irasponsible,

A good article, a lot of those advantages I wasn’t aware of! I think DisplayPort unfairly got a bad rap as “oh, I have to buy another cable now” when it was new, but it’s obviously the better choice now. Although I still hate DisplayPort’s latching, makes it so hard to unplug cables in tight spaces. I’d rather old-style screws than the latch on all the DP cables I’ve used.

irasponsible,

Assuming you have a spare slot (and your laptop is designed in a way to make that swap easy)

irasponsible,

Is there any market research at all indicating that customers want 6"+ displays?

Unfortunately, yes. People who buy smaller phones are the people who buy a new phone less often, and small phones tend to sell worse than the big models (see S10e, iPhone 12(?) Mini) so don’t get renewed. Would be nice if they did.

irasponsible,

It’s a genuinely good security feature, but wrecks custom roms as a side effect (which I’m sure samsung doesn’t mind)

irasponsible,

That would make some things so much easier, imagine using python string formatting instead of excel CONCAT and ‘&’… but it’s running on the cloud, so going to be slow and fundamentally useless.

irasponsible,

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but isn’t that something entirely different? This is python in a cell of a spreadsheet, which could be really good, but what you linked seems to be for macros, same as excel’s VBA

irasponsible,

Python in a spreadsheet would be so helpful, abstracting it out to macros less so. Better than making them in VBA I’m sure, but still not the same thing.

I’m very basic, more thinking about stuff like using Python f-strings and string formatting vs excels formatting.

irasponsible,

I haven’t seen any of this in Firefox?

Meta discontinues Messenger Lite for Android, it will be unavailable after Sep 18. Users need to install regular Messenger app instead (beehaw.org)

I have not found any news article on this on a whim. Because my friends and family, I need to use Facebook Messenger, and Messenger Lite was a OK client - lightweight, no unnecessary features, etc., compared to the regular Messenger app....

irasponsible,

Yeah, there’s no real alternative here. Use messenger or Don’t talk to people.

irasponsible,

Yhe family plan is the price of 3 “unlimited” subscriptions, if you don’t need unlimited then Mail Plus is far more reasonable at AU$140/2yrs, for one person though.

I do wish they had a “Mail Plus Family” for up to 3 people, would be a good middle ground to get my family to switch.

USB-C confirmed for the iPhone 15 in new leaked images - Macworld (www.macworld.com)

We’ve known that the iPhone is switching to USB-C for a while now, but there was always a possibility that Apple would stick with Lightning for one more year. Based on the latest leaked images, however, Apple is all-in on USB-C for the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models, with USB-C parts for the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, and...

irasponsible,

They wanted to software-limit non-MFI usb cables, not sure if the EU will stop them in time.

France’s browser-based website blocking proposal sets a disastrous precedent for the open internet (blog.mozilla.org)

In a well-intentioned yet dangerous move to fight online fraud, France is on the verge of forcing browsers to create a dystopian technical capability. Article 6 (para II and III) of the SREN Bill would force browser providers to create the means to mandatorily block websites present on a government provided list. Such a move...

irasponsible,

Wouldn’t it end up implemented somewhere inside Chromium?

irasponsible,

“attention tokens,” wow that sounds bad in and of itself

irasponsible,

These laws exist in Australia already, Facebook and Google claimed they’d pull out of the country and of course they just came to an agreement with almost all news companies and life moved on.

irasponsible,

I looked into it, but EGPUs are still not a great option. All of the enclosures seemed to have some major flaw, and performance is consistently low.

irasponsible,

In the back of it, it seems to be a series of Matrix bridges github.com/beeper

irasponsible,

Beeper is Matrix in a trenchcoat, judging by their Github page.

irasponsible,

My worry would be who is funding it and how they plan to keep operating. Venture Capital startups will always betray their users.

irasponsible,

If you know the team, then that’s a pretty good reason to trust them. Only works if you know the team, though.

irasponsible,

Bernie Sanders

irasponsible,

I’ve heard good things about Kagi, but I can’t justify the cost (especially as its USD)

irasponsible,

even at US$5 a month, I don’t know. I feel like most searches I do are just to get to the website I already know the name of, and I’d blow through 300 pretty fast.

irasponsible,

I don’t think Red Cross is going off trademark law; using the Red Cross for anything but the Red Cross (same for the Red Crescent and Red Crystal) is a violation of international law (i.e. the Geneva Convention)

Recipe request: Incorporating duxelles into imitation ground meat patties

What I’ve found online is recipes for putting duxelles on burgers (or stuffing) or making mushroom burgers but what I want to do is mix the duxelles with the ground to make a patty mix instead. I’m not worried about the structural integrity (in that I know it won’t be great) and I’ll do them smash style in a pan. I would...

irasponsible,

hey, did you try this? how did it go?

irasponsible,

I haven’t seen any email from them yet, either it hasn’t effected Family Plan pricing or it’s a US specific change.
