In March 2025, Drew DeVault wrote a blog post called "Please stop externalizing your costs directly into my face"[1]. I think that is a pretty good guess as to why these bots do not care about frequency of changes, it costs to muc

There's a scene where Rita, in the future, tries to call Upgraydd, but there are 9726 listings for people called Upgraydd at that point.

Like virtualized NICs pretending to be an NE2000? That's interesting, do you know why they'd use a G200 and not something like an older ATI chip?

It's probably just me being out of touch, but I don't think the GeForce RTX 4000 or 5000 series really mattered/matters that much. At the same time I'd add the S3 ViRGE and the Matrox G200. Both mattered a lot at the tim

For large swaths of music I'm not sure that matters all that much, not anymore. At least the copy-paste bands had some level of uniqueness, there always seemed to be a distinct sound or gimmick. I don't really like much of the &qu

But you can do that the same way you do with the app. The does this by tying you ticket to your season pass, and to you. If you want to give the ticket to someone else, call the ticket office, ask them to re-register the ticket to your frie

I'm in my 40s, there is a shit ton of modern UX I struggle with. Basically anything gesture based for example, but really a lot of apps are just shit and have no sensible UX design behind them, so you need to try to click everything an

There's an amusement park we like to go to. We get season passes, which normally means renewing the small plastic card we got the first year. They've switched to app only this year, with the option of getting a card, if for some r

Does anything happen in the dk. hierarchy anymore. Last time I check, probably 10 years ago, it was either spam or one crazy person. It's a bit of a shame, I really want something like dk.city.copenhagen and dk.city.copenhagen.noerrebr

Why not just attach a real dollar amount, rather than using "credits"? Well, I know why. I just wanted to be snarky. It's just that trying to hide the actual price is getting a bit old. Just tell me that generating this much

Last week I was watching a YouTube video, talking about the EU creating payment services independent of VISA and MasterCard. What struck me is that they are all apps, which will require an app store. Great, I can pay with a digital Euro, We

That's just trying to promote a competitor. This is more or less what Fraunhofer did with the mp3 license, which resulted in bunch of new, and better formats.

A few years ago I was thinking about how one might do the same for Danish laws, but those are written by idiots (lawyers). Rather than revising a law, a new one seems to be written using text like: The word "is" replaces the word

Generally the whole thing needs to be flipped upside down. Extensions is the easy one, there's not reason a random website can list your installed extensions, zero. For other capabilities, like BlueTooth API, rather than querying the b

Oh, I read it as the number of subscribers would triple, but you're suggesting the price will? That makes a little more sense, because the number of subscribers are so low that tripling won't really make much difference in terms o

Tech-reviewers keep harping on the MacBook for not having a touch option, but I think it's mostly of check a box. Something no one seems to address is that it makes no sense to have touch on the laptop screen, because you honestly don&

Because it would blur the lines between the iPad and MacBook to much. Right now it's two clearly distinct product lines, with separate use cases. Adding touch to the MacBook could hurt iPad sales (in the pro segment). I also think Appl

Weird that their website isn't updated yet. My subscription renewed earlier this year and I noticed that the price had come down, but that's because the dollar has lost 15% of it's value since last year. That is a pretty big

Short of using pass, what are some good alternatives? My main critic of 1Password has been the cost, but it is a very good password manager, and price seems to have gone down... Or at least the dollars has weakened enough that the price has
