Frutiger Aero, I think.

Try to use open source software. Harder for it to disappear.

Diarrhoea that is characteristic of coeliac disease is chronic, sometimes pale, of large volume, and abnormally foul in odor. Abdominal pain, cramping, bloating with abdominal distension (thought to be the result of fermentative production of bowel gas), and mouth ulcers[35] may be present.

Coeliac disease leads to an increased risk of both adenocarcinoma and lymphoma of the small bowel

Long-standing and untreated disease may lead to other complications, such as ulcerative jejunitis (ulcer formation of the small bowel) and stricturing (narrowing as a result of scarring with obstruction of the bowel).

I have KISS Launcher installed based on a recommendation, though I haven’t used it yet.

Thank you for calling that out. I’m well aware, but appreciate your cautioning.

I’ve seen hallucinations from LLMs at home and at work (where I’ve literally had them transcribe dates like this). They’re still absolutely worth it for their ability to handle unstructured data and the speed of iteration you get – whether they “understand” the task or not.

I know to check my (its) work when it matters, and I can add guard rails and selectively make parts of the process more robust later if need be.

I’d love a browser-embedded LLM that had access to the DOM.

“Highlight all passages that talk about yadda yadda. Remove all other content. Convert the dates to the ISO standard. Put them on a number line chart, labeled by blah.”

That’d be great UX.

Look for SM-S908U1 specifically. There are a few threads (like this one), but I think most US XDA users were just implicitly aware of how Samsung operated in the US. This was my first device from them and I was caught unawares.

I’m back on Pixel now.

Yeah, my S22 Ultra was carrier unlocked but the bootloader was not unlockable.

Not in the US.

There are a lot of analogies but they all fail in some way. I think PBS Spacetime does the best in general, with good graphics to back up the words.

My layman’s explanation is probably all stuff you’ve heard before. Massive objects “warp” spacetime and things that get stuck in those “wells” eventually fall to the bottom due to drag (from a variety of sources).

You’ve also probably seen the rubber sheet with a bowling ball in the middle used to represent that warping. To visualize that in 3D, I like to imagine a 3D grid of nodes and edges (like a jungle gym of joints and bars) where the whole thing is flexed inward towards a center point. More warped near the center, less warped further out. That kind of conveys the acceleration from gravity felt by things around that center mass.

Thank you for calling this aspect out. I’m surprised so many people are overlooking it. I protest YouTube for the same reasons, but I’ve got one more to add.

When they merged Google Music into YouTube, the service became worse. I’d often have music streaming throughout the day over my speakers, but that broke after the merge.

Anytime I watched a video on my phone that had Content ID-recognized music in it (even in the background), they would cut the stream to my speakers because I am only allowed one stream with any music in it at all.

This isn’t the behavior when you use the ad supported service. Only the paid.

Not to mention all the proper features of Google Music that didn’t carry forward.

If you’re struggling to think of a use-case, consider the internet-based services that are commonplace now that weren’t created until infrastructure advanced to the point they were possible, if not “obvious” in retrospect.

• multimedia websites
• real-time gaming
• buffered audio – and later video – streaming
• real-time video calling (now even wirelessly, like Star Trek!)
• nearly every office worker suddenly working remotely at the same time

My personal hope is that abundant, bidirectional bandwidth and IPv6 adoption, along with cheap SBC appliances and free software like Nextcloud, will usher in an era where the average Joe can feel comfortable self-hosting their family’s digital content, knowing they can access it from anywhere in the world and that it’s safely backed up at each member’s home server.

I’m also a UBI layperson, but this is my understanding:

Basic incomes don’t need to match or exceed the cost of living to provide some of their purported benefits. One of those benefits is replacing difficult to administer welfare services (of which there are some discussions in this thread). In that way the $2700 per person per year can be more efficiently allocated (towards an ideal national gross prosperity) by the individual.

This might solve issues like the infamous “welfare cliff” that have arisen from difficulties in administration.

Mozilla stated that a while back.

How do I capitalize Firefox? How do I abbreviate it?

Only the first letter is capitalized (so it’s Firefox, not FireFox.) The preferred abbreviation is “Fx” or “fx”.

You’re right, it doesn’t. That does give me an idea though.

You could use overlayfs with an opaque upper directory to hide the files littering your $HOME and still access them by bind-mounting them into the appropriate xdg dirs.

Way more effort than it’s worth, of course.

I use OsmAnd on Android and it has a feature to overlay (or underlay) map tiles from multiple sources. I use the OSM tiles as my default and overlay Microsoft’s satellite imagery over them, which I can turn on and off (or even adjust opacity with a slider).

I do that too. There are plenty of subthreads going arguing straw-use is an accessibility issue, but in my case, I just want them for specific drinks – mostly cocktails.

The head on a Ramos Gin Fizz practically requires a straw to enjoy. Especially as someone with a mustache.

Strongly recommend hay straws (like, made of “straw”).

They’re better than paper in that they don’t sog up. They’re inconsistent in size but that has never bothered me. A little flimsy, but I stir iced drinks with them all the time.

You might consider a more elegant approach to accomplish your goals.

For example, I run Tailscale on all of my devices. They are accessible to each other (at all times) through the encrypted “Tailnet” while each has its own public internet provider (my home ISP, my cellular provider, my VPS host, etc).

They all route their DNS requests through my home server which is running Adguard (for DNS ad blocking on every device). If I wanted I could route all their traffic (not just DNS) through the home server, and I could have the home server’s internet-facing interface connect through a commercial VPN to then hide all that egress traffic, across all my devices.

YouTube is in an advantaged position relative to other sites because they directly serve the ads from the same servers that serve the content. That’s why DNS blocking doesn’t work.

It would take more effort than they currently put in but they could track each user-session closely enough to require that the ad stream complete before the content stream is served.

If that happens, I think the next step in ad blocking would be to accept the ad stream but hide it from the user. Let it play silently in the background if necessary.

That’d mean accepting the extra data transfer but still avoiding the psychic damage.
