Yes, totally. Although you could use a backup USB cellular modem, plugged directly into the Mac! At some I imagine I'll inherit or acquire a cheap older M1 Macbook Air, which will be perfect! I also have whole home battery backup and s

This is so great, and I've been sharing it with anyone I know that is on Windows or has to suffer Explorer in Windows 11! Thank you for providing a column with Folder Sizes as well! This is so useful, and yet MS still don't provid

Also, I wondered if by complying with British law that they may somehow be breaking laws of another country? Hypothetically, if Apple just provide a back door to the data they have on US Senators for instance, then providing that informatio

“Can we take a moment to appreciate the name? Apple Intelligence. AI. That’s some S-tier semantic appropriation. On the level of jumping on “podcast” before anyone knew what else to call that.” Apple didn’t invent the term Podcast though!

I genuinely thought CRA had been deprecated and development had ended a couple of years ago? Edit: Maybe it just stopped being a recommendation in the React Docs? https://github.com/reactjs/react.dev/pull/5487

I disagree with the often stated claim that HN is social media! To me, HN is more like an online forum. IMHO for a service to be defined as Social Media it needs to at least have a 'social graph' of some kind. HN has never suggest

As n occasions user and fan of Cursor, it would be good if they could explain what the models are and why the different models exist. There’s no obvious answer of why one should switch to any of them!

I honestly don't mind the current Google Search Results page design and additional features. For me, it's the web in general that isn't the same. Google Search is probably just as good, but I have an idea that the content to

Here’s a basic question I have: So he’s only worth that much on paper. He’d have to sell everything to get a big pile is cash. Would there be enough money sloshing around to buy all his shares and assets at the indicated value? I guess ther

Based on your comment, I remembered I used Feedly when Google Reader went away. Logging into Feedly was like going back in time! I must have imported all my Google Reader feeds into Feedly. It's a Time Capsule of a bygone age! :-D

It is in fact the Facebook Phone! Or at least a mockup of one. It has the front-facing camera in the top right corner, which is a hint! Googling suggests the Facebook phone was an HTC device?
