For those of us that live in a cold climate, counter butter isn't very spreadable during the winter. However, ghee is perfect for this application.


Same here. On my Android phone running Chrome, that page causes the browser and system UI to hang.


I'm the same way (switch between Linux, MacOS, and Windows) and use Karabiner-Elements on Mac to remap keys and standardize shortcuts.

I have the same problem. I build different modes into my keyboard via QMK that I can switch via special key combos. It works okish, with the exception being that modifiers just work differently on Mac with Cmd not really cleanly mapping to Ctrl — don’t you find this annoying?


I've found Chris Gammell's (Contextual Electronics) KiCad tutorials to be very practical and informative.

Probably this won't actually be visible to you since it's likely buried all to hell by now, but just in case someone comes along and finds this:

yeah this was great starter material thanks :)


If an app needs to connect to a Wi-Fi AP on the appliance, you have to allow location since having access to the Wi-Fi scan of networks that are in range can allow for some coarse geolocation, thanks to open source SSID databases [1]. I wish Android and iOS would add functionality that allowed an app to connect to a known SSID without access to the scan because the permission requirement is rightly off-putting.

Would that really help that much? If you know the user's approximate area, e.g. by IP address, and their SSID is unique in that area, than if the app says to the OS "please connect to this SSID if it's available" and the connection happens, the app now has your location.

I suppose that's a case for making location access more granular, not leaving things the way they are. But I bet people doing UIs for Google and Apple won't do that because the average user doesn't understand the possible location implications of giving away your SSID.


I could be wrong but I don't think this is the case?

Even after enabling the Location Services access, I still had to manually connect to the appliance's AP through the iOS Settings app.


I see the banner in Android.


fwiw I do not see the banner on android. That being said, things break. Breaking in a way you can notice it's broken is good, but pobody's nerfect.


Does this include MVNOs that use AT&T's network such as Net10?


According to Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), 15-20% of people infected require hospitalization. If this becomes widespread, it will overwhelm the US healthcare system. If that happens, anyone who needs urgent care for any reason, has fewer resources available to help them.


In the official reveal trailer, they seriously have the actor take out their phone and walk backward into the road while looking at their phone. Who cleared that?

There is a lot of promising and terrifying work going on in this space.
