No no no.. go one better for the Mac. It should be whichever device/s which are next to be made legacy from Apple’s 7 year support window. That way you’re actually catering to the lowest common denominator.

96gb on baseline model m3 ultra with a max of 512gb! Looks like they’re leaning in hard with the AI crowd.

Are you sure you meant to use “FUD” in this sentence? It doesn’t make sense. “Elon and his sales team (“they”) are selling this fear uncertainty and doubt”.

EVE Online has highly sophisticated user fingerprinting to prevent fraud and real money trading. So even if you got through with that email address it wouldn't be long before an issue was raised for your account. With EVE, fraud comes

I know your question is for Windows, but in case someone was wondering about MacOS: Aside from being able to manage some persistent login items under Settings > Users > Login Items, there is a free tool available from Patrick Wardle t

Although to be fair, while this has been super annoying, they are slowly getting there with recent releases. It definitely has the new product manager 'start from scratch clean slate' vs 'inherited mess' while co-existin

How do you know what the UDM IPS does/does not block? Is it displayed somewhere? Is it updated at a different cadence to the firmware/software updates?

I'm not sure if you're guessing, but DocuSign and Adobe Sign's per-envelope (not per signature) rate is expensive and doesn't scale down on volume as quickly as you'd think. In fact, to get lower rates.. you need to

Further to this, doesn't Chrome and Safari quietly auto-ping/reload pages that "fail to connect" if they're left open in a tab or browser?

Fires, too!

Wow, he articulated my thoughts on Safari perfectly. A lot of poor UX decisions. Especially the fav icon close button reveal on hover!

Loving the look of this. Amazing work! Are there any plans to provide diagramming and documentation support? Since I’m on MacOS One feature I really liked about DBSchema (Java for cross platform) was the ability to digram tables and relatio

Just to clarify in case OP wasn’t aware, HackerNews readers are often privacy conscious folk, and it’s quite well known that Microsoft (like Google and Facebook) embed a lot of user activity monitoring into their applications. The audience

Haha whoa, I didn’t realise at one point EVE Online released an update that deleted the Boot.ini file. (Below the Iceberg) [0]: https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/about-the-boot.ini-issue

Indeed. In particular is when an update is released for an app on the App Store where the developer removes or moves features to subscription or 'in app purchase'. "Free to Fee". If this isn't mentioned in the updat

Great to see a Notes solution that is: -Multi Platform -iCloud storage based -Subscription OR “buy forever” Now, I can’t tell from first glance if: 1) attachments are possible? (Like apple notes) 2) passcode protection for notes is possible

With regards to “just as good”, don’t forget M1 is like 25 watts max draw at the wall. You are also paying an inefficiency premium for the life of your “cobbled together” config. There are pros/cons.
