They are a scourge, they never rate-limit themselves, there are a hundred of them, and a significant number don’t respect robots.txt. Many of them also end up our meta:no-index,no-follow search pages leading to cost overruns on our Algolia

First time I'm reading a LTT Labs article and I really liked the format. The left hand outline (which is like a polished version of Wikipedia's) was very nice. No cookie popups, only a simple Plausible tracker in the logs. RSS Fee

Yet it did not feel very cheap to me. The price of the pump had increased from 4800 only a year earlier due to the war in Ukraine. There were a number of steps I had to go through. First I had to file for permission at the County Office, wh

Only one mention of Aperture, suppose I can be the second one to also lament the loss. Lightroom never grew on me and I still miss the UI and workflow of Aperture. Might give this a try. I just keep on holding back because I do not want to

I think Mac OS window handling has become worse over the past years. But I don’t care for MS Windows style either (in fact I dislike it more). Do you happen to have a mode which more closely resembles the classic spatial Finder of yesteryea

There are some modern heat pumps which can put heat energy back into the hole during the warmer season when the pump acts as a (cooler). For my own Daikin pump this would be possible if I had a different flooring than wood. "Unfortunat
