I live in a medium size city with extensive Verizon coverage. 5g here is still dogshit. It's always slower than LTE and even though towers are everywhere, my phone is constantly switching back and forth.

Nearly all are chrome under the hood. What's your alternative?

Why? Influence the education of children and you influence their future votes.

Cut back on caffeine; don't drink it past noon.

Go to bed at the same time every night.

Keep your room cool and dark.

When you get in bed, turn the light off and go to sleep. Don't read or watch videos in bed.

Chamomile and Valerian root teas are magic.

If you suffer from anxiety, find and utilize healthy coping mechanisms to reduce it. Meditation can be helpful.

I usually fall asleep within 5 to 10 minutes, and sleep 7.5 to 8.5 hours most nights.

It's as timeless as the Cool S.

I'm running FF on a 10 year old Linux laptop with no issues.

I always took it to be a satire of colonialism.

It also includes YouTube Music. Yes, I know, many will say they value proposition it's still poor even with that. Honestly it's worth it to me. I subscribe to the family plan because we watch a lot of YouTube and listen to a lot of music. No ads plus unlimited music for 4 people is worth it to us.

BC is somewhat of an arbitrary line. I'd say that modern society and our relationship to it are radically different from either our forefathers' or Caesar's due to the industrial and information revolutions. It's not the distance in linear time that's important, but the difference in social and cultural time.

He called you out for using the bathroom while on the clock? What line of work were you in?

He thinks he's discovered a shortcut. Also, if it were to work, what are the implications of putting your old blood into the body of your 17 year old son? Creepy. If he's so concerned, he should focus on diet, exercise, skin care, stress management, metabolic health management, and sleep. Creepy sociopath.

Is this the one with the totalitarian television network in space where people eager to compete on British gameshows are killed when they lose?

Except it's not. It's been clarified that it's using HoloISO.

Hmm, let's see where that gets you.

I have one and it's a little easier to prepare, keep warm, and clean. If you eat a lot of rice, it's worth it.

Possums eat ticks. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make, ticks are awful.

Is it so obvious? It's something you would expect a business to have, but it's not always true. Regarding Valve specifically, do they have a roadmap for VR? I'd hope so, but they've been fairly quiet on that front.

Depends on the station. I am still able to mute at most of the stations I've used recently.

You mean phablet? I have no idea why that neologism never took off. 🤔

GAS, game acquisition syndrome. I have it bad.

I figured out how to feel better. It's what we've been told all along but didn't want to hear. From the outside it looks like a prescription for a miserable, dull, joyless life. In reality it opens up the possibility of feeling good, happy, and free.

I think they also unified task search with Outlook search. I can't seem to figure out how to search just my tasks any longer.

I understand this is your experience but I've yet to see this confirmed by any well crafted studies.

My isp doesn't allow self hosting (available to WAN). Isn't that a pretty common condition in ToS for most ISPs?

I would strongly recommend looking into it. There's not much you can't do with Linux these days and it's easier than ever to adopt. Check out Linux Mint for a good distro for those new to Linux.

The subtitle of the article says don't expect any modern updates to these stealth classics. I'd say no it's not worth it.

You're in for quite a ride.

I can't see them either.

Big IndieMaus fan. Good rec. August is Metroidvania month, time to get hyped!

The Blindboy Podcast

Blindboy Boatclub, famous as one half of The Irish duo The Rubber bandits, shares intimate and interesting "hot takes" on various subjects, interviews with interesting artists, and original short fiction all against the backdrop of an original soothing ambient piano track. This is my comfort podcast.

I think there's some research done on benefits of blood transfusion from young mice to older mice but no human trials as far as I'm aware. It's likely bs. That said, I look younger than he does and I'm 48. Partly genetics, partly luck, partly making an effort to eat right and exercise.

Same here. I got the flu and covid vaccine the week before Thanksgiving and got sick with COVID. The week before Christmas. I was out of commission for 2 weeks and I still have a little bit of a cough. The vaccine is not enough.

IIRC many of the features were incorporated into Google docs. Realtime collaboration, etc..

I'm pretty sure it originated in the mid twentieth century and referred to touching up makeup.

What's the threshold for being able to suggest that it looks like it has potential? That it looks like there's a possibility that there might be something good there, I guess we'll keep an eye on this? Because that's what "looks promising" means. One trailer of gameplay footage? An hour of unedited gameplay? Something in between? Looks promising to me.

I have not. I've only just started exploring self hosting and am quite a novice. Thanks for the lead!

Tried? It passed as part of the biennium budget, didn't it?

Good point!
