Right? I haven’t listened to knowledge fight in a minute, but I’m sure looking for their upcoming episodes.

Ya win some, ya learn some.

Looks like $250 to me? 50 grand for 200 devices?

They do/did here in Virginia. They’re “skill games” or something. Some law changed it something because they’ve been turned off with a sign taped to the screen for a while now.

I went through the same path. Gmail came to mind first, then eBay, then a MUD I haven’t actually played in ages but double check that my account is there now and then.

It always is.

Is it just me, or do programmers only come in “lightweight” and “Rivals Þor in trying to drink the oceans dry” varieties?

Somehow I manage to be both. My alcohol tolerance is very high (which is great… I like a little buzz but never want to be actually drunk), but for me, one toke is over the line.

I’m not native, but have lived in Philly. The bell peppers bother me. Wiz, American, provolone, or Swiss all are pretty common in my experience. As is no cheese at all, which this appears to be. But then it’s not a cheesesteak, it’s a steak.

I've heard that the issue for some cats isn't that they can see the bottom, but that their whiskers hit the side of the bowl and that's uncomfortable.

Amusingly, there's an issue with the app I use for youtube that means I'm stuck with a dubbed version in a language I don't speak.

You’re not the first person to have that moment. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/aug/26/naomi-klein-naomi-wolf-conspiracy-theories

In case you missed the second image on the original post, that text is in this pattern in glow in the dark thread

Reddit had a community called something like 3dprintmything where you could post what you were looking for and get bids from folks who could get it to you. I dunno if we have anything like that here.

I’m from the US and I don’t order hot tea in a place that might do this. I wouldn’t trust them to make it, either, though. My reason is that the water they’d bring just isn’t going to be hot enough to steep with.

I love black tea steeped in water that started close to boiling when the tea was added and poured (or teabags removed) before the bitter tannins get too strong. Even cheap black tea can be decent if it’s brewed well.

If they bring me a pot of water, it probably came from the hot water thing on their coffee maker and it already started not hot enough even before they put it in a non-insulated metal pot. If it were hot enough, I’d actually prefer to put the bag in myself so I know when to take it out.

On average, folks in my country have never even had hot tea brewed well, and I think that bad tea is worse than bad coffee.

If I’m in, say, an Asian place, I’d be more likely to order tea since I reckon the staff are more likely to know how good it can be and how to make it.

We were definitely doing it on forums/newsgroups/listservs and in chat at least as far back as the early 90s. Using full keyboards.

You can use keepass in multiple ways where the password never touches the clipboard. I usually use it with a Firefox extension that fills in the fields. You can also have it swap back to your last window and autotype (not sure exactly what the mechanism is).

If you do copy, it clears it from the clipboard history ~10s after copying. I’m pretty sure that’s configurable.

I did also, because my feed is mostly coding stuff and I actually use lisp.

What in that article do you think contradicts what they said?

They were talking about the device from the article, when a non-wired remote was a new and neat idea. Also, standardized, long-lasting batteries may not have been as common as we’re used to these days.

That’s the world where the original engineers decided not to go with an electronic device, so they didn’t have customers buying the bleeding edge tech and thinking it had bricked a couple of months after purchase because “did you change the battery?” wasn’t a consideration they were used to yet

I stand corrected. I haven’t used anything other than proton mail in a while and it works there. I thought it was part of the standard
