because macos fanboys are rich hipsters and spend large amounts of money on software and accessories for their already expensive computers. Linux users usually aren’t very alike, the first 4,5 % isn’t anyhow.

This looks very promising. Thanks for linking to it here. I hope it gets launched soon.

even the little bits of grass around the peaks in foreground could actually be used. I’m amazed how risky cows behaviour is regarding to the abyss, and goats somehow are just completely not afraid of heights at all and hop around on 400 meter cliffs like a walk in the park. So you can grow food (meat+milk) on mountain sides during summer

thanks for the links!

Exactly what I’m looking for! I’ld like back sleeping but with a slightly tilted, side supported head. Lean head all the way = neck pain. Head straight = can’t fall asleep. I’ve tried stuff with backsleeping+ side support for leaning the head, but the extra pillow on the head side isn’t strong enough (doesn’t last) and it all gets too hot around the head.

but they might be worth a lot in 30 years if you take good care of them!

30 mins of a German professor who all his life studied doing dishes and how dishwashers work. (in juicy German accent English).

The answer is soaking.

If you really live in a 500 yo house, the walls are probably like 1 meter thick full stone/brick and the windows are tiny. They stay cold in summer, it’s like living in a cave.

The much more common 60-100 yo houses on the other hand…

Passive cooling and designing buildings to not overheat during summer in the first place is the way. And phoenix or Las Vegas shouldn’t be much more than a gas station, they’re unlivable hellholes without permanently pumping enormous amounts of energy in.

Not just you. I hate AC. Awful being in hotel rooms where it’s AC all the way and you can’t even really open a window in the room. I get sore throat and usually they’re really noisy too, so I can’t sleep without earplugs. I very much prefer opening a window and airing thoroughly in the evening and then during the night leaving window on kip. Travelling many days or weeks in AC vehicles really makes me sick.

Money isn’t gone, resources are gone.

It is. I use it as such regularly. Keyboard+mouse+screen = browsing firefox as usual. Works quite well. Libreoffice, okular, signal desktop… I’ve used worse computers in recent years, steamdeck desktop experience is better than many 4 to 5 year old cheap laptops with win10 or win11.

There’s one good use case for me: produce a bigload of trialcontent in no time for load testing new stuff. “Make 2000 yada yada with column x and z …”. Keeps testing fun and varied while lots of testdata and that it’s all nonsense doesn’t matter.

I’ve found that testing code or formulas with LLM is a 50/50 now. Very often replying “use function blabla() and such snd so” very detailed instructions while this suggested function just doesn’t exist at all in certain language asked for… it’s still something I’ld try if I’m very stuck tho, never know.

Better in many regards but for sure not all. Airships could run a lot more quietly for example, that has some value. Until they explode ofcourse, that’s rather loud.

Some solar panels on top of the balloon, nowadays you can even create your H on the go from the H2O in the air!

How much would we save if we’d somehow be able to debloat and deshittify the Internet and all devices? Climate impact, overconsumption of unnecessary crap, mental health care…

Tuna on pizza is so dry. They don’t belong together.

are you going to rob them while they’re away?

Dunno what you might expect with obscure or niche, but if you’re fishing for random non algorithm suggestions on something you could watch, I’ll give you this: Fantastic Planet (1973)

i dunno, especially the music is really vast availability of full albums etc. Youtube + ublock is kinda my go to music. Used to search and store gigabytes, but it’s just not the same, not as easy. If youtube dies (ergo: it succeeds in blocking adblocking and third party such as newpipe), i’ll have a hard time finding alternatives tbh, that are just as user friendly.
