   I ran into the exact same issues as the author of this post the other day. I have a static site built on Hugo that I (amateurishly) set up a year or so ago, and would like it to have better support for photos & galleries, but lack the t

   On mobile, so I can’t properly view/appreciate the detail-shots, but this is exactly the kind of post I’ve been waiting to see written covering the Quest Pro. I tried the Quest 2 last year mostly out of curiosity for the use cases th

   Man, I hope Pinboard stays up awhile longer. Genuinely one of my favorite simple, reliable internet tools. I don't need new features, I just need it to continue to exist.

   I'd wish you the best of luck, but at this point investing into a hackintosh setup seems a bit like booking a ticket on a sinking ship -- what with support for Intel-Macs ending in the coming years. I definitely understand prioritizing

   That was my takeaway as well. The "hustle-mindset" of turning every interest, passion, and hobby into some sort of side-gig is so pervasive currently that the existence of the word that sums up essentially the opposite mentality s

   Absolutely! The nascent state of ARM outside of iOS, Android, and now MacOS is definitely a roadblock for bringing it to projects from smaller companies like you folks. In my eyes (uneducated, consumer-level perspective) X86 is a huge que

   I came away feeling similarly. Their dedication to developing a true VR computer and focusing on specs that really matter for that (PPD and raw processing grunt) are commendable, but seeing them champion the idea of strapping an X86 compute

    I recently pared back my own layout to something similar, and it's been surprisingly comfortable. I had learned to type on a split board for the first time a few months ago, and going from a more "full" split layout to someth

    Looks like quite a neat product with so much tech packed into a desk-surface (wireless charging, integrated display, etc) but I think unless my job called for that much glance-able information I'd just end up getting more distracted by

    Chucking in another hearty "I'm interested!" I currently use several modern laptops in tandem with an Onyx Boox tablet, but would love to offload even more of my use cases that make sense to e-ink. Followed the Twitter accoun

    I’ve really enjoyed using Marginalia search over the last few months whenever I’m looking for honest-to-goodness “small-web” content. It’s always a breath of fresh air, provided I don’t look too niche. I took the opportunity to pitch in a

    Came here to add another voice to the discourse that an iPad is most definitely not a "light-emitting eReader" in popular vernacular. That term calls to mind recent e-ink devices with frontlights, which are often used in place of

    It's incredible to me to that while this, a slightly older DSLR, and a classic SLR film camera all have similar silhouettes and ergonomics you can watch the digital technology replace the insides over the last 25 years. It's a sta

    This website, the app's visual design, and that old plastic-chromed iPhone all harken back to a simpler time when there were funny one-off apps just for the hell of it. The time of $1.99 quantum splitters, $0.99 iBeer, and $1.99 Lights

    Not to be overly pedantic, but Apple didn't release any quad-core MacBook Airs in 2015.(see https://support.apple.com/kb/sp714?locale=en_US ) Intel didn't even have quad-core ULV CPUs available until late 2017

    This sounds similar to some of my workflow when using Windows. PowerToys & fancyzones are really neat in that they let you pre-define specific "Snap zones" that you can then shift+drag windows on top of to resize them. I tried

    I've been shocked how consistently this improves the quality of search results. Searching something like "get new cats to adjust to one another" on Google returns nothing but list-icle, SEO-laden crap with incredibly low info
