MiniReview is a pretty good source of info. The YouTube channel post reviews of a handful of new games pretty frequently, and occasionally publishes "best of" sort of videos with some of his favorites. And then the app is basicall

I think it's a ratio of votes to time. I think as little as 4 votes can get something on the homepage if they come in fairly quickly. The source code for hn is available if you want to go and look up the specifics. I'm not sure if

I think the low price of the Raspberry Pi helped build a community, and now that community is sustaining it's popularity even though the availability dropped and the price skyrocketed.

That's awesome, congrats Pixelfed team! The next thing I'd like to see is a way to make it ongoing - specifically I'd like to have a automatically updated backup of my wife's Instagram account. She posts a lot of things

I made a series of reddit posts that collectively involved a fair amount of research, so I ended up copying them over to my personal website in order to have a better primary source. But I'll probably run this to grab everything else.

The thing is, I think a lot of moderators use third-party apps. So, while it may be a small percentage of users, I suspect that losing them (or even just impairing their ability to moderate) will have an outsized negative impact on reddit.

FWIW, I have used Thunderbird locally in the past. And it felt clunky then too.

This works on the Raspberry Pi Zero, and the Raspberry Pi 4. I'm not sure about the Zero 2, but I know the other models lack hardware support for the feature. You can buy a cool little PCB that attaches to the Zero and gives it a male

Geekerwan on YouTube tests the performance and effiency of different cores at different frequencies. This is one good example where the A55 and A510 (successors to the A53) are graphed at around 15:40: https://youtu.be/s0ukX

Agreed. I'm perfectly happy to have a couple of A53s in my phone for background tasks. Four feels a bit overkill but okay, maybe it makes the big.LITTLE design work better. But I've always been disappointed by devices that are all

I should clarify: while it's automated from the Motorola side, it's still a bunch of manual steps for the device owner. You have to create an account and have a desktop PC involved, and if I remember right Motorola, gives you a bu

Motorola has an automated process where you send them the phone serial number or something like that and they'll send you back a code that can be used to unlock the bootloader. I'm on a Moto g100 that I bought last year, originall

This isn't great, but what they did with the Pixel 2 was far more egregious - they permanently looked the bootloaders of any phone that came back from a warranty repair. It really soured me on the Pixel line, I'm not sure I'l
