Using shift + scroll wheel to horizontally scroll in a UI. Whenever I see my project manager going all the way to the bottom of the application and dragging the scrollbars to move horizontally it just kills me a bit inside haha.

This is a great way to think. Some people are so frustrated with waiting in line at the bank or market. For me, it’s just another unintended break where I get to relax.

I’m about 40 hours into Trails To Azure and it’s been a blast going through The Legend Of Heroes and the Trails series in order.

I think this is the case where certain people simply can’t see it here the difference.

I collect video game and movie soundtracks and the main difference I can hear between a 320kbps VS a FLAC that’s in the 1000kbps range is not straight up “clarity” in the sense that something like an instrument is “clearer” but rather the spacing and the ability to discern the difference where instruments come from is much better in a Hi-Res file with some decent wired headphones (my pair is $200). All this likey doesn’t matter much though when most users stream via Spotify which sounds worse than my 320kbps locally and people are using Bluetooth headphones at lower bitrates since they don’t have better codec compatibility like aptX and LDAC.

I believe emoji was a Japanese creation, not a Apple creation: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoji

I have a small setup for some self hosted apps and media.

• Beelink Mini S.
• 2 external 5TB drives.
• A USB fan used as an exhaust because the SSD inside gets a bit warm.

I think total power is about 30W.

I use Deezer’s family plan that includes FLAC/HiFi for $15.99/month.

Are you saying Deemix only downloads at 128kbps? If so, I’ve been using it as well and download in FLAC. Also, I pay for the family plan which is $15.99/month.

Edit: Ah, I’m guessing you’re not on a paid Deezer plan.

Thank you, friend. You’ve convinced me to restart my phone.

Good call. For the commenter above: https://archive.ph/nVy4s

Whenever I hit paywalled articles, I have Gemini summarize it for me. Here’s what I got:

This is an article about a flaw in a password manager. It discusses a man named Michael who lost access to his bitcoin wallet. The password manager he used generated a weak password. Researchers were able to crack the password because of this weakness. They used the date and time the password was created to guess it. Michael was able to recover his bitcoin wallet.

Ouch!! That is brutal. Do you see a lot of EVs on the road there?

Where in California are you? Here in SoCal with SCE their PRIME Time Of Use plan is $0.26/kWH from 9PM - 4PM. Totally works for my family since we work from home and drive EVs locally. We also have a 2019 Prius which gets us about 50-55 MPG and 500+ miles on a full tank for longer drives.

Edit: I should add that the standard Time Of Use plan is $0.38/kWH from 9PM - 4PM. Peak hour usage from 4PM - 9PM is somewhere between $0.53 - $0.62/kWh I think.

We mainly charge our car overnight and it works out well for us.

This is a great example of the rude way to use that phrase.

I have a Battle Tracks playlist of RPG battle music that really pumps me up!

“It’s my first rodeo.”

I think the point though is you might be able to connect a Garmin to your iPhone but only Apple Watches get special access to certain APIs because “security”.

I loved being able to open up Assistant to quickly summarize an article for me, but Gemini requires me to also attach the URL to its context and then type/say “Summarize” and then hit the submit button only to wait longer for the summary.

The only pro I can think about is that I can continue to ask for details about or related to the article.
