Did the same in 2015s with PHP, was so surprised to find an image inside explorer.exe file. It was an embedded BMP picture which I could see without even a picture viewer tool!
Re:Car touchscreens are cheap, not good

Yes, you still need to look at the screen but could pause this in any position of the selected item and continue after looking back at the road.
I was driving an F150 with just a touch screen and it was much worse when I needed to find an item on the screen and try to touch it on a far-located screen in a shaking car.

Oh, my bad, the touch screen isn’t working when the car is moving. But this is just a Mazda restriction, not a technical one.

With a knob, you always could stop what you are doing and look back at the road and then continue. With a touch screen, you need to find a button and touch it without looking at the road, or you need to do it from the start again.

Not sure why the command knob in Mazda scares new users: it’s an option and you still could use the touch screen, it’s just a nice alternative for it…
Absolutely love the command knob, so much better than using the touch screen

This should be just a static page… Cloudflare pages are perfect for this. All updating could be done in the repo by special scripts from MD or some other files.

Running this model on a 48 GB memory MacBook Pro when offline, it performs its tasks, but of course, it’s slower than Claude or Codex.

Agree, and a lot of software on Mac tends to do the same thing: Codex, Claude Code, and so on. Fortunately, it’s just one of many options, and we can use Homebrew in 95% of cases.
P.S. Installing Homebrew is also officially done by running a shell script from GitHub.

Created the same tool some time ago for Codex and Claude code: showing percents for both in the menu bar and detailed stats when you click on it. Using it literally every day, feel free to try: https://github.com/max2697/RateLimited
Feedback greatly appreciated!
Hm, second try? And Siri AI again without dates. First time it was also “later” but was postponed for how many years?

Re:Removing the modem and GPS from my 2024 RAV4 hybrid

Seems like this way of using CarPlay isn’t documented. Bluetooth is used for discovery and WiFi/USB for CarPlay communication but not for providing car and internet access. Using users’ phone data without notice could be noticeable by users as well…
Re:Removing the modem and GPS from my 2024 RAV4 hybrid

Also thought about it. It’s possible, but requires enabling hotspot on the phone. Without it, it will not share internet via BT.
Re:Localsend: An open-source cross-platform alternative to AirDrop
on Tuesday April 28, 2026 @08:22PM (#47942668)
Researched this for a bit: there is some hardware for PCI supporting it, but Windows 10/11 not, and Linux is still work in progress, so no real support on OS level, only for some iOS/Android devices.
Re:Localsend: An open-source cross-platform alternative to AirDrop
on Tuesday April 28, 2026 @11:13AM (#47935762)
So, should there be apps that use it to transfer files between iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac without requiring them to be on the same network?
Re:Localsend: An open-source cross-platform alternative to AirDrop
on Tuesday April 28, 2026 @11:09AM (#47935709)
Airdrop is also pretty weird: sometimes it can’t find other phones (probably when a previous transfer failed silently in the background). Also, it had some issues searching for contacts when there was no mobile/Wi-Fi connection (tried to send photos to another phone in the mountains). Sometimes it could just freeze and not work… Apple magic here isn’t really useful.

Using LocalSend to send files across iOS, Mac and Windows. When everything is on the local network, it works pretty nicely.

Well, another confirmation that security policies, release strategies, and guardrails, which before used to prevent accidents like “Our junior developer dropped the prod database,” still need to be used as agents aren’t any magical solutions for everything, aren’t the smartest AI that knows everything and knows even more than it had in context.
Rules are the same for everyone, not only humans here.

Just a week ago, I asked ChatGPT to find me something and found Drive Weather iOS app, which I started using.
I was also thinking of building something myself, but this one is good enough. Have you tried it or any other similar apps? Why did you decide to build a new one and why is it better? (Building just for fun is an option as well!)

You’re also cutting off developers who care about the cybersecurity of their agents and don’t want to point them to random websites that could contain dangerous prompt injections, as well as people who want to understand where they’re directing the agent and why before doing so
