I'm not sure about Firefox, but Safari let's you set reader mode as default for a domain — and since Safari 16, this setting is synced to all your devices.

Such a good magazine. A reminder to avoid as much as possible to depend on tech startups to provide most of your funding. It’s not sustainable and they will cut you off at the first roadblock.

On the browser itself? A few months ago I started to rely on Safari's bookmark system only to save long-term pages and temporary ones — for a weekly newsletter of interesting links[1] I publish. It's been working very well. Easier

I found it almost a self-parody, probably the best joke Ben Stiller has ever told — a show mocking Apple that runs on an Apple service. Shameless plug: my take on “Severance”: https://notes.ghed.in/posts/severance-apple

Oh, good luck with that! You've probably heard this, but Portuguese grammar is super hard. Except for teachers, enthusiasts, and academics, I guess nobody here really knows, let alone explain most of our grammar rules. Speaking for mys

Thanks for the tip! I guess I use “+10 years” because of how we say in Portuguese (“mais de 10 anos”, as the “more than” comes first than the “10 years”).

You're right. Anyway, I don't work or do anything that calls for gloves — haven't use them in… I don't know, 20+ years?

I considered the 13 Mini, gave up due to two things: it's (really) expensive here in Brazil, and its cameras (or its main camera) isn't noticeable better than the one on SE. I couldn't justify spending the extra money for pre

Most of latest tech? I found it to be a great upgrade coming from the iPhone 8: overall faster, slightly better battery life, better camera with a few new tricks. As I wrote in the article, I wouldn't mind upgrading every four or five

Definitely low cost comparing to any other current iPhone. For me, Android isn't an option (too deep into Apple ecosystem).

Maybe, but mini version will be phased out in iPhone 14 lineup. Besides, iPhone SE is way cheaper, and I suspect part of its success is due to pricing.

Yeah, it was the only one available here for a comparison. Low light in the (only?) scenario on which iPhone SE's camera really lags behind the more expensive iPhones. I can't understand how Apple gave it the portrait mode, but no

Even though I really like the SE, obviously there are infinite ways to make a good phone. Turns out this old one works for me, plus it's cheap, really fast, and I'm used to it — what else can I ask for a phone? Pricing is a very s

Thanks! Yeah, I also prefer the flat sides (miss my old iPhone 5), but SE's rounded one isn't much a problem for me. Maybe I'm too zealous, but in seven years using this type of phone, I've never dropped one. (They dropp

Well, some iPhones work with masks — my girlfriend's iPhone 11 doesn't. Gloves aren't necessary here :) I live in the (allegedly) Brazil's coldest state capital, Curitiba, and you can get through winter here without them
