I drive a 2025 Kia Ceed and the all the infotainment does is get in my way. Id pay to have it removed. Carplay & Siri helps me stay focused on driving in a safe way.

Wouldn’t a purpose built Esp32 with microphones aimed at the sky do a better job? It would be always on, better directional targeting.
Love the localhost easteregg!
Mouseless website totally forgets to sell the product. Had to dig into the docs to understand how its used, what is offers.
Looking forward to the follow up: How to Quickly Cool Down Your MacBook
Youre not alone with the problem: if device lost -> difficult to reach family
No matter what solution you choose you will need to remember something. I have two family members who always answer, so their phone numbers are the only two I know. By dialing them manually now and then I make sure my memory is working.
In the age of AI/voice generators I’ve also told them how I will identify myself. So if being mugged in Kiwiland, and they get a call where I ask them to transfer money they can do so knowing it would only be me making that request as I told them the secret phrase: ”yes, it was me who tipped over the Christmas tree”. Ofcourse not that, but something none of the inner family will ever forget.
OT: this is the first time Ive encountered a branching article. Awesome. The ability has been there for decades, but never used. Guess going from print to digital is not only a change of tools but a mindset.
Capslock <-> Backspace is my #1 keyboard config. Esc is not bad either. BUT WHY DO I NEED A LARGE KEY FOR SHOUTING?
So with 100k cameras crime is down how much?
Its owned by Microsoft. They sell RAM.
Robert: youre website is among the most visually attractive ones Ive seen.
US government is a farce. How can they have a system that completely halts every now and then just because the ones in charge can’t agree? If this is such a big issue, and it’s repeating: plan ahead.
Anyone else open for internet v2? Like a completely new system, with everything that we enjoyed with the first one around the millenia: buggy webpages, slow downloads, crappy browsers, having to download plugins…
Lets do it again!
Page seems to be blocked from EU.
The issue is that the letter that pops may be replaced, if it later changes its mind. Eg if you hit U, get a U popup, and sofly release while moving into the target area for J. You get a J.
For me it’s dealbreaker that it’s available via homebrew.
Not a stance or anything, but when I get a new Mac I use homebrew bundle If it’s not in my brewfile from old Mac, theres a high probability I won’t get it installed.
Lightshot, if youre using it you should remove it and then google why.
I cant use mice without https://linearmouse.app to adjust acceleration. (0$)
They did that in 2007. Some countries banned it as early as 1983. Remind me, what year is it now?
My country quit using our (then) lowest denomination coin 32 years ago. Also worth 1/100 of a USD.
Apple obeys the law. Policians set the law. You vote for politicians.
So nu, it makes no sense to blame Apple here.
Was thinking of a way to recreate MTV for my daugther, for the same reason - to explore and discover outside the algo bubble on social media.
Im interested to see if you encounter the same with a different phone. Most probably a software issue, but are we sure it isnt something defective with your phone?
That’s it. Im going to get my family to delete their x accounts.
I keep jumping between Preview and Skim. Preview for simple tasks and editing, Skim for advanced reading (think huge pdfs, where I want to see two parts of the file at the same time).
I need to make one of my own, when Im done fixing up an old bike for my fish.
Just love https://healthchecks.io I set it up on all my boxes with these two scripts: win https://github.com/reboot81/healthchecks_service_ps/ macos https://github.com/reboot81/hc_check_maker_macos linux https://healthchecks.io/docs/bash/
Works great from iPhone to iPhone.
Someone please make sure King Trump get the new model, ok?
The sadest part is that we the consumers pay for having things constantly popping up infront of our eyes. There should be a ”NoAds”-label on products that have chosen to not levy the ad-tax on us consumers.
