From your link: Making Privacy Work Make sure to address the elephant in the room - privacy. Consider installing electrochromic glass panels that switch from clear to opaque. Or take inspiration from Japanese architecture with sliding woode

Yeah, I think I generally agree with the sentiment about the Serbian government but the hyperbole really ruins the argument.

I do care what they spend my subscription money on if it's not about providing a good service. The cost of this place is probably a drop in the ocean in terms of their income, but it does feel like it's yet another distraction fro

It's entirely about the 2D space in terms of being able to easily hold it in one hand and reach the whole screen, as well as other things like how it fits into pockets. I have large hands and an iPhone 13 mini, and it still feels too b

This is not any kind of admission about phone sizes. This is an "exclusive" tie-in with a high fashion brand, nothing more.

I wonder about the idea that they're less expensive. True in terms of materials, but possibly not true if the smaller production run means you can't offset the capital costs of manufacturing the parts.

I get you're referring to the profitability, but the iPhone Air is just thin, not small, which is where this conversation started.

I've managed to get around that by returning to my Nikon FM2. People react quite differently when it's clearly a film camera - even better if it's a medium format camera. That also gets around the nagging feeling that you

Can you give a source for the claim of "extensive sexual misconduct"? I've seen allegations of bullying, which is clearly bad enough, but nothing sexual.

If true, this seems like a serious problem for something that's supposed to stop circumvention. Uninstalling an app is trivial on iOS, even easier than unlocking Screen Time. If not - e.g. if you have to scan the barcode / QR code

I'll be very interested to see the definition of "ultra-processed" in this legislation. I couldn't find one at a first glance - it seems to mandate that someone defines it, but doesn't contain a definition itself fr

Thanks for the DNS resolver idea - will look into that. The issue with having to actively block YouTube channels is that there are so many! I really want something where all channels are blocked by default and I can whitelist them, but with

Yeah, the reader of the audiobook is pretty good, although I slightly prefer Grover Gardner, who recorded the audiobooks for his series on LBJ, as a narrator. If you like The Power Broker , I'd highly recommend those.
