Seconded. For reference, Wim Hof is derivative of Tummo, which is quite an old technique and it's easy to find examples of how to practice. But like you said it is pretty easy to get the basics of Wim Hof free online without subscrib

Yep. The first week I joined clubhouse I spent >10 hours on the platform, it was fascinating to see high profile people drop into rooms and be able to participate in ad hoc conversation with them. But the notifications were constant. O

> But your opinion does? It must matter to you, since you spent a few paragraphs on it. Guessing that what ljm meant was that those opinions shouldn't be important in their personal choice about what to listen to or not listen to.

What is the incentive for a 51% attack (on Bitcoin specifically) Wouldn't it take a large number of resources and coordinated effort to do this? And then the result of a successful attack means that the value essentially drops to zero

When I was in college and early 20s, I usually had 2-4 different jobs at any given time. There's a demographic component to this that seems missing, given that we have two big baby booms behind Gen Xers (millennials who I guess are old

Miranda was (is) awesome, I love that it is styled after the original ICQ client. It still worked with Google Chat and FB Messenger the last time I tried it (<2 years), but the list of people I know who actively use gchat has declined f

Amazing. I used WP6.2 to write papers in high school and remember not only the tables and line drawings but you could also place images and annotate them. It's hard to remember how that worked but in those days it seemed those things

It seems like I have been infrequently using Audacity for close to 20 years now which is surprising to think about. I've used it to slice up tons of live recordings, mix multitrack audio, clean up, remove background noise, dub aging ta

The answer for me is no. As I have become increasingly aggressive about blocking ads, trackers, social media, using web containers, and setting up pihole, the ads I do see are hilariously untargeted. It's been fascinating to get a gli

How does this work for you? The only thing I miss about Chrome is it's default exposure of the bookmarks bar on new tab page. Until FF 72, adding the following to userchrome worked fine to mimic this behavior, but now it is broken: h
