There's a very interesting split-brain experiment [1] and Joe Scott's video about it [2] TL;DW: Doctors treated corpus callosotomy by severing the bundle of nerve fibers that connect hemispheres of the brain. The surgery effective

I had this (?) happen. I have a soundbar hooked up through spdif in my pc. It automatically switches sources, so I can play music through airplay and then have it play sounds from pc when I open youtube etc. So it switches from airplay musi

Exactly, I totally forgot there even are existing apis that return open source dog and cat pictures

So much this, blogs add an image for the sake of having an image. At this point it would be much better to just have a random dog or a cat pic, it is as relevant to your blog post as your random generated thing, but I'd prefer seeing a

Woah yes I found those on YouTube, didn’t expect them to be fake. This kind of makes sense but also makes me very disappointed of humanity

Found a few online webcams, but I'm not really sure I saw the earthquake. People didn't even seem to stop on the webcam I was watching. Lots of cars on the bridge afterwards though while before it there were much less, idk

People overestimate progress in physical world. 2035: robot population will soon be larger than the human one I'd bet that in most places 9 years is about the time needed to build a residential building. I think a good way to think abo

No, reheating for sure will evaporate some compounds and might even overextract it, especially if there are still tiny particles in the coffee - like in moka or ibrik (cezve). Again, drink your shot at room temp or close to it. If brewed co

Agree to disagree. Espresso, pour overs and even cupping shows you different aspects of the coffee when it cools. In fact, if you follow SCA cupping protocol, one of the most important parts is to evaluate the coffee at room temperature. I

It is a myth that an espresso shot 'dies' if you let it sit. A good espresso shot won't become worse.

Yeah this practice needs to end. You buy a stack of hardware+software that does X. Imagine if pizza consisted of software and hardware and you only bought hardware but software could be changed by dev/seller. Now your pizza shrunk in s

Your fridge became dependent on updates. Then they added ads to front panel. Then they'll say that you need a subscription to use holiday mode. Then it no longer receives update and touch panel stops working because it can't conne

So technically they just said that their printers would be less popular if Orcaslicer ceased to exist.

Indeed. When I was just starting every blog and tweet screamed micro-management sucks. It does if the manager does this all the time. But sometimes it is extremely important and prevents disasters. I guess best managers just develop the hun

Support systems often do this - they stream message and agents already see what you are typing. I know a few banking apps that do this.

Artifact by instagram founders. I discovered it (and thought it's great) by reading their termination announcement.

This is great. I thought about a different model even before plasticlist: make a subscription and test various products, but people will have a number of upvotes based on their sub streak. They vote for food to test, and then you show resul

I suppose there are Corsi–Rosenthal box designs out there for 3d printing. We don't have filters like this here, otherwise I'd make such a diy purifier instead of buying one

I use a different air purifier, a pretty basic xiaomi one. There are two downsides: it is quite big (I don't mind really) and it can be loud at a high speed. I host movie nights with friends and sometimes someone might even smoke in th

I did not say it was something like an m82. I just wanted to say I believe it wasn't a pistol.

He kicked back hard, so the shooter was using a powerful rifle, I suppose a sniper rifle. Wound is huge, not a pistol wound. He was shot in the neck because the shooter is amateur and didn't account for the bullet drop on this distance

I liked the idea of type-c GPUs but there are so many problems again that it's just useless. It also should be something better than just a GPU tho, have HDMI eARC etc.

Wow that's cool, Gabe is an underrated CEO. Thanks for posting this since I do not follow anything gaming anymore. I hope they'll fix their rumored team wars inside the company.

I agree and already got two minipcs I selfhost a lot of stuff now. I just now realized it is basically the future Gabe Newell predicted and wanted to make with Steam Machines [1], but he was wrong by targeting gamers and a little too early

I successfully removed this coating from my razer mouse using alcohol, it was pretty easy to do. The coating felt good when I unboxed the mouse, but yeah it turned into this chewed gum mess, now it's just plastic which is ok. Also turn

I wonder if that's actually illegal, because it feels very close to false ads etc. It seems legal, but I think courts would side with customers. As if google would say that yes, emails are $5/mo, but there's actually a limit
