• Nitter has more working instances than before the takedowns

  > Instagram is actively hostile to good ui. And that idiot, Zuck, thought he was getting a good deal when he poached former head of design, Alan Dye, from Apple. We were relieved to see him go. Our desktop OS is already making small improvements now that he's gone. Context: the guy doesn't understand fundamentals of UX and has made MacOS worse for years. [If you put the Apple icons in reverse it looks like the... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Glacier Mice

  At your service, I'm running this since 2020: https://www.mostdiscussed.com/ I also have a automatic bridge to Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@MostDiscussed If you have feedback please share it with me.

• Startup Shouldn't Have Merch

  Unusually I really like swag and I often wear it as a fashion statement. I still wear my Pinecone shirt and I recently bought a lot of shirts from Fox Racing https://mastodon.social/@UP8/117049900145791976 because they go humorously with my personal brand and if I can get people to laugh with me they are under the spell of this Huli Jing. The merch in that blog post though seems awful to me though. Like... - Source: Hacker News / 12 days ago

• Ask HN: Dear LinkedIn, do you want to do business, yes or no?

  That government id thing is a joke. I get endlessly harassed to identify my identity with CLEAR, which I have no problem with in principle, but I have the practical problem that "it just doesn't work" and of course there is no helpdesk. I can't believe at all that a verified badge would make any difference in whether or not LinkedIn users would trust this person: https://mastodon.social/@UP8/117079988454949322. - Source: Hacker News / 12 days ago

• The ethics of shooting people on the street

  My "street photography" involves getting consent at least 90% of the time but I practice an unusual form of "character photography" where I "go out" like this https://mastodon.social/@UP8/117049900145791976 to get people to smile. There are certainly the grey areas, like the time I was taking pictures of a race and somebody who wasn't in the race did something incredibly athletic and beautiful to (I think) avoid... - Source: Hacker News / 12 days ago

• Microsoft Needs Windows Lite

  There is already a "Windows Lite", and it's called ReactOS [0]. Except, the last thing we need is for Microsoft to own / embrace-extend-exterminate this. It's best that it's kept as an independent project, enabling developers to target the Windows API if they feel like it, while ensuring that they only target the Wine-compatible parts of it, which then enables their software to also run seamlessly on other... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Microsoft's "Fix" for Windows 11: Flowers After the Beating

  Kinda off-topic, but I wonder if a hypothetical OS that reimplements the Windows APIs (like ReactOS[0], but with perfect modern hardware support) would be better for end users than a Linux distro with a modern DE. In the past, this hypothetical OS would be a revolution. But I feel that, in recent years, this gap is not as big anymore and Linux supports way more apps than in the past. Such an OS might even not be... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Using GNU toolchain for Windows kernel-mode drivers

  Compiling into object code is easy but linkig is tricky. For reference of possilbe options, I used an example from ReactOS project. ReactOS is the only working (sort of) full reverse-engineered NT operating system kernel. It is a cool project. ReactOS Github repo has a collection of build options for kernel-mode drivers that can be carved out of CMake files. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

• YouTube is taking down videos on performing nonstandard Windows 11 installs

  Would this help you? https://reactos.org/ This is an open source reimplementation of winxp. I think they can even run drivers made for windows now. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
