Same here. Easily one of the worst parts of AI in my personal life. They don't even know about en dashes :(

This is something I've wanted to do for a while! I wish Samsung still produced their 55" 8K displays-- 8k @ 55" gives you effectively the same PPI as a 27" 4K display. Maybe someday.

Cool project! This post also appears to be the second result on google when searching "vercel app" (as of +7 hours from your post), which I also found interesting.

I wasn't aware of Roccat! sounds like what I'm after, especially without the gamer aesthetics. The Roccat Nyth looks close to what I'm after, but I'm pretty married to my muscle memory with using 4x3 buttons (of which ar

Haha, of course! So when you click a button on the G600 (and most other mice with side buttons), the button fires when you press down, just like the Mouse 1 or Mouse 2 button. On the G600, there is a third click button to the right of the r

I have used SteerMouse for years after giving up on the dumpster fire that is Logitech's G-HUB for macOS for my G600, which has 12 side buttons + a the G-Shift button which when held acts a modifier for additional macros. My issue with

I'm seeing a lot of comments like this, but I have no idea what your camp is trying to say. The bill isn't a criticism of TikTok's operation, its a criticism on its ownership and how that ownership + influence creates an expl

I daily drove a hackintosh for years until I recently pivoted to apple silicon. I was a very enjoyable experience for me. The success and reliability of a hackintosh is really dependent on your hardware configuration. I had lucked out that

From my experience, the thing that makes using AI image gen hard to use is nailing specificity. I often find myself having to resort to generating all of the elements I want out of an image separately and then comp them together with photos

I thought it was "Pea" in the sense that the site is a small .js codebase. Now I'm very curious of the lore...are all 3 of us wrong?

Nice post, OP! I was super impressed with the Apple's vision framework. I used it on a personal project involving the OCRing of tens of thousands of spreadsheet screenshots and ingesting them into a postgres database. I tried other OCR

I found a config that worked for me using TST so I haven’t explored other methods for vertical tabs. What eventually convinced you to try Sidebery and what convinced you not to switch back to TST? I’m curious what I’m missing out on!

I don’t use containers all that much (I just auto clear cookies and history when Firefox is relaunched) but I can’t overstate the workflow upgrade that was my switching to TST a few years ago. That combined with a plethora of mouse macros f

They may be referring to stackline https://github.com/AdamWagner/stackline I've used it in the past, it was very aesthetically pleasing but did not work consistently enough for me to use day to day.

For me, the gap between 3.5 and 4 is massive. If I'm stuck between using 3.5 and doing the work myself, more often than not, I'm choosing to do it myself. Not to imply 3.5 is unusable, its just my bar for minimum fidelity is close

I'm not a professional in VFX, but I work in television and do a lot of VFX/3D work on the side. The quality isn't amazing, but it looks like this could be the start of a Midjourney-tier VFX/3D LLM, which would be awesom

I'll take a tollbooth over something passive like ad injection every single day of the week.
