Fun fact: dmenu was also ported to macOS. Unfortunately it doesn’t work very well yet but still, it’s pretty cool!

It worked for me. Heres what I did. 1. Login and go to the Youtube homepage 2. Scroll down and click "Not Interested" on every video you don't want recommended anymore. 3. Keep scrolling until you hit the bottom (there _is_ a

I used YouTube's "Not Interested" button to filter out political content at the end of 2020 so I haven't noticed that. But I have noticed over the last week, more 'contrarian' content. I watched a few videos on

I have a similar machine (1tb SSD instead) and I'm also getting about 6hrs although I run my machine on max brightness. If I turn it down to half brightness I might be able to break 8hrs but I have no idea how people are getting ridicu

FWIW, I’ve been using the Orion beta on my Mac and it’s great. It’s a WebKit based browser with a built in ad blocker and tree style tabs and can run most Firefox and chrome extensions while having lower resource usage and better battery li

Are you an Apple employee or are you basing this on the rumor mill?

Have you not noticed the rabid Linux fan base on HN? It seems like every discussion about Macs or macOS has at least 2-3 comments about how someone had used macOS for years, then got sick of apples (intel) hardware or lack of software custo

I generally agree, but I think you might underestimate how many customers _globally_ are very price sensitive. I have relatives overseas and a price difference of ~$40 is pretty sizable over there. Apple devices are seen as quite a luxury t

Not OP, but I think that the consumer market for laptops is basically Chromebooks and iPads for anything < ~$700 and a MacBook for anything over. I would imagine that the number of high performance "gaming" laptops sold in the

Well, I was going to spend this money on upgrading my laptop, but I guess I'll just invest in a nuclear power plant instead... /s

I’ve always wanted to run a small pi box as a router with pfsense. Right now my only other option for a small all in one, low power pfsense box is maybe an Intel NUC?

I suppose it depends on your media habits. If you want a large media library then it's absolutely worth it. I started by manually downloading and configuring media, but after a certain point it just became easier to let the computer ha

I have a real split opinion on Unraid. On the one hand, It's probably one of the most versatile pieces of software that I've ever used. I use it in "production" at home and its filling half a dozen use cases for me. The

This depends a lot on your workflow. I really like some of the features offered by yabai that depend on disabling SIP and installing the Scripting Addition. You can totally use Yabai without this though. The biggest issue I have is that by

Personally I’ve tried a bunch of these vim-browser extensions and I think SurfingKeys has the best feature set thus far.

I believe Alfred can also replicate this feature with the Menu Bar Search plugin.

I think iTerm has a similar feature where you can configure the keyboard shortcuts to use normal system style text selection shortcuts.

For what it’s worth, I’ve been using yabai on macOS for a while now and I’ve quite enjoyed it. It feels a lot more like configuring a Linux twm then amethyst. I did find amethyst to be more stable, Yabai still has some annoying bugs on appl

I never understood why people needed keys like home and end until I had to switch from MacOS to Windows for work. Turns out, MacOS has some (IMO) more sensible key bindings for those operations involving either the Cmd or Opt key + the arra

Current rumors are that the upcoming Mac Pro will support add-in ram sticks and pcie cards so that form factor is not necessarily obsolete yet. I will find it disappointing though if the new Mac Pro doesn't have an option for a lower

Same here. I interviewed for Apple back in November. The interview went really, really well. And yet, no response. I assumed that they might be off for winter break so I plan on giving them an extra week or so to get caught up on work and

When my first AI coworker will read the on-boarding docs and start solving Jira issues I will have no doubt we have done it. That simple. It’s not exactly what you’re after, but we’re already pretty close!: https://mobile.twitter
