I already know not going to find any sympathy on this site but the truth is that something that shocks me again and again is how everyone preaches battery storage without thinking about how dirty and polluting the process is to mine the materials and turn them into a finished battery product is.

How can people ignore this end of the lifecycle of lithium ion batteries? Is it just out of sight, out of mind?

Same with the solar panels. To install them at meaningful scale, do people not think about the amount of mining, manufacturing and energy it is going to take to make that many panels?

It seems even more absurd given the limited lifetime of both solutions.

Genuinely curious how proponents of this energy system square all of this.

I always liked wkhtmltopdf.

It makes it super easy for front end devs to layout and generate PDFs using tools they already know.

Can't beat the price either, especially compared to coldfusion or some of the .net libraries out there.

Very easy to write this if you’ve already made it. Plenty of people haven’t, however. And while Facebook might not be the nicest place doing the best stuff for the world, we should not be disparaging developers for trying to better their situation unless you’re gonna go ahead and disparage every developer who ever worked at Facebook too.

Does anyone still put soundblaster cards in their rigs these days?

This is some wholesome caustic indignation I can get behind. Surely today’s social media networks would have classified this content as hate speech and inciting violence.

good morning

I really appreciate seeing someone creating their own interface instead of re-skinning the popular shells. If the devs out there working on this see this thread, great work!

Have a look at Big Sur, then check out Deepin, then have a look again at Big Sur.

There is something funny about it being an Apple centric course that is using comic sans

Exactly! This is the best resource on SwiftUI I have found yet!

Does anyone know why some of these apples don’t brown? They have obviously been bred that way, but how can they not oxidize?

Nothing. They’re mouthpieces of the establishment and they have to retract nothing.

Can we all just agree to coalesce around atom this time?

Well put!

You bring up a good point. How do we ensure that social services doesn’t also get infiltrated by white supremacists, though?

Maybe we should be jailbreaking again

Lots of google fans on this website.

Like legit it’s like the inverse of wading through the comments section on macrumors.

Side loading is clunky.

If Android were really as free and open as everyone says it is, then there would be a method built into the os to download and install apps directly through the web browser, without hunting through settings and enabling it.

As it is, this is barely better than iOS, and I’m kind of disgusted that everyone thinks it’s fine and normal as a solution.

It’s not that iOS is safe from this, it’s that in all practicality, Google is not really that different as what my friends popularly suggest. Android is not a free, open OS. Well, it is to a point, but realistically that point is not much further than ios for most users.

As for an alternative mobile OS, I would love to get my hands on Sailfish, but it’s not available for the US.

SMH playing games on a cell phone os LMAOROTFLLOLLLLLLLL

We need a very big expansion of php usage

Bookmarking this one for when my friends chide me for “still” using iOS.

Such a shame that there isn't more effort being put in by the bigger Mac developers to get v2 finished up.

Brave soul posting this kind of truth to HN comments. But you are right, there is corruption, arrogance and ego in the science fields just the same as any things else.

The only care about diversity as a tool to further their own agenda. Countless examples of big tech attacking or ousting diverse people who voiced their own opinion that was contra to the narrative.

Time to move back to on prem services. These companies clearly don’t deserve the trust.

The other thing is that hosts file records appear to not hold in Firefox by default because of the https everywhere and the secure dns features they added.

Drives me bonkers sometimes when I forget to turn off

They don’t block websites yet.

The browser makers will find a way to make it happen if they need to.

They lost their relatives due to a declining living standard in the US. Qanon is a thing not because of Facebook, but because it gave people hope that the horrors and apparent wrongness of the globalism that has wiped out their communities, would be addressed.

Things like Qanon and BLM are a result of that declining living standard. No one would care if the country hadn’t been sold out. It absolutely is the slow death of the middle class and working class has led to all of this civil unrest and jumping at shadows. In a heathy, growing society, you just wouldn’t see things like this.

Must have missed the part where Apple allows developers to set up their own app stores.
