I can really relate to this post, celebrating my birthday with a party for the first time in 10+ years in 2025, it truly had a massive impact on my mental health and it made me realize I should throw little gatherings much more often. Great

Bob- and apartment-owner here. We have a small kitchen and just don't have the space for a full-sized dishwasher. Bob fits snugly in the cabinet under the sink and runs once a day for a 2-person household. It's perfect for our nee

I found the most easy way to motivate people to switch, is to just remove your WhatsApp profile-picture and set your status to something like "Find me on Signal". The amount of people reaching out via WhatsApp lowered drastically,

Not based on actual research, but my guess is that with Edge, you'll now have Google phone-homing combined with Microsoft phone-homing. Unless Microsoft actively went out of their way to remove calls to Google, there may still be many

As pbarnes_1 said, I'd recommend adding some form of authentication. Perhaps you can instruct the service to send the requester instructions to provide proof that they are the owner of the account.

Reminds me of the Min-browser. It has a similar goal and is also built with Electron. Perhaps there's some useful stuff for you! https://github.com/minbrowser/min

Interesting project! Perhaps you could add a return value depending on whether results were found (using sys.exit or something like that) so it can be integrated in CI-pipelines.

Off topic: That beta is very buggy and you should consider updating to a more recent one.

I'm interested in how this robot "survived" the radiation levels that many previous robots did not [1]. I know little to nothing about radiation hardening, but this seems like an almost impossible task, considering it being e

I've had similar experiences with electronic shops. One thing that's really helped me is legal counsel insurance. It's about €5,- a month for the entire household and if a shop doesn't offer a fair solution, I just give
