Kagi is so good
Great work!! Very clever.

MacOS screenshot tool on steroids: https://cleanshot.com/
I’m not interested in starting a flame war, but am interested to know how many of the users who were being tracked everywhere they go without the app being opened were iOS users and how many were android. Unfortunately the post doesn’t go into much detail.
Yeah that’s fair too
Yeah maybe, I think most other companies tho would recognize that all of that is such a small part of their business and cut it off.

I’m so happy Apple doesn’t.

Re:UBS Acquires Wealthfront for $1.4B on Friday January 28, 2022 @05:24PM (#30121284)
Thought about integrating it with Alpacha?
Is it not on the safari 'store' because of the $99 a year?
Feature request: Add in the iOS app safari extension thing so you when you browse to `www.allrecipes.com` or similar it opens in your app.
I guess that's what ratings are for. Who knows if it'll taste good to your taste buds, but if many others like it that could be a good indication.
I'm curious how you wrote the logic for recipe detection? I've know some others who've tried to solve this and like many pattern recognition tasks it turns out to be harder than you'd think, but not impossible of course. Just curious how you did it.

Just set this up on my NAS, it’s so helpful. Really hope their business tier proves profitable, these free/easy features for personal account are great.

Nice! This looks great.
Re:Blender and the Rabbids on Sunday July 04, 2021 @04:53PM (#27732536)
Blender is insanely great, and honestly one of the best fully open source software projects out there. The only thing I wish from it is Apple M1 support. Personally, I’m just not sure I’m going to own a big desktop computer with an Nvidia gpu ever again.
Agreed, this is one of the main points of view often not brought up
Re:5G: The outsourced elephant in the room on Saturday April 17, 2021 @11:43AM (#26845091)
There’s a clear bias in your thinking against the US and for Sweden. Any of the points you bring up could equally apply to both places, but you come out bring the negative against one and the positive against the other.

Look up blender donut on YouTube. Amazingly well done.
Re:Blender 2.92 on Friday February 26, 2021 @11:30AM (#26276514)
Is this the version that gets Apple M1 support? I know it’s on their roadmap and I thought it was 2.92, but I don’t see anything in the release notes. Might not be big enough to mention.

Agreed. There're several other good articles about this. Here's one: https://www.forbes.com/sites/quora/2017/08/15/why-americas-t...

That's true in more or less every job, it can be done well or done poorly. Incentive should be keeping the job at all. Tips are an infuriating hidden cost.

good point
Would love to get GPU accelerated learning in Lobe (http://www.lobe.ai).
Thanks!

Yeah it’s an apt time. Of course I’m not sure the legal request will stick.
Your google point is pretty valid, they’d be removing a source of income and sending users to a competitor. I think DDG is fine for the time being.
Re:Comparative advantage and when to blow up your island on Tuesday September 15, 2020 @07:45PM (#24487997)
I think the root of the problem you’re getting at isn’t that we shouldn't have leaders we elect, but that education and trustworthy journalism in a democracy are vitally important.
Re:Apple Terminates Epic Games' Developer Account on Saturday August 29, 2020 @02:32AM (#24314120)
I strongly doubt that, I’d bet prices would remain the same and Epic would pocket more
