Sad, I liked that ChatGPT had a native app on macOS. I don’t understand why OpenAI and Anthropic have to rely on vending universal apps when their whole MO is code being dirt cheap.

Just canceled my subscription! I immediately received an email with the subject “We’d love your feedback on why you canceled your ChatGPT plus subscription” and a link to a survey. I linked to https://notdivided.org/ as the

As far as I’m aware, Xfinity fiber customers have to use the provided “Xfinity Wi-Fi Gateway” and cannot enable bridge mode. If anyone knows a way around this, please share! I want to connect my Xfinity ONT directly to my UniFi router.

> The crash is Marine's third in several weeks Should be “the Marines’ third.” I don’t mean to be a stickler, but for a moment I thought this one pilot was crashing a plane a week!

In my much shorter 5 years, I’ve seen devs exclusively using Apple hardware. And in my team, our dev environment has become increasingly local!

Now that porting between MVNOs with eSIM is free and dead simple, I can’t think of a reason to stick with the big 3 carriers. The MVNO I stuck with even has a slick way to port between networks!

They do also charge (dearly) for usage.

My concern comes from my own naïveté. I don’t know enough about flying to know how concerned I should be. Hearing there’s a storm that affects navigation is an eyebrow-raiser, especially when sitting at an airport gate like I am.

I’m surprised how “cheap” the Manhattan Project and Apollo Program were. It’s bizarre we put people on the Moon in the ‘60s for an amount of money similar to Apple’s recent stock buybacks.

I’m a huge fan of Raycast for everything. The AI plugin included in the Raycast Pro subscription [0] can be configured with some neat “improve writing on whatever is highlighted” features. [0]: https://www.raycast.com/pro

Apple News+ is trying to be that. I get it through my Apple One family plan. The home page is shamefully Trump spam and tabloid garbage, but the magazine section isn’t terrible. I read The Atlantic and The New Yorker frequently on it.

I wish headlights + taillights were required to be always on, or at least on by default.

The VPCSB [0] had a switch at the top that could manually switch between integrated graphics for better battery, or discrete graphics for better performance. It always felt cool turning it on before gaming. [0] https://vaiolibrar

Even in dense US cities, being on two wheels is dangerous. Many people buy a car for safety, which ends up making the road even more dangerous! (To clarify, I’m not taking a jab at people looking out for their personal safety.)

The proprietary layout engine is named TALA. IMO the docs are pretty transparent about TALA being closed source and behind a paywall. TALA docs: https://d2lang.com/tour/tala/ TALA product page: https://

Anecdotal, but since I started cycling I’ve noticed an absurd amount of cars have license plate tabs that have been expired for years. There’s even a Porsche Taycan in my apartment that’s been driving without plates for over a year. It does

Are you thinking of Boom Supersonic? I know next to nothing about aviation or economics, but my gut feeling is a plane with ~80 seats for international flights will be expensive. https://boomsupersonic.com/

iCloud also supports custom domains if you’re paying for iCloud storage. I use this since I was paying for storage anyway. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212514

Anecdote incoming so take it with a grain of salt. Visible is great, but struggles with moving service between phones. I was told it would take at least a week to move from iPhone to iPhone (both eSIM!). In my experience, US Mobile (not to
