Web push notifications do need and use Apple, Google… between the web app and you.

It’s in the experimental branch - https://github.com/uidotdev/usehooks/blob/d7483140ee803826c3...

“ Unfortunately, mobile operating systems would mistakenly report you as having the full 512GB”

What is this weird excuse, as if it’s some kind of mobile technical limitation that the device has to lie about available space?

There's not much context here-

Is this an EOL ubuntu release? In which case this is expected (arguable whether it's good practise or not).

If not, y'know, bugs are also a thing that happens.

Let's see how it plays out.

This feels like somewhere that GPT could actually prove helpful- I don't love GitHub CoPilot all that much, but a linter that could warn and suggest where comments aren't matching the code could be helpful to keep 'comment rot' at bay

It’s a VoIP app, network traffic is likely.

Oops, I guess the new version isn’t out yet..

Have to say, the name had me mightily confused with the Temporal API Proposal https://tc39.es/proposal-temporal/docs/

As pointed out here, the huge assumption in this article is is:

If someone installs malware on here - just insert a usb stick or use the recovery mode - then tada we have the next generation of atm skimming.

Which is just not how these payment devices work- they are entirely separate, they are sent a request to make a transaction, that transaction (and also likely the transaction request itself) occur entirely in a secure connection between someone like Verifone, and the device itself.

The PC has has no way to get those card details, only request a transaction and confirm a payment status as successful or failed.

So, i was confused about this- the snippet that comes back, is it direct from another site or is it generated from the results?

I searched for "how to set up preact with vite", and I got a passage that sounded incredibly condescending, and half-way through it ignored the p in preact and started talking about react instead- but I was impressed that I couldn't work out if it was directly lifted from a stackoverflow reply, or it was generated in the style of one.

Australia does have other examples of these systems though, like poli (https://www.polipayments.com/) which is commonly used by airlines to accept and prove direct deposit payments

I’ve never had an issue with their MacOS app, what do you mean by “only.. legitimately support windows”?
