It’s telling that the presented argument for our best food is barbecue, food that lacks vegetables. Us Americans do not know how to properly cook vegetables. Personally, I’ll take Greek and Italian cooking over French, but anything is bette

These articles are all so great! I loved reading the ones on the SNES and GBA. My dream is to work on the software that powers these video game systems, but I’m entirely lacking in that domain. One day, I would love to work on a portable co

Agreed. Something I commonly observe, which I’m guilty of too, is getting so excited about technological innovation that we can’t see the forest for the trees. I get that the idea of being able to order a sub sandwich on a whim and have it

Not entirely, but that’s a really nice feature! It brings a great design my grandparents’ voicemail on their landline has had for decades. What I want is how the Google Pixel lets you screen calls. The unknown caller talks to a robot that r

This review is always the best way for me to discover the new features in the new iOS updates. Always well created. Doesn’t look like too many big changes in iOS 17. The primary feature I would like to see added is the Google Pixel’s call s

When I looked into running it locally on my own server, I couldn’t get it to work because it required https. I connect to my local server with WireGuard without exposing it otherwise to the internet, so I don’t have a need for https. There’

It’s truly a shame the iPhone SE wasn’t updated to add USB C. A modern iPhone that fits one-handed use and has a home button, headphone jack, and USB C would be perfect.

Using AirPods with an iPhone really is great. The annoying thing is my Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones connect to a Google pixel very similarly to how AirPods connect to an iPhone. I wish that pairing process were more open on iPhone because it

I would love to have my website added to the list because I block all crawlers in my robots.txt, but it looks like I’m not allowed to submit my own website. Is there a way to go about having it added? It would be great to be part of kagi se

Both are fine for vpn performance. However, Mullvad has won me over with their business practices. Mullvad accepts my payment for a month of use at a time, and I manually renew it (after I receive a reminder) each month. If I don’t need a v

I’m surprised no one has mentioned repurposed iPad screens[0]. I just received mine, and it’s fairly nice given the price. It uses a 4:3 aspect ratio, but that’s fine for secondary content when working on my laptop. It also works great for

That’s absolutely correct that it was overpriced. However, a large portion of the cost was the extremely high quality instruction manual for putting it all together. It was cheaper than a university course, and now I love tinkering with ele

I worked in public accounting with some major corporations as clients. Every single company I interacted with used SAP. It is the de facto software in its field and is deeply entrenched. Its UX is the most horribly wicked thing I’ve ever co
