Sceptre TVs. They sell large, dumb TVs that do not contain any networking equipment at all. https://www.sceptre.com/TV/4K-UHD-TV-category1category73.htm...

Building a platform for documenting all of the publicly accessible stained glass (something akin to Find-a-grave.com, but for stained glass). No exciting tech, just vanilla HTMl, CSS, and JS. Glad to have any help on documenting local stain

Couldn’t you use another search engine instead? I switched to DDG over a year ago and have only needed to use the -g flag a handful of times over that entire year+ worth of searches.

I think you are 100% right. Let's ban social media for all ages and wipe this scourge from the planet.

This is essentially the premise of Bowling Alone. The solution is not easy, but it is simple. We as individuals need to rebuild community in our towns and cities. Start a club, start a pickup soccer game that meets regularly, join existing

I work for one of those “evil” email software companies. Part of our business is external marketing and the much larger part of our business is internal employee communications. For over 15 years we kept track of the number of people who us

I would argue that the fatal flaw of this idea is that it is an online app. If this was solvable with technology, Meetup.com has a 15 year head start on you and they didn't solve it. I think technology is antithetical to the goal you a

I've looked into all of these orgs and every single one of them requires the belief in a "God". That has to be a huge turn off to a lot of younger people who might have been interested in joining for the social parts of the g

I didn't start learning to code until around 2014, so I didn't know SO before this change. But when you make your platform so militantly anti-helpful, militantly anti-newbie, and just all around unpleasant to interact with, then i

I'm working on a side project now and I'm using Nominatum at the moment. Normalization of addresses is the real pain point for Nominatum. Sometimes something as simple as "Avenue" vs "Ave" can be the difference

For those who drink caffeine and have reflux, try shift to decaf. I still drink the same amount of coffee as I did before, only now it is decaf rather than regular. Acid reflux disappeared to the point I didn't need a daily PPI anymore

Nah...Apple Watch batteries last 2-3 days nowadays with the proper settings. There are cellular Apple Watches available that do not require the paired phone to be close to make calls, texts, etc.
