I'm writing this on a Pixel 8 and it's the worst phone I have ever used. The wireless chip is basically dead. And the battery can't make it to 3pm. Annoys the hell out of me that so many reviewers I thought I could trust speak so highly of this phone.
That's my library system too! I go to tualatin and it has a dedicated room for their makerlab and have classes every day for all kinds of stuff. Whenever I go in its pretty well attended.
Ha, I was just researching early email newsletter history and came across High Weirdness By Mail - A Directory of The Fringe: Mad Prophets, Crackpots, Kooks & True Visionaries. It's literally just subscription addresses and paragraph summaries like
> "A neo-pagan publication aimed mainly at neophytes, shamans, medicine men. And women...Drawing on numerous traditions, it provides almost a survey course in such diverse topics as astrology, runecasting, elemental (magic) the I Ching, > and Chinese medicine, 75¢ each, $8/year."
"These rules could force YouTube to give special treatment to a small group of organisations hand-picked by a government."
YouTube already skews results based on their own priorities and preferences (which is often for very good reasons[1]). Hilariously hypocritical that they're whining about a "for me but not for you" problem here.
It's just the social app being killed off, no? Wouldn't this line up with rumors that they'll soon let you create videos inside of chatgpt itself? I wish the actual video model would die but I assume this news is not that.
Hilarious that anyone would think the most literally average output of a thing would be capable of selling said thing. Of course it'll take more salespeople to sell a very mid product (not a comment on AI/LLMs in general, just their editorial applications)
I moved to a self-hosted Wallabag (https://wallabag.org/) after Pocket shut down. Not the sexiest but does everything I need it to. It has Chrome/Firefox extensions for saving open tabs.
Never get tired of seeing this resurface every once and a while. There needs to be a /greatest for posts like these (while still allowing people to repost them every so often)
That's fair actually. I wrote this comment a little off the cuff and rereading the article (it's been a while since I wrote it!) it's more like a strong plurality, so overwhelming was a bit much
I've been here since 2015 with the pm2.5 getting noticably worse from 2017 onwards. Hard to tie it to any degradation in health. I have air purifiers at home and wear N95 whenever I go out and it's bad. I know there were a few big studies around the prevalence of cancer rates that correlated with the pollution getting worse in China. But I'm not nearly qualified enough to comment on or vet those
I live in Bangkok and we also get inversions during the "cold" (for Thailand haha) season, the same time that farms slash and burn, making this the worst time of year for our air quality as well.
It's much better this year but incredibly hard to police since officials often don't have jurisdiction where the pm2.5 originated, before getting trapped in the inversion
It's just an id. But the audio is stored on the yoto itself for offline play.
And second the blank/customizable cards, that's what 80% of our cards are and my daughter loves helping track down and extract content. Biggest hits for her have been Roald Dahl and random science stuff.
