They also seem to think that continually spending money to do mundane things in a virtual world is not a problem for regular people who actually have to watch their spending.

If computer interaction benefited from being more ‘like reality’, then Microsoft Bob or any of the countless other attempts to create a reality- and/or 3D-based computer interface, would have caught on long ago.
Sums it up nicely 👍
Nornally first the capacitor and then the motor. The capacitor is there to absorb the power surge when the motor starts up.
Definitely the former. The difference is not worth the price hike for me. I guess it’s like with really high performance cars. I appreciate that a Ferrari f40 is in a league of its own and truly extraordinary, I just can’t be bothered to spend that much money on it.
I guess it’s the same with many things. The difference between low quality and high quality is really noticeable and usually comes with a substantial cost. But the difference in cost between high (even exceptional) quality and top-tier truly one-of-a-kind is usually very high, and not worth it for me.
I can’t even remember, (very) expensive food is wasted on me. I enjoy a quality meal, but the top tier stuff just doesn’t make any exceptional or special impression with me. It’s just good food.
Left because I was doing three jobs as one person. They couldn’t hire a replacement with that job description (surprised Pikachu face). My new job wasn’t as exciting as I thought it would be, so I got hired back in a properly defined job and that’s been working out fine.
Mark Felton did a 6 episode series on YT on how the alleged burnt bodies of Hitler and Eva Braun found by the soviets, are actually plants.
Not that Hitler survived the war or anything, they were just buried elsewhere nearby, probably in a civilian mass grave, to prevent the soviets from parading the real bodies around.
There are devices that will cool a drink (can of soda or a beer) to ‘ice cold’ ( I assume something like 5°) in 60 seconds. I guess this sort of answers your question? The full answer is probably not that it is technically impossible, but that the practical use is largely limited to drinks.

Typora also supports it, it’s a great low-overhead tool overall.
Because I like small diagrams and schematics. Doing that in an app, especially on a phone, is tricky. And I find that structuring my thoughts on paper just works better than doing it digitally straight away.
De-escalate emotional tension. Don’t get personal. Don’t make sweeping statements or promises in the heat of the moment.
Belgium. Debit card most of the time. Covid was a turning point, as it popularized QR codes and this in turn led to more payments by payment apps. I rarely ever carry cash anymore.
A couple of things:
My employer spent the past ~10 years de-personalising our offices, and now they wonder why people don’t like to hang out in their sterile ‘clean’ building.
A requirement to answer a message within the hour 24/7 seems very strict for a paid job, never mind a volunteer moderator doing this stuff for free.
Imagine being so douchey that, despite relying on free content and free moderation, you still whine about not being profitable being the users’ fault and then you demand from moderators that they are basically available 24/7 to take your call. This is not just a dumpster fire, this is throwing canisters of gasoline into a dumpster fire.
I was a premium subscriber, simply because I used Reddit a lot, I could financially bear it, and I generally liked how the place was run so I wanted to support them. Now I feel betrayed and my trust is violated, like when your friend borrows money off you and then never pays it back and just laughs in your face for being so naive. So I went from ‘I love Reddit’ to ‘fuck Reddit’ in about a month. Impressive achievement.
According to that logic, I’m doxxing myself every time I go to the supermarket.
This has been tried and tried again, and it never catches on. Computer interfaces that are completely detached from physical 3D space are just much more flexible and easy to use.
