The crazy thing is, for me as a user that has beta tested in the past, I’m at like 10/20. 50% of the time I get a response … no idea why I’m clearly higher than anyone else I’ve read/heard complaining about it. I don’t write verbose, I give them just enough info, logs every time … no idea why it works.

I mean this happens all the time in other industries, trades, cars, healthcare even. The right response is to up the price to account for stupidity so you can afford to warranty them. That’s literally what everyone else does. My product’s warranty cost is baked into the original price because I’m running a for profit business, not a charity.

This is the best explanation of aliasing I’ve seen. Well done.

Such a great slow burn album. Absolutely builds.

Donald Trumps America is right. This isn’t my America.

I’m in the trades, we’ve only increased hiring.

That last sentence, "And I'm fighting for the very working people that he ran a campaign to empower that he has since then betrayed,” is very true.

The conservative people I work with DO NOT like what Trump is doing right now. Hope it hits fever pitch where they actually start doing something about it and send a very clear message. Trump won’t listen because he’s too much up a psychopathic narcissist but it may change the people around him to stop empowering him.

So, if both American and Dutch parents value independence, why do Dutch kids seem so much happier? I wonder if the key difference lies in how both sets of parents understand what freedom for kids looks like.

“Dutch parenting is all about raising self-sufficient kids,” Tracy told me. “My older two (ages 12 and 14) bike more than 10 kilometers (6 miles) daily to school since there are no school buses.

“If a teacher cancels a class, students just have free time instead of a substitute. My 14-year-old had two canceled classes this morning and simply stayed home until noon. This would be a logistical nightmare for schools and parents if we didn’t just expect our kids to sort it out.”

Dutch parenting, according to the close to a dozen parents in the Netherlands I spoke with, emphasizes allowing children a freedom of movement that many American kids don’t have. When I was in Haarlem and Amsterdam, bikes and little kids on bikes were everywhere.

Good article. We moved to an open concept neighborhood (low open fences, not “privacy” style) and the kids have a lot of movement around the neighborhood since it’s safe, and it has a lot of trails, wide sidewalks, and bike lanes. Yes, it’s more affluent. They’ve definitely been a lot happier than our last house where privacy fences were everywhere. They made friends a lot faster and seem to know everyone.

I was thinking the same thing. It really does describe it well.

This is exactly what came to mind when I read the question. Unbelievably cinematic moment. Still one of my favorite strategy games.

 

One of the more interesting museum exhibits we’ve seen. This room at the History Colorado Center is calming and serene with the transition from night with stars moving on the ceiling and insect noises to twilight with the clouds moving and the birds singing. It was a blood pressure dropper and my youngest loved it.

 

AYANEO is making another Android-based gaming handheld – but this one has a trick up its sleeve. The Pocket EVO is the world's first Android handheld with a 7-inch 120Hz OLED screen, according to the manufacturer. That high refresh rate should mean smoother gameplay, assuming there are enough titles to support it.

Based on the design of the AYANEO 2S, the Pocket EVO boasts a Qualcomm Snapdragon G3x Gen 2 chipset, which will ensure it has plenty of grunt for AAA mobile gaming and emulation.

A small medium at large.

 

Looks to be based on GBA4iOS.

 

I miss getting on a plane and reading Skymall to see what batshit crazy stuff they had to sell. Anyone else?

 

My prints come out very well but I’m noticing on larger prints that one corner of my bed prints tighter than the opposite. What’s causing this?

Printing on an Ender 3 Pro with upgraded metal extruder, beefier bed springs and metal levelers, and upgraded hot end. Not direct drive yet and no auto bed leveling.

 

In Colorado this year (2024), unaffiliated voters were mailed out their ballots for both the Democratic and Republican Presidential Primaries and get the chance to vote in one or the other (NOT both).

I’m fairly centrist. I lean left on progressive ideals and right on economic (yeah, it’s fun /s).

The question is, who’s should I put my vote in for? Is it better to vote for Biden or another candidate in the Democratic, or another candidate that isn’t Trump in the Republican. Again, we can only vote in one of the primaries or our vote won’t count if we vote in both. It’s one or the other.

What is best?

 

Problem: when placed on the bottom, the jump button blocks the last comment in a thread.

Solution: Need to be able to scroll past the top of the jump button on the last comment

When editing a comment and posting the edit, if you then want to re-edit the comment you get the original comment, not the edited version. This only happens when using the 3 dot menu on the right of the comment. If you tap and hold and use that edit, it shows the most recent. Supremely annoying.

 

When changing what gestures do in Settings > Gestures the color doesn’t change with the gesture you choose.

Ex. Reply to Long swipe and bookmark to short swipe. The gestures change but reply now has a green background and bookmark is blue.
