I just upgraded from an M1 Pro to an m5 pro and lost the ability to drive my 4k monitor above 60hz on same dock and monitor setup.

This was also going from Sequoia to Tahoe.

I am having an issue with it attaching. Are the system requirements right? I am on Sequoia

I have a box full of old unique phones that while I technically can get replacement batteries, the replacements have generally been awful and bloated very quickly.

I will have to give a go at this guide to extend some life to these phones

Wish there was a bit more technical details in how the prompt iterations looked like.

> We didn’t just replace a model. We replaced a process.

That line sticks out so much now, and I can't unsee it.

I ended up getting it working, just had to start up OrbStack with `orb`

Does it work with orbstack? It doesn't seem to be detecting correctly

A proxy service like shadow socks works. There are thousands of providers for $X/month for a decent amount of traffic

Mine is an ultra cheap “hand writing” machine off taobao. There’s not really any specific model since there’s a million clones of them floating around

I’ll probably have to make the holder myself but good to know others have had the same problem!

I have a really cheap one that seems to apply uneven pressure across the bed. Has anyone worked with any sort of spring loaded holder that could help that sort of problem?

I was also confused. I think the copy just needs some revising

Probably intends to say something along the lines of “please login to see more, you can’t lurk a project beyond the homepage”

TIL! Will have to try Yaupon tea some time as well.

It was ASSI

What does it mean when the letters become “straight”? I thought it meant they were in the correct spot but it was for what seem impossible letter combinations.

They also seem to become straightened out when not on the bounding boxes, and they seem to be straightened out even when not making real words. But also even when making real words they sometimes show as “broken”.

I see that it references multiple solutions but I’m still confused how that tracks.

EDIT: I ended up “solving” the puzzle but one of the words isn’t a real word, not even in a scrabble dictionary.

Thanks! Got it

Only feedback so far — I wish there was a bit of formatting for the numbers. The big blocks of text are hard to scan for important details.

Bullets are the first thing I can think of.

Signed up but not getting the verification email. Interested in the execution though.

Has heard about it but didn’t know the reliability. Too bad it doesn’t support my 2011 Honda. Next car!

What’s the setup here with a ventilation fan?

Do you just run a ventilation fan in reverse? And suck outdoor air inside?

I will sometimes crack a window and leave the ventilation fan on, then later run a dehumidifier. But it’s a lot of steps, and it would be nice to automate some of the steps.

I was similarly inspired by afterthebeep, but didn't get anywhere. It'll be interesting to see if different niches/metas build up over time.

I had fun browsing the different topics, and could see myself using this as a way to have "slow" social media usage.

Really enjoyed this write up. You both had the skill and the patience to even buy a working version to fix the broken ones!

FYI the “customer support” link in the footer on the homepage also links to support@buttondown.email.

Clean UI and a neat way to document your daily learnings.

Would be interested in running it for other Chinese languages as well.

Perhaps using the same nomenclature for both? In the tooltip you call it an Autoprompt, but the icon itself just says "AI". Also, I typed some steps in, and expected to need to review before deploying since I didn't have any "AI" or "autoprompt" to help.

Maybe some sort of more obvious workflow that it's "done" and can be tested?

Interesting idea. I liked the AI button, but had difficulty even finding it since you need to click into a line item before you can see it.

Also, I wanted to "test" my work before deploying it, but that seems not possible?

Wow that's extremely good value.

Where did you end up finding the auctions for these? Contact the design firms directly?

What is a "design house auction"?

It sounds like a museum auction or something? If so, that sounds like a nice way to promote an environment to enjoy things. Would make a great entrance/foyer hallway feature.

I took it to mean "do something with no real purpose" except they don't need to Slack/Zoom/Scrum/Checkins/8 hours a day.

Doesn't really seem like highroading, more like efficient use of their time.

That was a fun game. There's a bit of a thrill every time I call into one of these "stranger phone" things that is still novel to me.

The same feeling I get from some of the "phone a stranger" chats from many years ago.

Recently went the DIY route to show a Notion board on my 4th gen kindle. This is much nicer though, as it's optimised for display on the lower resolution screen.

I just wanted to avoid having to pull data out of Notion & re-build a UI. Would be nice for some way to apply CSS to a page to make it more viewable.

How does the ThinkSmart handle authentication?

I did a little experiment with Samsung Dex to see if the Android-only environment could work. So far - I found it way less distracting not having all my current tabs/finder windows open. I could definitely see it as a nice "writing appliance" that I could put in a quiet corner for the end of the day.
