"... in true iFixit fashion, we made sure you can see the tech that will power your stuff!" ...wouldn't 'true iFixit fashion' include a teardown and replacement parts? Is there some part of the UL spec that says you

wow great article and even in the article and comments no mention of PAR1789! It's the IEEE standard for limiting flicker in bulbs! The Department of Energy has a great presentation on this, https://www.energy.gov/eere&

ooh, I'm not even having a kid but this is fun to play around with! One feature that would be nice to see: adding names. I always thought it would be fun to name a kid Pickle but it's not in your list :) thanks for making this!

love https://xn--n3h.net/ though AFAIK https://unicodesnowmanforyou.com/ predates it

Agreed, despite the fascinating topic I gave up skimming the article halfway through due to low signal:noise

In my mind the best social network would limit people to 1 post per week (or month?). Then no one is creating more noise than anyone else, you get to what's really important, and you can actually catch up with everyone.

Fair, yeah I considered that though it doesn’t seem they have updated it

Yeah it's my video. I really botched the release of it. I only had it shared with friends via Google Photos for a while and then only later uploaded a lower-res copy to Vimeo. Oh well :p

after reading https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26531119 I searched the page for Remarkable. It could be the Linux tablet of our collective dreams if enough developers notice it...

This is why I still use a 480i CRT from the early 1980s. Shelves of VHS haven't broke and don't need fixing!

The article fails to mention the reasons I love VHS: it’s so resilient: the gentle degradation (instead of brittle digital media), doesn't require the internet, doesn’t have distracting notifications/social integrations built in.

yeah I've noticed in Firefox Wiki.js appears to blank in between each page (doesn't happen for me in other browsers). This is very disruptive and has prevented me from further interest in the platform, sadly.

much respect for keeping a PowerBook in use! I keep my 12" PowerBook around for similar uses: Music (iTunes), email (Mail), writing (TextEdit), development (also TextEdit haha). Amazingly TenFourFox (Firefox fork) is still being mainta

this is why I still use old iphones. They're slow and I have javascript turned off so the web is WAAY less addictive.

This reminds me again of why I am obsessed with A Pattern Language[0]. Building close together, setting maximum building height, quiet backs, etc. This may be a naive opinion but I think if development regulators in cities followed many of

I wonder, it's not quite clear whether Fairphone 2 parts are interchangeable with Fairphone 3, anyone know? I really appreciate that it doesn't come with a charger but does come with a screwdriver. Their priorities are in the righ

looks like a great app but a little disappointing it requires MacOs 10.14. There are a non-insignificant number of people still using older machines.
