Lovely website, though I never quite understood why they portray the BMW 8 series saloon as a missile launcher truck. https://www.lingscars.com/personal-car-leasing/bmw/8-series-...

Love the cheeky jab at George R.R. Martin, the site works fantastically, though as others have mentioned an ISBN search would make the entire workflow miles more efficient.

The given example is shockingly similar to what may actually pop up on the HN front page.

As a former moderator of r/unixporn (I went by u/fps_co1ncidence) and a longtime ricer of all types of Linux WMs/DEs, I can most confidentially assure you that there is nothing futuristic about what goes on there, just a lot

If I remember correctly it has something to do with Microsoft patenting window drag/snapping to the edge of the screen for resizing.

I mean, it's fast, that's all it claims to be really. The UI is nothing that can't be fixed with an admittedly large amount of CSS tweaks :)

In such a situation I'd assume you have much more important things to worry about...

Pressing ZQ in insert mode also provides the same effect!

Terminal clients like weechat[1] might catch your attention, but I'm pretty sure what you're looking for just doesn't match up with modern UI conventions. I can also personally vouch for weechat, it's extremely customiza

I semi-frequently send audio files to one of the aforementioned friends of mine, and that’s about it. Everything else is just images (which signal compresses to oblivion btw) and stickers. The fact that there’s no way to view individual fil

It also eats up disk space on macOS (and I assume every other desktop considering the client is the same), I've had to reinstall it multiple times now just to save almost a dozen gigabytes of space... I'm not even an active signal

https://reyan.co Hand crafted html/scss and posts full of quite literally no meaningful content, just nice design. I’ve taken the time to make it reasonably responsive too so i’ll most likely take a break for the next coupl

First and foremost, they should work everywhere, especially the places you describe, almost every native widget (even in third party native apps) should support the readline bindings. If, however, you desire more control, you can use Kara

works like a charm here as well, and saves me from having another pretty much useless website-as-an-app installed on my phone!

Think and Grow Rich has been absolutely phenomenal in spearheading the mindset shift I've had over the past couple years, and I could not recommend it any more to anyone who wishes to have financial success in life. Some may consider t

I don't know what I expected to see after clicking on to that article but I can't say I'm disappointed lmao.

It's actually one my favorites, just remap it to CTRL or something similar and bam! You have one of the most ergonomically accessible modifier keys, much better than stretching your pinky all the time.

Not to be the devil's advocate here but... that seems fine to me? Lots of more technical people complain about terrible changelog entries (I've seen quite a few posts on HN about it too iirc), so I guess no matter what Apple does

I personally am not opposed to the Idea that there be more verification involved in important things like Phones and E-Mails (as it's usually a 1-to-1 thing per person anyways) but the privacy and logistics concerns are very valid and

Yeah I've flicked it on a couple times but rarely notice much change, though honestly it's not a search engine feature I've come to desire, as even if you get a widget the majority of the time it may parse incorrect data or n

I've also been using Kagi for ~1 month and god can I testify for how fantastic it's been. You have to TRY to find blogspam and the allowance of blacklisting domains plus some other handy search customization features make it an ab

I wouldn't say that really, there's quite a few people here (including me) who just barely have our foot in the door and would love advice from experienced people such as OP. Now whether the format of the post is acceptable to the

Just curious, what’s the reasoning behind naming it “primitive”? It’s not exactly reminiscent of the tech at play lol.

I'm pretty sure you are getting confused with the GNU recursive acronym, which was supposed to stand for "GNU's Not Unix".

It’s comments like these that slowly start to extinguish that flame i once had in me that wanted to work and chase after a “good life” once i became an adult, is it truly like this? I look around me in real life however and see what appears

lol same, i find myself mostly just lurking too. HN has filled that hole for me that reddit and 4chan left behind, I don't feel as bad for checking it so much every day though, the content here is a step up for sure.

I personally find IdiotBox[1] to be better than this as it opens links in ad free youtube embeds and also links channel and other information alongside the video itself. P.S. you can replace the “watch?=“ part of a youtube url with “/e
