There was something in the manual if I remember correctly. Which you wouldn’t necessarily have if you rented the game.

I used to be an avid reader but as I got older and busier I just couldn’t find the time.

Then when I did have time there was always distractions, or other things I could be doing.

So now I read primarily via audiobooks through Libby and my library.

I read 130 books or so last year that way.

Mowing the yard? Audiobook.

Long drive? Audiobook.

Waiting at the doctors? Audiobook.

Dishes? Audiobook.

And then when I’m really invested I’ll relax by playing some mindless game while I listen. Think match 3 or bejeweled.

Just engaging enough to keep me from getting bored while listening but not so much that I can’t do both.

Balatro, BABA is you? Bad candidates for playing and listening.

The last couple of years I burned through the wheel of time series, all of Brandon Sanderson’s books (except skyward which I haven’t gotten to), a lot of Adrian Tchaikovsky, and others.

Considering how we use it. It is absolutely fascinating. Same for magnetism

I just updated yesterday to the 1.3.5 release.

Unfortunately now when I use my thumb to quickly scroll posts and comments it doesn’t respond.

But if I stop, and move very slowly it does register the scroll. After it finally does scroll then for about 10 seconds or so it behaves normally.

This doesn’t happen, however, in the top half of the screen. Just the bottom half.

Thank you again for all the hard work you do on the app.

They seem to excel at it.

A two panel meme with Candace and her mom from the cartoon Phineas and Ferb. They are alone in the car with Candace’s mom driving.

In the top panel sits Candace in the passenger seat, smiling and gesturing with her hands to show excitement and she’s speaking.

Text at the bottom of this panel says “they are so nice to put alt-text under their memes just for people like me to get the joke.”

In the bottom panel the same scene but this time her hands are at rest together while Candace’s mom looks at her and is speaking.

Text at the bottom of this panel says “I worry about you sometimes Candace.”

I know it’s a joke but I prefer the tab option. It’s easy to convert tabs to any particular spacing or code point width. It can also vary, if wanted, based on terminal or editor type.

People with worse eyesight can have a wider indentation while those who choose can opt for something more compact

So in JavaScript there’s the assignment

=

and the comparator is

==

Since there’s no types JS will do implicit conversion before comparison when using == in a case like this

if(false == '0'){
    //this is true
}

But with === it doesn’t. It means literally compare these

if(false === '0'){
    //this is false
}else{
    //so this will execute instead 
}

But this, however, will

var someState = false;
 if(someState === false){
    //this is true
}

Mercator Projection. So many ways to try to represent a sphere on a flat 2D plane but none are perfect

And this “True Size” map is fun to play with.

I got a singer 8606 from a yard sale and am having trouble finding a manual online and what parts work with it?

E.g. compatible bobbins, needles, etc.

I found this interesting and was wondering how some of the larger instances handle the issues they outline such as

Copyright/DMCA Safe Harbor CSAM Law enforcement/warrants/info inquiries

And not included (since it’s focus is on US legal issues) but I’m curious about would be other regulations such as EU user data retention
