   I'm so glad that e-bikes are assist limited to 25km/h in Croatia.

   I didn't like Tenet at all. Under the skin and edge of tomorrow were pre-Interstellar.

   The last SF or fantasy movie I've liked was, I believe, Interstellar. Everything since has either been a superhero movie, Star Wars (please make it stop), or a massive flop. Actually, Bumblebee was pretty entertaining now that I rememb

   And let's not forget the obligatory scenes where you have the protagonist(s) beating up and killing hundreds of generic robot/alien/monster goons. Because you can't have graphic mass murder in a PG13 movie. Hell, the Put

   It's still React, and it's still too slow. The only difference is where the render is committed to (DOM vs Native UI) Having a declarative rendering logic, a rendering runtime, the VDOM, diffing, re-rendering, update scheduling an

   No please. Trying to read up on FFmpeg issues or join a conversation is a nightmare.

   Was watching the promo video. It's hilarious that they couldn't get a native English speaker, or at least someone who is fluent in it. Reminds me of those cheap Chinese bluetooth speakers when they say "Blutuut konyektid&quot

    Finally some news. They've been talking about the solid state battery for a few years now.

    Apple maps are horrible in Croatia and Slovenia. Routing is bad, and the actual layers with info are a barren wasteland. Apple maps are basically only a thing in the US, specifically in NY/SF and that's about it.

    I'm gonna voice a rather unpopular opinion. The only thing crypto is good for: - earning money by spinning up GPU fans - playing the crypto stock market - money laundering - buying weapons - buying drugs - buying humans I'm glad t

    Press forging isn't the issue. Albion armoury uses press cutting + CNC milling for their swords but they are leaps and bounds better than these 500€ slabs that are barely better than mall ninja wallhangers.

    To the untrained eye, perhaps. Albion and Christian Fletcher are as far off from the Toledo ones as a Yugo or a Reliant Robin is from a Ferrari.

    https://marianozamorano.com/en/6-swords I'm going to be blunt here: Apart from some rapier models, these look like garbage. These are slabs of iron in the shape of what vaguely looks like a sword. Compare these to

    Here's a great explanation using a model: https://youtu.be/MsvVD0FaF28 The amazing thing about them is that they have no parts that need friction to work like belts, CVT axles or even the clutch. Nor do they have any m

    I don't see how wealth has much to do with it. It's a question of citizenship and taxes. The other extreme is what we currently have in Croatia: A vast group of people who don't live here have citizenship and they express the

    Hopefully an npm alternative will come out, because npm and the entire node_modules & package.json resolution strategy is a joke.

    This comment here is what I come to HN for. I think that OS X was the first OS that did hardware compositing. How come that WindowServer consumes so much CPU instead of GPU?

    Doubt it'd cost any more than a 13" MBP or a MBA. So probably around the 1000€ mark. All those things still stand, but I'd love to see Apple silicon on non-Apple hardware. It's a quantum leap over anything else on the ma

    Imagine if Apple made the Steam Deck with the M-series processors. Would probably have more power with 2x the battery life and 200g less weight. But you'd be stuck playing p2w RTS games and gachas.

    Buying a Windows laptop is a horrible decision. I always recommend people to buy either a Windows desktop or a Mac laptop. Yet everyone wants a "gaming laptop" for some reason. Possibly the worst option you could buy.

    Ahem, underperforming indie games. Most indie games can barely handle 30fps at 720p, which is pretty telling about Unity which probably runs more than 90% of them. And there are also underperforming first-party games. BOTW had drops to 15 f

    1) It takes me 15 minutes just go get warmed up. The first 15 minutes are a nightmare. 2) It's never 10 minutes. The nearest place I can run which isn't on the sidewalk is a 10 minute bike ride away. Add to that the time it takes
