Transaction balancing is now done in a more robust way, using local precisions only (like Ledger) #2402. Until now, a transaction was required to balance using its commodities's global display precisions. Small imbalances were tolerated by configuring display precisions for the whole journal (with commodity directives). Now, a transaction is required to balance using the precisions in its journal entry only. This means each entry can use the precision it needs, and balancing precision and di

Samsung’s TriFold isn’t here yet, but its main rival just got a successor

The first iPhone with all-screen display could arrive next year: report

The dream of an edge-to-edge iPhone display with no cutout could come true sooner than we thought. Per a new analyst report, next year’s iPhone Fold might be the first iPhone to move camera components under the display, thus offering a truly all-screen design. iPhone Fold expected to feature under-display front camera When Apple launched the iPhone X in 2017, it touted a “gorgeous all-glass design.” But as we all know, that design included a notch, which in 2022 shrank into the Dynamic Island.

Here’s why Apple’s cheapest iPad is actually the most practical model

As a techie, it’s easy to get caught up in the trap of buying the most expensive devices with the most features. And, for the most part, it’s still a problem. That said, I recently made the decision to switch to Apple’s cheapest iPad, the budget model with an A16 chip. I’m pleasantly surprised with how incredibly useful it truly is – while costing less than a third of an iPad Pro. iPadOS 26 I’ve mentioned it in passing before, but iPadOS 26 sort of ruined how I use my iPad. I liked how using m

The best smart home gadgets for 2025

Our favorite Google-powered smart display is the second-generation Nest Hub. It has a 7-inch screen, which makes it just big enough to fit in most rooms in the house. The size also makes it work well as a digital photo frame. You can set it up to pull in pictures of friends and family from your Google Photos library, and there’s a smart algorithm that automatically uses the best shots while avoiding the blurry ones. As you might expect, you can also use the display to watch YouTube, Netflix and

Now’s a great time for Apple to bring back this long-removed iMac feature

A while ago, Apple used to include a software feature with macOS on older iMac models. It was called Target Display Mode, and it allowed you to turn an iMac into an external display once your iMac was too dated to be a usable computer. The company got rid of it with the introduction of the 5K iMac due to technical limitations at the time – though said limitations no longer pose a challenge. As mentioned, Apple previously got rid of the feature due to technical limitations. After the company int

My phone is an ereader now

My phone is an ereader now I got a Kobo in 2016 after borrowing my mom's old one for a year before that. It probably is responsible for getting me reading again after high school. I used to be an avid reader, the sort of kid who would have to be told to put down the book and go to sleep, and who would then creep slowly to the bookshelf to pick it up again without arousing suspicion after the light had been turned out. I think I slowed my reading for fun as the work load of school increased, and
