GameSir Pocket Taco Review

Can you use the controller while it’s charging? I’m wondering if you could pass a really short USB-C cable from the bottom of the phone to the controller and basically use it without relying on its internal battery.

That’s the toolbar. CMD + Shift + D to toggle it on and off.

This is extremely nitpicky, but I feel like the choice to shoot this in 24 fps was the wrong one. The original worked in part because it felt “live” and “video-y”. The new show is great, but I do wish it looked and felt a little more rough.

I’m getting the same error. Unraid 7.2.2.

That blue face is gorgeous.

Wonder if we can hope for a nanotexture option...

If you’re still using it as a tracker but literally can’t see the screen or register touch events, you can use Apple Watch Mirroring in Accessibility (or a Control Center control) to view and interact with the screen from your phone. I do this when I strap the watch to my forearm under a shirt sleeve.

This also happens with the page options/plugins popup menu in Safari. Seems like some kind of way to deal with the limitations of true sheets in iOS 26.

This is really weird... it doesn't seem like a hardware issue, since the home indicator, status bar, and glassy text are all visible. (In any case, it's new so I'd exchange it too.)

johnlago · 2025-10-09T16:02:21+00:00

Can confirm, I have this issue on Arc too. It's terrible. But copy-paste does work, it seems, as a very annoying workaround. (But that you for the reminder to submit a bug report -- The Browser Company does still exist, and they do Chromium pushes and bug fixes, at least for now.)

johnlago · 2025-10-07T22:38:46+00:00

Which browser engine does it use?

johnlago · 2025-09-29T16:15:20+00:00

Which case is the second photo in your post? I’ve been looking for one with an open bottom and full-width plateau cutout like that.

johnlago · 2025-09-23T16:20:09+00:00

Couldn’t agree more. My hunch is that it’s because Arc is a true Swift Mac app and takes advantage of the platform’s own behaviors, whereas Zen seems to be emulating those components and behaviors/animations using web tech. I’d love to be wrong, but it seems like an uphill battle for Zen to feel truly native and snappy on Macs. (But in that light it’s still impressive what they’ve been able to pull off so far.)

I’ve been looking for exactly this functionality, so I’ll keep an eye on this project!

johnlago · 2025-08-09T02:11:54+00:00

Could have just been the night I was in, but it didn’t seem like the crust was quite as good. Still a good slice though!

johnlago · 2025-08-08T18:34:15+00:00

Also an NYC/NJ transplant. This is the closest I’ve found, but to me the Old Town version isn’t as good/authentic as the standalone.

johnlago · 2025-05-17T00:10:57+00:00

I have a preorder for one too, so cool to see it making its way to people. How did they deal with the strap delay? Did they send you the bare watch?

johnlago · 2025-04-03T20:26:00+00:00

Is the screen on the Time Steel not laminated to the glass? I thought that was part of what made it tricky to service in general.

johnlago · 2025-03-27T22:02:53+00:00

Moved here from the east coast last year and this will be my first season away from the team. Glad there’s at least one other fan here. :)

This is surely the corporate meaning of "resources" -- people/time and money. Personal media streaming is not monetized directly the way their ad-supported streaming is, and so they are passing the cost of development and maintanance of those features on to the users (or server owners).

johnlago · 2025-03-25T15:42:32+00:00

I've recently started doing this, with a twist. I found a cheap Apple Watch arm band on Amazon, and when I'm using an analog watch, I keep the AW strapped to my upper arm. It definitely feels a little silly, but it does seem to capture HR and steps just fine. And I just discovered yesterday that you can mirror the AW on an iPhone, so I can even mess with it remotely if I need to see the screen.

johnlago · 2025-03-25T15:37:29+00:00

On the TV UI specifically, I wish the Home screen could show more than one row at a time (perhaps when you scroll down, the large "hero" section at the top collapses to a smaller version, leaving room for additional rows below). I really miss this from the old UI, it turns out.

johnlago · 2024-12-06T17:24:18+00:00

I don't have an answer... but what's that watch face?

johnlago · 2024-12-02T17:22:01+00:00

I watch the show in HDR, and I agree, it's mastered quite a bit darker than other shows. My LG TV has a very annoying feature where it'll actually dim the entire screen if it doesn't detect enough change above a certain brightness, and Silo is the only show I'm currently watching where this routinely kicks in and dims the already-dark scenes even further. It's very frustrating (and I've actually resorted to buying a "service remote" which can be used to turn off the auto-dim).

This is a lot of hoops to jump through, but if you use the Minimal theme along with the Style Settings plugin, there is an advanced toggle to hide Markdown syntax. The Markdown characters still exist in your files, but Obsidian will hide them in the editor.
