Has anyone here read the book? I enjoyed the film and wondered how they compared.
Spent the weekend watching my wife grind through all the TOTK side quests.
Meanwhile I plowed through two ebooks.
Win for both of us!
Why do communities exist for - to pick an example - atheists? In lots of parts of the world, there is huge social pressure to conform to a specific religion. If you decide not to, or leave the religion, or have questions, it can be a terrifying and lonely experience.
It's the same here. Lots of us feel huge pressure from family, friends, co-workers, and society to do something that we don't want to do. So it is nice to have a community where we can discuss that and reassure each other. Because it is difficult to do what is right when everyone is telling you you're wrong.
Just got a new solar battery installed, so I'm going to spend some time poking it and making sure it's working. COME ON SUNSHINE!
A recall petition is only available under very limited circumstances.
https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn05089/
Nadine has neither been suspended nor convicted of a crime. So there's no petition.
Even if there were, the threshold for the petition succeeding is only 10% of registered voters. And you can bet that opposition parties would easily he able to drum up that level of support.
I enjoyed Portraits of Childfree Wealth - https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2023/03/book-review-portraits-of-childfree-wealth-jay-zigmont/
The book is free and has a fairly realistic look at the (American) childfree experience.
Six years ago today we launched https://openbenches.org/ - it is a crowdsourced map of memorial benches from around the world.
Uses OSM for displaying the maps and letting uploaders pick the exact right spot.
There's an API and data-dump so it can be incorporated into OSM - but our data isn't always as precise as needed. I'm still trying to work out a way to map an OSM bench ID to our ID.
If you're out mapping and spot a memorial bench, please do submit a geotagged photo to our site :-)
Magnets. (How do they work?)
I replaced all my USB-C and Micro-USB connectors with magnetic ones. No more orientation worries, no more fumbling in the dark, no more not-inserting-it-hard-enough. Just bring the two into proximity and them magically snap together.
Bliss.
OMG! I still have my DataLink watch somewhere. I remember thinking it was amazing and showing off all the phone numbers I'd programmed into it.
Will your code work with any flashing LED? Or does it need special hardware?
I like it. As others have said, it is a rebadged Mulvad. When I got it, Mozilla was slightly cheaper. The apps for Linux work well and the speed seems decent.
Thanks! We have chatted with OSM. At the time we started there wasn't an inscription field. I think there now is. We've also signed a waiver so they can use our data if they wish.
The slight issue is that our photos are generally taken with a phone's GPS and may not be suitably accurate for their needs.
We also aim to be a lot easier to add to than OSM. So there aren't many checks.
OSM is a big, well funded project with lots of users and governance. OpenBenches is just me and my wife. We're not aiming to be them 😀
All my gadgets use USB-C. Bluetooth headphones, eReader, laptop, printer, power bank, 360 camera, they all charge via USB-C.
Hell, even my neck cooler runs off it.
