Looks cool, reminds of a VHS box. Also nails the look of 70s decor that was everywhere when I was growing up in the 80s/90s.

Sounds cool, what's a good player?

I'm going to continue learning Rust by working on my TUI IRC client. I'd like to make some, any, contribution to keeping IRC alive. It was such a big part of my formative years!

I don't understand how adding WebRTC/Whip enables the bullet points you listed. Is the idea that we'll transcode locally and because of that, we can set up a cheap host? How does this impact the level of hardware we'll need locally?

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

It functions like a normal monitor. It connected to my Macbook air (M2) and Windows machine without installing anything. It has a USB-C video port, but an HDMI->USB-C converter works too. It has an 1872x1404 (4:3) resolution, which is why I used Miami Vice for the video. It would not connect to my PS5, which I think comes down to the PS5 only supporting 16:9/21:9.

Thanks for all the discussion here. I use cloudflared to proxy a bunch of small sites I serve from home. I will take a look a other solutions mentioned in this thread.

How is the app triggered? There is a graphic that makes it seem like the app can detect impulse buys:

iPhone 16 Pro Max $1,625 IMPULSE DETECTED

I think this is a good idea I'm just not convinced I would manually interrupt my impulse buys to pull up the app to stop my impulse buys. How does the app introduce friction to the purchase process?

I would love to see how insane a 10-14 hour Dune movie would be. No intermission I'm sure.

This is really cool. It seems very 'pure' in comparison to what my code history will look like. In 2040, a lot of my code will show how I used a bunch of libraries and frameworks that nobody uses 'these days'. This doesn't seem good or bad, just a reflection of the times.

I read the linked info and the comments asking why this was upvoted and it's a good question. The liked answer feels a lot like a text version of a TikTok video. It's an interesting fact that takes very little time to read and makes us feel that we've learned something about a interesting topic outside of our expertise. A TikTok example is a video about a 'little known' fact of quantum mechanics. The linked info gives us the same type of satisfaction we would get from a TikTok, but is on Hacker News because it's presented in a more 'legitimate' way.
