I would seriously consider something like this since my computing job requires me to stare at a light bulb all day. Perhaps there’s a demographic that would spring for this in the same way there is for quality chairs.

If you are going to write, say, fantasy - stop reading fantasy. You’ve already read too much. Read other things; read westerns, read history, read anything that seems interesting, because if you only read fantasy and then you start to write fantasy, all you’re going to do is recycle the same old stuff and move it around a bit.
-Terry Pratchett
Yeah, normalize either being okay. Just like long or short hair. Diversity is the spice of life.
Indeed, alcohol abuse is so normalized it’s scary. I drink occasionally and rarely enjoy getting super drunk but it always annoys me when people base their whole personality off any sort of drug. Some people I otherwise really like would just constantly talk about drugs. It got very tiring and I eventually just stopped hanging out with them.
I’ve been happy with Kagi. It’s for-pay but it’s quality to me.
It’s not that they necessarily care, it’s that it’s the assumed default. So then I have to respond with “I can’t do that, can you upload it here?” it makes me the odd one out making people jump through hoops.
The iphone/non-iphone situation is utterly insane to me. I am constantly being punished for not having an iphone, be it texting or airdrop. These things should be standardized and interoperable, not owned commodities by companies. Grrr.
Not sure if this was referencing it but just in case someone doesn’t know:
Nice!

https://github.com/k2-fsa/sherpa-onnx has some apks you can download. The quality of the voice I’ve used is fantastic: I prefer it to Google’s to be honest. The program itself has been buggy for me, though… Needing to launch the TTS launcher before I can use any application that would use it
I used to play a game where I guessed the top comment on a post. I was right more than I’d like!
Baby boomers got burned more than Nero ever did!
Don’t hate it! You were just born in a different time. Your time will come where you have to explain to the young ones about how “smart phones” worked since they’ll just have their implants as interfaces. And also jetpacks.
And weird bugs like Windows audio somehow creeping into audio CD burns. Or the times in Linux where the tray would refuse to open or close. I used to keep a paper clip next to my next to force it open sometimes…
I don’t miss that hardware.
It took me until graduate school to learn that “mortified” is not another word for “scared”/“fearful”
It still looks that way to me what with mort in there!
It also took me a long time to realize that the word “awry”, which I read often in books and inferred its meaning, and “ah-rai” were the same thing. I thought awry was pronounced “aw-ree” and it was just a synonym for “ah-rai”.
And don’t forget the CLA!
I don’t disagree with that statement; however, that doesn’t make it something the general public will embrace. Its mess of extensions are top little too late. That ship has long sailed. And I say this as someone that prefers using XMPP for 1:1 chats
Indeed. Xmpp is lost as a general purpose chat app for everyone. I have many issues with matrix but it’s the best chance we have, particularly with bridges.
Don’t really get why everyone jumped to dildo. I love a good dildo but it didn’t come to mind for me.
Good job!
It could be a Facebook profile entry!
