Came here to post this. At this point I just redirect to teddit on my desktop. The only regret is that I can’t automatically reflect websites on ios safari, but it doesn’t take me long to manually tap the address bar and replace “reddit.co

Some websites like Quora would go so far as to just lock me completely out with a blank page that simply says "Please enable Javascript and refresh the page to continue" I have trouble believing that they absolutely /need

I had this very same issue yesterday. I needed one particular component now, not “x days from now, Online.” I knew it was something that radio shack would have had, but I had to drive an hour and a half to the closest microcenter.

I wouldn't be surprised if sleep is an aspect of a nervous system in general. Last year an article came out about how even artificial neural networks benefited from sleep. Perhaps it's the nature of the beast. https://

At this point, I use telegram for essentially everything, not just email either. I found this HN thread through the Hacker News telegram feed[0]. I don't check reddit, or have other RSS feeds anymore, I just subscribe to the equivale

I was excited for a moment, when I saw that someone was working on a new browser, then I admit that I felt a bit disappointed to read this. I think we need more rendering engines out there, or at least wider distribution of the current ones
