I love this in principle but I can’t use it myself. I‘m a very fast reader by default, basically already doing what the highlighting tries to make you do, without it needing to be there. The highlighting disrupts that for me. I end up stopping at every word and partially jumping back and forth. I do show this to people on occasion that aren’t as lucky as me with their reading speed and most said it helped them. Not all though.

I don’t think the perspective matters that much because that black rim at the back is at roughly the same depth as the picture so you only have to compare it to that. Only your red lines matter and they prove, that there’s a bit of space to the right while there isn’t to the left.

Horizontally. The picture is not perfectly centred above the stove. Needs to be moved a little bit to the right.

Old PlayStation and Nintendo consoles specifically taught me to not care about physical games though, because it is incredibly easy to softmod them and still play anything you like, even after you can’t buy the games anymore…

Forget them hanging a picture above their stove. What’s worse is that they didn’t even centre it.

Thanks! So about what I thought I knew. Shocker, that newer formats have better compression yet worse support. Who‘d have thunk?

Any thoughts on AAC compared to mp3 and Opus?

The cops will still take you with them to the station when you don’t have an ID to show if they ask for it. You are by law required to identify yourself with a physical ID.

So yes, while it’s not illegal to not carry your ID on you, it’s still to your own detriment if you cannot produce it.

In Germany it‘s similar. You are required to have an ID with you. It’s not strictly illegal though to not have it on you but if you happen to have business with police (be it an accident, random traffic stop or you having part in illegal activities), when you don’t have it on you, they can make you come to the police station with them to confirm your identity, even if they wouldn’t otherwise.

It’s primarily a difference in gender. „Der See“ (masculine) is a lake, while „die See“ (feminine) is the ocean.
But yes, it’s much more common to talk about „Meer“ and „Ozean“. Talking about „die See“ is a bit archaic and pirate-speak-ish.

Well but the artists won’t get any money from you either then. Not that they would get much from Spotify anyways. They’re among the worst in artist payouts.

Definitely more accurate than the donuts. That would have been it before arc but dang, it’s then only thing worth a damn they do at the moment.

And a lot of those safe guards (like the System Integrity Protection) can be turned off, if that’s what you like. The terminal together with the homebrew package manager make macOS a really good place to be, if you can’t get rid of some software that won’t run on Linux (like the Adobe suite).

8bitDo‘s controllers are totally awesome, especially for the price. If I ever need a new controller (aka whence my XBox One Controllers break), 8bitDo is definitely the way to go.

It could. It might not. But it’s intel so the probability they’ve actually locked it down is higher than with AMD. But hardware is often more capable than what the specs say. That’s why overclocking is a thing or, in the past, you could unlock an extra core on some processors. It’s just never a guarantee and can vary from part to part, even if it’s the same model.

Well, depends on the price point but below 500-600€, yea, Apple has nothing to offer. At or above that price point, there obviously are counterparts to Apple devices and vice versa.

The fairphone 6 is the first fairphone that I feel I can just recommend to anyone who is looking for a(n android) phone in that price range. It has no significant drawback that I can see, unlike previous models which were often severely underpowered.

The glass is clearly half full, if you started with an empty glass and half empty, if you started with a full one.

Yea, I wouldn’t personally get a Samsung, even if I was in the market for a cheap Android…

I was just backing you up with an approximate exchange rate.
