In a way, the YouTube channels I follow are like cable: they produce content of different genres and topics on a regular basis and serve it to me. There's another way to use YouTube, though: you can search for a video and find what you

Looks so nice and it's lots of fun. Great job! With that said, I hope no one ever uses it, it's terrible.

Would also be trivial for the author to add a warning for users that have that setting enabled. Something like "Heads-up: you have requested reduced motion, and this library disabled animations as per your request"

AI should not be allowed in photos of products being sold, period. That's pure false advertising. Disclosing is not enough.

That just adds to my confusion. Some like the chain icon are really small and have minimal detail. Others like the trashcan are huge, and definitely not as small as it could be while still conveying it's meaning clearly

I think icons are nice, but using icons instead of labels, is a terrible design decision in principle. It might be acceptable for your power users, or if you know your project is only used by you and your household or something like that.

Nice project. The icon sizes seem a bit too inconsistent, but if that's what your projects need, I guess you must have your reasons.

> Streaming is how everyone consumes music these days It's pretty dangerous to assume that what you do is what everyone else does too. > so everything new gets released there Previous comment was probably referring to older music

Exactly. I mean sure, people were definitely pirating music. But lots of people are own huge collections of CDs, and you could also just borrow other people's CDs to rip them. We were kids without money, but older folks at the time did

That's fine, if that's your choice. Reddit was awesome at first because it was a hot pot of cultures. But we lost that control. You don't see what you want unless you fight hard against the algo.

Without getting into whether the price is fair, there's not much that can be done there. Lots of solar users are using the grid without paying otherwise, and there's a real grid cost.

That's a weirdly optimistic view of technology. Specially the comparison to homophobia and racism. Yes, tech has solved people's basic but real needs for communication, banking, entertainment, etc. Then after a certain level, with

Is that because Bankers have mostly disappeared as a profession people deal with in person?

This is probably showing both our ages that this is new to you and very old for me.

I don't have smart washers, but I did build a smart ESP32-based [0] zigbee numerical display. Then I use Home Assistant to send the current electricity price to that display when the price changes, and send a notification to all users&

There's also the electricity transport costs. We're talking about the pure electricity cost here.

Whenever you see people complaining that the EU is "too slow", more often than not it's because they benefit directly from EU rushing things without thinking.

We did an 8 hour ride on a rental recently in Central Europe, mostly through major motorways. The car dashboard disagreed with (apple) maps which disagreed with the road signage so often. The beeping was infuriating.

I once looked up those TV codes and ended up factory resetting the TV just to jailbreak out of the hotel mode and use the Hdmi.

Can you imagine having a hobby and not trying to monetize it? I really think we've completely lost the plot.

Hotel TV's often have all inputs blocked out actually. It's really stupid.

I definitely recommend checking out all top games from this competition over the years. Quite a few gems.

So much happened since 2018 that this ruling feels ancient now. It was about Google making unfair deals with OEMs: > In 2018, the European Commission slapped Google with the record-breaking penalty on the grounds that it abused Android’s

To me the cherry on top was that they started modifying how third party icons look to match the Liquid Glass. People started complaining to us that our app icon looked blurry because of it.
