I've been using Swiftfin since I got an Apple TV, and it's... okay. Lacks a lot of sorting/filtering options, gets janky and starts loading movie cards in the wrong place if you scroll too fast, and sometimes stops updating t

Cool tech, but plastering "authentic" all over this kind of generated photography is really disingenuous and just rubs me the wrong way. I get that it's informed by real details from other photos, but that's not what aut

Cooks seem harder to automate, but I'm seeing kiosks replace cashiers more and more lately.

I can't help but think that this is just going to accelerate efforts to automate fast food workers. Then once the technology works well enough to replace expensive labor in California, there'll be very little stopping it from spre

Attention boss: I'm still not coming into the office. If you care that much then fire me and I'll go work somewhere less infantilizing.

What exactly was "missing" before this? I've been perfectly happy with GraphiQL for years and don't immediately see anything particularly desirable that Pathfinder adds.

I've been soft-retired for a while now and don't personally have that social problem, but I've definitely seen it before and have some thoughts and musings on it (which you should trust about as far as you can throw them, but

That's what I would assume too, but one of the slides very specifically claims: > The presence of an arc=pass generally guarantees a better spam score. Confirmed with ProtonMail. Seems to be the case with Gmail and Outlook as well.

The effect that ARC headers have on spam scores is interesting. As someone who runs his own private mail server, I can seemingly improve the deliverability of my emails by just adding a set of useless ARC headers to my own emails?

> This can start with nonspecific symptoms like headache, light sensitivity, and insomnia and develop into neck stiffness and pain Oh good, now I can be worried that every symptom of "getting old" is actually a brain parasite.

I can't even figure out what some of these are asking. Question 5 of the History and Geography section is just "Leonidas, Pausanias, Lysander." Am I supposed to write about what they have in common? Who they each were? When a

Ah, so we don't need to worry about egregiously illegal privacy violations as long as we have nothing to hide. Thanks.

I'd support this and any other stupid change that will further cement the demise of Twitter. Can't see it actually happening though.

What a disaster. Burned any good will they had and now they aren't even going to make any of the money that they (apparently very desperately) wanted. Assuming that the upcoming changes actually roll back the policies that people hated

I can't give you a meaningful comparison between all of those, because I haven't used all of them, but I can say that I've been pretty happy with Restic in the time I've been using it. Do you have any odd requirements th

Any comparisons to Restic? Looks like basically the same thing but with a GUI available. Edit: Found this very ad-hoc "benchmark" from over a year ago claiming that Kopia managed significantly better deduplication than Restic afte

For a while, I had my RGB lightbulbs set up to flash appropriate colors when I would strike a note in Beat Saber. The effect was very neat and rave-y. The lights in the room would automatically dim to black when a song would start, and then

I took it more as an anecdote to show how Google is intentionally using its size and influence to engage in anticompetitive practices by forcing the adtech industry to standardize on technologies that only Google can use effectively. More o
