The Model 3 is the one without a dashboard, the Model S has a secondary screen for a dashboard.

You can encrypt the synced data. Through it's probably only possible because Google doesn't need to snoop on the synced data when their browser is pinging everything you do back to them anyway through various Chrome telemetry feat

Every now and again ElevenClock gets confused and renders the extra clocks offset slightly on my main screen. Generally after screens have been sleeping, GPU driver updates/restarts, etc. Great tool though, works 99% of the time which

The app upgrades were solid, but I missed the classic Windows 2000 look which you couldn't quite get with 7 without modifying system files.

You gotta fuck shit up every now and again to take the easy victories when you unfuck what you previously fucked.

They installed ElevenClock and forgot about it.

They are creating a LOT of issues for people if they don't provide a tool to migrate the account to a non G-suite account. I'll be moving email elsewhere, but losing that account and all the services it's connected to will re

I haven't looked at it but I would hope that "Sign in with Google" provides the service using it with a stable ID other than the email address. But I can also see services ignoring that and just using the email address anyway

This is exactly how I feel, and now I'm not sure where to move because I have 8 domains configured and services like ProtonMail want me to pay them for every domain (which just makes no sense to me, I can't figure out how the code

Definitely felt all of these, but I moved from LastPass to 1Password after 7 had been released so didn't know they were regressions. That's really shitty actually. I am honestly infuriated by shit like this because it just doesn&#

Right!? The hard part is integrating nicely with the OS, which is just not something that's in Electrons bag. The thing Electron "improves" for them is portability for the one thing that users really want to avoid interacting

Took a peek, looks really nice, might have to give it a spin! Are there any solutions for .kdbx files on Windows that have a nice UI? My memories of KeePass are not great.

I don't even mind the subscription fee and cloud hosting personally, just make a kickass native app like they always had and I'll stay. If they force me to "upgrade" to 8 and it's not a native app then I'll jus

Great, maybe now they'll be able to afford native apps instead of Electron...

They do? Do you have any product names you can share?

I agree it's a stupid problem to have when simple solutions exist (use cool features while developing, babel them into old boring code that runs on your smart fridge from 2002), but it's a problem nonetheless and a problem we woul

Exactly, the best example with regards to the App Store is Apples own participation in large swaths of it with both iCloud storage (Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, etc), Apple TV+ (Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, etc), or Apple Music (Spo

Yeah that's the problem entirely. We need legal regulations here to force Apples hand. If you can't define in simple terms what specific category of entertainment your device falls under then you've made a general purpose com

If you're talking about hardware capabilities you are so wrong. They are only in the market position that they are in because their stuff is expensive, and people think they need to buy new stuff so often that Apples stuff becomes proh

Even 15% ongoing is criminal in my opinion. Other payment processors take <5%.

But a lot of app classes can't. Browsers being the obvious one, but generally anything that requires optimised code, heavy computation, multi-threadedness, or access to certain sensors. Anything that fits any of those requirements has

And this is the issue as I see it. Apple have made a device they know will be used a certain way, a general purpose computing device, but they are the only ones who can decide what software is allowed on it. I believe this should be illegal

Mullvad has a custom-built bare metal UEFI implementation based on coreboot, I assume stboot is an evolution of that, which means it takes as close as you can get to full responsibility for initialization of all system components like proce

I highly doubt your VPN traffic will pass Sweden if you're outside Sweden and signing onto a Mullvad VPN server located outside of Sweden. The server list may be fetched from Sweden I guess? I haven't looked at the apps traffic to
