Dawn of the year of the Linux desktop!

This is less about religion directly and more about sharing a cool app imo.

Also, tbf, there are regular posts on the HN front page that I would consider "political". (Though I'm not bothered by them.)

The fact is that many doctors do suck. Nearly all of my family members have terrible doctor stories, one even won a huge malpractice law suit. We can’t hide the real problems because we’re afraid of anti-vaxxers.

The shift wouldn't have been so turbulent if npm had simply updated their CLI in tandem. I still can't use 2FA to publish because their CLI simply cannot handle it.

On the contrary, Opus 4.5 is the best agent I’ve ever used for making cohesive changes across many files in a large, existing codebase. It maintains our patterns and looks like all the other code. Sometimes it hiccups for sure.

Unfortunately sim racing requires Windows (that's my last holdout).

As far as macOS goes, Linux is so good but I also like my peripherals to work for my job where I don't have time to tinker all day.

I don’t see any reason why Google wouldn’t abandon web features left and right, given how they do that with everything else.

I remember when they did this to pictures of the moon: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/03/samsung-says-it-adds...

Before anyone wastes a lot of time like I did trying to use the popover API: it is not ready yet. You can do very basic things in all browsers but positioning is still different and/or totally broken per browser.

Would love full remote play somehow so I can use it for team games with my remote team!

This is not a legible font. You can clearly see they did not distinguish uppercase o and 0 (zero) at all. Uppercase i and lowercase L are barely distinguishable. Classic font blunders.

It seems that support tracking websites don't know what this is yet. MDN briefly notes it as an option for `display` but there is no other mention of it.

Was hoping for a sandbox so I could actually try it!

The answer to the question is NO. Unless you don't care at all about your Apple account.

On the other hand, I prefer playing video games against AI because human skill disparity almost always ruins PvP. Though really I simply prefer co-op.

My favorite response to the unexpected "have we considered" questions are "no". I'm telling the truth, and often there is no follow up!

Where is it? What is it called?

DigitalOcean is such a dream to use. I also really appreciate all their guides for almost everything web server related.

I have health insurance. I don't feel like I get anything out of paying for it, I still get massive bills whenever I use it.

I personally don't find modals inherently all that bad, though they can definitely be implemented poorly. Does anyone have specific reading material on the problems with modals?

Accessibility doesn't even need to be related to any disability or unusual user requirement. A user-hostile website can be inaccessible even to users with perfect visual and motor functions.

Ah got it, thanks. I thought there was another kind of GitHub runner (like their "large" runners) that I hadn't heard of.

What are Depot runners?

Not to mention its ergonomics issues. I held onto mine as long as possible because I loved the capacitive shell. Eventually I had to ditch it though to keep my wrist healthy.

Are you talking about the linked website or Flock itself?

I'm using AI in-editor, all the models have full access to my code base.

On the contrary, I cannot use the top Gemini and Claude models because their outputs are so out place and hard to integrate with my code bases. The GPT 5 models integrate with my code base's existing patterns seamlessly.

But I think HN’s comment section is the only one worth reading!

I know grid. It doesn’t do what I want, so I don’t generally use it.

On the other hand, I only use flexbox and I think grid sucks.
