   You just reminded me, the other day I learned that Bill Gates, a man who could presumably have any watch in the world he wanted, has (or had recently) a $50 quartz diver made by Casio on his wrist. It’s actually a pretty nice-looking watch,

   I’m unsure of HNs stance on piracy so I’m hesitant to post any specifics. For a single account, key words to search for are “plex shares” or “emby shares” and if you want to run your own server instance to be able to invite others and chang

   I’ve been using little snitch for a decade+ and as far as I remember it was the only time, and was probably a mistake by Apple. From your link: > Objective Development, the developers of Little Snitch, also writes about the discovery - a

   I have seen the modern version of piracy and there is no way to compete with it. Full polished web-apps to browse and select titles to download, automatically, which appear almost instantly in your plex/emby/jellyfin server, which

   I switched from rooted Android to an iPhone that has the checkm8 bootrom exploit and use a tool called checkra1n[0] to 'jailbreak' it. It's been really nice, super stable (i.e. months between restarts) and unlocks so many lit

    There are third-party apps available that handle FLAC just fine. I use a paid app called Neutron Music Player mainly because it has an SMB client to connect to a NAS with my FLAC collection, but you can also use its built-in server to trans

    There is a systemwide ad-blocker available called MYbloXX[0] that I've been using on a jb iPhone, but you can also use it on a stock iOS device with the caveat that you have to do a device restore to be able to apply the configuration.

    I've been using the more bare-bones KeepingYouAwake[0] just because I came across Caffeine first and this was suggested as the continuation of that simple utility. The icon makes it obvious whether it is enabled or disabled Edit: I see
