It shouldn't immediately request mic/camera/screen access on the landing page. That's a complete put off for me.

The old Dell Latitude D models had 16:10 displays (albeit at 1280x800 pixels) so for Dell they are bringing it back . 16:9 is just too shallow to do any meaningful work on.

Searching EnChroma Glasses (as referenced in the article), led me to this Colour Blindness Test: https://enchroma.com/pages/color-blindness-test As expected, I am not colour blind, but if you are not sure, give it a go

With $2B in your bank account, do you really care if that's the end result ? ;)

I am 100% the same. I can read fluently, and at a good speed, but I cannot write legibly to save myself. I have such poor fine control with a pen/pencil that I have to hold it in a death-grip and tense my hand and arm muscles to contro

I think there's FAA laws etc, that state that commercial flights must have a pilot and a co-pilot.

I recently stumbled over this list of old defunct Search Engines... http://www.jaruzel.com/textfiles/Old%20Web%20Info/Internet%2... It's sad that there's no real competition in online search anymore.

Is this documented properly somewhere, so that I can give it a go? I've tried and failed with LFS so many times, I can't count - I tend to just run out of time, and by the time i go back to it, I've totally lost where in the

I like having a floating YouTube video on my desktop while I work so much that I knocked up this simple solution a few years ago: http://www.jaruzel.com/apps/youtube/ (Select 'View (New Window)') It suit

Which isn't 100% perfect - I had it partially fail on several of the sites I visit leaving me with no way to view the sites, so disabled it.

Ok. A serious question here: Can some HN Jews, enlighten me (a 100%-proof agnostic) on what they actually do on Shabbat? Are you allowed to use the internet? If something in your house breaks, are you not allowed to fix it? Do you just sit

I wondered the same thing. Surely a useful API is for data that changes, and the recipient doesn't want to manage the content themselves? An API for searching static data seems only useful as a learning exercise.

I'm going to be wonderfully pedantic here, in full HN tradition: What you have here sir, is a Wind Turbine. A 'Windmill' mills grain as part of the rotation. :D

On-prem Skype for Business lets you do this. But tbh any of the gamer orientated voice-comms platforms would work if you don't have that sort of thing as part of your work platform.

The source code of each page contains a small little easter egg comment at the top, btw.

And if you were falsely arrested, and had the footage out there without your consent, you'd be happy for that too? It's a double edged sword I think.

Make it yours . Don't copy others, in style or content. Be passionate about it. If you left one thing behind on this earth make it your website. It's your digital personality. Fill it full of fun stuff that gives you joy. Don&#x2

Counter balance: I have also been WFH for the past several years. I enjoy it and prefer it to working in an office. The thing is, WFH is not for everyone. Some people will thrive in it, and some will not, and that's OK. Don't tr

A few of the big manufacturers now seem to be gravitating to 16:10 - Dell used to be big on it a few generations ago.

I hadn't looked in a while - it's nice to see 1920x1080 finally gaining popular traction - I guess those bargain-bin laptops are slowly getting upgraded!

She says early in the copy text that she was in Antarctica in 2005. To me the article read like she was recounting her experiences and her return to civilisation as a mechanism to explore how others will come out of Covid lockdown, therefor

I've been playing with writing various shell (explorer.exe as the desktop) replacements, on and off, over the years. It's still definitely doable on Windows 10, but a little bit harder. For example, enumerating open windows is lit
