Movable type was the most popular blogging software in 2003 and it was essentially this. An admin app written in Perl that spit out static files. It is kind of surprising that no one tried to do an updated version.

The headline is: “AI Safety Donors Paid Religious NGOs $3.3M for Statements on AI” The headline above states: “Anthropic & friends…” It’s at best a misleading change, though the article merits discussion.

Bluetooth is actually only used to establish proximity. Both your phone and the browser connect to an internet relay, which lets the phone essentially pretend to be a USB security key connected to the computer.

I recently switched from Safari to Zen and the Firefox extension for Apple passwords works well. You have to enter a pushed 6 digit code when you first start the browser, but it’s relatively painless.

Zen is genuinely so nice. I have been a Safari die hard because for so long it’s been remarkable at resource efficiency. After switching my macOS window management to aerospace, Zen finally got me to switch away. And it’s great that it load

I guess this is just what selection pressure looks like. It’s possible that adults who struggle to navigate social media and agitprop to the extent that they can’t imagine being able to raise kids in the 21st century might actually be right

It’s a free country. This sort of boycott would just result in Black Rifle Pizza.

The number one reason I wear an Apple Watch all summer is the UV index complication. If the number is at 4 and trending down I let the kids run free.

This is funded by the mushroom dispensary stores operating in the open in Vancouver. LSD is very low risk for adulterants, partly because it’s cheap to produce and is somewhat separate from other supply chains, partly because the effective

It makes sense when you realize that the US has a similar scope and a larger number of states in it than Europe did at the time. Analogies between the United States and specific states in Europe often done work as well as US <-> Europ

Canada. But there aren't that many of us, and the absolute number and political units also matter if you care about warming as a practical problem. There are two interesting things about per capita CO2eq in this graph. 1. China is st

All of Alberta was ceded to the crown through the numbered treaties prior to the establishment of the province. Are you implying that there’s something about treaty 8 that makes it different from treaty 4, 6, 7, and 10? It’s all ceded terri

It’s fun to rewatch Days of Heaven once you’ve unlocked that each of the main characters is tied to a different element (earth, wind, fire, and water). That he could employ such a straightforward and have it all work so well is still asto

I love it too, I actually decided to never read the book because all the book readers I have talked to hated it. Highly recommend the upscaled to 4k fan edit on YouTube. They splice in lost footage that was cut from Lynch’s initial edit. h

Labour won a majority of the seats but barely increased their percentage of the vote (33.7%) over what they managed in the previous election when they lost handily (32.1%). It was the most disproportionate election in UK history in terms of

I was going to do the same thing. I posted elsewhere on this thread how the third party app Clic for Sonos has saved me. Might be worth a try before you go through the expense of changing over.

by krrrh 2y ago
The debacle caused me to try out all the third party apps and I finally found Clic (iOS only), which is made by an indie developer and implements lots of modern stuff that the official app will probably never get around to (live activities

I don’t understand this sort of comment. The warning windows aren’t “huge”. In practice is clicking through the dialog any more cumbersome than typing sudo and entering your password? In reality is the dialog any less appropriate for the av

I’m curious if simply running the proton mail bridge on a Mac at home would allow the native mail app feed “semantic” context across devices to iOS.

I already linked to this article on Advanced Data Protection for iCloud (e2ee for most things) in a different comment, but it feels like a lot of people don’t know about this feature. It literally has zero effect on the user experience (exc

Vancouver until fairly recently had the same thing. I remember a hostel downtown that had a boisterous bar where one side had the license and one side didn’t for some arcane reason and they had a three foot fence with a swinging door separa

Can’t you just use a mouse and keyboard as controllers? It’s hard to imagine any hardware peripheral that would improve on them for making a keynote or we’d already be using it on our desktops.

That’s a really great endorsement. I had Zinsser as a textbook for a non-fiction creative writing class in university. It was one of the only textbooks I never had a compunction to sell. Haven’t read it since then, but your comment will mak

Link aggregators was what site like this, digg, and reddit were called when they started. They introduced a social aspect for upvoting content into a dynamic feed. It’s something more than a forum, and something less than what later became

Signal runs on donations with a small staff and budget, and even still half of its infrastructure budget goes to sending a verification SMS on sign-up. You can run an open chat network as a tiny non-profit, and any hope of profits is in the
