Same here. I'd love to build a Ryzen box, and actually I'll do so for gaming, but my primary computer has to run macOS and unfortunately that requirement comes with a significant price tag, in addition to outdated hardware.

Funnily enough this kind of advertising has an adverse effect on me: Showcasing your product as sponsored content at the top of the search results at Amazon, as well as Google or the App Store, suggests that this is a subpar product that ne

I get their point, but to be fair the pixel density of the MSI model isn't comparable at all. I'd take that 5k display in a 27" format though.

Of course you're right. Nevertheless I think it's healthy to pursue interests that don't necessarily involve your partner and, perhaps more importantly, not to neglect other friends - otherwise a potentially failing relations

That’s my impression as well. I use Airtable, as well as Notion, personally in a single user environment and could see countless use cases for our team at work, but Airtable is simply too expensive and even in its highest tier the number of

You will find her name quite often when you research CSS grids - she's something of a layout and grid expert. If you'd like to read more, check out some of her fantastic posts at Smashing Magazine, where she's chief editor:

Same here. And that's exactly why the choice between upgradeability and macOS is still an easy one, at least for me. Sure, I'd love to build an affordable, modular computer, particularly since AMD's renaissance, but not if it

As a german I'd even add the shoulder check before changing lanes. There situations where the mirror alone isn't enough.

Just use XLD to rip CDs. Since there isn’t any Mac with a disc drive left I don’t see this being migrated to the new app.

But there is a standard for tagging audio data and iTunes uses it, just like any other half decent audio player / music management software. As long as your meta data is clean your library should present in a very consistent way betwee

I consider myself a huge music collector/enthusiast that maintains a carefully organized collection and the file system is way too limited to handle anything but the most simple music organization and browsing tasks. I’d go as far as f

Yes, I know - we had this discussion about a potential standard set of user configuration URLs just recently here on HN, but in my comment it was meant as not possible right now.

What? That is absolutely insane and I don't see how this could be regarded as anything but malicious behavior.

And that is exactly why they should have built their own shop and used it as their primary storefront. With services like Shopify or Squarespace it's not rocket science these days and you could still use Amazon, eBay or other marketpla

At least in iOS you can set one or multiple Password Managers which will provide login info whenever required. It works well.

I think they do, but I'd say that's a good thing - a natural development and evolvement of your taste. Slowly and after collecting countless more reference points you learn to view art, work, things in context and comparison to ot

I agree - videos should actually support all those split screen modes used by apps.

That icon takes you back to the original source app of the video - from there you can initiate fullscreen (I'd assume). I guess it would make sense to allow going from PiP directly to fullscreen, but then you'd need another button

That's my preference as well. I love the Microsoft Universal Mobile Keyboard. The cover of this keyboard also acts as stand for any mobile/tablet device and is magnetically attached to the keyboard, but obviously can be detached a

Yes, it's a bad idea. At that point I'd suggest - getting a console, which probably offers the best price/performance ratio - using something like ASRock's Deskmini A300 which is really affordable and features a GPU capa

But is that the case in practice? It's my experience that there are countless media outlets showing me popups that have the tracking options activated by default.

by thirdsun 7y ago
That's what I don't get. It's my understanding that these ad tracking options have to be opt-in. If I have to dig through countless hidden links and options to reject these settigns it's anything but opt-in. If I can&#x2
