Is it even possible?

apazzolini · 3 months ago

It was, but Apple is no longer signing the old releases. (https://ipsw.me/iPhone14,4).

I downgraded about 10 minutes after trying iOS 26. Sorry to all who missed the window.

I have deep disagreements with my father on this subject. He worked as a federal agent for 30 years, mostly in digital forensics. He does not believe in the right to privacy in any of the same ways I do. Whereas I believe a right to privacy in your tools and communication is essential, he believes they infringe on the government's ability to catch criminals. Classic justification of "if you're not a bad guy, what do you have to hide?"

I just thought this was worth sharing, my dad was a tech guy (though not much of a programmer), the folks on HackerNews and related sites mostly have a privacy-first worldview. But not everyone shares this view, especially those who work in or around law enforcement. Civilians who believe in the right to privacy must stand their ground in the face of this.

Next time ask him if he'd be OK living in a glass house, since, as he's not a bad guy, he has nothing to hide.

It appears there's no versioning, nor even an upgrade path? I'm a fan of DHH but I think actual distro maintainers do a better job of this.

This isn't true at all, it uses a Rails-inspired migration system: https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/tree/master/migrations

So many people miss the point of tmux.

The only reason to still use tmux (or screen) is because you use remote sessions. All modern terminal emulators are already capable of doing tabs and panes (okay, maybe not sessions, but some can locally). If you're using tmux for this reason, stop. Go pick up a modern terminal like ghostty, Alacritty, or WezTerm.

But why tmux still exists today is because people are working on computers they aren't sitting in front of. Because I don't want to have to be running nohup or detaching, moving to the background, and resetting the session so error messages don't appear in my active instance. Hell, technically I can do this with vim and get something pretty similar to tmux by using the terminal. But that's a pain.

Tmux is for *terminals*

Do you think it's possible that someone might have a different workflow from you and tmux fits their use case in a way you haven't thought of?

Set up uBlock Origin (maybe Lite will do, too). Right click → Block element... → select whatever you don’t want to see again (and maybe tweak the CSS selector).

apazzolini · 6 months ago

As of June 2025, the CSS selector for the AI overview in Google search results is `.hdzaWe`.

The S in MCP stands for security.

This filter broke twitch for me. I had to create custom rules for twitch if I wanted to use it with this filter enabled.

apazzolini · 7 months ago

Would you mind sharing those custom rules?

The best way I've found to remove AI summaries from Google results is appending `&udm=14`.

I'm so distracted by latency that I run my macOS with vsync disabled 24/7 (through Quartz Debug).

When I used to use Windows 10+ years ago, I had decent luck using xming + cygwin + Cygwin/X + bblean to run xterm in a minimal latency/lag environment.

I also launch Chrome/Spotify/Slack desktop using:

$ open -a open -a Google\ Chrome --args --disable-gpu-vsync --disable-smooth-scrolling

apazzolini · a year ago

Out of curiosity, have you tried a 144hz monitor on macOS with vsync enabled?
