I recommend Bitwarden. Cheaper and just as good as 1Password IMHO.
I can't remember ever seeing a Safari nag.

That's exactly it. Modern buildings are cheaper, so they get built. Cash rules everything in construction, and nobody wants to build expensive unless they have an idealist client.

To be fair, a Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra costs just as much.
I'm pretty sure it's "Is Darwin really all that exciting?"

Fastmail is Australian though.

I have absolutely no problem with the weight. My only gripe is with the battery and lack of a power button.
Re:Toyota Fluorite: "console-grade" Flutter game engine on Thursday February 12, 2026 @08:35AM (#46988644)
I agree. Going back to a car without a 360 camera is unthinkable now that I've gotten so used to it...
I agree, but it's already been 15 years since it was released so I'm losing hope..
Of course, the downside is that people might not even see your site at all because they’re afraid to click on that suspicious link.

Really? I find it to be the complete opposite.

Because Safari comes pre-installed on billions of devices?

Re:Finding the Best Sleep Tracker on Tuesday April 01, 2025 @08:34AM (#43546011)
I've found Garmin's sleep tracking to be unreliable. For instance, if I lie in bed reading before I fall asleep, it often incorrectly logs that time as sleep.

I've taken the Coding Font blind test tournament a couple of times the last years, and I somehow always end up with Fira Code as the winner.

He did though:

That was back in 2019..

How do I downvote on HN?
Edge has a convenient split view feature that allows you to set links from the first pane to open in the second pane, rather than in a new tab. Particularly useful for browsing Hacker News etc.
It’s the reason I bought an EQC instead of a Model Y. It has screens, but all important functions also have physical buttons.
Re:Cleaning up my 200GB iCloud with some JavaScript on Saturday January 06, 2024 @06:29AM (#38890528)
This only works for files saved locally though. Doesn’t help with large files on the iCloud server.
No you’re right. It’s the same logo with a color shift and droplets removed:

I’ll add Raycast, which is a launcher but does so much more (including window management)

If you visit the link posted in the comments above, you will see that it wasn't only thoughts about circumcision but also pictures.

Re:Ask HN: What perfect software did you discover of recent? on Monday December 04, 2023 @07:19PM (#38525298)
I would also recommend Raycast. It’s a launcher, but it can also windows management - and so much more.

Re:Amiga Graphics Archive on Tuesday November 28, 2023 @05:41PM (#38452504)
Oh this brings back a lot of memories. I was fascinated by the Amiga demo scene when I was younger and especially the graphics and logos. Watched countless demos and intros. Made, Fade One, Facet and Ra were some of my favorite graphics artist back then.
Agreed. I look around in my office and no one else than me is running any kind of adblocker. Most people don’t care or don’t even know adblockers exist.
