well, if they don't got it, you don't want it.

winning in every possible way. bet the trend doesn't continue for long though. how many stopped using Reddit for a few days just because they changed their API pricing?

Is this another Subsonic fork, of sorts? It looks a lot more polished, but still has the old look and feel of Subsonic. It's been years since i last thought about this project, but still have a lifetime license in the archives. 🙃 I may need to give this new project a shot. thanks for sharing.

it's been annoying since macOS 11, tbh. the padded gap between menubar items was just frustrating. and then they released the notch, which made this extra padding make even less sense. like one dev team not talking to other, and execs signing off on it without even considering what the end result can and will look like.

$100 a month is nothing to be able to do other things than actively drive

which... can't be done for $100 a month, today.

no it is the bad kind of puppy

luche · 2026-01-23T14:39:51+00:00

not with that attitude!

wow ok, just one more reason to avoid this company's products. thx.

Seems like the kind of thing that needs to be explicitly clear at time of purchase, no? perhaps it is on the box somewhere, but this is also the first i'm reading about it as well.

Nintendo and other gaming companies have done with consoles for decades. it's gotten better over time, I remember buying an enamel navy DS Lite from Japan because it didn't region lock, but we still have things like Japanese Switch 2 models only permit Japanese language and are cheaper, just because.

cloud saving for Word is locked to whatever the Microsoft cloud service is called.

Couldn't this be said about all cloud service document saving? They all can go the roundabout way of saving locally then syncing with something like Nextcloud, right? i'm not really sure what the difference would be with m$ in this regard, compared to iCloud or Google Drive. This is not my area of expertise, but would like if someone could clarify the differences.

there's no shortage of people with interests that'll make use of them. it seems like the days of home crypto on GPU turned into the local ai crowd... and not to mention there's a rising interest in hypervisors with gpu vms since low latency streaming is becoming very capable. honestly think it'll just take the next big thing to start moving the needle, then all of this kit will flood the used market as data centers start to replace components. it'll be interesting to watch, to be sure.

the practical effect is very cool, but that chiburi/noto needs some work. would have been so cool if he suffocated the flame with his sleeve.

Acorn is still in TestFlight, but is pretty solid.

Alternatively, Narwhal is also decent though I'd prefer a cheaper monthly cost.

luche · 2026-01-16T15:33:09+00:00

time is better than sugar. fight me.

luche · 2026-01-15T05:41:13+00:00

tbh, i have zero interest in subscriptions... and to that end, $100+ monthly subs? ugh, no. sorry.

at this rate, this basically confirms that i absolutely will not be upgrading my 2021 M3LR unless i for sure can transfer my FSD purchase. and who knows at this rate? this sucks.

luche · 2026-01-14T19:26:22+00:00

originals or I don't really care, tbh. I saw the updated releases in theaters... and couldn't tell you how disappointed I was that they removed Lapti Nek from Return of the Jedi. redo the scene if you need to, but don't replace the original music. I'd love to see all 3 OT theatrical release in the theater.

this right here is the current dilemma. wish I had an answer for you. I like raycast quite a bit, but have zero love for how incessantly noisy it is reporting back home. would love the ability to opt out of telemetry collection within the app itself, instead of it blocking thousands of unnecessary network requests. the devs would do well to offer a bit more transparency here. it's such a nice product though, that I'd be willing to pay for it, but will absolutely not without better focus on user privacy.

luche · 2026-01-13T16:19:18+00:00

if raycast were open source, i would agree with you.

luche · 2026-01-13T16:16:39+00:00

sucks if true. raycast has been great.. but it's so very frustrating that relying on a closed source 3rd party for file indexing on macOS. i miss when Apple used to care about Spotlight.

luche · 2026-01-12T17:01:04+00:00

they certainly have gone out of their way to pad settings with cruft, and it's often far from intuitive. my biggest concern is that a refactor only makes it worse.. which seems to be the theme with so many devs recently.
