My pixel 7 Pro’s vector motion sensor is broken. How the hell does that even happen? I’ve never even heard of it and there’s like nothing online about it.

I can’t do anything that requires tracking how the phone is moved- no compass calibration, no Map’s guidance arrow, etc.

Hey I’m looking at doing the same- what’d you go to grad school for?

I feel pretty similar, have you found a different site you think you’ll like better?

It’s not as slick looking but take a look at Ubooquity. I have it on my Linux server and haven’t had any issues. Granted I mostly use it for sharing ebook files, not reading them on the server itself so it might not be what you’re looking for

These are all on my list of cool things I tell people about Japan. It really is a bunch of small stuff that I found great.

Another small one - most grocery stores have a packing area past payment and there’s usually a little bottle with a light temporary glue next to the plastic bags. So the line moves faster and you never fumble opening the thin plastic bags

I was just in Japan for about 4 months, mostly Tokyo. Id say somewhere around a quarter of public men’s rooms I used didn’t have soap dispensers. Taiwan was worse though - most baffling was the lack of soap on my plane to and from Taipei

You should submit some of your photos to Wikipedia. They’re very clear compared to some of the handful in the article

What you’re saying is technically true but do you know what was a horrible experience?

A few weeks ago when I, in Japan, needed to download many 5+ Gb project files I had backed up on my home server in the US after a hard drive failure and I was hamstrung by my shitty domestic up speed limit.

At least with large web file hosts like Google, iCloud, and mega you’re not restricted by your inferior domestic upload speeds. Being able to access the server from anywhere is only half the battle

Reagan wanted states to raise the drinking age so he threatened to withhold federal highway funding from states that didn’t

Typo graphy 😎

The cinnamon one is Huel, which also has a better nutritional profile than Soylent

The common standard for audiobooks isn’t FLAC or WAV, it’s chapter track MP3 or chapterized M4B. The vast majority of audiobooks are encoded at 64 or 128 kbps. I wish the minimum was 128kbps but that’s where the audiobooks community has been for like a decade now.

Yeah I do archviz and bim work and I’ve tried my hardest for years now to switch primarily to blender but even with all the plugins in the world I still can’t use it as a primary replacement. And don’t even get me started on some people’s insistence that FOSSCADs are anywhere near feature parity for any in depth workflow with autodesk’s suite.

I don’t use Windows/Mac over Linux because I love them, I use them because a computer is a toolkit and I need specific tools.

I switched over to MacOs about 3 months ago now for dev work and I’ve really been enjoying it so far. Except when there are weird hiccups, but they’ve been getting better as I get more familiar with it

Same blades, same-ish shaving frequency, but I change my blades after every second shave. Past that I can feel the blades starting to pull, especially on my neck. Still cheap as shit compared to cartridges for a much better experience.

I have used Foxit/Phantom both personally and professionally for years now with no complaints
