When I researched on the best/popular TOTP apps some years ago, I found Authy being highly recommended. When I tried it, I discovered that it first needs a phone number that it verifies through an SMS code. I promptly removed it and sw

Is it me (with Firefox Focus) or are the styles on this page set to have the section titles in smaller fonts than the actual section text/paragraphs? @bitfield author & submitter: please take a look at this. I found it difficult to

For others wondering what Bevy [1] is, it’s a “data driven game engine built with Rust.” To the author (who shared this here): please include a link to Bevy in the first few lines of the post. I know what Rust is, but didn’t know what Bevy

Ever since the new preferences dialog was introduced in Firefox, the UX has been quite slow. What was previously achievable through a few keystrokes now requires several. For your use case, you could use the Cookie Auto Delete extension and

I didn’t sign up to HN just to write this comment. Also, HN doesn’t require providing an email address to create an account, unlike this app. I like my local-only preferences.

I skimmed through the article quickly, and didn’t see any mention of decentralized platforms like Mastadon or Matrix. Instead, there was a recommendation for Signal, which is one more centralized platform that also needs a phone number.

There are editors that allow preserving the line endings (be they LF, CRLF or CR) from the source file. That could be a solution since you already seem to have control over your environments.

If this, and other decisions by Apple for China makes you upset or angry, do email the CEO Tim Cook (his email address is easily found online) and let him know your displeasure and that you’re not going to buy things from the company as m

Edit: Tried it again on iOS and there’s no way to proceed after the initial questions without creating an account. Deleted it again.

I tried that app a very long time ago, and then in an update they forced users to create an online account with no local use option. I promptly removed it since I’m averse to creating online accounts when I see no good reason to do it.

Is there any way to do this on a dual boot system without having to erase everything and reinstalling both the OSes?

I didn’t downvote, but I checked it out and see that it’s at version 0.10 and the last update was more than two years ago. The combination of these two don’t inspire much confidence for me. There’s a psychological barrier for pre 1.0 releas

The add-on page for this says it was last updated in June 2019. Just wanted to check if it's still compatible and has no issues with all the changes in Firefox for more than a year now.

There's this sorta humorous saying that goes around. Paraphrasing it here: "We always have about two minutes to live, but breathing resets the clock."

You could post a list of topics that are frequently posted on HN and mark each topic as positively commented on or negatively commented on. Maybe add a trending graph over time too. Edit: I’m not being snarky. Such a list or view could be u

Cyber warfare is probably a more likely and a bigger threat than missiles. Attacking core infrastructure (like power grids, for example) connected to a network would bring things to a crawl or to a stop.

My point is that the description on the App Store says nothing about a trial or what's in the pro features. Please read the App Store description as if you're a potential user and see if you can understand what the in-app purchase

Apple's penchant for silence or not responding shows in bug reports too. Most of the time there are no responses or changes in the status to any issues filed. Apple uses an internal tracking system for itself and an external system for

The iOS app has an in-app purchase for pro features for $4.99 at this time, but the app description doesn’t have a single word about the “pro features” or what the free version offers. I have to wonder if this app has been reviewed by anyon

Seems like someone from DigitalOcean is reading and responding to comments here. I won’t touch or recommend DigitalOcean to anyone unless it employs some humans to address and respond to queries instead of sending the same automated replies
