And the exhaust gases are not a good thing to expose children (or really anyone) to

Even in walkable places you need transit. While buses are not the most optimal example of that, they are certainly better than private automobiles

In an uncontrolled crossing the pedestrian always has the right of way (North America and Europe at least). They should almost never 'wait' to cross

Player2 ,

By crossing I mean a crosswalk, some sort of markings on the ground

I'm not saying you should be reckless, but too often I see people be either uninformed or unwilling to exercise their rights. To be fair, I do write with something of an urban bias, where thankfully those kinds of speeds are much less common.

North America and Europe, I made an edit for clarity.

May I suggest an actual timer? Almost all of us already have one, it's even more precise, and does not require additional plastic waste. 7:30 makes a perfect medium egg every time.

Ventoy is very useful for diagnostics too

Companies only really have one reason to prevent their customers from taking them to court: they intend to break the law or otherwise harm their customers.

Textadept is also pretty cool, it's portable and FOSS unlike Notepad++

The OS is the worst part of the Quest line. The hardware is pretty cool but software completely removes it from consideration for me.

YouTube is finally cracking down on third-party apps that enable ad-blocking ( alternativeto.net )

The company’s team clarified that their terms prohibit third-party apps from disabling ads, as it denies creators their due reward for viewership. Although the announcement did not specify any app by name, it’s plausible to presume that third-party YouTube apps such as NewPipe, YouTube ReVanced, Piped, and others might be...

It’s like addressing a wound by mopping up all the blood and injecting it back into your body. Good luck.

Player2 ,

Pulling carbon out of the air instead of addressing pollution at the source is not like continuously mopping up blood instead of treating the wound? To me the parallels are almost exact.

Pretty sure they explicitly stated that it was just for entertainment. Who would come out of that video genuinely thinking that they recommended you to daily drive a Justin Bieber distro?

It looks like NAND and therefore SSD pricing is trending up currently due to some supply limitations. If you want to get some large drives it might be best to try to do it soon, or be prepared for a wait/inflated pricing.

This is going to change, ergo the news article

Wow hand wiring this must have been tedious, impressive! I got a custom board for just a 40% to avoid the hassle

France votes to ban ‘forever chemicals,’ exempting frying pans ( www.politico.eu )

The French National Assembly on Thursday unanimously adopted a bill aimed at restricting the manufacture and sale of products containing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances — also known as PFAS or “forever chemicals.” The MPs, backed by the government, voted to exclude kitchen utensils from the scope of the text....

Nonstick pans, though most of the harm is from manufacture, not end-use

Player2 ,

Both of these do require more maintenance and patience than nonstick, which will inevitably make some people upset

Cast iron and to a lesser extent carbon steel require special considerations for seasoning, none of them are dishwasher safe. Stainless steel doesn’t really need seasoning but is significantly easier to get high protein food stuck on than PTFE

For meats yes, for everything else no.

100% but many people don’t care about this stuff at all. They will happily toss their nonstick pan in the dishwasher, ruining it, and then buy a new one a year or two later when it doesn’t work properly anymore, or just suffer with it and conclude that they are bad at cooking. When you try to discuss seasoning, hand washing, and the intricacies of frying pan materials, their eyes immediately glaze over. Nonstick pans have the advantage of just working when you get a new one, and that is really appealing to someone with low cooking knowledge or interest.

Judging by the picture someone already has

I had exactly the same thing, and would come to my senses (for lack of a better term) every so often and be genuinely confused where days or even weeks had gone. One thing that has been really helping me is writing all the little things down such as what I ate or learned in classes as you mentioned.

I personally started using Logseq for this but basically any note taking application will do. The most important feature that I use is linking topics, for example I would mark a bullet point with and so on, which eventually organizes the thoughts automatically. It’s really nice to be able to just write and not even think about organizing it as that’s the computer’s job.

One of Mullvad’s Switzerland servers worked for me today

I've Installed multiple Linux Distros on my Editing Rig to see how well Davinci Resolve Studio works. Here are the results.

So a couple of weeks ago, I made this post asking for help from those who used Linux and Davinci Resolve, and their experience. To those who’s response was effectively “I use arch btw”, I hear you, but that wasn’t the question I wanted to ask....

Interesting, I had zero problems with the RPMFusion Nvidia driver on Fedora on two machines that did have TPM and secure boot. In fact, it was surprisingly easy.

Linux Note-taking app that supports CalDAV

Hi, does anybody know any notetaking app which supports sync with caldav server ? I am self-hosting a Radicale server which on android with DAVx5 client and jtx Board app works pretty well! I have searched on web but haven’t found any desktop alternative to jtxBoard yet which supports this protocol. Anybody using this setup ?

Player2 ,

Syncthing works very well for Logseq, I use it on 4 different devices and changes only take a couple seconds to be synchronized. The app even automatically refreshes the data when a change is made so you don’t have to worry about only having one instance open at a time.

Enjoy spreading misinformation online? There are valid criticisms against LEO constellations but Kessler syndrome is not one of them

Definitely a clever way to get a lot of publicity for a seemingly fairly major anticheat oversight. I believe that the intent wasn’t malicious, they could have done a lot more harm if they wanted to.

Doesn’t like a Spider-Man comic at all actually, it’s a Spider Man comic. Hyphenation matters!

I’m talking about the cover of the original comic. I know it’s actually hyphenated now but it is clearly not in OP’s picture

It’s about $300 million more than nothing actually
