Use the TV App on macOS. Just go into the list view and right-click on a movie (or multiple) and then you can download it. I let the TV app do all its own folder/library management. I've just configured the library to be on my ext

Yeah, unfortunately you can't download the 4K versions. But for me that's an OK tradeoff since I've never once had to use the downloaded version to actually watch something on my AppleTV; everything has still been available i

I buy digital movies all the time. Not often at full price because there are sales and deals on iTunes weekly (daily). To me, "buying" a movie for $4.99 or even $8.99 (which is only a dollar or two more than the rental price) is w

Looks nice, congrats on the launch. Two things that aren’t clear to me from the App Store page (I haven’t downloaded the app): 1. Why is account creation necessary? Why can’t I just store/sync my bookmarked poems with iCloud? 2. What

https://libro.fm has been my go-to for audiobooks in the past. Bonus that it supports your local bookstore too.

Pretty sure this is an automated word removal action by the HN submission form. There've been threads about the words that are filtered out by default. It comes down to trying to make titles less clickbait-y. Though I do agree that &qu

Might be on Netflix in other countries, but it’s on AppleTV+ in the US. (Also, if the live production is touring near you- go see it. I saw it live a few years ago and it was awesome!)

Do you prefer not to use a catchall alias[1] to prevent someone from just sending mail to garbage12345@yourdomain or for some other reason? I also use unique addresses for every website account I have but with the catchall, I don’t need to

I get that ‘tuc’ is just ‘cut’ backwards but I was kind of hoping it also stood for ‘the ultimate cutter’ or something like that. :) In either case, very cool. Thanks for sharing. I’ll be using this for sure!

Regarding YouTube ads on iPad: App called ‘Vinegar - Tube Cleaner’. Incredible. Best few bucks I’ve ever spent. It replaces the native YouTube player with the standard iOS video player which means you can also do system-wide picture-in-pict

Call the post office. They will typically ask you to put your last name on the inside of your box and then they will tell the carrier to only deliver mail with your name (or ‘Current Resident’ obviously). If you’re lucky, your carrier is ni

I used it for about 30 minutes years and years ago and didn’t really like it but Carrot Weather for iOS fits this bill. I believe it insults the user and generally uses snarky language. That’s pretty much its whole schtick, so it’s not real
