I should invest time, so that you can sell more? Why?

That's how all platforms work, right? Apple, Microsoft, Android, Playstation, etc.

Yes, but platforms need to make a case for why we should feel inclined to make the effort.

Is the ROI from the potential audience going to be worth it?

Or does it help some people enough that I might want to do it despite no real ROI (i.e. I make the effort to make things not compatible with common assistive tech, even where there is little or no end benefit for me so it is sunk time in that respect, does this new platform quality for my time & attention enough in that way?).

Or is it simply cool enough for me to be interested in playing with it myself?

If none of the above, is there any other reason we should care?

This is especially true if building for the platform means building something new, not just making tweaks to ensure your existing output is compatible.

Not the original commenter, but an open and hackable wearable tech sounds like the exact type of thing I'd expect to see here on HN, no?

Yeah, forget that. Switching the system over to Linux access kills most of its features and is hidden be hind scary screens, including loss of warranty. It is only your typically greenwashing like, “ we are open source” marketing badge. The community is also almost dead, probably because of that.

Keyboard is also unusable, it doesn’t even have enough characters for markdown.

Yeah it seems like they have a great product that some spreadsheet toucher killed. A cryin' shame.

Set -i 1 to -i default or to one of your monitors, look them up with pactl list short sources

Back when there were MacBooks, it was MacBook (standard model), MacBook Air (lighter variant), and MacBook Pro (more expensive, high-performance variant). Sure, 3 is more complicated than 2, but come on.

If you really want to complain, you can go back to the first unibody MacBook, which did not fit that pattern, or the interim period when high-DPI displays were being rolled out progressively, but let’s be serious. The fact is that even at the worst of times their range could be described in 2 sentences. Now, try to do that for any other computer brand. To my knowledge, he only other with an understandable lineup was Microsoft, before they lost interest.

It’s a good time to buy one. They are all good.

It would be interesting to know how many SKUs are hidden behind the simple purchase interface on their site. With the various storage and colour options, it must be over 30.

Loads, I assume. But those are things like "MacBook Pro M1 Max with a 1TB SSD and a matte screen coating" versus "MacBook Pro M1 with a 256GB SSD and a standard screen". The granularity of say Dell’s product numbers is not enough for that either, and you still need a long product number when searching their knowledge base.

Why not (n)vim or emacs and some plugins?

I was thinking a plugin wouldn't be sufficient for extending it beyond a regular markdown editor, so I went for a full standalone app instead for better upgradeability, optimization, etc.

What changes for me as iPad user?

Does the account required mean I can’t use it offline anymore?

So can I finally import krita files? Especially those with vector layers?

I got an FP5, would not buy again.

Could you elaborate on why? This type of comment doesn't add any value.

We bought two FP5 with e/OS/ from Murena (for spouse and myself), and would buy again. Why wouldn't you?

I don't like how /e/OS claims everywhere that they support all those phones, when in all my experience they just can't keep up and I end up with phones that don't receive vendor firmware updates for 1+ year.

I considered purchasing it, but ultimately turned it down due to its size. What's the reason you're not liking it?

I like the size. I do not like the weight. I love the phone overall though. Love love. Good choice despite downsides.

I got a FP4, will definitely buy again.

Can you elaborate?

USA also got a household that barely lives on its debts. Richest nation? Probably china already.

> USA also got a household that barely lives on its debts

So did every empire in history.

> Richest nation? Probably china already

If you’re not guessing, the answer is a clear no. (The best source on this might be the CCP. They don’t claim parity because Beijing isn’t delusional.)

More fundamentally, the question was on budget constraints. Credit and cash buy the same infrastructure, healthcare and open-source software.

Simple, they are basically spam for this platform.

Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

Conservatives are champions of free speech unless it concerns Palestine and Israel. In this case any vague rule is good to supress it and impose full censorship.

it's a tale as old as time for people to believe the things they're in support of get censored while the things they dislike are over-represented. HN is genuinely relatively divisive on basically any issue, as humans we tend to be a bit blind to these things though.

Yes you can kill or degrade them if you drive them too hard, but achieving higher refresh rates and less ghosting is mostly about finer calibration and faster lookups on bigger tables
