Maybe rather than being about difficulty, it has to do with patents? No idea, just a hunch.

I think this is actually totalitarian left - the right is more about personal liberties etc.

Not trolling – I might be wrong –people more knowledgeable about the left/right dichotomy are welcome to shed some light onto this.

Media bias, perhaps?

I'm in the Netherlands - these are the right ones for me:

I just chose the pair that dampened the most and irritated the least. These are extremely soft so it's not annoying to lie on one ear. But when they're decompressed they filter so much that the only sound I still hear are my breathing, and my long time friend mister Tinnitus. (I can distinguish​ 8 or 9 tones and pitches so my tinnitus is really heavy I guess)

I use one pair for about 1 or 2 weeks depending on how much wax is released from my ears. If the plugs get too waxy, I replace the plugs.

These aren't cheap, but they are the best imo.

I'd love to get a 9-5 sleep pattern. Sleep at 9pm, wake at 5am.

Yeah, or as someone else suggested too, reasonably easy math formulas like Fibonacci. I also used to advice this to my mates if they had too much to drink and became nauseous when trying to fall asleep.

We watched TV in the 90s. Lots and lots. Try the 40s.

Earplugs are my #1 life changer when it comes to sleep. I found these really soft ones that don't really get in the way when you're lying on one ear, they filter pretty much all of the sound and when I take them out the next day, my ears don't hurt. As it turns out my wife's breathing kept me kind of awake, and traffic sounds too. And now that I got used to it, thanks to the associativity of the brain, these days I fall asleep within 10 minutes of putting them in. Most of the time, anyway. Sometimes I do need sleep meds to just tip me over into actual sleep. But if there's one thing I can recommend to other people is to spend some time to really find your own suitable ear plugs. I'm just lucky my wife is ok with it, she doesn't have these sleeping problems and is on stanby for if our boy might wake up in the night... Which almost never happens.

Is this an ad? It sure looks like an ad.

Not sure if it qualifies as slang, but when listening to some ppl from the UK I keep noticing that they replace the 'th' sound with the 'f' sound. I'm tellin' ya it's the truf!

It exists. But I guess I get why you might be thinking this: with CM13 there were nightly builds for lots and lots of devices, but with LOS13 they heavily reduced the amount of devices for which they build nightlies.

I'm not sure if this means that they ceased to support LOS13 for these devices entirely. But it does seem that way, on account of how long it's been since the device tree ('DT') and kernel for my phone have seen any update. (HTC One M9, a.k.a. himaul)

Nowadays I just build LOS13 myself every once in a while, because it still receives generic updates and fixes, and luckily the current kernel and DT still work fine. It's just that, while the DT also wasn't updated that often back on CM13, iirc the kernel did receive updates and fixes fairly regularly. With that no longer being the case is why I suspect they halted supporting it at all.

My reason for staying on LOS13 rather than to upgrade to LOS14 is that the Xposed Framework does not exist for LOS14 / Android N. So that's what I'm waiting for. I wish the LOS13 would recognize how many people want to use 13 on the M9 and provide updates even if it's just once a month. Or maybe they do recognise this, but they just don't have the manpower, resources, or heck maybe there were too many problems when users switched from CM to LOS... I don't know.

There is just one really annoying error which I don't know how to fix, which is that the default camera app crashes, I suspect because of face detection. I thought they fixed that on CM13 ages ago. I guess he bug snuck back in. The OpenCamera does not crash, thank heavens, but it's still a nasty issue I wish would be addressed.

Anyway. My point was that it's still possible to build LOS13 for many devices.

I have to say it does sound very Zen, balloon making. In life, I have found that the trick is not about how to keep the mind busy, but about how, how often, and when to get it at ease.

Used to be the same with newspapers, before the rise of mobile phones. Sometimes ppl enjoy to come together to spend some time by themselves, together. No biggie.

We can also teach them to recognize clickbait.

Where are those coupons? :-)

Who is James Heisig, and what is his method? I'd like my Japanese ability to explode too!

Thanks. I recently purchased the Human Japanese app, and I took a 2 year subscription on japanesepod101.com. I wasn't sure whether duolingos would have been a better choice. Probably not. But I'm still happy to have read your message. I'll stick to the two tools I've paid for.

The sooner we get opensource alternatives, the better!

Oh, but they do need the money. The goal of the company is to maximize profit for the shareholders.

Could you back this up / substantiate your claim, please?

tl;dr "don't fix anything because of other bugs." Is that what you're saying? If so: that ship don't sail.

So, what terminal do you use?

I wish something like this were available for Chrome. My Firefox use has been declining. Not really sure why. Though the termination of the addons language (xul?) in favor of webextensions is probably a big reason.

The only thing that bugs me about neovim is that it seems to require workarounds to get the escape button to behave the same as in vim. When I press escape to exit insert mode, there is a small delay. If I press a key (e.g. 'j' to go down) too quickly after Escape, it inserts the 'j' and cancels what escape is meant to do.

In tmux I know of a workaround (iirc, 'set escape-delay 0' or something similar), but I wish I didn't have to change a tmux setting so one program can function. It's really annoying.. but ultimately worth it, I guess.

That said — to the neovim team: congratulations ​on reaching the 2.0 milestone!

Pure nonsense. Or did you try a distribution from 2002?

Well, I've never heard of this site before, but so long and thanks for all the fish, I guess. Looks like I missed a pretty nice website.

Until they run out of heroin..

Is this like, the fine print?

How is that relevant?

Can you always just buy ECC memory (I have DDR3, I guess it's more affordable now since it's a little bit older), or does something else (cpu, motherboard) need to support it as well?
