Absolutely. The short version: Chest freerzers are way more efficient because the cold air doesn’t “fall out” as soon as you open them.

“The most sustainable phone is the one you already have”. But if you need a new one anyway, go for it. I’m really happy with my FP4.

I agree with so much that has been said here. VLC, Linux as a whole (or GNU/Linux, of course) and many more. Obsidian is sadly not open source but its free and it’s absolutely amazing!

What I haven’t found yet is a FOSS (or even just “free as in beer”) replacement for MS Project. I want to plan out a top level view of what we have to do as a team to reach some goal, assign multiple team members to one “task”, allocate a set amount of their time and see at what times we might be over or under capacity. The FOSS planing tools I’ve seen mostly work in “shifts” or let you assign one task to one person. But we’re in R&D and if I plan for 40 hours of “conceptual work” over the span of a month and assign Sarah and Steve to this with 20 hours each I don’t want to babysit their shifts. They will do the work when it suits them.

The only one I’ve seen that could do what I need is ProjectLibre but the FOSS desktop version has been abandoned a while ago and is still very buggy.

Sorry for placing this here but maybe someone knows something…

Was looking for this comment. Was not disappointed.

“Ceparoo” is indeed a great state!
Also I like that it settled the dumb “Gulf of Mexico” thing. I think we can all be happy with “Martnla”.

Absolutely!

I love that he didn’t even give a hint. The other person might have gone about teir day being happy to have helped.

Wow that was quite an encyclopedic post. Thank you for the good read!

Never ever believe companies when they make promises like “we will have x by date y”. Especially if date y is further away than maybe the end of the year. Shell also made big promises and then quietly dropped them. Of course the making of the promise came with a big PR budget. The dropping of the plans was silent. Weird how that works…

That sneaky fuck!

Oooh that’s what you’re saying. Sorry, I misunderstood.

Well, I concluded it from the fact that we can’t see the edge of the phone’s shadow on the shirt, even in the doctored image, so that shadow would need to appear on the ground. But it’s such a minute detail and his work on their faces looks so real that it would definitely fool most people.

In the original image on the left you can see the edge of the phones shadow on the ground though (look under his armpit).

I noticed that too, and then I saw that a part of her phone should also be visible in the shadow on the ground, since it goes over the edge of his shirt. I felt so good for spotting that mistake, like I could even muster 1% of his skills…

Wait… I don’t get it, can you provide another example?

I also at first thought it’s not that bad, because it looks like the main part of the computer is “hovering”, because it stands on that round portion. But then I saw that the button is on the backside! Why? That way you have to reach around everything, making it impossible to fit the thing into some smaller space and still use it. If it was on the bottom but in the front you would still have your beloved button-less design but the button would still be pretty accessible.

I wanted to nitpick on the “other side of the world” part and tell you that NK actually shares a border with Russia. But you’re actually right, Russia is just that massive that its border with Ukraine might as well be on the other side of the earth.

And a metal scream and a metal growl are also two different things that both exist. That’s why I assumed they were talking about the former. ¯_ (ツ)_/

Not if done correctly. Metal singers do it all day long. It’s all about technique and heeding the warning signs when you’re not doing it right.

If you’re talking about the metal music kind of screaming look up “vocal fry” or “fry screaming” on YouTube. It’s a technique, and it’s surprisingly not that loud. Like you wouldn’t use a fry scream to shout at your friend a block away but on a recording or through the mic on stage you can’t tell so it looks and sounds like the singer is screaming their lungs out.

Also if you try it yourself make sure to stop before it hurts! If done correctly you can fry scream all day. If done incorrectly and ignoring the warnings signs you could end up needing surgery on your larynx. Have fun!

Don’t worry, we need more of those too. <3
