I was watching clips of LinusTechTips' podcast, and he said that speaking to people who he trusts in the mobile phone space, that SD removal was primarily because SD flash is worse than the onboard stuff and they lose more customers wh

When I was in a phase of really enjoying IPv6, I went out and bought one of these: https://ipv6buddy.com I don't type in many IPv6 addresses anymore, so this doesn't see much use anymore. It does make a great desk nick

I wonder why there aren't more "casks" for MacPorts. On my work MacBook, I've got Firefox, Google Chrome, Orbstack, and Visual Studio Code installed via brew casks, and none of them are present in the MacPorts catalog. M

Not exactly what you're looking for, but your comment about abusing pings made me remember pingfs [1]. It brings an entirely new definition of cloud computing! [1] - https://github.com/yarrick/pingfs

While I don't agree with everything in the post, I still found it thought provoking. I'll still be serving my sites with HTTPS.

Highly suggest checking out Firefox-UI-Fix [1]. I use it everywhere I use Firefox, and it makes the browser usable. [1] - https://github.com/black7375/Firefox-UI-Fix

Not going to install something that seems so vague, but I do use ExplorerPatcher [1] on my Windows 11 machines to basically re-create Windows 10 UI and fix all of the annoyances I have with Windows 11. I've got the old right click menu

I've been using AdGuard and haven't seen a single ad since I installed it. AdGuard seems to offer a much of the same functionality from uBlock that I enjoyed, like being able to selectively block elements on the page, and choosing

+1 for Orion. Been using it on my work laptop pretty much exclusively (still need to do testing for my work in Chrome/Firefox), and it is hands down my favorite browser. Now that 1Password natively supports Orion (they had a browser wh

I believe parts of the French government are using Matrix for their communications [1]. I've been wanting to use Matrix more and more over IRC, but I've never really liked any of the Matrix clients. I think I'm just too stuck

This is very nice, and I can see myself using this in the future. However, I have one slight piece of feedback; is there any chance you can make the delay on the menus flying out and tooltips just appearing all over the place when I move my

I was not aware of this, I will probably check this out on my Windows machine, since I've had a nasty bug where Firefox will decide to just use ALL of my GPU resources, crashing whatever game I am playing. Very annoying bug and I shoul

I use Copilot primarily as a tab-complete bot, essentially only accepting its input if that's what I was going to type. It is correct mayb ~95% of the time, but depending on the programming language it will try to suggest a large block

The handy part about Firefox, unlike Chrome, will shrink tabs to a minimum width and then make them a horizontally scrolling list. I am somewhat of a tab hoarder (I also keep browser windows on vertical monitors), so using Chrome, where it

Nowadays Apple gives it away for free, but it used to be part of the paid iWork package (or bought separately from the Mac App Store). I believe there was also a time period where it was given to users who activated a new Apple product, but

Very interesting -- thank you for the information. Just goes to show how naive I was and still am. I'll probably give this a go next time I have fun money in the budget.

Depends on the project, but I've contributed to a few big-name projects (podman being the latest) where I found a typo in their documentation, and they happily accepted it. I did talk to them in their IRC channel first, so YMMV.

I investigated and even begun the process of getting an IPv6 allocation from ARIN, but after setting up an LLC in my state ($300 + annual fees) and then jumping through the hoops ARIN (usually involved paying a fee or two), I eventually gav

Thanks for pointing this out to me, I'm sure I'm not the only one who didn't know this. I recently wanted to import my own Akkoma RSS feed into my website, and I tried searching around the Akkoma documentation and didn't

Does not seem to be the case for users on instances that use Akkoma or Pleroma, and probably other non-mastodon frontends. E.g. https://social.kernel.org/torvalds.rss

Just installed it, works flawlessly on Orion Browser (WebKit that can use Chrome & Firefox extensions). Off the bat, I like the two column view with infinite scroll. I also like the bigger text size, although it could be just a tad sm
