Interesting theory, but then why would they include Apple? Among others in the list, they’re almost guaranteed to be of no value and only increase the risk.

So strange that twitter can't automatically filter these. The message format is pretty consistent. Surely they could write something to at least put tweets matching this pattern in a moderation queue.

Seems they’re cashing in. According to one tweet, $7.8m transferred to their address so far.

At first glance what you say seems insensitive but after thinking about it it’s rather endearing. Dying doing what you love, like Steve Irwin.

The advertisers don’t want their content available everywhere. They often do regional promotions they don’t want the rest of the world to have knowledge of.

> You could in theory design a modern UI that resembles the classic UI, but it wouldn't really be "the classic UI". I bet this would look awesome. Especially in high DPI.

I’ve seen applications where they use redundancy with overlapping projections to avoid shadows of people walking in front. The image is still slightly interrupted, but the overlapping projections do a decent job filling it in - if done prop

So it’s a VST patch, for one particular VSTi. Title is wrong.

Any examples of getting one of these plugged into a Pi and having a script listen for SMS events and respond to them?

Copyright protection was my first thought too, similar to how cartographers used to put “bunnies” in their maps to identify copycats. https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Mapmakers-sleight-of-han...

To me, the appeal of e-ink is the fact it completely blends in with your room. There is no glow, no distraction when watching television. It's lit by your room. Also it doesn't feel "wasteful" to have it lit up when no o

Also very overpriced, imo. But it seems like e-ink displays are expensive in general.

I think it's fairly obvious there was a giant blood war between the neanderthal and homo sapiens early on. And a mass extinction of neanderthals. Simply because they were different. If anyone has more information about it, I'd lov

I'm glad this is happening. But I could see how a consumer would be upset with this. Were these rules listed when I purchased the product? Why didn't you limit me if you had intentions of limiting what I can return? Costco is very

Yea I think it is. It’s the second one I’ve seen like this on HN. Expect to see some emails come in shortly if you checked.

Generalizing "programming" is a fools errand at this point. For some, their IDE alone would warrant a pro-spec machine. Some people need to virtualize their development environments. Some people need to virtualize several environm

And how often do you stop your checkout clerk and tell them to stop scanning because you've exceeded N number of dollars? Once you've pulled your cart up to the checkout line, I'm betting you've most likely settled on wh

I was actually watching TV last night and found myself hesitant to switch from Hulu to Netflix because deep in my head I was saying "oh that's the one with the noisy menus".

I’m in Europe on vacation, and while GDPR seems to be a good thing, there is nothing more annoying than a cookie policy pop up for every single site you visit. I know what cookies are. I know how they are used. I don’t need a reminder every

> We're not talking about the episode of Leave it to Beaver where Wally smokes a joint. As a big Leave it to Beaver fan I find this hilarious. And would pay anything to watch this episode if it existed.

A full time staff of 20 would be enough to scan enough content to outpace what any child could ever watch during their entire adolescence.
