Re:Show HN: Explore what the browser exposes about you on Sunday November 30, 2025 @05:32AM (#46095520)
On my iPhone that has iOS 26 installed, the page says my device is on iOS 18.7

Am I missing something? That doesn’t math the way math should math.

Neato. The rich became richer.
Re:McDonald's is losing its low-income customers on Saturday November 22, 2025 @06:39AM (#46014001)
I mean, near me there are a couple of places that sell sometimes even better quality than McDonald’s for lower prices, so McDonald’s loses the competition in the financial convenience factor.
I guess silicon valley truly makes you tone deaf.
I didn’t know that, thank you for this very useful info!
Free speech my ass. Yeah OpenAI is looking dumb, but also they’re riding a money wave at the moment. Good look trying to compete with Wikipedia, he’ll fail. You’re only saying that about solar energy to sell more of your panels, Elon.
My god, I love how they’re moving further and further away from being an open organization.

At what point will they change their name?

Re:Why does Swiss cheese have holes? on Sunday November 02, 2025 @06:48PM (#45794459)
As a kid, I was told it was due to rats and other critters getting into the cheese.

I’d then proceed to wonder why no adults thought to throw it out, much less eat the stuff.

Re:The Suppliers Behind the Apple Pencil Pro on Saturday November 01, 2025 @06:39PM (#45786078)
I somehow forgot that the Apple Pencil Pro was a real product.

At first, I thought this story was satire/fake.

Re:CharlotteOS – An Experimental Modern Operating System on Saturday November 01, 2025 @03:52PM (#45784751)
I’m very happy I’m seeing more open source kernels being released.

More options (and thus) competition is very healthy.

Re:Fire TV: Amazon to block piracy apps in the future on Saturday November 01, 2025 @03:09AM (#45779776)
This just feels like such an Apple thing to do.

Tell people what they are and are not allowed to install on their device, then use piracy as the reason, when in reality it's simply because Amazon wants control over the device they sold to you.

Also, app store revenue splits.

So I'm not crazy to think that this project does nothing. (or at at least very little)
Re:Chromium Browser DoS Attack via Document.title Exploitation on Thursday October 30, 2025 @11:53PM (#45768239)
Think you might be right, while reading through the README, I noticed some common LLM pattern words.

Also, some sections of the README completely read as generated by an LLM.

I run two partitions: one for gaming (windows) and one for everything else (linux)
I’ve apparently already starred the repository.
I don’t like it, but I’m not surprised a writing tool got invaded with LLM features.
Re:What we talk about when we talk about sideloading on Wednesday October 29, 2025 @12:54AM (#45742759)
I've stopped trusting Google and it's products entirely.

They say one thing, then do another.
