If you have an evening to burn, 17776 by Jon Bois[0] is a surprisingly captivating multimedia story/project about this topic. It speculates about a future Earth where people have been immortal for thousands of years and explores what h

The Workbench feature to have an always-on-hand notepad overlay thing is really appealing. I always have a multi-tabbed text editor handy for quick notes and this seems like a good way to integrate that into the shell. I’d love to take this

That hypothetical scenario does not matter, it is a distraction from the real issue which is that Google’s tool produces defamatory text that is unsubstantiated by any material online. The source of the defamatory text is Google’s own tool,

On the note of artists, I always wondered why so many artists don't use a proper gallery/portfolio in addition to social media. This could be a general art-sharing platform, one of the many niche- or fandom-specific gallery sites,

I thought Fitbit bought them out and then after the sale announced that they were shutting it down instead of doing anything with it. I’m happy to be proven wrong if this isn’t the case.

I think a classic iPod touch wheel feels more polished, but the Tangara wheel is like 90% of the way there. In previous firmware versions the middle button was too sensitive but that was fixed. You can adjust the sensitivity but I find the

I love my Tangara! I even made some custom themes for it. The regular ol’ headphone jack is perfect and it sounds great too. I wouldn’t wait for the Echo R1 unless you really need Rockbox or the different I/O.
