I care! I have to cross-reference multiple apps to get a good detailed forecast, a "minutecast" of precipitation, and Canadian humidex and windchill numbers. I haven't tried this one yet because I'm a little confused wh

I like(d) LocalStack fine, but you've got the same kind of problem that Minio has. > As a result of this shift, we cannot commit to releasing regular updates to the Community edition of LocalStack for AWS. https://blog.lo

I think it was more of an intentional tradeoff, as one of the many goals of CT logs was to allow domain owners to discover certificates issued for their domains, or more generally for any interested party to audit the activity of a certific

I am a long-time CCC user, but bootable backups haven't been supported for a while now, basically since Big Sur -- if you're counting on that, make sure you're testing it regularly. https://bombich.com/blog&#x

There was a third purpose (or perhaps a combination of those two): recruiting. There is a lot less recruiting happening these days.

Yes, the flickering problem is definitely an S-series issue.

I have the 27" from that series. In my experience, after I fixed the RGB issue, I also fixed the flickering issue. And to fix the RGB issue, I used BetterDisplay[1], controlled by a Hammerspoon[2] script[3] that calls its CLI on the

It would be a really ineffective monitor if you couldn't see the pixels.

I think they mean "but those pixels are very small, right?"

And it used to be better -- you could use TotalSpaces which would make Spaces two-dimensional and let you turn off the animation. But they took that from us! There is a way of using Stage Manager as though it was Spaces, with minimal animat

It's a pretty big coincidence that the thing that someone mentioned in passing about in this earlier post[1] happened to come true some days later, from a 4-day-old Reddit account. The legal advice subreddits are, unfortunately, often

Larry was (and presumably is, but I'm out of that loop) a gem. The Weird Al of programming languages. Hilarious and kind. But those who remember the regulars of, say, efnet #perl (THIS ISN'T A HELP CHANNEL), there was a dearth o
