I usually get looked at like an alien when I tell people I repair my phone. Here, it's usual to just get a new phone every year or two. Usually iPhones of course. As a student, I find it insane to spend 1k+ a year on smartphones. So in

I think it's very unfortunate you see it that way, but I guess you can try distracting yourself from it directly after waking up. Just immediately stand up and start thinking of your day, rather than last night. It's the opposite

Not a researcher, just interested in the topic: I see it like this: You spend a third of your life asleep. By not "utilizing" your dreams, you effectively waste that time. dream recall is very easy to learn and even easier if you

Maybe checkout gladiabots[1]? I have no affiliation with them, but I did play around with it for a few weeks a couple of years ago. It's not really traditional programming, but I think it is quite fun coming up with strategies. [1] ht

Many good suggestions in here already, so I'm just gonna add Space Engineers. It's a voxel-based spaceship building game, where you can quite literally design your spaceship from scratch. If that's not enough for you, you can

This would pretty much kill the current industry (*as we know it). F2P/mobile games are monetized through Wales, but they're only willing to spend if there's enough incentive (e.g. prestige). That's not given if there&#x

It does work though. "Escape from Tarkov" and "It takes two" are just some of the more noteworthy ones. There's tons more on steam. It's just the mobile market that's screwed entirely. Which I find odd, be

Why would you want to go out of your way to send bogus data to the manufacturer? I'm all for being able to choose whether or not to disclose that data, but then we'll also have to accept different choices than ours. There's n

The "notes" I'm taking are mostly slack reminders on important messages when I know I have to come back to it soon. Also, because I'm very much still a junior, I started breaking down my tasks and writing checklists usin

> How do we stop this? I am not sure, honestly. I remember the Article 13/17 protests. To me it seemed like even though thousands of people went to protest, they simply did not care. And back then, it was about Copyright. Now, a gro

Whenever this comes up, I ask myself: What are the reasons kids learn math? Reading poems, doing chemistry, or any other topic for that matter. Naturally, there will always be someone who likes a given topic and there will be someone absolu
