Truly harrowing read, puts your petty life problems in perspective.

I agree, actually it’s quite a turning point for me because I’ve always used Windows and have tried to persevere with Windows 11, but more often than not I’m feeling let down by it.

This has happened to me and it’s causing me a lot of headaches. Haven’t found a solution yet as I’ve not had the energy to figure it out.

Do you have any recommendations? Or must-reads in the genre?

Interesting, however, I have experienced ringing in my ears after getting home from clubs/ loud music events only to wake up in the morning and have my hearing back to normal.

Not sure how ‘temporary tinnitus’ can be explained by this theory.

I’ve just recently got back into it again with a small controller after having a break for a decade, and am having a great time, I started with vinyl then CDJs.

I’m using Beatport Link for my music which is incredible, but it doesn’t match vinyl shopping and really getting to know your tracks, as I already have 200 songs in various playlists and barely know the names of any of them.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write such a fascinating comment!

Thank you very much I needed a good laugh this morning!

Well that was grim.

“Officer 1BDI” (one beady eye) always gets me in the first episode, absolutely brilliant series.

Does anyone else hit back immediately when confronted with the GDPR/cookie consent modal?

I found this absolutely hilarious and I’m not entirely sure why, just the tone of the instructions as if it’s an ordinary thing to make in an afternoon. Brilliant.

For anyone looking for further reading on the subject, this article popped up on hn a few months ago which I thought was fascinating:

I love this idea, it made me wonder about the difference in efficiency between wired and Qi and apparently it’s not too far off: https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/state-of-wireless-charg...

I’m yet to finish Skyward Sword, and have had an urge to revisit Wind Waker again recently. Anyone here from the OoT generation played Breath of the Wild?

New static site generator tool releases seem to have superseded new js framework releases. I like the direction things are moving.

Oh my good lord that was a serious eye-opener. I’m not American but can’t imagine it’s drastically different in the UK. I’ve lost a huge amount of money in the last year and also my car decided to die on me, I’m currently scraping together 3 grand or so to get a new one at the moment. So many people I know are struggling at the moment too. Meanwhile Jeff Bezos is probably sleeping like a baby.

Can’t imagine how many hundreds of thousands of hours of people’s lives have been wasted just sitting and waiting for it to load. Oof.

This was extremely refreshing, albeit very concerning to read.

I really hope this is true, always nice to hear about the robbing happening in the opposite direction.

That is terrifying.

Going through life you naturally learn more and more about dealing with people and situations, but reading about the why is fascinating and definitely gives you a fresh perspective on things.

I bought one at the start of the year, it’s always the way I suppose.
