Highly recommend installing FLauncher[1] as an alternative to Google's ad-filled TV home screen. Just a nice simple icon grid. [1] https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.efesser.fla...

Yes, it’s an MMS feature. But iMessage makes it way too easy to “text to email” inadvertently when you start a group chat with some non-iPhone users. MMS sucks but it’s the universal way for iPhone and Android users to communicate without

The point is that those other apps don’t use email addresses as the handle to contact someone. If someone iMessages you, the iMessage might (appear to) come from their phone number, or it could (appear to) come from their email. If you have

I can’t tell if this article is AI generated or just sloppily written. The organization is really weird. There are just two (very specific) subheadings in the piece: “Bunny Bear Booster Seat (1933)” and “In the 1970s Car Hammocks for Babies

When I researched M Discs a few years ago, people were saying there was no real difference between regular Blu-ray recordable discs and the M Disc version (unlike DVDs, where M Disc is actually physically different than a DVD-R).

Since this is coming from McKinsey, I’m inclined to say this is not at all what the 2030s will look like.

I think the “newer” LACK is the one you disassembled. Time flies, they cost-reduced it quite a number of years ago.

The health insurance google’s TVCs have access to is so much worse than what FTEs get that it’s hardly worth mentioning.

I'm 90% sure Amazon paid SNL to make this ad (SNL does paid brand integration in various skits, see Tom Scott's video on product placement for other examples https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-x8DYTOv7w ). It's

Reading stuff like this makes me glad to live on the west coast, where dad shorts and a t-shirt is appropriate workplace attire.

In the US in my experience, it seems like all banks rely on SMS or email-based 2-factor. I’m sure that will change but our financial institutions are perpetually behind the times. So at least for American users, the lack of banking apps isn

America is more Brave New World than 1984; people can protest the government, but if that protest rarely overcomes the inertia of the status quo, does it even matter?

On my old car, deleting the music app prevented the shitty radio from detecting that my “iPod” (aka iPhone) was even connected, so I had to have the Music app installed even if I wanted to play Spotify.

So even if the ground forces continue to do poorly, what stops Russia from continuing to hit civilian targets with air strikes indefinitely until Ukraine is ready to negotiate?

The property boundaries are not always visible, but they are defined in government records (in the US, typically with the local property tax assessor’s office). It’s not uncommon for a lot boundary to be temporarily marked with stakes and t

Arguably the Lightning port is more durable than the USB C port. It does tend to fill up with pocket lint though.

Wirecutter really illustrates the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect. Some of their recommendations are fine, but whenever they review something more niche than phone charger cables, I go to the comments/Reddit/forums to find out why their
