I'm not familiar with the situation in hungary but isn't it more likely that your ISP is throttling or otherwise artificially limiting the connection to Youtube, Netflix and other services with bandwith-heavy content.

As a european football (you might call it soccer) fan, this sounds absolutely insane. Having a club move to a different city is a sure way to alienate large parts of the fan base.

Fair point. Let me rephrase it - I consider Samsung's OS itself an unnecessary third party on a phone that should be running official Android. Then again, I prefer iOS since I explicitely don't want to deal with the half-baked mes

That sounds horrible. I'd have no intention to make the place nice, to truly make it my home - what's the point if I'm probably elsewhere in a year?

A rather irrelevant nitpick to this discussion. Let's not pretend we didn't know what lost meant in this context. And of course it's the process of making a copy that's the issue.

I guess most people, even in HN circles, agree that Microsoft as well as other PC manufacturers like Dell (XPS) or Lenovo (Thinkpad) can built beautiful, high quality hardware, but as you already state in your last sentence, that's not

I'd have absolutely no problem using PC hardware. I'd love to be able to pick my components and build a better desktop for half of the price - in fact I already have such a machine for gaming purposes. However unless I can put mac

I recommended it before, but I maintain a playlist that focuses on very quiet, soothing ambient, moody soundscapes and slightly experimental music that, in my opinion, works as well for sleeping as it does for being productive and focused:

For me the frame rate is struggling to keep it even remotely close to 60fps. It's certainly not smooth. This happens in FF 61.0 Beta on an iMac 5K, but the issue applies to versions that date back to pre-Quantum days. I noticed the pro
