Wine is always required.

In an all-to-brief summary: All gravity cares about is mass.

…after having been left a shell of their former self.

… or Tencent …

Every 400 visitors someone gets an opportunity to reset it and it picks a different Unsplash image.

Any chance you could work with Christian to get this functionality worked into Apollo? I can’t stand to use Reddit any other way, but this would be nice functionality to have.

Why make this a contest with basically no prize to extract free labor from inexperienced students?

Why not, say, hire some actual experts?

More like one image per X days. I don’t care how many different things you can type into an AI in a given period of time. I only want to see the best of the best of the best.

This is like when we discovered stereo recording, and mixers would put tracks at either 100% left or 100% right, just to show off the novelty of it.

Or when 3D movies became ubiquitous and every movie (even those shot completely without the third dimension as a consideration) got released in 3D.

Once the novelty wears off, I imagine things will be better.

For now, it’s just a deluge of low-effort, yet high (relative to traditionally produced art) apparent quality artworks.

Sure, but also Jane.

I’ll bite. What do you believe is the meaning of ‘bespoke’ as used here?

This is fantastic. Super easy to listen and use.

One suggestion: a brief fade in/out on play/stop. Stops, in particular can be pretty jarring.

So they had you right up to the end!

It’s interesting to contrast this with the same company that had the awareness to recognize that basically no one ever types out “Mountain Dew” in its entirety and adopted the _de facto_ name it had acquired in the new millennium: mtn dew.

Yeah, you’ve probably used debit cards. That’s functionally just cash.

Credit cards are no-go. No airline miles from picking up psychoactives.

A humidor is also a box that controls humidity and heat. How much do people pay for those (and cigars sold separately)?

If there’s a market for that, why not this?

Weird. In Dutch (https://silkn.nl/toothwave-black) it’s €119.

In English (both EU and GB), French, Spanish, and German ( e.g. https://silkn.eu/toothwave-black) it’s €249.

Remember the uproar when Apple wanted to decentralize CSAM detection?

Imagine how loud the screams would be if they tried to decentralize app distribution.

If Signal is forced to interoperate with e.g. WhatsApp, the end-to-end encryption of one or both will have to be compromised. If the integration is forced, then there’s no barrier for either app grabbing all the info from the other in plain-text.

I dunno… I figure just the bandwidth costs, not to mention data center/cloud costs, for the constant stream of apps being deployed/updated is pretty significant.

I could expect them to be moving multiple terabytes of data per hour.

Also razor-sharp blades and high-powered electric trimmers.

Plus it’s people’s hair/beards which can have a profound impact on their appearance and thus their mental state.

All good reasons to train from “can succeed” to “cannot fail.”

FOP chapters often aren’t particularly democratic, progressive or labor-friendly; often endorsing Republican candidates. National FOP even endorsed Trump. Twice.

Check out [Sonic Pi](https://sonic-pi.net/). It’s a self-described “code-based music creation and performance tool”.

I’ve noodled around with it a bit, and it’s pretty cool.

Some of us cut our teeth on BSD even before linux and Darwin is like a familiar friend’s cousin from across town.

“Send download link” is such a dark pattern.

Just put a demo on the site.

> That means that they can expect the warehouse managers to get pretty desperate…

It would seem to make sense for all the warehouse managers themselves to form their own union.

I was recently gifted an 1850’s Waltham that a buddy restored. Pulling it out of my pocket is now my standard answer to “What’s your TikTok?”

This little site really helped me cement in my mind what’s going on inside of the watch.

When it’s time to simplify and/or troubleshoot overly-complex things, I like to use the phrase “The abstraction is a distraction”.

Nah. I race on iRacing, and whenever we go to a street circuit, you just ignore the on-pavement markings, and run the optimal line. Once you’ve gotten used to the general layout, you watch for the racing-specific markings (the red/white “piano” curbing mostly) and ignore the rest.

It’s incredibly fun in VR.

Sure, but how many watts of power would those beasts need?

> The smaller house they vacated is now open for somebody else

Or, they didn’t sell it and are just seeking rent on it, now. For this effect to really work, the number of home-owners should equal the number of homes.

Right now, there are many, many fewer home-owners than homes.
