I read your comment before seeing the robot and that blank stare from those beady eyes made me lose it. Truly it does look like that.

Plenty of wrong here, considering Lithuanian and Latvian are utterly unintelligible to slavs, save for loanwords, but Slavic languages between themselves retain some level of intelligibility, which even spawned two competing constructed lan

How is "Marsaxlokk" really pronounced? I've heard that word a few times, but never from a native. Google translate can't help me here, as it doesn't seem to have Maltese text-to-speech.

Yes and my comment is just relaying what professionals have to say about the phenomenon: Bottom line up front: the way out is to set aside some time for a menial task that isn't mentally taxing. Screens are a particularly effective mea

Who is in the market for a product that doesn't work as advertised?

"sensitive" undersells it. Apple in its refund form has an option to select "unauthorised in-app purchase by a minor" as the reason. I was not aware how predatory this market has become until an annual subscription after

To make matters worse gas peaker plants cost approximately €1mln/MW as well, so at the cost of that plant you could have massively overprovisioned solar, backup gas plants and plenty of money for fuel to spare which you wouldn't b

It appears that the backend is written in TS, while the frontend in JS. Personally I separate church and state by writing tests in JS and application code in TS. If you're asking why these languages at all when this and that other lang

I couldn't get past installing required PHP extensions, as my hosting provider doesn't allow for that. Overall it's no WordPress instance that works everywhere.

Conservatives around the world seem to be comparing notes because over here the now former president pardoned quite a few high-profile cases and at least one before the sentence was given, which was bizarre, as you can't do that and th

Perhaps it's my pre-AutoTune ear, but to me the audio still has hints of perfect pitch and companding. For the former it sounds much like Machine Head in the Invincible series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DME86-Qucs

Devtools say 40.23 MB / 13 MB transferred. Even on 1000Mbps it needed a moment. Works for me on Ubuntu 24 and Firefox.

I can confirm that is works decently well with a sunny roof window in the background, which is normally enough for people to complain that my face is too dark. 8yo me, who instinctively tried to look behind the display's field of view

You could say they were the 21th century version of those. Looked like a normal cigarette, smelled like sulfur and burnt tea leaves.

That's just our word for them, just like Protestants is a Catholic umbrella term for most other denominations.

I recall a friend of mine smoking cigarettes smuggled from Belarus back in 2006 costing 2,30PLN a pack, so less than €0,60 at the time. Considering how light the product was, that translated to ~€20 per kilogram, with about 20% of this figu

CO2 dissolves really well in Perfluorodecalin. EDIT: I mistook solubility of oxygen by volume for that by mass - very different figure and of course effectively much lower.

Doesn't account for e.g. British pensioners who, back before Brexit, would buy property in Spain and spend their retirement there, putting considerable pressure on local healthcare. Similarly, there's a growing resentment in Japan

Japan's unemployment rate over the last decade averaged below 3%. That is essentially full employment with jobs to spare. Hardly any takers for those positions.

Why shouldn't they be? They're not competing for local resources, which is the main point of contention regarding immigration.

Happy to hear you'll be including this data. I've already found my board, but this is not my last battery-powered project.

Also anyone who is creating battery-powered projects would be interested in power consumption figures. I for one learned way too late that an ESP32 (whichever model really), despite being massively more complicated, will typically have a mu

The other day I randomly took a look at car sale listings and found a 2yo Tesla Model 3 long range with 43k km for less than half the MSRP. There's about a dozen such offers on that one site that I checked and that's just Teslas.

I have friends and relatives who went through this process and what I believe is not repeated enough to the patient's immediate social circle is that the recovery process takes months and the procedure itself can leave lasting change
