I'm not a fan of taking zoom calls while my mic picks up the voice of the person that sits across the room. I'd call being able to communicate via voice call without noise issues a need. While it can be done, constantly hearing

Is that true though? I'm reading HN on an app built using Flutter. I had no idea until recently, so I would assume more apps could use it without my knowledge. I understand it's limitations vs native apps, but there's quite

If you didn't mind sharing, I'd like to hear more about your use case. I'm assuming these would be things like temp/humidity sensors and such. I suppose you'd want to avoid wake-ups and radio use as much as possib

Yeah, it's gonna be more than that. You'll also need a hot plate, flux, solder wick. I'd double that price to 120, not to mention it takes quite a bit of practice to learn bga soldering.

Yeah, I don't think I'd have made the jump otherwise, since convincing others on the team would have been much harder.

Looks neat. Might give it a go tomorrow.

Probably nice to have for those with low income that only have a Chromebook.

This except in production. Nothing helped. I actually stopped using containers for a bit after that.

Reminds me of a NES that I overclocked when I was around 14 years old. It was the sort of silly thing a nerdy kid would do with too much free time on their hands, and didn't do much to improve the system. Most of the time it caused m

I thought this law was just a joke, but after Manny years of development, I'm finding out it's very real. It's also increasingly painful to make happen in today's email ecosystem.

What are the practical applications of this? The things that come to mind when I hear "ultrasound" are medical devices and wall scanners. That said, it's a cool project, even if it doesn't have a practical use.

How much does display calibration factor into this? I'm fairly confident it must impact the results, but unsure how much error it would introduce.

"Sucking at something is the first step to being sorta good at something" ~Jake the Dog (Adventure Time) I feel this doesn't get taught enough in school and it's a really important life lesson.

Honestly surprised it took this long. I guess it's less than ideal, since the wii doesn't support modern tv resolutions.

If we could send every politician as a prerequisite for the job, I think it would greatly benefit mankind. It would be far more difficult to make corrupt decisions after seeing our only inhabitable rock against that vast emptiness, or at l

Neat educational game. Would have liked to see Maple Mono in the line up, but I'm sure you've gotta draw the line somewhere or the game would be too tedious.

Same. Came down to Fira Code and PT Mono. I already use Fira Code, so I probably biased to what I'm used to. I do think that Fira Code is hard to beat when it comes to ambiguous characters.

I really thought we'd be using a Firefox powered by Servo by now, but instead we're getting a second UI rewrite. At least it's not becoming a chromium wrapper.

Agreed, once you've spent hrs fighting with C build tools under a deadline, it becomes very easy to see why this is beneficial.

It's can a long time since I've heard those sound clips. Brings back a lot of great memories of playing WCIII as a teen. Didn't have the money at the time to play WoW, so I ended up playing Guild wars instead. I never tried

You can pick a used one up for pretty cheap. Add a flash cartridge and you're done. I think the cheap android handhelds of the same form factor are a better option though. I've still got my Gameboy collection, but rarely use it.

It's a shame they didn't add a photo with another object for reference. Without looking at the price and dimensions, it looks pretty unassuming.

This is great. Makes these tools much more discoverable. I can help but notice the drop in plugin ui quality one you click the foss filter checkbox. Something in me wants a foss plugin to come with a cool skin like the free ones do, but

I had a quick thought to do something like this a while back, but never got around to the experimental phase. I ended up buying a new controller instead (whilst grumbling about making an adapter). Thanks for making it happen, and being k

Welp, I guess Firefox forks are gonna get a lot more users in the near future. Hopefully turning off the ai features will be an available option as mentioned, but hopefully they'll be off by default.

If you don't mind me asking, what did you end up buying, and what was lacking support? I'd expect full support from one of the "Linux first" suppliers like System76.

by gkhartman 9mo ago
Good point. That seems like a good option as well if you don't need any other features. I don't really use many of the smart features, but the ability to set up cleaning zones in valetudo has been really nice. Same goes for &quo

Thank you! I was looking for this comment amongst the "this was easy" ones. I was pretty young when this game came out. I rarely got past this landing. I think I still have the Top Gun NES cartridge in a box somewhere. Maybe

Second this if you are willing to do some mild hardware hacking. I've been running valetudo on two Dreame L10 vacuums for three years without issue. Keeps a lot of the smart features, for use over lan instead of a cloud connection.

I've had a similar experience. I avoid most Bluetooth devices as a result. I can vouch for the CMF Buds Pro 2. They're the first bt buds I've had with good noise cancelling on mic that weren't made by Apple.
