What don't you like about the voice? Geniune question, I'm not using it in English but I think it sounds fine in my language, and it's an improvement over the previous one.

I'm a bit confused by this post, because the Dropbox clients, on both Windows and Mac, are pretty basic and streamlined. If anything, they lack features (some are web-only for some reason) rather than being bloated.

That's strange, because they were seemingly way less capacity constrained lately, raised limits and removed the peak hours usage. It's crazy to think that even spending $1.25 billion a month to rent GPUs from SpaceX didn't do

I have the same experience, and I ended up removing Cloudflare from the websites I manage since there were too many complaints from users with shared connections or exotic browsers.

It happens all the time. For a recent example, see Windows midrange laptop pricing since the MacBook Neo was introduced, despite the RAM crisis.

I agree, the $20 plan really feels like a rip-off (and I'm not even using Claude Code! only chat).

You definitely want your AI to search legal databases, and not draw from "memory". This is where AI offerings from Thomson or Lexis could shine, especially in jurisdictions where case law is not freely available online.

It depends on the jurisdiction. I'm based in France and all cases here are now freely available online to people and agents [1], but it's very recent for lower courts. However, I recently had to work on Texas case law and we had t

"Offensive trash" is a bit much, most organizations use it without too many issues. I think it's pretty good!

We'll need to wait for the benchmarks, but this looks great! Windows 11 ARM64 is already amazing, and if these really are an upgrade from the Qualcomm chips we're going to have even better laptops on the market.

They do offer a €8/month ad-free Instagram subscription in the EU. I'm subscribed, it's pretty cool.

Anubis often takes more than 60 seconds to complete on low-end devices (especially old smartphones). It seems like there's no good solution.

This felt weirdly defensive and written in bad-faith, even with Zitron's standards in mind. Linking to his own 1000+ words premium posts as sources is also very annoying.

Brave Search has its own index which is fine, 10 blue links and no forced AI, and more importantly support for DDG-like "bangs" (like !gi sending you to Google Images), without DDG's performance issues. I highly recommend it

I have this specific keyboard, "POP Icon Keys" (not to be confused with "POP Keys"). It's fine. I can confirm that it doesn't fold and is not particularly compact.

I can only speak from my experience, but yes, multiple people (a few friends, people at work, and my uncle) have suggested to "make [me] a Wero" lately to pay me back small amounts. The fact that's it's integrated into t

Wero is not French, but it has replaced France's Paylib. It's pretty awesome and seems to quickly have replaced all other apps (Lydia, PayPal) for small payments in my friend and family circles. I'm excited to see it expand t

Great data, thanks for sharing! It's especially interesting since Spain boycotted and didn't compete this year- maybe leaving only the most dedicated viewers watching?

Interesting! Are those real articles, or just AI text? It would be nice to have links at the end.

Yes, with the recent waves of AI scrapers I have noticed on my own WordPress websites that the DB seems to the weak point when under load. Cache plugins can help a lot with this.

It's WordPress, which is a great CMS but can quickly crumble under load when using cheap hosting.

It's somehow nice to see an old-school HN hug of death once in a while, it has become a rare sight since most links are now to big platforms or to websites behind Cloudflare.
