Someone needs to turn that site into nothing but goatse stat

I have another that I ran through a 16x upscaling model but nothing has called for a 12k x 10k pikachu yet

I’ll believe it when I see it

Fucking finally

Yup, this is the way. My e-reader weighs less than my phone and is about 1/4th the size of a hardback or trade paperback with the cover or a protective sleeve. It’s a game changer for travel, commuting, waiting time before appointments, etc.

I’ve read 200+ books in the span of time I might have read 20 if I had to throw an actual book in my bag on the way out the door.

I rarely turn the sound on for video content on social media, the audio track is very rarely worthwhile

The best we can do is a 4th straight year of record profits

When you use them heavily some of the incremental improvements are nice to have. I swapped my mid 2010s Nook for an ~8in Boox 3y ago or so and it was a huge upgrade.

I mean, no one’s telling you that you can’t or that you shouldn’t. I just like having two decades of reading material on tap at any time without needing to lug a library around.

One of these decades folks will realize that a good e-reader is as game changing as the iPod was.

Up through Android 14 everything boils down to different programs to manage a work profile. I’ve always used Shelter or just straight up used the built in work profile support in LineageOS.

I don’t know if it’s possible to create more than one separate space.

Edit: the only way I’ve found to make two separate app containers on android <= 14 is a combination of a work profile and Samsung’s secure folder. I don’t know of any other sandbox technique.

Propublica is funded by recurring donations from a wealthy couple. Common dreams is subscription and donation driven. Relying on the wealthy to fund free content isn’t sustainable at scale.

Because high quality content needs income to continue existing, and you generally get that income via a subscription or the people making your content run out of money and go get jobs.

Edit: just look at what’s happened to journalism over the last 30y if you’re having a hard time understanding why paying journalists and other writers is important. Very few high quality outlets have survived, and they’re largely on life support if they’ve not been bought up to push some billionaire’s politics.

This 👆 - you stop noticing that you smell when you smell all the time. Setting up tests is just avoiding the real solution which is an uncomfortably honest conversation.

Get him some of that crystal stick deodorant, it actually works until your armpit bacteria adjust to it. Usually you’ll get a year or so use out of it before selection grows exclusively resistant bacteria.

I had a housemate who was into Facebook health influencers at one point, absolutely nothing would reach him when we told him “you stink, you need to keep yourself clean.” We had to punt him, the BO was just one of the problems we had with him.

Oh yeah, that’s the cheap part when compared to medical care

Edit: imagine monthly premiums ranging from $700-1200 with an out of pocket (monthly) max spend of $16k+. Oh, and dental and vision are separate policies.

“The rapture started and I was sent back here, God really wants us to stop using fossil fuels”

Cuba, for medical and/or dental care I can’t afford in the US
