basic VNC connection. If you add a gpu and pass it through the desktop experience would be much better. However I only needed to do this to do initial setup.

The cool thing about my setup is that it uses a docker container called macinabox which handles the initial Vm configuration and macOS installation, estuary automating the “hackintosh” process.

Thanks for the clarification.

Mac stadium is a large Ci/CD provider for macOS. They rack mount iMac Pro’s and Mac minis.

I have a Monterey VM running on my home server inside Unraid with virtualization. I can login to Apple developer accounts. I use this as a macOS gitlab runner VM.

Or is my setup not what you’re describing?

I was at shopify for 5+ years and recently left.

It’s a trap!

Adobe products were not written to take full advantage of high thread counts not GPU bound tasks. This is why their products run much better on Intel chips because they have higher single core speeds.

They alerted them after using it for 20 years to spy on us? \s

Would this only be a problem if they vest in non-uniform quantities? At the company (Shopify) I work for they vest in even amounts over 4 years but you have to wait 1 year to get 1/4 of them then every quarter after that.

An app store, watch face store, dictation, weather. those features are the reason it requires a server. That's what you give up by not using rebble or similar services.

Program modes have even been available on Film cameras going back to the late 80s and early 90s.

I'm sorry. I wasn't being serious.

I do shoot film exclusively though. At the lab I buy my film and get it developed, they do sell homemade film. I've seen some fantastic results from the B&W film community members make.

I'm also in the middle of building a dark room in my basement.

FYI I use either Android pay or debit to buy my film

Can't trust ATM machines. I make my own film.

I'll stick to my film cameras for a bit longer.

My uncle just started a small bee colony on his property. This will help his garden, the surrounding gardens, and the area as a whole. My work also has a few hives on each of our buildings rooftops.

So some people care but a larger majority do not. As humans we, especially in the west, don't care about a problem until it's too late. who cares about the bees when we have the latest iPhone Xr+ Max ultra

If I could edit it I would. I do however stand by my statement here because I know first hand how this CEO operates. I worked at his previous startup and he acted the same way. The same culture, fear, hostility, toxicity was all present.

I co-run a SaaS company targeted towards funeral homes. We offer a CMS and white labeled obituaries that don't look like they were built in 1998. The subject matter might be a bit mundane but it's very profitable.

Just today I was looking through old boxes at my parents house. I found my Myst and Riven CDs. I remember playing these games as a kid after my grandfather gave them to me so I would play something other than Doom.

You mean a pre-2015 Thinkpad?

It’s trying to be a phone companion, like a smart watch but in your pocket. Phones are getting bigger and bigger so this is a way to get a second screen experience without constraining that experience to a 1” screen on your wrist.

I think that’s what they are trying to do. It instantly reminds me of the memory cards of the Dreamcast.

I made the switch over to film from years of shooting digital. I’ve fallen in love with the colours and contrast that the Fuji films give. The blues and greens really pop but overall it’s a muted colour palette - love it.

I can see why they are doing this and Kodak isn’t but it is sad. I’ll probably end up buying up a bunch of Fujifilm and freezing it as well. A lot of the film from Fuji I see in stores is set to expire late 2019.
