Precisely. Ad and user data supported products will always balance making their users happy, with making their paying customers happy.

If you’re looking for a new search engine, I’ve been using paid search provider, Kagi.com, for the last few months. They’ve been great.

Thanks for answering my question. This makes sense.

So why work there in the first place? Why bother with a strike? Quit and work some place with better conditions.

What does this even mean?

This is sweet. Now I can upgrade my old Mac! How have I never heard of this before?

Sublime is quite nice. It’s fast and lean, but also supports LSP plugins, so you get the same language tools as VSCode. I’m also trying out https://Zed.dev. It’s similarly lightweight, but has a lot more built in (with no plugin support). It’s still in beta though, and a little rough around the edges.

I didn’t think that book lived up to the hype. But maybe I just didn’t get it.

The only Matter devices I’ve seen so far don’t support Thread, but work over WiFi.

Cool. I didn’t realize Thread was it’s own radio standard, and separate from Bluetooth. Makes sense!

To be honest, as long as my appliances don't have a shorter life, I don't have to use extra soap everywhere, and I don't have scale build up or hard water stains, that's all that really matters.

That's neat. How much do they change you? Does the salt just get released into the environment at their facility instead at your home?

With Cloudflare as the registrar, you can’t change the name server for the root domain. It locks you in to Cloudflare’s NS.

Sorry! I created the reply on MacOS and provided MacOS links. I didn’t realize the iOS apps are different. But they do exist!

not arguing, but what do you use instead (other than your local book store)?

Tangential question for people browsing this post: would you recommend a different Linux distribution over Debian and Ubuntu for OP? If so, which one and why?

Studies say creatine supplementation can help reduce the impacts of sleep deprivation. There are also some mushrooms that you can get in supplement form that help get your brain working.

Sure, if there’s a free trial (Kagi has one). Though if it’s from you, probably not 😉
