Slightly off topic, bit is Signal a web app? I haven't realized.

I would say a lot more verbal conversations and a lot more verbose longer form written communication, where the tone is formal anyway. I don't see many doctors and lawyers using real time IM like slack etc., which is generally a lot mo

Is there any action that could have been taken? Genuinely curious, I read about a test of some technology for deflecting asteroids a few weeks ago on HN, but I don't think we really have those capabilities yet?

OrganicMaps is a FOSS fork of maps.me I believe. I've been using it and it is great. https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps

Thanks, will check it out. Last time I looked, dendrite, construct, and conduit were not ready, so synapse was the only option (which I used). Look forward to trying out conduit.

As well as all the other uses, it can be great for a quick way to see what files a program is trying to access. E.g. some undocumented binary where it's not clear where its config should be, strace will quickly show what it tries to ac

Thanks,it is an amazing image. I was thinking I'd love to order a print of it, looks like it should be possible to get one made from the high res image.

No problem, I really like it, it's a very simple app. I rarely actually open it to see the quotes. I recently gave in and got a fitness tracker, most apps I blacklist for notifications, but it's nice to whitelist this so that thro

It's not that simple. In countries where WhatsApp is ubiquitous, it is used for more than just messaging friends. For example, many childcare places will send updates through WhatsApp groups. So you have to convince the business and al

Me too, I used the wecroak app to send me reminders throughout the day that I am going to die. It helps bring me back to the present moment.

Looks like a great option too, thanks.

Oh cool, thanks. I meant to add that in my comment; It's probably not far off a decade since I looked at nextcloud, so my impression is very out of date!

I haven't used this, but it seems it has AI photo recognition stuff. So you can search for "fish" for example and it will show photos of fish. And apparently it has facial recognition, so you can find photos of a specific per

I've been using mxroute to host some email for my family and random automation stuff for the past while. Really happy with them, I'm paying 15 USD a year on a recurring black Friday deal. I think that has 50GB storage, which is fi

And they are also supported by kagi. It's nice that kagi lets you define your own, so I can have custom ones across browsers / mobile / desktop... So long as I'm logged in and have configured kagi to be my default search

I think you need to hide root for Google wallet and some other Google services app(s). And wipe their storage / cache too so they start from a clean slate.

FWIW,I just installed GrapheneOS this week and banking apps have been working fine (though no Google pay). Also, as a sibling comment mentioned, I have used magisk + safety net fix in the past, and had no issues with banking apps or Google

Does the camera work as well as with the stock OS? I've used custom ROMs for years, but never used Graphene. My current phone is a Xiaomi Mi9T. With a custom ROM, to properly make use of the camera you need to flash a magisk module. Ot

I think it's useful for a junior engineer to display I have experience in x, y, and z, and this is how I rate my personal proficiency in each. I wouldn't take a 9/10 to mean I am in the top 10% world wide in this skill, rathe

diffuse (and meld) are great tools for diffing text files. However, this link seems to be a binary analysis tool for diffing disassembled binaries. It is a plugin for IDA Pro, one of the foremost reverse engineering tools. So I don't t

Yeah it's pretty bad, it does make me think. I've been a firefox user for probably ~ 2 decades. Saying that, I haven't personally experienced any pop-ups or ads like this.

Yup, I guessed the same, and indeed it explicitly states so in the blog post linked by another commenter. > trurl is a tool in a similar spirit of tr but for URLs. Here, tr stands for translate or transpose.
