Also shout out to Keynote which is the best presentation software. PowerPoint is so clunky in comparison. Nice features like making image backgrounds transparent are huge wins. Pages is also pretty nice. Its definitely enough for home usage

You'll want some kind of shotgun mic. The rode videomic2 is a good budget option. It has a standard 3/8" thread you can use with a desk boom.

I think the difficulty of media programming is overstated. It’s UX that kills the free alternatives. In the photo space Gimp, dark table, and rawtherapee often have more features than their commercial counterparts. For instance content awar

Plex has a configurable bit rate limit on the server side for streaming. The default is too low for a lot of 4k media. Just set it to something stupid high.

This basically describes Tesla only. Drive a different brand and you get a very similar experience to a gas powered car. Unfortunately a terrible track record on privacy is par for the course in all vehicles in 2025.

More current needs thicker wires. The average US outlet is wired for 120v15amp. 20 amp circuits are somewhat common, though 20amp receptacles are not. Certainly not enough for commodity appliances to rely on. Going to more than 20amp requir

Optics were not a solved problem in the 30s they wouldn’t be until the 80s at least for camera lenses. 30s camera lenses were optimized for black and white and very poorly corrected for chromatic aberrations. Well corrected color lenses wo

Ill plug the "Design of Everyday Things" by Don Norman in case anyone in the thread hasn't read it. Its the classic text on design. You will never think about doors the same again.

Because the injection is basically the only sustained weight loss mechanism that works on the population level. If a fast works for you knock yourself out. But fasts also come with risks like dehydration and malnourshiment.

To add on to the siblings one of the major motivating use cases for rust is to interact with another GC, originally the JS runtime GC for the servo browser. An on-by-default one would interfere with that usecase heavily. What I could see an
