strunz··on ChatGPT Pro
They're probably lay an adult, so I would guess not.
strunz··on All the data can be yours: reverse engineering APIs
There are so many of us doing this, haha. If you work at a big enough company or one with poorly documented APIs, it's just faster to reverse engineer the existing apps/UIs.

Probably because they'd potentially be blocking "legitimate" users
strunz··on I couldn't find a free, no-login, no-AI checklist app–so I built one
Ok, but that's not what they want. I love how many people say there's tons of these apps and none of them actually fit what OP asked for.
strunz··on Hi Google, please stop pooping the bed: a desperate plea from the indie web
Do you use Google anymore? It has gotten so bad, I regularly can't find things on it anymore, no matter how I search for things it will keep showing the same results. You seem to have blinders on. How do you explain the site getting less and less traffic over time?
strunz··on Jeff Bezos killed Washington Post endorsement of Kamala Harris
He lies about absolutely everything, so everything he says should be met with skepticism.

This has nothing to do with them being unable to support Republicans, it's them choosing not to support a Democratic nominee (which they've done for the past 50 years) because they don't want to anger the possible Republican nominee because the owner is afraid of retribution affecting his other businesses.
strunz··on The useful use of cat
It's definitely more obscure than cat, and even those familiar might be confused with it at the beginning of the line
strunz··on PEP 760: No more bare excepts
So does pylint which has been there forever https://pylint.pycqa.org/en/latest/user_guide/messages/warni...
strunz··on Otter Wiki: A minimalistic wiki powered by Python, Markdown and git
I love this, but so many of these are missing or have a half baked Annotations feature. I've been looking for something that that for years and none of them work well for this purpose. Mediawiki, Dokuwiki, Xwiki, etc.
strunz··on The Static Site Paradox
Wow it's amazing how noticeably faster than is that every other website. We really messed up the internet.
strunz··on You Too Could Have Made Curl
Say what you want about Apple but I've never had a problem printing or connecting a monitor/project (as long as I have the correct dongle :P )
strunz··on Juno for YouTube has been removed from the App Store
Octal is another great ios app
strunz··on Git-absorb: Git commit –fixup, but automatic
Commits should be a contained change that can be understood as a logical piece of history, and reverted if necessary. If you have to look at multiple commits for 1 logical change to the code, it's much more difficult to figured out what the intention was, if it was correct, and how it can be reverted.
strunz··on Orion, our first true augmented reality glasses
You sure about that?

Also lazydocker seems far superior

Loving this so far, thanks!

strunz··on Gaining access to anyones Arc browser without them even visiting a website
What kind of accountability is it when there's no personal consequences?
strunz··on Comic Mono
I'd need the bundle which is $150 and doesn't include nerd font characters
strunz··on Comic Mono
This font looks so nice, but so expensive! Wish there was a cheaper personal use option.
strunz··on Comic Mono
I really like his Codelia font; but I just can't justify spending that much on a font when there's so many free alternatives. Wish the was a cheaper non-commercial license.
strunz··on Atkinson Hyperlegible Font
Oof that k looks way too much like r to me

EDIT: the font the website uses, not comic-code

strunz··on Testing the Firefox Alternatives
Safari is just not usable without a Ublock or similar extension support. No, a desktop app ad blocker isn't a good alternative.
strunz··on CrowdStrike ex-employees: 'Quality control was not part of our process'
Carbon Black was, though now they're owned by Broadcom and folded into Symantec
strunz··on Judge dismisses majority of GitHub Copilot copyright claims
Because then you can blame it on Copilot instead of outright stealing
strunz··on 'Megalopolis' trailer's fake critic quotes were AI-generated
Google is also polluted with sponsored content and ads framed as search results which are many times not at all what you're actually searching for. It's totally unreliable for finding things these days.
strunz··on How French Drains Work
You should make them remove the gutter guards. If you're losing by that much water to your foundation, the gutters are kind of pointless now.
