Had a similar experience with a Tuxedo InfinityBook Pro 14 Gen 6.

In my case I spent 1,850€ (~$1,990) and ended up buying a ThinkPad P14s, couldn't be happier now.

So if you want to opt out, there's no setting to switch, you need to send an email with a specific subject:

If you like Magic The Gathering card playing game, avoid Forge (Desktop + Android) because it is open source (made in Java) and it has all the cards, gameplays, you can build your deck or choose from a huge list of ready-made ones and play against the AI and online up to 4 players in the same game I believe.

Thank you for the detailed explanation, it's not my specialty yet really fun to scratch a bit of the surface in other aspects :)

Great project! Thank you for building it.

If the UI was simpler and more "Apple-like" (hate to say this) I could convince my non-tech coworkers/family/friends to use it.

Also, could you auto detect the other peer's OS? You could skip an extra step and UI element. Do you need it to know which WiFi bandwidth to use?

I've had similar issues.

At a few months old, the laptop (a Tuxedo InfinityBook Pro 14 Gen 6) couldn't hold a meeting.

Their customer service suggested I disabled the graphics card and to throttle the CPU, converting a $2000 laptop into a $1000 one spec-wise.

After a year and a half, I've just moved to a Thinkpad at half the cost and I couldn't be happier.

I wanted to support a smaller company rather than Lenovo but that's how it is, there where many other nuances I had to deal with (2 dead pixels, awful sound, microphone was meh, TuxedoOS started giving me kernel problems every update...).

I understand this is more tailored at communities and such (being the Business plan the last in the tier), but for Linen to be a Slack alternative we'd need App integrations (Google Calendar, Jira, etc) as well as other features such as to send scheduled messages, snooze/bookmark incoming messages for later, a strong channel administration/management, and a few other features that increase productivity and we can't live without.

As I said, businesses are probably not the main target customers for Linen so it's completely understandable, I would've loved it though. Great work!

I can get notified with this link (in spanish, though): https://www.nokia.com/phones/es_es/nokia-g-22/buy?sku=101S06...

You're right, I guess I'm still thinking on a few experiences I had way in the past when the Internet was still early and contacting them was a waste of time: they couldn't understand you nor had the time to do so. It's true they now have many more resources and experts in their departments and, as you say, may at least give some good advice on what to do during the panic stage to try and at least mitigate it. Providing them with logs and proof would have been a good idea too.

Oh my, the attack caused so much wasted time and stress that it's still haunting me and the team, specially when thinking that it may not stop there and the attacker/s is just waiting for the next chance to hit us. The days after the attack the first thing I did after waking up was check the servers to see everything was safe. And our roadmap was severely affected too, prioritizing many security features we had in the backlog.

Thank you so much.

Glad to hear there's hefty sentences, many attackers don't realize how much damage they're doing and all the stress and effort that goes into trying to mitigate such attacks.

Thank you!

I would be very grateful if you could share any info about this.

Our small company's site got DDoSed a month ago and we just let it pass since we're not too convinced that the authorities will take us seriously. We don't even know where to start, just saved the logs with a few hundred random IPs from different countries hoping some day we can do something about it...

Is there a way to import data from Postman?

Looks great BTW.

Looks really nice actually!

How do they fund development? Nagging about their icons8 subscription?

I've been using tmate for quite a while and it works great, minimal setup needed.

Can anyone shed some light on the pros/cons of each?

Thank you tored, it even supports WebSockets :-)

Wow, that was so on point.

> Somewhere right now some poor developer inherits a Angular 1.1 project built with gulp.

That hit hard. I was reassigned to an old project from 5 years ago with an archaic framework, to refactor all the code to the "new shinny JS framework". Ironically, I was in the team that built it 5 years ago. It is dreadful. Rinse and repeat.

I feel like I'm doing something wrong when I advocate against projects that need 50,000 files and a 2-minute build when you could just do with HTML/CSS, native JavaScript and a simple CRUD backend.

> how come I can trivially change brightness on a laptop monitor but none of my desktop screens?

In Windows I'm using a free app called Twinkle Tray that sits right in the Taskbar and you can use the mouse wheel or click it to increase/decrease the brightness. In Mac I use Brightness Slider, also free. These apps have been life savers!

I will earn $5 this month.

It's peanuts compared to Adsense and other income streams but you can monetize channels you can't do traditionally such as Twitter, GitHub, Reddit... which is interesting.

Hopefully it'll become more popular. As a consumer, the idea of having a monthly budget that gets divided across every creator you spend your time on is great and fair, which makes the Internet a bit more beautiful.

I'm not sure I want my e-mail stored in government servers...

Yet I don't like private companies storing it...

And it's too complicated to manage on my own. Damn.

Thanks to your Colin for replying back, I've sent you a Feedback message with extra info hoping it helps. Keep it up! :)

Love your mission, really hope you can build something competitive enough to make the internet more distributed.

I searched for one of the keywords that rank one of my blog posts on top in Google and it shows someone that copied my article word by word -years later- instead of my site.

Not sure how the algorithm works but you may want to look into original sources and copycats. In this particular case it's not a critical issue (just me, some random guy, losing a visit and ad revenue) but at a larger it could be more serious.

I also developed my own version of it and launched it many years ago!

It was extremely simple on purpose, you had two views:

- List of people: sorted based on when you needed to get in touch with them

- The profile: add notes (with a contact more/less often when submitting) and choose social circles (by closeness: Family, Close Friend, Work, Acquaintance... or by situation: Golf Club, Gym, Chess...)

Based on the circles, notes, ratings, etc. the App organized them from top to bottom on a "Who should you contact now". It was cool.

As I grew older I used it less and less and ended up retiring it. It helped me become a better person by internalizing the importance of remembering names, hobbies, FORD method (Family, Occupation, Recreation and Dreams) and improving my small talk or breaking the ice.

If you've never used a personal CRM and you struggle to maintain and nourish relationships I highly recommend you to try something, either Monica or what someone suggested of having text files, a spreadsheet, notes...

Amazing, thank you!

Is there something like this for Bootstrap?

Can you share your setup? I love VS Code and it would be great to optimize my workflow.

There's the risk that Google will ban your account as it has done previously to some users, losing access and data hosted in their ecosystem (Gmail, Docs...), that's the thing that scares me the most. But yeah, Vanced (and the new YT Music) is amazing.

Pretty much yes... But I find it scary, specially after they got a $150M investment from Tencent (a huge Chinese company). Ironically, Reddit is blocked in China.

I'm not sure about the ramifications of all this but it does sound scary and anything could be happening behind the scenes.

It will index those pages but it won't pass any "juice" (aka reputation).

You would use the rel="noindex" to tell Google not to index that page.

> Hyperventilation followed by breath holding is what free divers do

Just a quick note that it is not common to hyperventilate when free diving since it is extremely dangerous.

Hyperventilating makes it difficult to feel the amount of CO2 (and consequently oxygen) remaining in your body and easily leads to black-outs.

We try to save on costs so only go for the bare minimum:

- Email - CRM - Billing - Server hosting
