That’s the first time I’m hearing this experience, thanks for the input! Changed my mind

While that’s true, there are objectively different levels of ‘just working’ though.

I’ve never spent so little time googling how to fix things as I do with Ubuntu or Mint. It’s much more frequently needed and time consuming on other Linux OSs, iOS, Windows, Android. Haven’t personally used Mac.

Also, I’ve always found a fix on Ubuntu. The same can’t be said for other OSs.

That’s just personal examples, but the general idea still stands: different systems have a different amount of bugs, (or worse, ‘features’) and the difficulty of fixing them isn’t the same for everything either.

How dare you. I’m a physicist, not an engineer.

It’s legal if they irreversibly anonymise it.

I used to play this game with Google translate when it was newish

Nah my death wish is too passive

So it wouldn’t even be unconstitutional if someone kept running for vice president and have the presidents resign immediately after being sworn in?

Well that just made my day a little worse

This won’t work if you use actual, classic TV. But I researched for a fair while and found none of the dumb TVs are cheaper than low end smart TVs. Not by a long shot. So I got a giant computer screen instead. I just connect my switch or my laptop.

My fairphone even SHOWED me the mic was running, in the top banner. Sure enough, google had accessed my mic that minute, clearly stated in the settings. I’ve turned it off since, but I don’t trust that. I’ll have to get around to switching to calyx.

Wouldn’t be the first bilingual EU country.

Unrelated, but if she’s ever interested in sharing, I’d be interested in hearing what it was like to be a female dev in the 80s! It’s tough enough today.

I never would’ve gotten that!

Ha, neat!

Can you please explain? I’ve never used Mac and it’s been a long time since I’ve properly used windows.

A tan on a skin type that doesn’t tan well. Maybe from a tanning bed where you wear eye protection, would explain why that area is so weirdly white.

I’ve never heard of a country where places give you extra drink for free just because you asked for less ice, to be honest. I know some bartenders who joke about the people who think asking for less ice will get them more.

Hey we’re pretty similar in regards to running! I started in May. I’m training for a 10k in May of this year.

I even made the same frustrating experience this week! I ran 8k in 50mins on Monday. Wanted to up my pace yesterday and was so out of breath after 2k that I tasted metal. Felt like I basically had to crawl home after that.

I googled and apparently if you do want to up your pace, you should try to run faster for only the last 10 mins or so of your run. But don’t overdo it because apparently it’s literally physiologically different within your muscles whether you run fast or far. And the changes training does are different, too: Usain Bolt at his peak wouldn’t have done very well at a marathon.

But I, for one, am fine training endurance for now. Maybe I’ll try to up my pace at a later point in time!

You don’t need to know what they consider active, just give them a toggle so they can decide.
