@dang Not that it really matters, but why is this not a duplicate of my post? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47962269
There is no way I’m going back to wired headphones. I always hated them. Cables lasted a few years at best leaving the headphones unrepairable. And when using them while moving I could only here my own steps. Plain awful.
Since when is E2EE controversial? Not using E2EE should be controversial.

This reminds me of Phonebloks from 13 years ago.

This is build into iOS DND already. It can automatically activate based on location.

This is an open source version of another game called Cube World, which was basically a scam when it came out. Had only a few of the promised features and didn’t update for years.

Wasn’t this supposed to be solve by App Clips? [0] I used this only once or twice, and the idea kinda seems abandoned.

I honestly think the person that is to blame here is you. Yes, there might be some weird decisions here, but if you get so mad about those minor changes, you should make at least some research before updating.

Federating forgejo instances will be really interesting. Hopefully this could be an alternative to GitHub.
Re:Ask HN: How To: Store and share passwords in a company? on Monday September 02, 2024 @11:57AM (#41426522)
A lot of people are recommending 1Password as a password manager. Why is this better than Bitwarden or self hosting Vaultwarden?

I like his tone. For me as a non-native speaker, I never had any trouble understanding him.

I'm not sure but often in such scenarios you want to work under a slight vacuum so in case there is a leak, air goes in instead of beryllium vapor shooting out.
Re:mpv a free, open-source, and cross-platform media player on Saturday August 17, 2024 @05:19PM (#41278058)
On macOS there is IINA which uses mpv under the hood but with a more native GUI.
Why is this better than rsycn or scp?
Re:Okay, I Like WezTerm on Monday August 12, 2024 @10:52AM (#41225090)
I love Ghostty. On my old MacBook, it was by far the fastest terminal emulator (yes, I tried all of them, also WezTerm and Alacritty). Now on my new Mac it is still the most beautiful terminal emulator.
