I’ve been using copilot. Potential is there but getting a result is more art than science. I’ve found it helpful to document desired workflows in readmes and ask for unit tests then run unit tests until it works out.

I would go Bluetooth sleep mask myself


Hey my knighthood came with a certificate and everything! It’s easily given me $100 worth of joy, anything that’s not survival is bullshit. Lean into stupid if you can afford it and it makes you happy.


I offered 3 potential solutions that work across ever model (unlisted) and you guys are downvoting?


Atm Xbox is my most reliable media player. PlayStation isn’t quite there, but would be a nice to have. My parents aren’t very tech literate and they use their smart TV/cable box. I have a friend with an older Roku/smart stick that’s incompatible. Have they added an app for Apple TV yet?


I need client side apps and easily sharing libraries with remote friends. Both are pretty hard to give up and not quite there yet.


I’ve done 2 of the technix cars 1000-2000 pieces. They are fun but expensive. They take up a lot of space when you are done. The Ferrari had a lot of loose pieces for the price. As others have mentioned, look into led kits before you build it.
Proton had a reputation for being the good guy. In the span of a month, we saw them bend the knee, flip flop and throw shade at competition; all while pretending to be the hero. We essentially have to trust them with our data and they are showing signs that they are willing to act against that trust with worrisome agendas and biases. It’s not a good look, and since this marketing to users key issues, it’s going to cause some responses.


It all started with PAL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAL the short version is that old cameras were tuned to work with the electromagnetic frequency, your camera either worked in Europe or in the US. This effected the frame rate of the end video (4%) and meant that tvs, video players and consoles ran at a different frame rate which lead to 2 standards NTSC and SECAM.
As trade expanded publishers created trade routes and business partnerships that created a patterns of distribution. Later when we resolved those 2 standards with modern technology, we are still were using those methods to get the physical copies to the stores and those same stores are still handling digital distribution, using the same laws and regulations. It might seem simple to click download, but that’s built on a monolith of history and automation to deliver a good user experience.
To actually get rid of it, I’m not a lawyer but I imagine we have internal trade treaties to visit? I don’t think it’s legal to sell PAL versions outside of their region unless you are also doing business there. I know Japanese pokemon games were hard to buy as a kid. Disclaimer: I know tech stuff.


It’s so consistent it has a name: Moore’s law is the observation that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore’s_law
I heard that we were at the theoretical limit but apparently there’s been a break through: https://phys.org/news/2020-09-bits-atom.html

Eli5 VPN: https://dnsleaktest.com/ Visit this site unsecured and it will display your general geographic location (county/region). Connect to your VPN and try again incognito and under most circumstances it will display the VPN location instead.
Example scenario: you are in Canada and connect to Netflix and are incredibly disappointed with the Canadian selection. You connect toa VPN from New York a few miles away and you get access to the full United States catalogue. (Netflix is fighting this)
Example 2: you setup your smart vacuum on your home network and being concerned about security, you disabled access outside your home. You can connect to a personal VPN you configure to “spoof” being inside the house while on vacation to modify your vacuum settings.
Vpns are also commonly used as “public transit” for users to obfuscate their identity.
Benefit: When you make a request against a website, they often put trackers on you including your operating system, browser application, and store data like your geographic location. Advertisers are tracking your history, sites are using cookies to charge more with dynamic pricing when you revisit, data brokers are selling that data. There have been use cased where whistle blowers are identified off that purchased data from known journalist meetings. There’s a lot of reasons to have a VPN, but never use a free one. Adding an extra jump to your VPN location is definitely adding latency, if you don’t need one, it’s just extra weight.




Insurance IS the third party. From an idealist perspective, insurance is supposed to be negotiating rates with doctors (independent contractors) to try to set a baseline for services and negotiate on your behalf to make sure a doctor isn’t charging 10k to apply a bandage.
Eventually insurance companies found out they were holding both the patient approval and writing the policy and started lobbying until they became monster they are today. Now both patients and doctors hate they have embedded themselves in the process siphoning money.


Spiderman far from home actually addressed this
XIV (14): Temperance: experienced vast extremes and, as such, has grown to appreciate moderation. He also knows that the good things in life must be waited for and that patience is a key part of a harmonious life. https://www.mysticsense.com/articles/tarot/fools-journey/
The fools journey is the story of the tarot deck and experiences we have in life. It’s meant to be a guide through life’s struggles, it sounds like you could use this at this point in your life.
