how is loops going?

they do?

so did they?

hourly CN air quality map, unit is µg/m³: https://www.air-level.com/

reuters says “The WHO considers PM2.5 concentrations above 50 micrograms per cubic metre “severe” air pollution.” but I couldn’t actually find that in WHO global air quality guidelines or anywhere else. china considers >500 µg/m³ “severe” (严重) and everything on the map would be below that

well you no longer have to do the off-label calculation

fitzroy is a last name that 3033 persons share as of 2010, so i could see someone appropriating it as their child’s first name

that infamous Ctrl+Alt+Del strip was drawn up for a reason

It is estimated that as many as 26% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage and up to 10% of clinically recognized pregnancies.

I consider multitasking a discrete part of the OS, not Liquid Glass. i do have some thoughts on it though

for what it’s worth there are gestures they don’t tell you that make the multitasking so much easier: toggle maximization by tapping the top of the window, and then as they mention you can snap it to either side by smashing the window in a direction

also they added back drag and drop to Split View in iPadOS 26.2. after three months they finally have a stable release of this multitasking thing

I have found multitasking useful especially with stage manager, but I completely understand those who don’t like it and just want an option to restore the old multitasking. I also miss Quick Notes (workaround through a shortcut button just isn’t the same)

i find it great on the iphone too, especially with the new swipe interaction to go between tabs (not the safari kind; like in the app store swiping from today to apps). the cornering of buttons works wonders. plus i personally dig the aesthetic though i understand a ton of people don’t

it did make things feel better and easier-to-interact though … on the touchscreen ipad. it looks like hell on macbook

It’s not just about digital privacy. It never talks about data privacy. It’s about consumer protection and social media’s nature being harmful. The only European law violations mentioned are anti-scamming + “𝕏 refuses to make its public data available to researchers”. It’s also explicitly in favor of KOSA, which lets the FTC ban anything it wants from children’s eyes online. It’s quite implied that the article supports banning social media for youth.

Is comparing social media to a dangerous drug over the top? Not according to the U.S. Surgeon General’s office, which in 2023 released an advisory titled “Social Media and Youth Mental Health” (download it now before RFK Jr. suppresses it!), which summarized extensive evidence of mental health damage to children and adolescents who consume excessive amounts of social media.

Okay, that comparison’s still wayyyy over-the-top.

Apparently I was wrong: Most heart attacks are caused by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_artery_disease . The article says that Bernie Sanders doesn’t have heart disease nor familial history of it, though. Hope you live long!

A heart attack is not an ailment. It’s like getting bruised: certain people in certain situations are more likely to get it, but it’s not a disease or condition and just randomly happens. everybody gets heart attacks

“early morning of the 3rd” and “before dawn of the 3rd” definitely would not become 00:00—8:00 of the 2nd, and that’s all that matters imo for the practical utility of delineating borders between days in the first place. i also like organizing things but i see absolutely no way to define “organized” for this lol

i’ve never seen someone who takes that as “before dawn”. night is after dusk, midnight’s before dawn
