Be careful, that sounds almost like a dare...

Is this is the snap version of tb? If so it has restricted file access.

Maybe try the .deb version? (maybe need to back up your data in ~/snap/thunderbird/

Sure on first point.

However Zuck is directly addressing Apple hostility regarding Airpods, irrespective of how you feel about him/meta.

Not parent.

I believe (I don't own their new M-5) their Macbook Pro are very well regarded in terms of trackpad, battery and screen as one (if not the) best out there.

In regards to Apple hostility. There's obviously the whole app store shenanigans where devs often feel that they have arbitrary rules. DHH has talked about it as has Tim Sweeney.

I listened to Mark Zuck on Rogan about his experience with Apple connecting his Ray Bands to the AirPods. [0]

In that interview, he suggests they won't help with the integration (for stupid reasons) and that he expects that'll come out with a competing product.

I think being a dev and working with the Apple eco (outside of 'normal') is a pita. Yes it's subjective. I'm hesitant to even purchase Apple's excellent hardware for this reason.

This comment irked me. Yes others do it.

I've noticed more and more that people lie to me and I call them out immediately (aggressively, as if they've just spat in my face) and they just don't care.

Does "my word is my bond" not have meaning any more?

I respect the work/hack involved.

However why support a company (by buying airpods) that is this hostile. i.e. I wouldn't be surprised to see a patch to stop this.

ThePrimeagen just talked about it on his podcast:

"I Think They Are Lying To You": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfYsSFY4l18

You assume you can be neurodivergent and have to be ADHD as well.

I don't believe I have ADHD, but I've come to realize my brain is wired 'differently'.

Not sure if this really matters that much.

If one don't pay, the algorithm (I believe?) ranks your comment at the bottom of the blue check marks and it's rare to get any sort of engagement.

I expect the same algorithm ranking with new posts.

I read but rarely engage as what's the point.

A would be intruder did bang on my door at 3am (I guess to test if anyone was in) and I looked pretty pissed off and menacing when I opened the door (ex prop forward rugby player) and they ran off. Maybe not the smartest move on my part.

Apparently they immediately decided to break into my neighbours a few doors down while people were sleeping.

Maybe I've seen too many horror movies, but aren't you concerned about not hearing an intruder and being able to respond? Maybe I'm paranoid. :)

Speed-Quality-Price.

Let's pick: Speed-Quality

Errrh... Let's forget about: Price

without either proof of identity or attestation through a web of trust.

Let's put aside the idea whether it will be the end of all privacy as we know it (I'm not sure if I personally think it's a good idea), but isn't Sam Altman's World eye ID thing supposed to do that? (https://world.org).

How does it work (like OpenId)? Do I have an orb on my desk, or some sort of phone app? I still want to use my desktop to login to HN.

Would it stop this sort of "get human id", past it into .env, so agents can use it?

I'm probably being dim here, but can you elaborate a bit more. Where's the rest of the non-ad revenue coming from?

If anyone is reading this after my comment, please try firefox 150.0. It seems to have resolved it for me.

Regarding bleeding risks.

Is this due to the stomach being empty? Does taking it at the end of a large meal better?

I was a big fan of popos (for a long time) and upgraded to the latest rust based one. However my firefox stopped working (no response for toolbar menu items and buttons).

The work around is to reset your display. After having to do this 5+ times a day (for months), I said sod it and went to ubuntu 22. Sad.

note: failed only my intel nuc, but not on thinkpad x1 carbon.

Would you mind elaborating on the problems you have with the Kobo? I'm thinking of getting one of these once my kindle dies.

It is a major pita dealing with the SES team. I originally wanted to send email from my web app (simply notification flow. i.e. you have a new request from user-123) and it is (IMHO) impossible to get past them. They won't tell you any reasons why. (Because they don't want devs gaming the system).

Nothing I could do could convince them that I wasn't trying to do 'bad' stuff. Just gave up and decided not to use any AWS tech.

Just used GMail api to send email.

on linux:

alias pbcopy='xclip -selection clipboard'

alias pbpaste='xclip -selection clipboard -o'

React is the worst thing to happen to the Javascript ecosystem. The idea is good, but the execution is just piss poor. I mean look at Vue and Svelte, they managed to do it right.

As a previously big React dev I agree 100%. If anyone feels this way please spend some time on doing Sveltekit project (e.g. rewrite a personal React project).

It's a breath of fresh air.

Also in the US (probably due to lack of training and the customer too embarrassed to complaining) tend not to fill it the brim (and so not even 16''). I've seen 2-3 inch heads and asked them to top it up. They look at me as if I've just insulted George Washington.

First thing I always look for is screenshots.

I still struggle with the fact that I was (or delusional) an effective C programmer "back in the day" (before google etc) and all we had was "man" to look up std/x11 system calls.

Now I am dismayed with juniors who can't even be bothered to use google (or llms) to look up stuff on their first hiccup.

Wouldn't tree-shaking take care of this? i.e. If I only use 'Button' (from the UI library), nothing else should be included in the (production) bundle.
