Awe, and it’s so respectful to the bats, too; it’s sweet to hear.
Perhaps we will be to our descendents as the first tetrapods are to us.
Not the worst thing to happen to a species, seems to happen to all of them.
I got a great new story once these clicks dry up: “Expensive disposable fork thrown out a little earlier than forecasted”
I’m not a fan of Elon but low Earth orbit satellites by nature are meant to de-orbit. Yes they cause astronomy light pollution but cannot cause Kessler syndrome since their orbit is temporary from the start. Being so low there is atmospheric drag, which sometimes slows objects more than predicted.
Making news of this is like being shocked that infrastructure undersea cables and communication lines are falling apart and being replaced. It’s a fact of life.
Why should these things be free? The other things we get for free on the web are either supported by donations or they harvest something from you that’s valuable and sell it, that’s not free either.
I’m into the idea of paying for higher quality services and have enjoyed my kagi trial. Might see if I can find someone to split an account with.
If it’s not annoying I could probably use a spare old phone exclusively for android auto. But unfortunately I’m still entrenched in Google services. Slowly dragging myself out.
I’m still desperately in love with android auto. I’d still need a phone with full android permissions and functionality. So graphene is still out.
That’s really cool they smoothed the install process like that. Might try that on my old pixel as a travel phone.
I understand one can flash a pixel. I never want to install another rom again though. I want to buy it and have it become my daily driver with android auto and communication apps within a few hours. I have found the ROM scene to be an enormous time commitment that I no longer want to fiddle with.
I have the same experience. I find somehow the call blocking is more robust on Samsung. I had no idea that they even had that feature parity.
The perception of Samsung being full of bloat is a misnomer. Can’t get rid of lots of Google apps on the pixel and can’t change the photo gallery app or the camera app.
I have my own Cloud and don’t want to use Google’s, and Samsungs software was much more receptive in me de-googling the phone the way I wanted to with my own self hosted photo backup software.
Also I don’t have a hand warmer for a phone now.
I love this, it’s an emotionally regulated rant that’s so eloquently written that it’s more intelligent and informative than the article in question.
I would agree with this answer for the Zeitgeist of how Canadians see Albertans from a stereotypical way, and this is true for our rural population. But politically, Ontario takes the Alabama cake for voting in so many Ford’s so many times. How do you guys keep doing this?
I have had USB-C phones, battery packs and other devices since 2015. Not a single port or cable has failed me so far.
Worrying about the durability of USB-C 7 years later seems unwarranted. But I can see wanting to use up your lighting cable subscription before moving on.
I told my partner, just get the phone ASAP when you can, it’s the only non usb thing we have left.
I’ve read all the responses here and am horrified that you seem to live in an ungrounded plastic bubble. Is that a Canberra thing? Or can’t even find a small metal object the size of a coin to make discharging painless, how why?
If it’s an old house there should be tonnes of metal things to touch.
Corners of walls, radiators or central air vents or return air vents, screws on switches or power outlets, furniture with metal bits on it, sinks taps and water fixtures with metal parts, thermostat, fireplace casing.
Literally touch everything and report back.
Yeah wall corners are often metal and the paint on it seems to soften the discharge.
Damn, I was going to suggest this, I do it all the time. Perhaps shuffle around and touch everything in sight until you find something that zaps and therefore discharges you. Once you find something grounding (zappy) touch that before you touch your dog.
If by a good chunk of change you mean free then yes. Mod tools are not paywalled in sync. I think the reasoning was that mods don’t really get paid so they decided not to add insult to injury and mod tools are free.

Thank fuck for this ai summary, it took seconds to read. I opened the video just to see how long it would take to watch it. 5 minutes of life would be gone, god damn it.
Been using it for over a month. I love it, hopefully it’s something I can self host later.
Omega mart in Las Vegas might come close?
Can’t think of large scale ones unless you include the rest of Las Vegas.
