Solo tech fun: - Set a long parental control password, you won't remember. - Write it into some file. - Put that file into an encrypted container, with a short to medium generated random password you won't be shown . To access the

Dopamine is part of pleasure too, but most importantly it's "anticipation of reward" or how long you can focus on an action until your brain evaluates the result. This is what's broken in ADHD and why people affected pro

> Like, how does the body know that it should release more dopamin when I scroll HN than when I learn Rust, or ride my bike? I think dopamine is not "reward", but "anticipation of reward". It's how long your brai

Worth noting, we're actually drowning in cow shit. In Germany the meat lobby is actually pushing for disposing even more into the grounds, conventional or ecological farming. We could reduce meat production a lot, before running out of

This. I just want hjkl and dd in every editor, but I don't use any other vim idiom often, and things like multiple cursors or alt+up/down move lines are the editor's fancy features I rely on most. (Sadly the VS Code vim plugi

This is a hidden downside of having proprietary defacto monopolies in tech. As long as the Adobe suite is the default in digital content creation, piracy is the default gateway to that profession. I don't care about Adobe's loss,

I assume you shop in the dude's section. In the dudette's market there is polyester everywhere.

Also synthetic fibers are mostly used in "fast fashion", out side of functional fabrics. I am a trans woman and when I switched the fashion sections I was shocked by the amount of low quality plastic shit marketed at girls/wo

True. I deeply regret not spending idk 70€ more getting an iPhone SE instead of the Moto G5 Plus. Last security update was January 2019, as I got about 2 of 3 years of "support". Somehow I was assuming there was going to be an off

I doubt the transportation has a huge impact, but either way it's an issue of its own. You don't have to eat vegan products grown across the globe. Bringing this up is as relevant as talking about the footprint of the clothes you

I think this study does not address my point and includes dairy products as their partial footprint of growing cow. The problem is: no meat, no milk. The low footprint of vegetarianism only works as long as there are meat eaters eating the

Oh look it's even worse: only about 10% of intake energy is fixated (plant matter -> meat) in the next trophic level. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecological_efficiency Wikipedia says ATP generation alone l

This "argument" gets repeated over and over... Every plant based product is better than their equivalent animal (warm-blooded mamals) product. Animals radiate away about 3/4 of the energy they consume. This means generally sp

Do you have a source on that? A source which takes into account "milk cows" being slaughtered and eaten after max. 4 years too? Accounting for the fact the cows only produce milk when having baby cows and some of these being male?

For me the audio stream crashes in the browser, when I allow microphone access, but mute it on the OS side (after about 5 min). I think whatever dies is connected to measuring latency or something. I assume Zoom actually listens to your mic

I think, in the end user driven " rapid content curation " is the problem itself. All toxic twists aside: The content we all need may not be the most comfortable in terms of how much time we need investing getting the info. I won&

Most people I know see nationality as the low hanging fruit of identities. You did nothing, no achievement, no struggle, you feast on other people's work. As I said people here tend to be grateful to be born or at least live in such a

This. I want to write texts on a German keyboard and code on an American one. I've put "alt gr" on caps lock, which kinda makes the pain of 3rd layer curly braces bearable, but every time I reinstall my machine I need to figu

I am living in Germany. Most people I know are very happy to live and/or have German citizenship. Most people I know here do care for the collective, want to improve things (or rather fantasize about it). Why do you need to dumb this d
