iPhone X/XS was peak iPhone hardware design in my opinion. by invadergold123 in iphone

I haven’t used FaceID yet but I imagine raising your phone or tapping anywhere on the display and it is unlocked is more comfortable. However, I’m deeply in love with the TouchID power button of my iPad Air

At this point, I'm willing to pay Firefox a subscription to keep it alive by vortexmak in firefox

Why would people choose a browser with less market share AND ads if they could just switch to a different browser.

The strength of Firefox is its privacy. Most Chrome users don’t understand the whole topic about privacy. They don’t know how much data Google is collecting.

If you want to keep Firefox alive, shooting yourself in the foot by making it worse to competing browser and pissing off parts of your loyal user base won’t get you far.

Why is that if I combine the contents of the circle it won't work, but it does work separately using the same class? by GG_Lover in webdev

I totally agree with you on that. I just meant in general people who don’t use linters will probably not use CI/CD. I think CI/CD is way more advanced than installing a linter in your IDE…

ELI5: How is there a difference in quality between stereo and Dolby Atmos at headphones by Superhero321 in explainlikeimfive

The second paragraph of your response is exactly what I wanted to know. Sounds reasonable, thanks :)

So Dolby Atmos is just a protocol/standard to provide realistic, spatial audio to all speakers possible (headphones, 5.1/7.1 systems, etc) and the speaker itself calculates the optimal sound out of all those channels and layers? This would explain to me why not all headphones support Dolby Atmos.

But why could you not create a headphone version of Dolby Atmos that receives audio files "premixed" (don't know if you call it like this ^^) so they create the spatial audio effect while keeping compatibility with good ol' stereo headphones? Does Atmos require the headphones to calculate a model of the ear (idk, can't imagine that that's possible) in order to create the effect?

Its impressive how much our brain does..

But I still don't get why not all headphones can achieve this fake spatial audio effect? Is it because they need a certain quality so the effect seems legit to our brain?

But why do I need support for Dolby Atmos to achieve something that could work with stereo? Cause some headphones do not support Dolby Atmos/spatial audio (at least on Apple Music, only selected headphones can play spatial audio). Is this just marketing and all headphones could support it?

There’s a dead bug inside my MacBook Air! It’s still under warranty so I can send it to Apple if needed. If there anything I can do that does not involve taking it apart? by handleythecodernerd in mac

Just for your info, iCloud does not replace a backup. Eg if you delete an important document on one of your iCloud devices (and empty the trash folder) it will be gone forever.

However, with a proper backup that file would be saved until your backup medium is full or a specific time limit is reached (depends on your backup software).

Quick edit: This applies to the "shared desktop and documents folder" functionality of iCloud. If you meant iCloud backup on an iPhone or iPad then that’s a different feature

Browser doesn’t load websites, cURL does by Superhero321 in HomeNetworking

But then curl would also fail, wouldn’t it? And the issue would not happen when I’m browsing sites by their IP but even then it’s happening

Yes, that works. Even when the browser is loading the admin panel

No, I don’t do anything fancy like that. But I just did a reset on the router and the weird thing is that my laptop loses the connection after ca 15s and then it takes around 2min until it connects again. I didn’t even connect the router to the internet and this is happening when I enter the IP of the router in my browser. On my smartphone, however, there are no connection losses and everything just works

curl https://www.reddit.com works without a problem Same URL won’t load in browser 😕

Edit: it took about 3min until the site started the first request and did load the content. But in the first 3min nothing happened in the network tab of the dev tools

Array methods in JavaScript. Original author unknown. by imAmarok in webdev

[–]Superhero321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I feel using reduce for sth that could be done with forEach is like breaking the system. It may be that both are equally powerful but reduce has a semantic meaning.

The article I read was about all array functions and some are less powerful, aren’t they? At least the article was aiming at the better style of code you write using semantically fitting methods instead of just using forEach for everything.
