Awesome idea! Will try it out. Wish there was a way to enable low power on a per-app basis. Scrolling and reading on low power mode is really annoying.

OpenRA is amazing. Sort of related, recently discovered a great remake of Heroes of Might and Magic II:

You, sir, are a fish. Good luck on the path!

Maybe it's ok to upgrade an o($100) device once after, checks notes, 14 years? Incredible longevity compared to any other device

Original Pixelbook was amazing and my fam still uses it. Wish they just stuck to the lineup and kept iterating vs giving up and trying to rebrand every few years.

Unrelated to the article, the game on the website is very addictive )) Had to get to the top of the leaderboard.

funny how this is actually the default for me having grown up in Ukraine.

probably same for other post-soviet countries too?

Not all heroes wear capes. This is excellent and can't wait to get aluminium mac next to try it – don't think Space Black is a good way to go.

Author's another post on "The Seasons are Wrong" [0] is excellent too and I fully support both approaches.

yeah, this was a one time sync. which source do you prefer for full list? and for thumbnail view, would you like a T shortcut or any other button?

It's a bit tricky to navigate between all the amazing photos NASA Artemis crew captured so I vibe coded (Codex) a simple site with full screen full res view and arrow navigation:

Thanks for highlighting! If anything, based on compare page, it seems that camera setup is closer to previous gen Fold rather than Pixel 9. Barely any changes.

My car is old enough to not have adaptive cruise control and lane centering, but that's all I'd love to have for now. Well executed, it's such a joy on a highway or in traffic.

Jeep and others have it but drive like a bowling ball with guardrails up.

Has anyone here successfully retrofitted Audi a4 with ACC? I hear Cruise started like that, would be awesome to get a kit like that.
