Then don’t sell a lifetime license I don’t disagree with you. I’ve had several “lifetime licenses”, some of which were quite costly, become varying states of useless. Some were acceptable (no more updates because the vendor was acquired&#x2

Yeah. Grant and Nick worked on modernist cuisine but it’s become clear they were more of the chef side where Chris was more of the food science side. Chris does have a youtube channel now that has some okay content but the best stuff is lik

I never got a joule because I couldn’t fathom why they would build a device without physical controls. It seemed like such a hostile decision imo bc even back then I had cheaper “smart” devices like lightbulbs where the apps were quickly ab

Are you saying this based on actual evidence or based on supposition and anecdote? The oft repeated claim is the replication crisis as you mention but this isn’t limited to social science nor is social science the worst offender. Replicatio

Chefsteps has been in that direction for a very long time. I was in their community early on, like 2013 or so, and the content they put out then was truly excellent. A paywall was reasonable really; the classes were well researched and info

we go to other counselors, generally. although some do specifically specialize in counseling counselors, often who have quite a bit more experience and act as supervisors supervision in counseling is odd. it's ethically obligated but n

For what it’s worth I’m on the other side of this. I’ve been a licensed counselor for 13 years and working in behavioral health for 17-18 years and I’m itching to change careers. Basically the opposite of the post above. The work can be rew

this argument comes up every time and it always ignores a critical aspect of medicine: not all procedures can be “shopped for”. If I have cancer and I need to start treatment as soon as possible I’m not going to waste precious time comparin

Microcenter still does but it costs 50% more for worse quality parts and the selection is still not great. Handy if you need flux or solder in a pinch though

The limit was mainly due to lack of hdmi support. There are obviously some crts with hdmi but they’re fairly uncommon as display manufacturers basically abandoned crts quickly in favor of significantly lighter yet larger display tech that w

I’d imagine it has to be a regulatory nightmare. There’s really no options on the market. First alert at this point just has the zwave one that can’t be hardwired or interconnected so it’s not to code in many locales. Nest is pretty good bu

Yeah 0 chance I would drop that much cash on this from an unknown brand. Even from a reputable brand I would be wary. I still feel burned from buying a few hundred dollars of “smart” smoke detectors from firstalert, a smoke detector company

Less downsizing and more no longer upgrading and buying new shit.

Agreed and why when I do purchase I only purchase physical. The digital downloads of games I have are either games that were so hilariously cheap on sale my moral compass didn’t matter (eg marked down to sub $5) or the free downloads I get

I can sort of understand ending life for allowing purchasing on the platform but why would you not create servers for the new consoles in a way that allows you to continue to serve downloads or at the very least whatever licensing necessary

That actually highlights the other issue of fragmentation: sometimes I would bother to download the app and register but then we’d fall out because I wouldn’t regularly check an app for 1 or 2 people. It’s notifications get lost in the sea

I disagree. I’ve lost touch with numerous casual acquaintances over the years because they went to one app and I didn’t or vice versa. If there was a better effort at standardization it would have been easier to maintain these connections r

A core element of the problem is that Americans are vehemently opposed to involuntary long term psychiatric treatment. Long term, in this context, meaning anything longer than 72 hours or so. So there’s a push to decriminalize because the a

I worked in a place that had several apple trees in the parking lot that led to a similar issue. The apples would ferment then drunk squirrels would chase people around sometimes. It was pretty funny unless it happened to you

Some manufacturers don’t allow this. My partner got a 22 Subaru forester and the audible alerts cannot be turned off without disabling the system altogether. although to be fair they are relative unobtrusive most of the time unless they are

YouTube premium pricing is ridiculous. $14 a month for android and $19 a month for iOS? Get out of here How much could they possibly make from ads in a given month off a single user. Best case scenario with a user that watches YouTube like

Can that progression even happen anymore? Call me cynical but I think we are long past the days of “the digg migration to Reddit”, “MySpace exodus to Facebook”, leaving vbulletin forums en masse for social media, leaving irc and Usenet for
