I have one observation that doesn’t seem to be reported on this thread. The home page is very heavy, loading several MBs of images. It took half a minute to load completely for me on mobile.


That’s exactly what I thought too when I saw “$12 annually”. Then I read the “$15 when billed monthly” and realized this is a monthly price. OP, please correct this.


Done


I’m replying to your comment in the hopes of getting a response. In the blog post, you said:

> There's so many interesting things to work on, things I have done before and things I haven't.

What are the things you haven’t done before, if you could mention them?


I didn’t understand how a user that cannot unlock FileVault helps. Can you please elaborate on this setup? Thanks.


With that setup on boot or after a long sleep one first must log in into an account with longer password. Then one logs out of that and switches to the primary account with a short password.


I wonder what exactly Microsoft did with “New Teams” that was supposedly written in Rust and uses the system browser engine or whatever instead of Electron. On release it seemed better, but now it seems as bloated, slow and annoying as the Electron one. MS Teams seems to have some incurable infection.

If I could, MS Teams would be the second tool I’d eject out (after Outlook and Exchange). But the company I work in is tied to MS 365 and will not give up on Teams and its useless cousin SharePoint.


Gold has a few properties: one is that it has had value through history and another is that it’s a physical asset, and because of these two properties, it’s quite liquid. It’s also a metal that doesn’t naturally corrode.

Central banks of countries hold various kinds of assets, including bonds and currencies of other countries. But bonds and currencies are just “paper”…or are more vulnerable than gold to shocks in certain conditions.

The disadvantage of physical gold is that it doesn’t generate any income by itself, as compared to bonds.

During times of higher uncertainty, people and institutions (including central banks) flock to gold.


Not GP and haven’t participated in this thread. I’m clueless on what the point in your earlier comment is. Can you elaborate, please?


I can try. Which part is confusing to you, the "nvidia will charge as much as it can" part or the "utilities won't" part?


Sadly, this site requires a login or registration with an email just to get the shortcut. I guess I may be able to find a similar one that’s just shared by someone on their iCloud storage.


Oh that sucks. Wasn't trying to shill for that site. I've got this one but I can't remember where I got it from and it doesn't work for youtube links. There's probably a better one out there if you look around.

> but the reality is that these OLED panels offer industry-leading image quality

Except in scenes with fire (like a campfire) or where some spots may have high brightness compared to the surroundings. The LG OLED TVs I’ve seen all go blank in such scenes. The TVs I’ve seen that have LCD panels don’t have this issue. It seems like the only way to disable it (after turning off power saving and a few other things) is to buy and use a service remote to turn off ASBL. From my online reading, it seems like doing this may void the warranty and probably have negative effects on the life of the panel.


I have an LG OLED and have never seen it go blank on any scene.

It just looks great all the time. Especially on scenes like you describe with a dark scene with bright highlights. Campfire scenes look great, space scenes look great. That's what OLED is best at.

If you're talking about ABL, I've only noticed the dimming on ads or powerpoint lectures that have fully white backgrounds, and I've been thankful for it at those times because I find all-white backgrounds too bright to watch anyway.


Same here. It just doesn’t work on Firefox Focus on iOS, even after I disabled content blockers.


I put this post in the SCP (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26998308) - will temporarily bury it until the author confirms it's working. Sorry for the inconvenience!


Hi Dan, thanks for the heads up. I have fixed the mobile bug and deployed the update. It should be working for everyone now. I've also replied to the users above.


Not working on edge on android either


Thank you! I found the bug causing issues on mobile/Edge. Just deployed a fix. It should be working now.


Seems to work on iOS safari!


Great to hear! Thanks for verifying.


Thanks for flagging the Firefox Focus issue. I've just pushed a fix for mobile browsers. It should be loading correctly now. Let me know if it works for you!


sorry, I will check it now!
