Ninn··on Show HN: Open-Source eInk Bike Computer
Love the project and progress made, along with the ESP32 ANT!

But to be more involved and support a project like this I really would need it to be based on a board with proper weather resistance! Hope you find that as an option in the future.

Ninn··on Europe's $24T Breakup with Visa and Mastercard Has Begun
Like sepa, this initiative can be forced by law and made open rather than tanken hostage by large cooperates, which may then exclude parts of the market.
Ninn··on Google’s OAuth login doesn’t protect against purchasing a failed startup domain
> To me it is reasonable that orgs may want to eventually reuse an email address on a different user account. That's a feature decision made by the IdP so SPs need to respect it

I think everyone, including the authors hopefully agrees with that logic and sentiment. And that would be the literal point of the sub claim after all!

But the implication in the article is still, as i read it, that it changes in place in practice, and not in the case of re-creating the user under the same workspace. But i obviously do not have the background to clarify!

Ninn··on Google’s OAuth login doesn’t protect against purchasing a failed startup domain
But authors does imply that sub will also change in place for users in step #1, without the workspace beeing recreated. And as such the sub is not usable as a general identifier for the user resource differentiation.
Ninn··on Cable-cutting tanker seized by Finland 'was loaded with spying equipment'
So if everyone is responsible for their own actions, why are you including Ukraine in this context? After all this is in isolation Russia committing (yet another) crime.

You are the one picking and choosing here.

Ninn··on People with gas and propane stoves breathe more unhealthy nitrogen dioxide
That analogy seems more in line with the risk of gas leaks and explosions.

The subject here is more that in addition to that, every time you use the pool, you have to gobbel down a bit of posion water. But in addition to that, you depend on using that thing almost daily.

Ninn··on Sam Altman on X: "we are pausing new ChatGPT Plus sign-ups for a bit"
I guess if you just have a free account then you can still only use 3.5 as you are requesting here?
Ninn··on George Hotz becomes a Twitter intern to fix search
I recon only a legend such as Geohot him self could achieve such a complex task, bravo!
Ninn··on Microsoft is phoning home the content of PowerPoint slides
In our companies slides we have tons of confidential slides containing info that could be misused for insider trading by MS engineers?
Ninn··on Why are D-sharp and E-flat considered to be two different notes?
I recon this Feakonomics podcast includes the answer amongst other interesting related topics: https://freakonomics.com/podcast/mathematician-sarah-hart-on...

It might be worth a listen for anyone who finds the topic interesting, but the answer is obviously already found in the top response too.

Ninn··on US quietly urges more use of Russia fertilizer to ease food crisis
Did you consider the possible orders of magnitude of impact the two different actions would cause? This is not an apples to apples comparison.
Ninn··on Netflix loses subscribers for the first time in 10+ years
Many use a few different apps such as radarr, sonarr and all their siblings to grab media into torrent downloaders which is then served via plex i.e.
Ninn··on Ask HN: Is there a good reason why I can't set my oven below 200F?
My new AEG goes all the way to 20C. In single step. Great for fermentation of sourdough i.e.!

Ninn··on Audacity: Actions we propose to take on PR 835
Based on your stance it seems that you have not seen the intentions declared in the original PR, including opt-in approaches and the use of data solely for development and UX improvements?
Ninn··on Show HN: Control your Bose headphones from your Mac's menubar
It seems someone has taken on the spirit of "Move fast, break feelings"
Ninn··on Apparent hackers behind Kia ransomware attack demand millions in Bitcoin
I dont think zigbee covers the usecase highlighted. Consider your are at a cafe and your vehicle is parked on the street maybe 700m away.

Or alternatively that you live in an apartment complex where your vehicle does not reach your personal router.

Ninn··on Visual Studio Code Comes to Raspberry Pi
Perhaps https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html is worth a read.
Ninn··on Counterfeiting Stock – Explaining illegal naked shorting and stock manipulation
Just to clarify, many portfolios are created in a way that lending allowed is ON by default, as such people may not be explicitly by the actual owner, but something that the given trading platform does using your underlying assets.

This is similar to how the bank may lend out your current balance and not actually hold ALL of the money that its customers has in their accounts.

Ninn··on AstraZeneca/EU contract
In addition to be in quiet explicit breach of contract and extremely unethical, attitude given the world situation, you still do realise that if EU had done the same and restricted exports of the BioNTech vaccine GB had been even more in the shitter.

GB is by far one of the worst performers in the region in handling covid: https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/l7meq9/covid_deaths...

Now try to imagine a world where the development of the Oxford vaccine had failed. And EU based companies had had the success in their place, would you still be having a laugh, given that GB would be on the end of the unfulfilled contract?

Ninn··on AstraZeneca/EU contract
Person who laughed and still laughs at Brexit here. The contract terms of the british contract has not been uncensored as far as I know?
Ninn··on A new jailbreak for a new era
Whew, good thing you're not in charge then.

To me it would seem that the vision for iPad OS is the exact opposite. An attempt at bridging towards having the iPad as a much more generic, almost laptop solution. Close to what the Surface has been trying.

Ninn··on Is Apple Silicon Ready?

Ninn··on Belarus turned off the internet – citizens hot-wired it
It still will be for the state that has authority for the given provider.
Ninn··on Forget Google, time to end the Visa-MasterCard duopoly
While it is true that we have more options, I do not agree that non credit card mobile payment options are a primary payment. These still lack a lot of usability improvement in comparison to the now widespread mobile credit cards supported by almost all banks too. So I still recognise visa and their support for Apple Pay helps maintain this power.

Heres to hoping that Apple Pay (and Android) will open up directly to banks or solutions such as Mobile Pay, which bridges to direct bank transfers for member banks and then utilise credit cards as a backup for unsupported banks.

Ninn··on Show HN: Solid, a free and MIT licensed design system / UI kit for Bootstrap 4
Honestly I have the same lag. Chrome on OSX MBP 15" 2018.
Ninn··on Gemini – A new, collaboratively designed internet protocol

Ninn··on NY hospitals pitch tents, nix surgeries to prepare for influx
US are not even testing, theres a ton of evidence that cases upon cases that match the description of corona does not get tested. The US could very well be much much futher ahead already than the current official claims.. Much like China was criticised for.
