And the highest profit product you left out that was also category defining: Airpods.

Kobo was a Canadian company (before being bought out by Rakuten, though I think they still have a big office in Toronto) and I'm Canadian. So I think we were early adopters of their e-readers for that reason. All our bookstores and ele

Kobo + Libby + Calibre has been my loadout for a decade. Works great!

Yeah it seems similar to Gemini Enterprise. There you can deploy "apps" (basically front-ends) on top of the LLM that come pre-configured with plugins to access Google sheets, Databases, your Jira boards, etc. So all this is doing

Yep. Personally I run it via docker (my home server setup is just a compose file) but they have OS installers for MacOS/Windows/some Linux distros, as well as a raw .NET .dll[1] you can use to run it anywhere you have the .NET run

It's open source. If Microsoft did anything weird it would be immediately forked ala. terraform, ElasticSearch etc. There's so much momentum behind it from the front-end community alone it's not going anywhere. IMO using Type

I'm a little gun-shy of getting another Dell after two bad machines in a row (two separate models with swollen batteries < 3 years old), but I'll admit the 14 looks nice now that they've brought back the physical function

by seabrookmx 6mo ago
I assume this isn't the case with every machine, but every hardware I've ever owned (including the Framework 13, which has pretty good Linux support) has had worse battery life under Linux (mainstream distros like Fedora and Ubunt

Why not use Jellyfin? It's also .NET if you're itching to contribute :)

It did have a JIT, it just wasn't a very performant one. I recall the GC implementation also being quite slow. GC is an area where .NET is still making strides.. we got a new collector in .NET 10.

Only if you didn't care about performance. We attempted a move to mono for backend web services maybe 3 years before .NET Core released, and it was a complete no-go. 10x reduction in performance on the same hardware. This wasn't s

The standard go toolchain doesn't use LLVM. Go has its own assembly format and machine code generation.

I still daily the wallet! It's just a very simple leather card pouch but the raw leather ended up looking really nice once it wore in. I recently discovered they're local to me but seem to only do custom items now.

Rust also has a much steeper learning curve. I can onboard an average developer that's familiar with Typescript and have them be productive in C# in a week. This one is more subjective, but I also think C# has a more mature and painles

Ditto. C# gets a bad rap due to its Windows-exclusive history, but it's now cross platform and has most of the features PL nerds are looking for. Strict nulls, pattern matching, a really mature and easy to use async ecosystem (it inven

GNOME 44 has built-in support finally, but they're hidden in the quick settings menu. I prefer having them in the tray so I can see if they're running without having to click around.

It wasn't actually! I've been using a third party extension that tries to provide a similar tray icon (after moving from a different extension that doesn't support my version of GNOME) but it's really flaky. I'll tr

You can get dongles for pretty much any controller you like.. Switch Pro, Wii U, Xbox etc. It's generally more stable than using bluetooth on a controller that supports it, especially if you position the dongle to have clear sight to y

It's also really hard to store. The tanks need to be made of exotic materials and withstand incredible pressures.

A standard wall socket doesn't provide enough amperage to charge an EV at reasonable rate if you use your car more than once or twice a week. Maybe this is less of a problem in the EU where people generally have shorter commutes, but I

They were late to the game but are definitely investing more now. They have three full EV's, in rough order of size: CH-R, BZ (previously called BZ4x), and BZ Woodland (basically a long station wagon version of the former). Subaru is a
