So, I've been looking for jeans with magazine pockets ever since 5.11 stopped making their Defender-Flex in regular colors. How are the legs on the Intercepters? Any taper at all?

Boy, I really don't know how he feels about the one-time purchases after all this time, but I've been a user of Pushover for almost 9 of the 10 years it's been available, and I absolutely love it. It's multi-platform, it

You can now set Private DNS on Android, that's at least handy, and I think you can achieve the same thing on iOS through VPN settings or "Encrypted DNS".

This is a huge annoyance. If you long press and select "Open in browser", this redirect doesn't seem to happen. I'd love for a Firefox Android extension to remove this, alas it doesn't seem to have been 'blesse

I wholeheartedly agree with these issues, and what order are the share options in, anyway? Alphabetical makes sense to me, and I guess so does having it in "most recently used", but I much prefer my selection targets to consistent

Why use Kotlin when you can build it in React Native, and get an iOS counterpart for essentially free out of the codebase? Curious as to why a new learner would go this route.

Completely depends what you're looking to do. I used my Pixel 5 running GrapheneOS to test and release an app I have in the Play Store. I run a small business from it (email, e-commerce, fulfilling orders, etc) I run Termux and full fa

I'm just gonna say it, but does this really need to be monetised? Look, I don't know you, and I mean no disrespect, but this is one of the reasons why the Internet sucks now, it's filled with built-in-30-minutes-with-the-du-j

Security!= Privacy Providing a phone number doesn't undermine the security of Signal at all. I'd also hazard to say that Signal isn't proprietary either, yes, there are parts of the project that are pretty opaque and we can d

All platitudes aside, comparison really is the thief of joy. Lots of people have very different situations from what they project (witting or unwittingly), they might be running up debt to pay for their lifestyle or maybe they have profitab

Use a different user. GrapheneOS can forward notifications from background to active user. I also use a separate phone for my side business and ignore my work-provided phone 99% of the time cause I'm not on-call. Siloing the data on yo

It's specifically buildable for users who would rather spend time than money or prefer to build for other reasons entirely. I am more likely to buy it because the authors see building as an acceptable choice to acquire their software,

Pixel 5 + GrapheneOS makes me feel the same way about my device as the author. It's small enough to pocket in a pair of lightweight shorts. It's bland to look at, no branding, symmetrical bezels all around, but stuffed with all th

I'm really torn on Signal these days. It's still a great method of communication, but it's kinda floating in a sea of other great methods of communication. I remember using TextSecure while rockin' a Whisper System shirt

This might be for connecting to a keyboard or input peripheral, many users, especially Mac ones don't use wired keyboard or mice. Security and user hostility aside, I can see this being one of the main reasons to re-enable it during &q

I saw the need after wanting something similar, but nobody was offering it. Guess I have some cross-domain knowledge to know it was possible to do. For me, reverse engineering it was easy, the most difficult part was/is sourcing elect

I scratched my own itch. I wanted the product and knew others in the industry would too. Once I was able to get it in the hands of a few operators to see and use, it started selling "organically" through word of mouth.

I currently manufacturer a fairly niche product with nothing but a 7 year old $250 3d printer, some off the shelf parts, and a bit of custom electronics. Very high profit margin, as I am the only producer of this item (!). I'd love to

Leave the button recessed after it's been selected, even if the LED fails (how often does this actually happen?) it's still a visual and tactile indicator. To deselect the floor, simply press in again.
