Show HN: Carrier-Explode: iPhone, Pixel and Galaxy carrier settings decoded
Showing off carrier-explode, one of my side projects that continuously archives carrier settings for all major phone brands. carrier-explode also contains decoders and explanations for all the common baseband configurations, etc. There’s still quite a bit of work to be done in checking my assumptions, but the tool has already been proven useful for a few enthusiast groups.

I’m Still Convinced the iPod Was the Perfect Gadget

The humble Playdate has become one of gaming’s best deals
The Playdate, Panic's tiny yellow handheld that launched in 2022, has slowly but surely become a great deal - which is a good thing, because everything else in gaming has only gotten more expensive.

Over the past few weeks, he's clearly decided […]

The AI is in the computer
It's gadget season, and a lot of companies are launching a lot of new products.
