Nerd of many hats.

  • It’s humor. “Ha ha, I’m a citizen, so there’s no reason they’d ever need to do that”. That’s the thought process. It’s not a threat, it’s humor for them.

  • Some email programs did that, especially when there was special formatting involved. I seem to recall Thunderbird doing it in the past, as well as outlook.

  • You can buy the pattern and knit it in a different color, but yeah, the color red is now tainted, even though this isn’t the same shade.

  • Adding lemon to it solves that.

    Then again, I’ve also heard that drinking a beer a day prevents kidney stones. (Or was it gall stones?)

    And seriously, sugar in tea? :(

  • It still hallucinates MSSQL functions, so I wouldn’t assume it will be great at .Net

  • Yup. But both are more difficult to use in practice, and I’ve been on enough calls where the person shares their entire 40” ultra-wide, to encourage it. I run with three monitors, and replacing any of them is trivial. The biggest problem is the KVM, and that’s ~$200.

  • Easier to move windows around using the windows+arrow keys this way. Easier to share screen this way. Easier to switch context this way.

  • The question is for companies like Ubisoft and EA which usually design games for what PCs are going to be when a game comes out. And since the games industry was bigger than the movies industry before it collapsed due to Covid, what’s that going to do to the economy?

  • I saw this use-case and was immediately interested. This hangs near my front door so I know what’s coming. This particular one has some limitations, but I think the low-res nature of this class forces some nice design decisions.

  • If you can see it’s a salesperson you can ignore them but answer if it’s the mailman/UPS. Get notified that a package was dropped off… or that shortly thereafter some rando walks up to said package.

    Think of it as a door-peephole-at-range.

  • Those band names are inspired.

  • It’s effing hard. Doubled the numbers on one community after a year. Both of us are a bit depressed by that.

  • There are hundreds of us. Maybe thousands!

  • The next Bandcamp Friday is Feb 6 (Bandcamp foregoes their cut).

  • Zenni. Have your doc write a scrip for standalone monitor glasses and have them fill that. (Had bad luck with Zenni doing progressives, but a simple reader prescription? $20)

  • All subscriptions are for the lifetime of the product, aren’t they? It’s like Plex Pass; pay monthly/yearly or buy the lifetime and hope they don’t bankrupt out. But if you like a product like that, there’s only a few options, and it seems like they’re trying to stay afloat and still make a relatively open product.

    And there’s always the free tier for personal use, which seems to have been glossed over. (was thinking of a different product with tail in its name

  • That’s for lifetime. Or you could pay five bucks a month for it. It’s been quite impressive, as a person who just uses the service. Tried it on the free tier liked it enough to start ponying up.
