This looks so promising as a lightweight replacement for Bridge or Photo Mechanic and the interface is great. Has a lot of opportunity on the actual image rendering and performance side, but will definitely keep up with updates on how it ev

Batch photo editors already exist, like the long standing and superb Retrobatch. It’s $30-50 as a one time purchase. https://flyingmeat.com/retrobatch/ Also, oddly, this post highlights “no subscription” about their pr

Pleasant and responsive lightweight design, but the game itself just has no difficulty to it. Tried four puzzles and all were done in 15 seconds.

Sure, but also no. By that reasoning, you might say there's no such thing as bad art. In most cases, things are designed with the best of intentions and may or may not be successful for their audience. But a standalone ILC is already a

So much love and respect for VLC as robust pioneering open source software, but also in 2024, it feels like extremely antiquated and sluggish on a Mac. Highly recommend folks check out IINA which is .

While a chargeback is effectively the right move, most large companies have extremely heavy handed responses to it even if it's to correct their error you've made good faith effort to resolve. As I think someone else mentioned, th

Is this an email address harvesting scam? There is no product here. The website is so generic and devoid of any detail that it can't be real. It's for foodies and costs "pending $".

I'm sorry. Your company is a knock off of Blinkist with a logo you swiped from Summly?

How will you make a business out of this or support its ongoing development? Strava has a fairly robust free product and the nominal monthly cost for their premium service seems worth it to those more serious and want the extras. I guess I&

Saving a picture finally downloads it at full resolution rather than a horribly compressed one. Thumbs up.

That seems really unlikely. Doesn't the FCC limit the range at which consumer radio products can transmit from their source? So, part of it is a technological limitation of WiFi, but also legal. And long-distance WiFi already exists, isn't

How have they lost? Sparrow doesn't work any less well than it did before the acquisition. This is not a product that relied on a service that has been shut down. It still has the same utility it did before. I guess my feeling on it is that

I should have provided some context since this isn't exactly the usual HN subject matter. Earlier this week, Gap Clothing changed their logo from the old iconic blue box logo to the new one which is essentially another Helvetica wordmark an

Yep, Apple laptops keep the RAM powered up until the battery level dips down to 20%, then it writes the contents to disk when the machine sleeps. It's called Safesleep and you can tweak this if you'd like by using a utility called Smartslee

The point of the site is to find out where to purchase a prepaid GSM SIM to use in an existing phone. Not where to buy all new equipment on an unreliable service.

Most of the information in the Boost Mobile section is completely wrong. They run on Motorola's iDEN network primarily although some of their recent phones run on Sprint CDMA. Those CDMA phones do support 3G as part of their Power Vision ne

Ditto. I've been running a DroboPro with eight 1.5TB WD drives and the device has been running fine connected via iSCSI to a Mac mini and shared across the network via NFS. It's not loud, not silent but not loud. Read/write speeds are perfe

This isn't particularly germane or relevant, but this reminded me of that episode of Weeds... Nancy: The kids go to my sister, Jill. Not to Andy. Ok? Jill. Her number's in my book. Jill Price-Grey with a fucking hyphen. Lupita: (Writing thi

Verizon's plans and charges are almost dollar for dollar the exact same as AT&T, their global web/email services are actually a bit cheaper. Apple would have no interest in partnering with T-Mobile, heck, their service is worse and spot

Well, the UK situation involves three GSM carriers. In the United States, the only prominent GSM competitor to AT&T is T-Mobile, and they have no need or intention to get their phone on a budget carrier. With Verizon, they'd have to des
