Exceptions are possible. Money isn’t everything for everyone.

Fl. Oz are actually nothing to do with weight. They are volume.

For each fluid oz. use 30 ml

It’s only approximate but the official measurements for nutrition actually do it in the US so it’s not a real unit anyway anymore.

Honestly, Zoom just has a hilariously high frequency of vulnerabilities being discovered.

I’m sorry, I started joking because you weren’t being serious either.

Wait, you were being serious?

Well I’ve got a solution for you!

Just insert this adapter into the 3.5mm jack and it will be blocked for you. It’ll no longer be wasted space because this adapter is a useful place to store several grains of rice for a snack.

Unfortunately you do lose a feature as a result of using this adapter, it will stop one of the speakers from working and degrade your audio quality.

But you shouldn’t complain about anything removing a feature, or degrading your audio quality. You’ve got a new feature of being able to store rice!

You can even buy special fairphone sustainable rice from us. With only a small 300% mark up but an incredible 80% of the sustainability of already available rice. It comes in green!

The “demographic” of human being who doesn’t want to wreck the planet if Fairphone’s target.

If Fairphone is not trying to be universal anymore you should see that as a problem. So should every fairphone customer.

I’ll buy a more sustainable phone than the fairphone when my phone loses support in 2027. I’ll encourage everyone to buy a more sustainable product today.

I’d much prefer a 3.5mm jack

There are sandwich artists and sanitation engineers. Everyone knows they get paid like crap.

Unfortunately “prompt engineers” seem to be getting paid small fortunes when their job is essentially using a massive amount of computing power to commit various levels of intellectual property theft they hope no one will notice.

New? Ru Paul’s drag race hit the mainstream at least 10 years ago.

Are they bringing back the headphone jack?

My Nokia should last until 2027 with updates but it would be nice to know my options if it breaks.

The stand up bit that launched a career.

The problem is artists often make their actual living doing basic boiler plate stuff that gets forgotten quickly.

In graphics it’s Company logos, advertising, basic graphics for businesses.

In writing it’s copy for websites, it’s short articles, it’s basic stuff.

Very few artists want to do these things, they want to create the original work that might not make money at all. That work potentially being a winning lottery ticket but most often being an act of expressing themselves that doesn’t turn into a payday.

Unfortunately AI is taking work away from artists. It can’t seem to make very good art yet but it can prevent artists who could make good art getting to the point of making it.

It’s starving out the top end of the creative market by limiting the easy work artists could previously rely on to pay the bills whilst working on the big ideas.

I’m sticking with relevance. A >25% rise is what we’re talking about.

A 0.001 difference on a 0.004 total would be worth showing.

No it doesn’t.

It’s meant to illustrate a change and it does so perfectly fine. It’s not a scientific paper.

It’s a 32-34% increase looking at the graph. That’s significant enough to shout about.

Imagine any change you could make surprising competition by 25% in any market. That’s huge.

During setup there is a keyboard shortcut to get to command prompt.

Then a command you can use.

Then the machine restarts and you can setup without a Microsoft account.

(For reference I’m on my dual booting Linux phase. I’d like to ditch it altogether but Wayland isn’t quite there yet and x never will be.)

Wrong way to approach it.

To parents, start using the word wrong.

Any time you kid does something cool you might have done as a kid. “Awesome, that’s so boomer.”

If they can’t do their homework. “You’re such a boomer.”

It drives kids up the wall when parents use slang right, but when you use it wrong it’s even more infuriating.

iPods had an 82% share of the US market at the time the term was first used.

At the time a “broadcast” to you iPod made the name podcast pretty understandable.

And there’s not much else I could think of to call it given technology at the time.

MP3 player was the generic term. But MP3 cast feels clunky.

I did hear audioblog used. But they weren’t all blogs.

It really comes down to the fact that at the time everyone knew “pod” meant “iPod” and that’s it.

It could be even simpler.

If they couldn’t put the date as 29th Feb yesterday most card payment machines wouldn’t allow them to connect. Especially if it was “March 1st”

Much like the reasons for the “leap second smear” Tom mentions at the end of that video. Banks really care about continuity and knowing the order of events.

I’m going to watch this again.
