Re:Apple restricts Pebble from being awesome with iPhones on Wednesday March 19, 2025 @05:32AM (#43409837)
I've bought a Mac for the first time in my life after 15 or more years on Linux because the hardware is superior than pcs. Software sucks, not sure how people can live with that, especially tech people. I suffer every day poor and weird design decisions. Phone side, I'm an Android user and I've been living with iphone users in the last 10 years, and I must say the software in iphones is getting comparatively worse and worse. I believe avg app (probably developers) quality is a bit higher, but they usually fall behind functionality wise, and you pay well for that small quality gap. Friends who switched to iphone recently are now switching back. I'm not an average user, but I can see how software quality in apple is going down and affecting real users. Even iphone aficionados are starting to notice, which says a lot.

As you can see in this case (one of many) the last email I received was an acknowledgment of unsubscription. Then I didn't receive anything until today. Also last year there was no christmas email like this during this time of the year.

Ask HN: Did you start receiving more commercial emails after moving to the US?

from the ask-hn dept.

I am very careful with my email inbox, and try to unsubscribe regularly to commercial emails I get from various service I sign up to. From my understanding, lately in Europe it was forbidden to make commercial email notification opt-in the default, but still there are some services which find creative ways to send you unwanted emails and I always take the steps needed to unsubscribe when I see...

Re:What Does My Site Cost? on Wednesday July 07, 2021 @08:49AM (#27760493)
France isn't bad also, right know I have a plan with 150gb for 20€, and 50gb abroad (roaming) which includes US. I think there are better plans but I've chosen this one also because I'm planning to move to the US and I'd like to test if keeping this plan would be a cheaper viable alternative to local contracts.
Re:Ask HN: What is your blog and why should I read it? on Tuesday April 07, 2020 @05:20AM (#22801641)
I sometimes blog at www.nicassio.it/daniele/blog and you probably shouldn't read it. It's just a collection of mostly little side projects.
Re:Customizable charts of Covid-19 Data on Monday April 06, 2020 @08:49PM (#22799374)
One of the creators here. I think we will implement it soon, BTW, we thought it would be nice to have a ready to go platform to make charts that are easily sharable and most important thing they will automatically update as soon as the data gets updated.
