systemz··on Ask HN: Did Fable disappear from your Claude usage and requires credits now?
I just did get "Agent terminated early due to an API error: Usage credits are required for this model"
systemz··on Splinter Cell veteran says realistic modern lighting has screwed up stealth game
Hitman WoA is pretty popular and well designed stealth game
systemz··on DoNotNotify is now Open Source
This addresses email notifications only. There is a lot of apps that would send you notifications that you want to see like your hardware needs attention but also sends some useless promo notifications
systemz··on DoNotNotify is now Open Source
I would pay a lot to have this on iPhone as I'm distracted easily due to my ADHD. iOS doesn't have as granular notification configuration as Android (topics?) plus Apple probably wouldn't agree to funnel all notification through 3rd party app.
systemz··on Bluetooth 6.2 – more responsive, improves security, USB comms, and testing
In short - BL uses much less energy than WiFi. It's harder to have speed and be battery friendly at same time.
systemz··on California law forces Netflix, Hulu to turn down ad volumes
if you want to automate pressing buton, there is something called "fingerbot"
systemz··on Stress test for parallel disk i/o using git and pnpm
How do we know it's not something related more to how Node.js handles I/O? Repo uses only JS
systemz··on Tidewave Web: in-browser coding agent for Rails and Phoenix
Looks cool, I'll wait for some sort of local LLM support eg ollama before buying it
systemz··on The effect of deactivating Facebook and Instagram on users' emotional state
Those are good tips but what to do when you are new in location and your family/friends doesn't have contacts with people that like your hobby? Joining new social circles isn't that easy for less social ones.
systemz··on Gmail AI Agent: Automate Your Inbox with AI-Powered Telegram Commands
Yeah, I don't trust AI magic either. Very precise manual filters can run out of date quickly, "AI" can be unpredictable. Maybe naïve bayes will be a middle ground?

I use and like SpamSieve for macOS but it's limited to spam/not spam. I would really like support for more categories than two.

systemz··on Gmail AI Agent: Automate Your Inbox with AI-Powered Telegram Commands
Telegram seems like strange choice but ok. I personally started to tinker with something similar - IMAP client which learns how you categorize emails into folders and helps with that. I started with manual rules and want to connect some optional automagic later.

I noticed that some emails are valid for only some hours and then it's in inbox unnecessarily giving that +1 to unread badge.

On other hand server side filtering works before arriving in inbox so you don't see for example, that parcel will arrive today. Next day you need to manually archive it. After 10-20 mails like that, if you are busy - half of inbox needlessly needs user action if you are into inbox zero.

systemz··on Ask HN: Escape from TCR? Family shared SMS
What I remember from my case few years ago, incoming SMS were handled to both SIMs. Outgoing SMS from my number didn't appear on second one (so shared SMS history isn't complete in that sens). I didn't use MMS. I think all those behaviors can be different, depending on provider config.
systemz··on Ask HN: Escape from TCR? Family shared SMS
Yes, I was suggesting just that. In that case, at least in EU there is an option when one number can be used on more than one SIM card. Then using second SIM slot on both phones you have access to that number. Incoming SMS goes to both number I think. Calls can be answered by any phone but faster to answer wins.
systemz··on Ask HN: Escape from TCR? Family shared SMS
Dumbphone and number from standard cell provider seems like a simple fix. No iOS or Android necessary.
systemz··on Show HN: Drop-in SQS replacement based on SQLite
Very cool. I needed something like this. Looking at short video in readme - I suspect adding live stats similar to sidekiq would make UI look more dynamic and allow quick diagnostics. Docs for current features are more important though.
systemz··on Microsoft removes documentation for switching to a local account in Windows 11
I'm wondering when PC/laptop OEMs will see that user unfriendly Windows is scaring off their potential customers?
systemz··on Changes to iOS App Distribution Fees in the EU
Even with those changes, yearly developer fee for even creating app for family is still required, right?
systemz··on PySheets – Spreadsheet UI for Python
Great idea, easy to use GUI for non-tech and Pandas for data oriented at same time.

Is there some similar project but selfhosted? I would be uncomfortable with uploading health related data to external service.

systemz··on Dehydrated: Letsencrypt/acme client implemented as a shell-script
Dehydrated and acme.sh seems different. Is one of them fork?

systemz··on An electric new era for Atlas
I was excited when I saw the title. Now I'm scared due to this hardware and being aware of LLM possibilities and mixing it.
systemz··on I accidentally built a meme search engine
Interesting, I knew about something similar but more focused on server side: https://github.com/simon987/sist2
systemz··on Show HN: ADS-B visualizer
Hi, thanks for sharing! Unfortunately besides empty map I don't see any visualization. Browser dev console is showing some CORS errors.

EDIT: Nevermind, clickhouse.com was on disconnect's ad blocking list which I used for DNS blocking.

systemz··on Canonical partners with Qualcom for Snapdragon X
When I'm reading about Ubuntu Core, I instantly think of this situation: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26464063

In my eyes Canonical isn't trustworthy or able to create good product recently, unfortunately. At least looking at Ubuntu distro. I had high hopes for many years as this was my OS when I started my journey with Linux. For some time they are consistently forcing elements such as Snaps or ads in terminal. They seem to make switching from custom Canonical janky solutions to "standard" solutions harder or remove this choice completely (like removing apt packages and installing snaps instead). User's choice and customization was the very first thing I was interested in Ubuntu in first place. Now I guess choosing Debian is easier - you just skip part of removing Canonical weird OS elements during deployment.

systemz··on ActivityPub/Nostr/At-Bluesky Compared
The larger instances, the larger moderation issues.

People are only people so fierce moderation will happen. With smaller instances "blast radius" is smaller and it shouldn't be problematic like in centralized social media.

systemz··on ActivityPub/Nostr/At-Bluesky Compared
ActivityPub isn't perfect but still seems better vs putting everything in one basket controlled by big corp (Meta's FB, IG etc).
systemz··on Sparkle: A software update framework for macOS
I instantly recognized screenshot in README.md Thanks to this thread I now know name of software that helps bring updates to a lot of apps I use daily.

Big kudos to all contributors of Sparkle, you all make our lives easier!

systemz··on What's that touchscreen in my room?
About monitoring water consumption, maybe using some webcam + OCR would help to recognize reading of a water meter? Then Home Assistant would be helpful to see charts with energy consumption etc
systemz··on Technitium DNS Server: Self host a DNS server for privacy and security
How it compares to let's say AdGuard Home? Seems similar https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome
systemz··on Google.com tests a news-filled homepage, just like Bing and Yahoo
Google is forgetting their roots. Maybe it's a good thing - competitors will have easier job to take search market.
systemz··on Redesigned Google Fonts website
linux package is downloaded once or every upgrade by generic http client, not that frequent vs when loading lot of different pages which use Google Fonts and gives some info from browser
