That was interesting how they adjusted sizes based on adjacent letters. Good idea

The LED should be expected to outlast the rest of the phone by a large margin. That said, given enough units out there, it's statistically inevitable to get a couple with some issue that die earlier.
What you have to understand is that often a conversation is not really about whatever the topic is. Conversation is like a game and the goal isn't to win, but rather to play a good game with other people. If you keep blabbing on and on about the topic without letting other people play then you're ruining the game.
I believe you uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types"
But those envelopes are tasty...
All language is metaphor.
"Reddit refugee" is a metaphor that conceptually makes a lot of sense and sounds good to the ear. No one using this term is making a political statement about asylum seekers.
What about the past 250,000 years of lost music?
The article does a decent job of going into some of the nuance about the different ways the apartheid label might or might not fit things that are thing on. But in the end who cares if we can fit a class of actions into the apartheid label?
Why don't we just look at the actual actions that are taking place and discuss them for what they are. If Israel levels half of Gaza in intense bombing campaigns that kill tens of thousands of people, then we can see that and discuss what to do about it. Who cares if it doesn't fit the apartheid label.
I see similar arguments every day now where people are arguing if it's genocide or ethnic cleansing or apartheid or whatever. What does it change if you're able to cognitively classify a set of actions with the correct label?
Maybe if you justify your favorite label then you can condemn Israel/Hamas harder, but this doesn't actually change anything and it doesn't lead to greater understanding. I'd actually argue that settling on your preferred label actually leads to less understanding. That's because once you've categorized something to your satisfaction, you tend to become more blind to contradictory evidence.
For example, let's say we all agree that Israel is an "apartheid state". That label comes with a lot of baggage that's going to color our views of future actions. We might miss out on changes in Israeli laws or courts or political leadership that contradicts the apartheid label.
Better instead to try and see things clearly as they are instead of trying to force labels onto things. This takes more effort because labels serve as cognitive shortcuts, but the result is a better understanding of what's actually going on.
As I understand it, canal locks don't pump water at all.
When you're going downhill, you allow the higher water to slowly drain out of the lock, thus lowering you to the lower level
When you're going uphill, you allow the higher water to slowly drain into the lock, thus raising you to the higher level.
In both directions the water is always flowing from high to low.
Not enough context, impossible to answer this question.
This is amazing news
Yeah I've been wondering the same thing too, like what's the point? I've seen some devs try to use blockchain for tracking ownership of items, so you could trade/sell items to others and it would all be tracked and verified through the blockchain. But if you're playing a game that's hosted by a centralized server, then just use a database. I don't see any benefit for a decentralized blockchain when you're playing on a centralized server.
Meanwhile modern teabags leach microplastics into your tea when used.
In an emergency, unlocking a phone, accessing the dialing app, then dialing the correct number on a touchscreen all add considerable friction.
What if you're wearing gloves? What if the screen is broken? What if it isn't your phone? What if your hands are wet? What if the fine motor control of your fingers doesn't work well because you're injured/cold/burned/weak? What if you can't see well because of an eye issue or smoke...
Being able to tap an actual hardware button a few times can prove invaluable during these kinds of emergency situations.

Also since wood is made of atoms and you are also made of atoms, you are basically wood
This is so silly. What, meteors can't be made of iron, silicon and titanium?
Those screenshots are gold
Interesting, I'm trying it out now,
Thank you.
In the future you may also consider linking directly to the source article instead of through apple news or an amp link.
Also depending on where you live that's way too low. Median home price in California is almost $800k.

Almost like $500k is a good rough number used to make a point.
Do you feel the need to take a side
Wow that's terrible design
I'm sure that's a part of what's going on, but to claim that "this is all about oil" is highly reductive. There are many different entities involved with competing interests.
Hilarious!
AntennaPod is the best.
Are there any perovskite/monocrystalline cells in commercial production yet anywhere in the world? I keep seeing a lot of buzz for adding a perovskite layer to crystalline silicon cells, but I'm not seeing any in actual production. Maybe I've missed something?
Yeah they really buried the lede here. The big news is the claim that they can sell cultured carrot cells for cheaper than grown carrots. The 3D printing part is besides the point.
Also the carrot shape isn't really ideal for cooking. Annoying to split into smaller pieces. If you have the freedom to print it in any shape then I'd take big blocks personally. Much easier to stack, store and cut into arbitrary shapes for cooking. Molds definitely seem like a better idea for mass production than slow 3D printing.
Depends where you live; large garages can be normal. Obviously not 60% of the space, but garages can seriously help protect vehicles and you from the elements. They're great if you have severe winters, frequent rain, strong sunshine, and are now helpful for electric car charging.
Lol, that's me!
Amen
I've got to give you credit, this is the first time I'm hearing of a situation where blockchain actually serves a purpose in a game. It's a pretty niche scenario, but yeah it would add some value in this case.
So basically if something in a game (item, character, account, etc) needs to persist beyond the game then blockchain could be a solution. You could probably still do this with some kind of traditional database, but maybe blockchain has some technical advantage?
Bait and switch
Lol
Yeah it's pretty neat. You can also imagine a version that goes 3D, maybe replicating uneven ground or stairs.
