The trick would be to have each user register their own API key.

I thought that the audio from Spotify was all ogg?

There's still plenty of georestrictions on Spotify. As an Aussie, I see heaps of songs on play lists that are greyed out.

I appreciate that Firefox is listed before Chrome in the list of suggested browsers.

SEO strikes again!

Quick back of the napkin calculation shows that it is using roughly 17 petabytes (!) a month of bandwidth.

It's not Caterpillar doing this, though. It's Bullitt Group. They are the same people behind the Kodak phone. Thier whole business model basically revolves around licensing big brands that you have heard of, and making mobile devices with that brand stamped on it.

I can not recommend Contexts [1] and Rectangle [2] enough!

Voltswagen definitely made some noise. I think the other large car manufacturers have been learning a few tricks.

You joke, but they actually made a TV series. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Inspectors

I am using the Beta. Testing with both mode=1 and mode=2 causes a no purple tick to show on macOS.

Firefox does not pass the second test for me on macOS.

Also, wow. How fast is the new Firefox?

I thought the whole AMD team was the red team! /s

It needs to expire before 397 days, because otherwise the CA will not be valid, even if it is marked as trusted. https://www.zdnet.com/article/google-wants-to-reduce-lifespa...

edit: a word

There almost is! Instead of self signed certificates, use a certificate authority, and install that on the LAN's machines. https://github.com/devilbox/cert-gen

You can use macOS Server or Active Directory to push out the Certificate as trusted.

It's not perfect, but it's close enough for a LAN.

Cool app! Just as a quick idea, you might want to make sure you compress your 4.4MB bundle before sending it to a client. Splitting your bundle might help for the initial page load, too.

I think the grandparent is referring to this? https://lwn.net/Articles/845535/

LaTeX is more of a typesetting application, where Scrivener provides much more tooling around story telling. Scrivener provides you with tools like corkboard and outliner, which lets you have a place to store ideas and todo lists for what you are working on. You can rearange a chapter in your book by clicking and dragging it to the new location. The formatting is similar to Word or OpenOffice, in that, what you see is what you get.

LaTeX on the other hand (or more specifically, TeX) is a set of macros that will generate formatting for you. Usually, the output is a DVI file, but can also be a PostScript or PDF file.

LaTeX is all plain text. It only handles document processing, turning the LaTeX document into an outputted formatted document.

Edit: You can still include images etc. Pandoc allows you to convert between LaTeX and many other formats. What you can do with LaTeX is almost limited only by your imagination: https://www.latex-project.org/publications/2020-egreg-TUB-tb...

But if it's not Unix, what is it?

I'm sure having 400,000 twitter followers and being known as the creator of Basecamp/Ruby on Rails definitely helps. https://twitter.com/dhh

Why not just use AGPL v2, then?

But the code licensed as Apache 2.0 stays that way. The open code doesn't magically become closed source.

How did you come up with the 64% number?

They have not been for a few years now. I think the 2012 mac books were the last to have them?

DECT VoIP base stations are still very much a thing.

Yes, yes it has. The UI is still quite good, and doesn't seem to have the downsides that many Electron apps have, except for the amount of memory used by it (still much less than Slack or Skype)

I have yet to see anyone independently verify this, but to me it seems that Google fonts sends different versions of fonts, depending on the user agent.

Downloading a font and using it on a different operating system from where the original download comes from seems to make the font look... unusual?

It seems to be going well so far. I would say it's around 70% of the way there[0].

What's left is a few major runtimes (OpenJDK, golang is waiting for 1.16 to be released). Many of the packages that are not properly supported either require golang [4], rust [2], mono [3] or java to support arm64.

It's impressive the amount of work Apple has done behind the scenes get M1 support in many open source packages, [1] for example.

In Australia & the US, they have quite a few.

I'm guessing it was Samsung neutering the platform. They never have really given too much time to advertising the capabilities of the platform (for example, no displays in their stores demoing the "phone as a desktop" capability).

The Samsung DeX Station (https://www.samsung.com/au/galaxy-s8-accessories/dex-station...) is no longer manufactured which is a massive let down. It does however still work with the S10+, and I presume the S20. The ability send a network cable straight to the phone was pretty handy for a few situations.
