To be fair, the .ml version is the largest so you'll inevitably see a mix of both thoughtful comments, and horribly stupid comments.

I would recommend completely ignoring what Instance people/communities are hosted on

Can you remind me how/where to donate?

Have you checked your local non-chain theatres?

By 60km, if you hit a pedestrian it's likely going to be fatal.

Highways being 80-100km is fine, they're not an area for people, homes, schools, etc.

It's within the city where high speeds are the problem

Travelling in Europe I noticed people drive much much slower and safer than in Canada.

That's not because Europeans inherently find dangerous driving "less fun", nor because they're in less of a rush (altho that likely plays a part too).

It's because Canada is lacking in high speed/frequency public transit, so people who don't want/don't like to drive are often forced to.

It's also because Canada has straight, wide roads which encourage high speeds.

I'm not saying not to ticket reckless drivers. Im saying ticketing isn't a solution to the problem, it's a bandaid.

The solution to reckless driving shouldn't be police checks, but the alternatives are politically unpopular (public transit, cycling infrastructure, narrowing roads, etc)

Until those proper fixes are implemented in a city, I view speed traps as a net benefit tbh.

Why would they release a product for free that costs massive amounts to run

JPG is not bad, but it uses more storage space for the same quality compared to HEIC/HEIF

Any examples of an equivalent in other languages?

I speak a small amount of French but can't think of one

I ride my bike/take public transit in my car-centric city

I've converted several Apex players to the wildly underrated Quake Champions

 

Bought on Amazon for about 800 less than MSRP, not sure why it was that "cheap" (still expensive) but I decided to give it a shot

Pros:

  • I've always been a huge tablet lover, so having one in my pocket for when I'm on the bus or at work is amazing

  • Everyone knows it's great for selfies, but an advantage I see mentioned less often is how great it is for doing Makeup! Being able to zoom in 3x on my eyes and have it remain clear is amazing for putting on eye liner, I'd argue even better than a mirror

  • Multitasking is excellent and intuitive

  • The front screen's skinniness is better once you get used to it, altho if you're a big-phone person you simply may not like it

Cons:

  • Camera system is behind other modern flagships

  • Screen-anxiety is definitely a thing I worry about. Feels great so far but I've heard enough negative stories to be nervous

That's about it, with no worries about durability and a better camera it'd be about perfect

 

Nice to see more companies taking this kinda concept seriously (altho if concerts weren't obnoxiously loud it wouldn't be necessary :D )

I wonder if some headphone reviewers will be able to measure the FR of these vs competitors like Vibes and Etymonic

 

A minor bug but, often when I scroll vertically, I somehow end up registering a horizontal swipe on posts leading to a Downvote or Save.

Anyone else get this? I'm on a Pixel

 

Total noob, but I set up TrueNAS/Nextcloud on an old laptop and it's working great locally.

What would be the easiest secure way to access my files remotely from my phone and/or laptop?

 

Is this an option that exists or could be added in the future?

30% off would make the pricing feel less steep

Quake Pro League Championship-Final Day is live now, top 6 players left. The format is 1v1 Duel

If you aren't familiar, Quake Champions is a free-to-play shooter on Steam and, in my opinion the best fps Esport. If you log in now you'll get a free Quake Con 2023 skin :)

This isn't the best way to make coffee, it's simply how I like it.

It's largely the James Hoffman method. I do 10g/100ml to keep it simple, so in the morning I grind 12.5g for 250ml of coffee.

I let the boiling water and coffee mix for 2 min, then give it a bit of a stir, wait 30sec, and slowly push down on the press.

After, I mix with 7g of sugar and 25g of 18% cream (yes I weigh what I put in it, am I weird??) and it's delicious.

How about you guys?
