Wouldn't expect anything different from godaddy
tazard··on Discord Switching to React Native for Android App
I had lots of issues on my M1 Mac, mostly it was solved by running their beta version though. No issues on any other platforms
tazard··on Keet – P2P Video and Text
Just don't use Bitcoin then? Red flag for what exactly?
tazard··on Ten people decide how many F-bombs a film can have before it gets an R rating
I don't think there is a reasonable answer here. Context matters
tazard··on Netlify Edge Functions: A new serverless runtime powered by Deno
And how about a fun educational project you aren't expecting visitors for and make zero revenue from? AWS bills can far exceed 100 bucks. Paying thousands for... Exposure? That's insane!..
tazard··on My journey for dual displays with my M1 Pro Mac (2021)
Can confirm DisplayLink works fine
tazard··on Fnt: apt for fonts
While I agree this looks like a nice simple tool for managing fonts, bringing up the differences between it and apt is hardly an argument for how this is the "apt for fonts".

I'm not the target user here since I'm usually happy enough with whatever font is available by default from apt, but that makes this tool (as nice as I'm sure it is for the intended users):

1. Install new package manager for a special category of packages

2. Learn/use different syntax for installing/searching/updating/removing

3. Remember in 6 months I even installed this thing, when I feel like a font change

tazard··on Upgrade Your SSH Keys
(2016)
tazard··on Visa and Plaid Abandon Merger After Antitrust Division’s Suit to Block
Any chance you could point me to something more specific? From your link I found this:

> We do not sell or rent personal information that we collect.

tazard··on The Design of the Roland Juno Syntheziser's Oscillators
WILL attract alien visitations - CAUTION ADVISED WILL DEFINITELY cut into TV viewing time - CAUTION ADVISED Stimulates plant growth and calms goldfish.

Well thanks. There goes all my free time... But seriously, that website looks like an amazing resource

tazard··on Build a tiny certificate authority for your homelab
With DNS validation it's fairly straight forward to get a wildcard cert for all your internal domains (*.my.domain)
tazard··on Show HN: Pop.com – Video Calls, in 3D
99/100 times I won't play the video. I'll only play a video if i already know what product is & does, and I want to learn more.

Off topic, but your both Andy.

tazard··on Raspberry Pi Server Mark III
RamNode has some starting at $15/year on their OpenVZ platform. Have been happy enough with that for several years now, although it's quite limited as to what it can do in terms of performance. But as another commentor mentioned, check out LowEndBox. It's where I discovered this.
tazard··on Google discontinues Home Max speaker, tells you to buy two Nest Audios instead
It says the speaker still works fine. They just aren't manufacturing new ones as they have a different model now. What's the issue here, the name change from Google Home to Nest?
tazard··on Tell HN: Never search for domains on Godaddy.com
Thanks! That scale/pebbles metaphor very nicely describes something that I have been having a difficult time explaining for some time now.
tazard··on Svelte and TypeScript
That hasn't been my experience at all, in fact recent tools such as vite and snowpack are built on using rollup for frontend projects. You do need to install the plugins you want to use as they aren't all available out of the box, but generally I haven't had any troubles and basically just stick to the official plugins.
tazard··on The GitHub Arctic Code Vault
I'm really curious about this too. I haven't been able to find this information anywhere.
tazard··on Show HN: Find remote jobs with great culture fit
Looks really good! Thanks, I'll need to keep this bookmarked.
tazard··on Editors (Vim)
This makes so much sense. Thanks for explaining that.
tazard··on Making Vue 3
Mostly, not completely I believe
tazard··on Stadia owners on Reddit blasting Google over radio silence and lack of support
The Chromecast is a Chromecast, and the controller works on my PC with steam just fine. (Although it appears wireless doesn't work)
tazard··on Write Virtual Modular Synth Modules in JavaScript or Lua with VCV Prototype
Hey very cool! I would love to find some time to get started with this
tazard··on Show HN: Botmake.io – Super simple and clean chatbot creation tool
Neat, I have a few thoughts. It took me awhile to realize the showcase we're interactive though. I just assumed they were sponsors or something and scrolled past.

I feel like maybe the response times are to fast? (They seem instant) so it doesnt feel like a real conversation.

Also aside from being cool (well done) I'm not sure what the purpose of this is. Why do I want it?

tazard··on Union Types have been accepted for PHP 8
That is an old version, the current being https://laravel.com/api/6.x/ but I have to agree, I have found them to be great. There is no reference to the API docs from the main website though, which I have always found odd.
tazard··on Recursive Mono and Sans, a free variable type family
It supports => for me. haven't tested any others
tazard··on Up5k_basic
Zachtronics makes great programming games. (Currently playing Shenzhen I/O). I for one think your idea sounds very cool. I don't know anything about 6502 programming, but that would be part of the puzzle.
tazard··on Steve Jobs Is Dead
I don't know anything about the article, but I know Twitter suspended my account immediately after confirming my email and following 1 person. I appealed and they restored it, I logged in and they immediately suspended my account again with no explanation. I don't think it's a conspiracy, just that their automated bots can be trolls
tazard··on Amazon makes grocery delivery free for Prime members
Need to get rid of all that expired inventory somehow I guess
tazard··on Show HN: Tiny-Swiper – 2kb alternative to SwiperJS with the same modern API
Looks nice, lately I have just been using css scroll snapping, but I would imagine this has much better browser compatibility.
tazard··on Victor Mono – A free programming font
Oh thanks. I didn't realize you could enable italics only for comments. That's exactly what I was looking for!
