Moving everything in class seems like a good idea in theory. But in practice, kids need more time than 50 minutes of class time (assuming no lecture) to work on problems. Sometimes you will get stuck on 1 homework question for hours. If a s

It's easy to break your phone addiction—I've done it a 1,000 times... But, seriously, I've tried launchers, leechblock, and other software solutions. For me, they don't work long term because I end up just reverting and

I'm a current owner of a Ratta Supernote A5X. I use the Supernote all the time. I previously had a Remarkable 2, but thankfully Remarkable added a subscription which made me look elsewhere and led me to the Supernote. This seems right

For users, one of the ways PWAs are superior to native apps is that the user gets to use an app at all. It's hard to maintain 2 or 3 different codebases of an app, which means it might not get built at all. As a user, I'd rather u

Neat! I recently bought a Sony NW-A306. I wish the battery lasted longer. Also, Android is slow and janky. On the other hand, it's Android so it runs Spotify. Hope Tangara is better!

The section on fractional scaling issues wouldn't exist if Framework offered a Linux compatible non HiDPI display. It's a shame for Linux users that they decided to pick a display type that has had known issues for like a decade.

Firefox on Android runs uBlock Origin. But no uBlacklist. Kagi does have that built in.

Yeah, I'm strictly talking about search results. That's the main thing I care about. No ads is nice, but if I can't find information I need then that's not very useful to me.

I'm currently paying for Kagi. It's nice. But, so far I feel like it may only be like 2% better than Google, probably not enough to keep me long term. A lot of times the results are better on Kagi than Google, but not by much. It

Am I the only one who (mostly) likes this new policy? I actively try to delete my online accounts—and it's _hard_ (or impossible for some companies). I definitely have some Google accounts from like 10 years ago that I lost access to.
