James Hoffmann on Andrew Huberman
  • Nice and thoughtful video, thanks for sharing! But he calls out two tweets of him, saying that Hubermann probably doesn’t really think that way, so saying he is a clown is perhaps a bit much? I enjoy his podcast a lot, but I fully get the point that Strong Medicine makes. Nevertheless, Hubermann gives a lot of very nicely packaged advice, on how to tweak here and there to get a bit more from one’s everyday life - but those tweets are really horrendous I must say

  • Is there no setting for Safari on iPad to auto focus the URL bar when creating a new tab?
  • You mean the iPad standalone and purely touch interface or with attached keyboard and mouse? Pretty sure that - with physical keyboard - Cmd+T opens a tab with focus on address bar, but I don’t have my iPad with me right now to test this

  • 3 place grid penalty for Lewis Hamilton for impeding
  • Perez is so slow, slowing down on an outlap is not enough to let him through

  • Utility Knives
  • Yes it feels secure. The magnets are very strong and the locking geometry has tight tolerances, so that on the cutting plane there is no movement whatsoever. And even when a side force is applied to the blade tip, the blade moves but remains engaged, because the two magnets in the back keep it in place. The only thing to look for is avoid scraping the blade edge to the inner side of the body - the mechanism is very “fidgety” but using it too much dulls the blade. You can avoid this scraping by pulling the edge away, but you have to purposely think about it. I even imported it to Europe from the US, so to you it will cost surely less than to me ;)

  • Utility Knives

    Nitro Photo Editor: new app for Apple devices from the dev of RAW Power

    Since I discovered RAW Power thanks to Lemmy and used it happily since, I thought I post the availability of this more advanced app recently released. With the uncertainty around Affinity Photo after the Canva acquisition, maybe it of interest to some :)

  • Tesla FSD vs Mercedes Driver Assist
  • No I think the level 3 is only available in selected countries, roads and speeds. It’s called Drive Pilot and it’s not the one they are using in the video.

  • Tesla FSD vs Mercedes Driver Assist
  • You got me here, wasn’t even aware that the Mercedes system is officially a level 2 with Steer Control that is supposed to do much better than seen in the video. I still think they should have compared with the more basic Autopilot, though, as this is what consumer report evaluated and the safety problems of Tesla’s lack of driver monitoring are there.

    I edit my first comment according to what I learned through the discussion :)

  • Tesla FSD vs Mercedes Driver Assist
  • I just care about proper and honest reporting. I’d have a Tesla any day over a Mercedes, for many reasons, but bashing systems based on the wrong assumptions is wrong. They are showing a line keeping assistant that requires steer control at all times (Merc) and a system that aims to be unsupervised - only that it should supervise and doesn’t do it properly, hence the lower score in many tests and the federal investigations in the USA.

  • Tesla FSD vs Mercedes Driver Assist
  • MB Driver Assist could be compared with Tesla Autopilot. FSD does obviously much more in that is a “Level 3 beta”, albeit always level 2 because of its development stage. The yet to be released Drive Pilot from Mercedes - the Level 3 automated driving system - could be compared with Tesla FSD, that is a comparison I would gladly see!

    Btw, the start of the video on the consumer report evaluation is about Driver Assist and Autopilot. The car in the video then runs FSD.

  • Tesla FSD vs Mercedes Driver Assist
  • This comparison doesn’t make any sense, why bother?

    EDIT: actually quite interesting in how bad the Mercedes lane keeping is even though with a Level 2 automation should do better. Misleading title and video beginning, because Consumer Reports evaluated Autopilot and not FSD.

  • Showcase FireflyLite NovMu V2 + X1L
  • The switch is out of metal, with LED indicator in the middle (blue as the idle color, red or green while charging I think)

    Hullo! Begging pardon in advance for the missing beamshots, here a couple of pictures of the latest buys:

    • FireflyLite X1L Elite with Cree XHP70.3 HI 4500K CRI 90 in black HAIII

    Build quality and LEDs are just awesome, they aren’t cheap but feel very premium. Feel free to ask any questions!

    I’ll try to get some beamshots if anyone is interested, I’m still not sure on the right place and setup.

    [MacRumors] Apple Announces New iPad Pro With M4, OLED Display, and More

  • Latest updates on Fireflylite X1L Elite

    Hullo! I just wanted to make aware of the latest updates on one of the newest Fireflylite flashlights, the X1L Elite (I am in no way affiliated with them and read the most info on Reddit, but it would be nice to kickoff a discussion on it here too).

    Yesterdays update includes these 3 emitter choices:

    • CREE XHP50.3 HI 5000K CRI90 2600lumens 120 000cd
    • CREE XHP70.3 HI 6500K CRI70 3500lumens 84 000cd
    • CREE XHP70.3 HI 4000K CRI90 2600lumen 62 000cd

    It's very strange that the 70.3 HI 4000K would output the same lumes as the 50.3: I asked them and Ivy (the sales representative of Fireflylite) says it's because it's the low bin K2, if someone were interested.

    There is as of now just one review by ZeroAir but it is expected that at least two other reviews will come out soon.

    I hope some of you find this interesting, I personally find the 4 new models that are slowly coming out of preorder beautiful and with solid specs.

    What are your thoughts? Did you preorder the X1L or other new gen FFL flashlights?

    My Keychron Q8 Pro in its final form
    • Keychron Q8 Pro
    • Gazzew U4Tx + a couple of Kailh Box Navy switches
    • MTNU Beige keycaps (lovely new profile, GMK made double-shot PBT, expensive - even more due to Colemak)

    I bought the keyboard immediately when I found out they made a BT version of the Q8 (I use a Q10 daily at the office), as I was looking for an iPad compatible one. Very happy with it!

    Matt3o on the first MTNU batch

    Just wanted to share the link to the livestream of the designer Matt3o looking at the first batch of the MTNU keycaps. They are made by GMK out of PBT, with double shot legends. The profile has been developed by Matt3o and GMK as a Cherry-height spherical angle shape. First batch is currently shipping out and has the WoB, Beige and Susu colorways.

    I find it really interesting and I don’t think I read anything here regarding this.

    New switches for my Q10

    For the Keychron Q10 I use at the office, Gateron Reds out, Gazzew Boba U4s in! 62g for the silent ones and 68g for the U4T on the F-row. Bonus Kailh Box Navys for the macro keys.

    Gazzew (Boba) U4: housing material

    Hullo everyone, I’m looking at silent tactile switches and for sure one of the most recommended is the the Gazzew U4. I see that the white “Boba” housing plastic has been changed to a new one with better discoloration resistance. Does anyone have esperience with the new version? Particularly regarding scratchiness, I have a tester with the 62g black “Boba” plastic and I wonder if the 65g new white plastic could have some negative acoustic impact. Not a big deal, but I couldn’t find first hand experiences on the web.

    Keychron Q10 grey with Gateron Red + GMK Dots 2

    Hi all, here’s my first ever mechanical board for work! Very excited to wave goodbye to the current horrendous membrane keyboard that sits in my office. I’m already planning to swap the linear Reds for a silent tactile, currently looking at the Durock Shrimps - given how much this already cost me, that will wait a bit…
