Good idea. 1.2x speed is how I save time on videos I expect to be long

Zotify?

Which features do you feel like you're missing out on?

US based here. Saaaame, I didn't like Planet. I get Plant Folk oatmilk from Sam's club, and I now detest anything more thick or savory than that. If anything, Plant Folk's a little watery compared to most oat milks I tried locally.

I just bought the book off Nostarchpress last month

I have a head canon now about your username origin that you, at least once in your life, had to face a horribly distempered ceiling fan, but just don't remember it because of the capitation.

"Simple Tab Groups" extension for Firefox desktop allowed me to evolve from constantly rearranging/bookmarking ~20 shrinking tabs in a window and dropping projects; to hoarding 30-40 tabs worth of research material and unfinished project ideas in rotating groups

Seconding Linux Mint!

I came to linux because I was building a new pc at the time win11 came out, and I saw how much more like apple it looked.

I wasn't afraid to try linux because I'd already done some easy mods to my steam deck (decky and retropi). Using the steam deck's computer desktop was almost like using older windows to me; I appreciated that.

Downloading programs was like android to me; using the system's app store, or sideload an app or a second app store, or follow the dev's readme.txt. Easy, fun, free, ad-free.

I downloaded different linux distributions to a bunch of spare thumb drives and tried them one at a time. I figured, the moment I had a problem that lasted more than an hour with one distro, I'd move on to the next. If I couldn't hack it past four tries, I'm going back to windows 10.

Linux Mint was the second attempt, and it's pretty intuitive to use, imo. It feels like the ease of using android, but with a desktop and my beloved windows-style taskbar.

I read your comment before I could open the link, and now that I'd read a little past the chat-format part into chapter two, this spawn definitely smells of AI spunk. My nagging feeling reading it was - Iiiii'm pretty sure this author's never tried to teach before.

First giveaway for me was the sudden change in artstyles for the "projected slides". Also, for the first cat pic, why tf is there a bending-protected cord dangling from a wall switch? Tf?

So many adjectives used too, I bet, to give that futuristic feel, but overused, unnecessary. What the fuck is clear carbon fiber? No really, is that even real? And why do you need to describe people's desks or seats that way, when it would've been more effective to make a picture of the classroom than to detract from the learning material with a mystery virus that took out the professor just to needlessly bring in a sub? Was there going to be some plot twist? Is there a story?

And who tf thought that starting with binary was a great idea to introduce kids to computers/programming? Who tf thinks they'd convince someone who knows nothing about computers that binary is cool or even immediately useful?

I scrolled further and saw Darth Vader fighting Luke Skywalker. End rant, or else AI will give me cancer.

Scam author is trying to scam people with AI generated book.

I bought a brother printer model J1010DW because it's brother, right? Also it was the cheapest brother printer in stock locally around the time I was sick & tired of detouring to the print shop.

The color cartridges still have tons of ink swashing in them, but the printer won't even print in b&w because it detects the other cartridges as empty. So I try the tape-over-the-ink-window method, and my printer says, HMM, I GUESS THERE'S INK NOW, BUT THESE MUST NOT BE BROTHER PRINTER CARTRIDGES, HURR DURR, and makes itself an overweight scanner.

Nah, it's not this trilogy. IIRC, His Dark Materials is about a girl and a boy and people's spirit animals, parallel universes, and smiting god (probably).

WHOLESOMENESS. I love this series' wholesomeness ;u;

Also, for awareness, the author has a fanbox (it's like patreon, I think?) at https://izumi000.fanbox.cc/

Like taxes on luxury goods?

I looked up octodad on steam - what's the difference between dadliest catch and student edition?

We'll take a second moon, cut it in half, and use it as a shield for the first moon

I see it as a stand-in for the inflection people sometimes make irl when seeking affirmation for what they're saying. Imo, it's not bad as a way to add tone or subtext ("I get this might be an unpopular opinion; what do you think?"), but it is not grammatically correct in a professional email

If I could carry around a Limmings History Buff Fellowship member card with qr code links to sites like these, it'd be just handy dandy for the torturing-friends-and-family part.

Even moreso important to ctrl+s in case you trust autosave too much then it corrupts a file that closes too soon
looking at you ms publisher that one day the other week

I use Netguard to block internet access for half of my apps - the ones that shouldn't be using my mobile data anyway
