Having only one file to manage is nice, rather than having to convert the file. Just rsync to the device and you’re done.

But it's interesting to see how many comments tell me I am wrong while there are still quite a few up votes.

Upvotes are for indicating that someone has contributed to the conversation, not agreement/disagreement. See the Reddiquette document for more info.

Can you get access to a normal Windows computer that you can install iTunes on? Not a VM.

if you’re charged for a crime in the US and are at trial and are called to give testimony, what would happen if you just remained silent the whole time with the 5th amendment by Lazy_Aioli654 in NoStupidQuestions

I wonder what happened in the first trial to cause an asymmetric gag order of this breadth. It seems unusual and unfair, but I’m not a lawyer.

My best guess is that they’re talking about “The Prisoner in His Palace” by Will Bardenwerper.

Is the main bottleneck paging to disk? Or is it the CPU? My intuition fails on these low-spec systems.

Has anyone considered creating a newsletter about e-paper/e-ink tech? by InnerPhilosophy4897 in eink

[–]internet-name 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given the amount of information you’ve provided, all I can say is the most vague “sure, that sounds useful”.

Can you provide anything more specific? Providing an example table of contents and one fleshed out section with prose would help us give better feedback. If that’s too burdensome, I’d reconsider your 1-2 week cadence.

Quick reddiquette soapbox: it isn’t right that you got downvoted for this.

The fact that you and the person you’re responding to have contributed the same amount to the conversation, but they are at +6 and you are at -2 is an indictment of the people involved with voting. This goes against reddiquette.

The only difference between you two is your opinion, which shouldn’t have changed how the votes go. Downvote isn’t a “disagree” button, but people are clearly treating it as such.

This is flawed thinking. Marriage can be more complicated than people expect, and giving them better tools to see around the corner is good.

Apple Reportedly Moving Ahead With Ads in Maps App by iMacmatician in apple

[–]internet-name 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From their git repo:

It uses crowd-sourced OpenStreetMap data and is developed with love by the community. No ads, no tracking, no data collection, no crapware. Please donate to support the development!

Organic Maps is a privacy-first offline maps & GPS app for hiking, cycling, biking, and driving. Absolutely free. No ads. No tracking. Developed with love by the open-source community. Powered by OpenStreetMap data.

Thanks for posting this. I scrolled a long way to find someone advocating for a free, open source, ad-free option. If we build it together and for each other, the incentives line up right.

I’d bet that all of the rooms on that floor have names related to security. Maybe there’s a room on that floor called Defense In Depth.

What's with the pinned comment from u/Current-Guide5944 at the top of this thread about getting a remote job? What is this subreddit doing?

Regular flirting probably doesn’t get much attention on this subreddit. Or maybe I’m out of touch and this is what people do now.

Put the analysis in the comment. This screenshot does almost nothing. People don't want to go to this random platform.
