as a control fan, i agree. the art direction in that game is something else.

In a large city in southern India, our house would get water supplied one day of the week during summers. Our small one bedroom flat had barrels of water drums stored inside the house. We even had one in the bedroom.

I was 14 and I would go down to the street to fetch ground water and fill those barrels up. This was in 2014.

I would believe so. I have a custom DNS profile setup that redirects a few domains to a server I run. The server has custom SSL certs issued by a private CA. I the certificate installed on iOS as a trusted root certificate.

Everytime I'm connected to my home WiFi I would randomly get `peer closed connection in SSL handshake (104: Connection reset by peer)`. I have absolutely no clue why it does this and this issue goes away when I'm connected on mobile data.

Now I'm guessing that it is bypassing the DNS profile and resolving it using my ISPs DNS or some other way.

It’s confusing to me that the pricing says it’s per user if you self host the pro tier?

This happened to me too. I still use a MacBook Pro from 2015 mostly for watching videos. As you described, any time a subtitle appeared on the screen, the screen fluctuates in brightness / gamma levels.

I guess one other thing you could say is, I don't know if it's just me in my head, but I always feel that the cursor movement in MacOS is silky smooth.

This seems like a nice alternative in some way to me.

I never run docker commands by itself unless it’s really simple. Simply whip up a docker compose file and aliasing compose works pretty well for me.

It does. One effect of light passing through gravitational wells is gravitational lensing.

There is also Redshift.

> social experiment

huh well. stuff like this just makes me very insecure at times.

My partner is Swedish but she was born in Hungary I'm currently a resident of Australia but originally from India and plan to move to Sweden sometime later. Both of us speak Swedish are fairly integrated into the culture.

Maybe you're implying that only x% of the population must be born outside, non-ethnical Swedes.

New comment by jesse_faden in "Show HN: Kreya, a Postman Alternative"

jesse_faden — Tue, 12 Jul 2022 09:15:04 +0000

I have a love - hate relationship with Postman. Mostly because it’s super slow to use. I’ve been trying to find an alternative for long. But Postman has some nice things which it does really well.

1. Variables / Dynamic Variables

2. GraphQL introspection

3. Pre/Post request scripts

4. Collection Runner

Postman is pretty expensive for larger teams.

That makes it horrible to collaborate because then you’d just be sharing giant JSON files which can easily go out of sync between multiple people.

What remains of Edith Finch was such a great game. I loved it. Firewatch is another one that I would add to that list.
