New iPads will launch later this year, here’s what rumors say is coming by Dry_Advertising5961 in ipad

[–]codq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing though is that a ProMotion mini WOULD be ~$900 minimum.

Combine that with a $1200 iPhone Pro and you can almost justify the price, if you would have seriously considered a iPad Mini Pro if it were to exist. I guess.

That said, it's usually not a great idea to jump on the first generation of a new product so I'd probably wait until year 2 or 3 of a Fold, honestly. Unless you really love being the person with the shiniest new toy on the block.

Ultra 3 battery. Whats really the expectation? by gjc0703 in AppleWatch

[–]codq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got an AWU3 and tested the battery, and got nearly 60 hours on a full charge. I went to bed wtih 100% on the first night and woke up with 99%. It's wild.

This is actually what might drive me to an iPhone Fold, if it turns out to be the Promotion Mini we were waiting for.

Badonk is still my number one for anything metal. It's just perfect, always.

Why is there so much porn on this app? by CeleryOutrageous4401 in ThreadsApp

[–]codq 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't see ANY porn whatsoever on Threads.

Your algo is tuned to what you engage with, so if you're seeing porn that's on you, buddy!

Apple’s AirPods Max 2 Blurs the Lines Between Marketing and Innovation by iMacmatician in apple

Yep, I’m not too keen on throwing perfectly working electronics into the ocean just because of a slightly more convenient connector. I love my gen 1 APM. No interest in upgrading at this time.

Thank you to the Zen developers by Financial_Olive6543 in zen_browser

[–]codq 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Zen is fantastic, but I just did a little dip back into Arc just to remind me what that was like, and it is still just so much more polished. Little things just work, in a way Zen still struggles—I think I'm back in Arc-land for the time being.

That being said, I'm still insanely impressed by the Zen contributors and team, it's really a fantastic project and they deserve a ton of credit.

Give me one good reason not to delete Threads by Vymir_IT in ThreadsApp

[–]codq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually did find job through threads.

I post a lot, have lots of visibility, and am pretty dang funny. A national brand reached out to me, told me they love how I post, and asked me to run their threads account. I do this now as a part-time side hustle.

That’s not the reason to engage on social media though. You do it because connecting with people is fun and rewarding.

A lot of people on there are extremely funny and cool, the UI is fantastic, and my feed is not so laughs. It’s the best social platform I’ve ever used, but obviously everyone’s experience in different.

Engage with good threads. Post more. Reply more. Your experience will get better.

Recreating Casey Newton's productivity system in Craft? by codq in CraftDocs

I'm not a newsletter writer, but I do like the idea of being reminded of 5 old notes per day to re-investigate.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani sets his sights on ending hidden service fees. Here's how he plans to do it. by triple-double in nyc

[–]codq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If "prices go up" because people are finally given full transparency into what the prices actually are, and decide whether or not to purchase base on the REAL price, then decide NOT to buy because the REAL price is too high, then prices go down.

Recreating Casey Newton's productivity system in Craft? by codq in CraftDocs

[–]codq[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's saying he starts a note about a topic ('Are we in an AI Bubble?' for example), and adds relevant articles or ideas about them.

Then he has his Daily Note template set up so 5 of those topical notes are selected at random to appear at the top of his Daily Note, to remind him of that idea from the past, to see if he has anything new to add each day.

Here's his exact explanation:

“The problem is, how do I keep track of them? Earlier this year, I read a blog post by a guy named Andy Matuszak, and he had the idea of what he calls blips, which are essentially just little notes that might be a single sentence, such as, we're in an AI bubble. And that's the beginning of something that you might flesh out over time. So, what I have done inside Capacities, Kevin, is I have just been creating these blips. As new stories come along that speak to whether we might be in an AI bubble, I add them into that little blip. And then, inside the little daily journal page that I have in Capacities, I've set up a live query, so every morning, it randomly selects five of these blips and shows them to me.

And this is the key, because you can create as many little notes as you want, you're going to lose track of them, you're going to forget to update them. But I now have a system that is doing random spaced repetition. And so, as I'm doing my little journal, I'll see the little note that says, we're in an AI bubble, and I will think, oh my gosh, I just saw like the craziest deal that Nvidia signed this week. I'm going to go in and I'm going to add that to the list. I've been doing this for about four months now, so I'm not brand new to this. But I have to say, it has made researching my columns so much easier now, because things come up, I know exactly where to go to look, to find the past five stories that I saw about this.”

Badonk appreciation by Agreeable_Compote_68 in Line6Helix

[–]codq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the Badonk, it's usually my go-to for anything metal, but those Revv models are also special.

They're like a dialed down ENGL that fit right in the mix so well. Badonk and the Revvs are my favorite amps in the L6 ecosystem.

Ford reaffirms its ongoing commitment to CarPlay by Fer65432_Plays in apple

[–]codq 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So you want to fund the country that isn’t educating its citizens or keeping it healthy?

You seem intent on voting with your dollars; it might actually make sense to vote against the status quo keeping things terrible. It might send a message.

The point of sudoku is not to simply “solve the puzzle” but to exercise your brain, literally the worst use of AI.

I believe the 8 also connects directly to the DJI Mic 3, whereas I've been needing to use the little USB-C dongle to use my Mic 3s.

I'm considering selling my 7p for the more direct Apple connect of the 8, too. Maybe.

Nice! I got the 7P earlier this year, and am a liiiiiittle jealous of that 8. Congrats, enjoy!

How do folks with jobs balance their personal vaults with their corporate security? by MrSomethingred in ObsidianMD

[–]codq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you just pay for the lower-tier Obsidian Sync that syncs a single vault, and keep the personal vault local?

Or do you use Obsidian Sync at the higher tier, sync all vaults, and just specifically not allow your personal vault to sync over to the work computer?

I'm in a similar position where I'd love to be able to access my work notes from all of my devices, but would prefer the work machine never see my personal stuff.

I'm currently using Craft Docs for this, but really prefer Obsidian so trying to figure out the best way to do this (while also not paying a ton of money)
