You can just get a free kit mailed to you from someone if you pay the shipping cost.

The domain name is the most confusing part! "This is thunderbolt.io. No, not the I/O device, the AI client"...

You're saying the opposite of what the person you think you're agreeing with is.

There are lots of alternatives. What makes them all unacceptable?

Is there a reason to use Gonic instead of Navidrome?

Not really. Both are great! I moved to Gonic because it exposed full file paths which Navidrome didn't at the time, but it has since implemented that as well.

Gonic doesn't come with a front end so it's a bit lighter if that's something you care about.

River was really great even before this split, so I'm very excited to see what happens in the space in the future. I switched to Niri while waiting for it to happen, and I'll probably switch back at some point.

If you were an Xmonad user I feel pretty confident in saying River is the Wayland WM for you.

If ads are not effective, why do you think companies keep buying them? Surely they would have realized by now.

When I very briefly worked at a bike shop even some of the pros said they basically learned everything from Park Tool's Youtube videos!

Probably just a typo. He was 63.

They have been more focused on cloud stuff (and now AI) for a long time.

Tell me about your custom browser you're reading HN on!

You could fit the most basic version of a spaced repetition program on the back of a napkin. Why would you want to vibe code yet another program lacking a bunch of useful features though?

AnkiHub people seem kind of slimy in my experience (at least their leader, "The AnKing"). I hope they figure out a good leadership situation, and make stronger commitments to openness.

Anki is in a very solid position to be forked if anything happens, so even if this is bad news I have faith in the larger community.

Not strictly calisthenic, but you can do a lot with bands as well.

Just FYI that should be "Miyazaki and Kon", Satoshi is his first name.

Earthsea was directed by another Miyazaki, namely Hayao's son Goro.

If you actually check out the original 4chan post you can clearly see that it's about the first season. I'm not sure where you got the idea that it should be about the Endless 8, since you even admit yourself that it would make no sense.

It sounds like you don't need or want a music player.

but it's way easier to just hit the light switch

to save you a net amount of... zero effort

This is just not true. I have 7 lights in the room I'm in right now, and I want them to all turn on and off together. This was a huge pain before I had smart lights.

You can group lights like this in Home Assistant.

You can always edit the info on MusicBrainz if it's wrong, so that everyone else also can benefit from your fixes.

I changed the batteries in my Sony WF-1000XM3 earbuds without too much trouble. Unfortunately I don't think you can easily replace the battery in the case, so I still had to charge the case pretty often.

Do you feel like you shouldn't use it because of the author's politics? It's not like he gains anything from you using it. Even if he gained money from it I don't think there's any reason to believe he'd use that money to further those political opinions.

Surely searing meat in butter would burn the butter?

Do you think they should be paying for the videos you watch?

Seems like a cool extension, but how come your website and legal documents are open source, but the actual add-on is not?

Funnily enough I've always heard that referred to as a "coin pocket", but since I live in a country that has barely used cash for the last 10+ years I thought this was very anachronistic and started putting my keys in there.

People (arguably) don't do it because it looks better, but to signal that they are in the know about fashion.

you’re somehow entitled to more of his lifetime dedicated to the features important to you personally.

They never said this, only that developing a product to be used by a lot of people and completely disregarding a (arguably very common) use case is arrogant.

Remembering the Kanji is for learning how to write kanji, which does help with reading as well, but that's not its primary purpose. If you actually do want to be able to write by hand (which I think most people (understandably) don't want to invest the time for), it's well worth the time investment.

it's not something you should spend your entire focus on before you start learning the actual language of Japanese This is also true. You can do both. In fact I think you /should/ do both, learning new vocabulary using the kanji you've learned so far to help motivate you to learn more. It's quite addicting when you can see your progress day-to-day.
