I self-host using docker. It is very reliable including updates. Transition is as easy as exporting your 1P database and importing it into BW. Integration in IOS is very similar as 1P. Overall, 1P's apps are more polished than BW. You

Plus you can even self-host and the mobile apps support this out of the box.

Wallabag is closer to Pocket than LinkAce. Wallabag also offers annotation, search on content and saving pay-walled content (with an account). To me, content search is the killer feature and was the first thing I looked for when looking at

No it is not. Our society is build around people living together are married. You get more rights (inheritance, euthanasia, etc) and benefits (pooling your taxes). It is that way because it was the default for a long time. Now it is shiftin

I use Google Apps but with my own domain. My own domain gives me the opportunity to take my business elsewhere with limited impact. The caveat is that I pay $6 / month (instead of free).

It’s ok now. I still have rotation issues on my iPad where it gets confused and the screen is on its side. I had an issue on my iPhone X where it was connected to wifi without showing the icon. But there’s plenty written on iOS 13’s buggine

Same. Whenever Apple announces a new major version, it’s time for me to disable auto-update on all my Apple devices. iOS 13 was particularly bad and I waited until January. I hope they did a better job with 14.

True but the problem is that it mandates presence-based earnings (by the hour) and not output-based. That is the reason it does not work with the model Uber & Lyft built. Obviously, Lyft and Uber could've anticipated this and could

I do not think anyone disputes Ubuntu's goals or intentions. The problem is that the snap store is managed by Ubuntu without any community oversight. By not releasing source code to the store, other distributions cannot create their ow

Also love you can encrypt your files at rest. Something which Dropbox does not offer.

That report says there was a drop of 0.2% in labor participation in March. That's not a lot.

Call FIOS just before the 12-month anniversary and ask them for a discount or you walk. I always got to keep my "discount".

This is THE reason I stopped using Netflix. Besides being bombarded with sound, I was actually halfway reading the description when it is replaced with a running video. When my CC was stolen (and blocked), Netflix was the only company who p

The original content of Netflix is mediocre at best. It feels the content is analytics driven and commissioned than made out of passion. I canceled Netflix a month or so back. I just use Hulu and Prime Video. I replaced some popular shows w

The passport is to prove US citizenship. Otherwise you cannot reasonably distinguish between permanent residents and citizens. Both can have a driver's license. Visa holders can have a driver's license too but it mentions the expi

I use <last>.com which makes for a neat <first>@<last>.com email. I've had it for more than 20 years. Funny story is that the hosting company keeps being bought, acquired or merged. I think I went through this process

I moved from NYT to Economist for all of these reasons. NYT went berserk after the 2016 elections if you ask me. Now every article feels like an opinion piece.

Interesting you think that. Van Gogh was a great painter but the museum is really not that good. I went last year. I find most art museums where I live (NYC) more interesting IMHO. They've also a no-photographs-policy and overly aggres

That could be, but no other music app (Spotify, TuneIn, Tidal or Flacbox) have this issue for me.

Yea, I hear you. For me, Apple Music randomly pauses my music when it is on bluetooth or ipod dock every 60-90s. Googling it revealed that I am not alone and this issue has been going on since the introduction of Apple Music app. Every rele

When I stopped using Facebook and deleted the app, Facebook started sending me emails like "You have 7 unread notifications". They didn't even specify or list the notifications itself, just the count unread. Super desperate.

EU parliament is lame duck, the commission can ignore any resolution if they so please. Democracy in EU is only second order because commission is made up government representatives of each member.

Yes, poor Nucleus. The Echo line of devices makes it even more versatile. You can call a cheap Echo Dot in the kids' bedroom from your expensive Echo Show in the kitchen. With Amazon's brand and market power, I am not sure how the
