    The instances that I'd want a replay are more likely to be when I /don't/ strike – I want to review the ball's motion through the pins and off the deck on unsuccessful shots so I c…

    I recently noticed a tiny "Hide" control (to hide these) that pops up in the top right, which is long overdue.

    How do you prevent meetings from meandering and going over time? How do you ensure the correct people are in the meeting when there's no agenda?

    In many countries, WhatsApp's data usage is zero-rated, which makes WhatsApp more attractive than Signal, Telegram, etc.

    One thing to consider –especially at "non-standard" tipping establishments– is how much of the tip goes to the server/cashier. CBC's Marketplace did some investigating [1], and fou…

    It's certainly real. What was it about the video that made you think it's generative? That it's surrealistic?

    I believe there's also an exemption for Canadian citizens. [1] and [2] (Cmd-f "Canadian") [1] https://www.cbp.gov/about/congressional-resources/testimony/... [2] https://www.cbp.go…

    One thing I'll mention is that cold brew doesn't need to be put in the fridge to "brew". It can be left out on the counter at room temperature. As a result, this takes the brew tim…

    Kanopy is great, and very nearly as good as the mainstream streaming platforms in terms of selection and software quality. Hoopla, however, is abysmal both in selection (though thi…

    Found a bug on the first search I ran, where the right side is preferred, despite having more sun (10.55%) vs. the left side (6.64%). Not sure how. All other searches gave more exp…

    I don't know specifically about your symptoms, but one thing it could be is the carbonation. All draught Guinness (including Guinness Draught cans) is not carbonated with just CO2,…

    I have to disagree w.r.t. UI and non-standard being preferable for a pro app. Having used Drawing Things regularly for the last few weeks, I still get confused by certain interacti…

    This only covers what data apps store/collect. An app can have a clean 'Privacy' disclaimer ("The developer does not collect any data from this app") but still require access to Ph…

    In addition, if hops (or other herbs) were used in the boil, the acids from the hops (what gives beer its bitter bite), even in small amounts, would provide anti-bacterial benefits…

    :( I would've tried to determine the cause of the crash with that specific file in my off time, provided that I could isolate the code in the Grammarly extension in Chrome. The mai…

    Is it the EU that keeps pushing it? Or just some (now non-)member states? I'm personally only familiar with the UK being obsessed about it.

    I don't believe the fear/apprehension is specifically about immigration of peoples, but the likelihood that we'll see intergroup conflicts (fuelled by fear mongering rhetoric that …

    Like the other comment pointed out, I understood 'X' to mean a stand in for iMessage. It didn't occur to me that we were referring to FKA Twitter

    I live in a mid-sized Canadian city, and the collection of DVDs and Blurays available from the city library system is impressive. A fair bit of obscure/older films, as well as new …

    20-30 feet change over what timeframe? The resolution of the chart data in the article is about 30 seconds. While I think the fluctuation is due to the accuracy of instrumentation,…

    Cat collars getting stuck can be a problem regardless of a bulky item being attached (though, it will probably be exacerbated by a tracker), so a breakaway/quick-release collar is …

    My reading of the parent comment suggests that they're in favour of decriminalizing them, but not permitting the commercial sale of them. Acquisition would then be achieved by e.g.…

    I’ve also observed my kitchen’s CO2 levels consistently going from 650 to 1200 while cooking (or to 900 if using the hood vent), and dropping down to baseline 60 minutes later. Thi…
