I'd definitely be interested in a project like that, but I think customizing a PCB layout and sending it off for manufacturing would be too much for many people that would otherwise be interested in it. I think a project like that would gain more traction if it focused on designing high quality boards for a few popular laptop models (MacBooks or ThinkPads IMO) and making those available via on demand manufacturing and/or crowdsourcing a bulk run.

My friend has the opposite problem. The ISP's map claims to offer fiber service on his whole block, and if you type in your address they'll even offer service at that specific address. The problem is his block is at least 80% multi-tenant dwellings, and they'll only do new installs if everyone in the building subscribes. They don't just want permission from the landlord to wire the whole building at once to save time if future tenants subscribe, they're just not gonna do it unless everyone pays. In my friend's case, they didn't even tell him this ahead of time, despite explicitly saying he was in an apartment on the form he filled out when he attempted to sign up. They just "helpfully" change it to a request for DSL service. This was explained to my friend by the technician that showed up with DSL hardware only capable of a faction of the speed he was currently getting on coax. Obviously, he refused service. Then he got to fight AT&T for a few months over bills for DSL services he never requested, and rental for hardware he never accepted.

I've actually bought/planned to buy a few things that I was introduced to via YouTube sponsorships, but it's never been any of the generic YouTube sponsor merchandise. It's always something highly relevant to the topic of the channel, or even the specific video. Usually some sort of specialty tool.

It's no longer functional, but in the past if you appended the parameter t=wadsworth to a YouTube URL it would skip the first 30% of a video.

There's a torrent going around the usual places that has every [as] bump from the launch of the network to whenever they last updated the archive (a few months ago in my case.)

Yeah, I hear people repeat that a lot, but it doesn't entirely align with my experience. A lot of the grocery stores I shop at (mostly Kroger and other national chains,) have a cooler right up front with the most popular dairy/refrigerated items for the people that are just there to pick those up.

A bunch of stuff you will absolutely not care about. Unreleased music, rough cuts, behind the scenes footage, promo materials, etc. . .

Nothing about the content itself that would be interesting to the average HN reader, but I think this is the first time a celebrity has officially released a massive data dump like this.

IIRC, Emby has also had some GPL compliance issues. Jellyfin is a fork with of Emby with all the crap removed.

Rokid and Xreal have products that are more up your alley.

>I could not upload anything to imgur from my phone or tablet

What devices are you using? I upload to imgur from my phone all the time. Just do it from a browser in desktop mode, you don't even have to login.

Don't forget about birth defects. I went to school with a kid that was born without pinkies, but otherwise completely normal looking hands. You could still tell something was off when you looked at his hands, but it usually took a few seconds for it to register with most people.

Look under the heatsink. You're probably going to find 6x 2GB chips in parallel. The individual chips have a power of 2 capacity.

Now that you bring it up, I can't recall ever (knowingly) using a piece of Korean software that wasn't a game or baked into a phone's firmware. Does seem kind of odd considering how much Korean hardware there is in my life.
