What was the justification for the app store ecosystem?

At that humidity level you can't cool by sweating.

We've had days like that in southern Sweden, near the coast with very high humidity.

I'm starting to go crazy over us not having ACs, and windows that are really hard to get working well with a portable ac.

Retirement homes celebrate getting ice cream machines, but still lack AC and the deaths during summer are significantly higher =/

Shortly before I received password recovery codes to my email, from all facebook accounts I have.

My email requires 2FA, as does my facebook account, but when I went there and clicked "forgot password" there was an unknown email address added to my account. That shouldn't be possible.

Thank you! This was probably the most thorough answer I've gotten yet.

Worst case I could fly home to get it (6 months until free care ends after moving away fromwhere I am now), and I could bring 3 months with me.

This makes planning for an eventual move way easier.

I got this last year, after being on oral meds for a while. One downside I was told is the risk of rejection/allergy to the medicine if treatments aren't given regularly.

On that side note- Pondering a mive to the US from the EU, how does one go about moving a medication regiment like this to avoid disrupting the schedule?

Just yesterday i experienced the smell that was just like the apples from a tree in our yard 25 years ago. There are easily many hundreds of unique smells we can identify.

Instead of guessing and posting as if this was _very weird_ you could just have done a quick google search and found that yes, most likely they could? It's not needed but spread over a day, sure they could.

Sweet tea is very different from an average tea drinker who might (as is common) use no sweetener at all.

Yes it would: https://wordledictionary.com/results?find=_____&has=i,n,o,p,...

Ponzi is a surname, and not included in Wordle.

Can this machine know that?

A machine could, but is this machine sophisticated enough to do that? Why do we play around with hypotethical scenarious where this warning message on another device might not be shitty DRM?

When/where has it been marketed as anything but a "hide history from local users" feature?

All I've seen is the marketing for "buying gifts for your spouse in secret"-feature.

You are saying they have marketed it as a total privacy feature, like the VPN companies do?

oh god no

A lot of us have been using Auctioneer, which has this functionality, since Vanilla. How was the experience of writing your own?

I agree with the previous persons point, which you just flat out disagree with but for some reason veil in some private vs public wording.

Many government functions handle data that the private sector probably shouldn't, and you can't easily choose other govenment providers.

I'd assume this also sets the lowest price in the danish zone to the UK market price when exporting?

NordPool market zones are crazy and some zones see insane price surges when demand prices for neighboring zones are high.

Very nice to not require the computers to connect over the network.

For bird people joining or helping out at a bird rescue is a great thing that feels meaningful and (if there is one nearby) very accessible at the same time.

Aqara zigbee devices are the first non-lights I've used and they have been great!

Well, it would be great if that worked but in general people with this oppinion seemed to be fine to sacrifice (as in let die) anyone with a higher risk rather than contribute with money to allow this isolation.

Fun, but I really wish I could keep reading without having to scroll through unknown amounts of pictures horizontally.

It was interesting because acceptance of surveillance in public was increasing with age, aside from GenZ > GenY.

It was apparently part of the Swedish Internet Foundations yearly survey ( https://svenskarnaochinternet.se/english/ ).

What makes you sure about that?

There was a survey in Sweden last week about face detection/AI surveillance cameras being deployed in public and GenZ was way more supportive of that than Millennials

The US navy doesn't usually run that many ships that haven't been seaworthy for decades. Guess if any private shipping companies do.

One thing I noticed: Other people would get hyper from coffee, I would not. My brain would calm down a lot with the help of caffeine.

I would regularly down 3-4 red bulls (diet) in the evening if I knew I needed to fall asleep and sleep well. I'm not sure if it's been studied but anecdotal evidence from others seem to suggest I'm not alone and that some others have the same experience.

Didn't know Leif founded Omegle but he's struck me as one of the most sincere and well intensioned people I've encountered.

Implying video games are fun.

Jokes aside, video games are first and foremost things I want to spend time with, which is the opposite of most jobs. Catchy title but yeah =/

No. 1G is 9.8 ish (m/s)/s and 3x that is more than 100 kph/s

I really wish there was another way to scroll.

A lot of scroll wheels are, if you can believe it, not made for scrolling dozens of pages worth at a time and some even make noise while doing it!

Consider the implications of your demands.

Gloomy weather? Lamps on in the office? This creates a bird death trap.

Worked with OpenVMS for a few years. It was great fun and lots of stories from the older colleagues who used to work at 'digital'.
