Thank you for linking it. What a powerful moment.

TF stands for TransFlash, which was the name for microSD before it was renamed back in the mid 2000s.

Given how cheap this is, I feel like this makes for a great camera to give to a kid. The camera gets out of the way (no built-in games like a lot of kiddy cameras have) and the foc…

Great article. I have a big soft spot for typography, so learning that (La)TeX effectively emulates monotype's setting capabilities and practices was fascinating. For others lookin…

I'm from Australia where we really don't have any 'national dishes', so we just eat a wide variety of everyone else's dishes. I've never heard of ackee, saltfish, oxtail stew, or J…

I was in the mini camp as well, but the reality is that even the mini can't be used one-handed with ease. Based on that, I switched to a pro max model and haven't looked back. If n…

I don't think they're equating it, moreso saying that, on a technicality, it's already a computer that's always flying the plane, but that the AI and the flight control system are …

Cyan is severely under-represented by monitors, so the extra pixel is a dedicated cyan. It dramatically improves the ability to display blue/green colours. *edit: found the link I …

Obviously it's the singular form of Ubuntu. Like, one "ubunt", two "ubuntu", etc.

For people who think in words maybe? I don’t have an internal monologue, so it’s quite foreign to me.

Exactly my thoughts too. I abandoned Dropbox because there was no upgrade path from free to low-paid-tier. $10 a month is not cheap. Heck, I pay less than that for Amazon prime and…

They all seem to be a disappointingly low resolution, unfortunately.

I'm fairly sure that's the iFixit precision electric screwdriver: https://www.ifixit.com/products/precision-electric-screwdriv...

In Australia, where I live, pet cats are responsible for a huge amount of damage to wildlife, as per https://invasives.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Pet-cat-... From the linked…

Exactly. Please keep cats indoors - they kill all the local wildlife. I have a cat and it stays indoors exclusively.

I hope you’re in a position where you can have an honest conversation about it with your partner. I’ve come to realise over time that honest and open communication is the most crit…

It’s not forced, and we do show by example. I also disagree that they’re too young to be immersed in a love for education, culture, and people. Oh and music too. We listen to a lot…

I’m genuinely sorry to hear that. I make sure my kids know I love them in many, many ways.

I think people deserve parents that give a damn. And I do give a damn. Several in fact. It just doesn’t make me happy.

I’m glad to hear that - it backs up what I’m hoping/expecting will happen. I think I’ll enjoy time with them much more as they age, especially once they’re 7+.

I’m glad it’s eye-opening; that means not enough people talk about their negative experiences, thus justifying my original post even more. My kids miss out on nothing, don’t worry.…

I would never let them think I regret them - that’s such a cruel thing to inflict upon them, and it’s certainly not their fault. I also don’t regret the joy it’s brought my wife. I…

Many of those are things I greatly enjoy, as well as many other things from a very diverse range of hobbies. My kids aren’t old enough to join in on those things yet (6 and 4), so …

I go above and beyond to give them a great life - to care about providing them with a rich education, as well as a wide variety of life experiences, to immerse them in quality time…
