What are you even talking about not having a choice? I agree Google is awful, but even on pixel phones you can change most aspects of it - definitely including your browser/search app and engine. Just switch to Firefox and/or use duckduckgo, or any of the other browsers and search engines that are readily available. I haven’t used chrome in years, but if you’re a chromebro I’m pretty sure it supports changing the search engine too.
If your launcher doesn’t support changing your search engine/app in a built-in search bar, throw a different browser widget up on your home screen or get a new launcher with a better app/web search widget, unless you got your phone from work or something with restrictions in place you can easily swap out your launcher for a 3rd party one. I personally use Niagara launcher and like it a lot, if you want a more traditional launcher there’s KISS (It’s also foss), and launchair

Throw it in a crontab job if you’re on Linux even, 1 line in cron to run everything there to update on whatever schedule you want

Only if you’re commenting as much as a bot, probably wouldn’t be any more power usage than opening up a poorly optimized website tbh

Great flour, consistent every time, no filler or weird blends like others might have, great recipes, employee owned, etc.

They also have gluten-free flours (both measure for measure and straight up) and good recipes for them. I’m not gluten free but I have a friend that is and the chocolate cake I made them with their flour and recipe was one of the best gluten free cakes there ever had (it’s better than some gluten cakes I’ve had tbh)

There was a post earlier asking for slurs for beginners in a hobby that buy the top of the line stuff for the hobby. Don’t cheap out on starter gear, but don’t go for top of the line right out of the gate either

The reason why they no longer do live studio is a TV star got followed home by someone in the audience and they tried/planned to hurt her. After that they used laugh tracks, and other shows followed suite when they realized that audiences didn’t really care. Made it easier to film

Biggest piece of advice, you don’t need to document everything you do in your life. If it’s info you might use in the future, a significant interaction or event, fun tidbit etc, add it in. If it’s just a casual conversation with someone that you don’t learn anything significant or it’s something that you’ll never link to or use again, just keep it as a memory.

I did a lot of over-capturing early on and got a lot of fatigue from it. Now my note making is as I run across things I’ll want to reference in the future (plans that were made, ideas to learn more about later, important phone calls/interactions, notes on articles, updates on projects, etc), with refinement to those ideas coming when I access them again later (or if I’m bored and have time). It’s no longer a drain to grow my PKM, it’s slower but much more meaningful info

I think it was partially to make the statement more sensational, because 60 sq km is ~23 sq miles, so it barely makes the top 30 biggest games by map size (as of some 2023 articles)

Honestly, whatever works for you.

My preferred system is two big directories, one for your daily notes (dailies, journal, etc), and another for literally everything else.

This is how logseq is implemented, and can easily setup emacs org-roam to do it too. It’s very nice because you don’t need to worry about where to put something, throw it in your daily journals and get all the info down there, and link densely. If it’s about a specific topic, link to it and when you go to that topic you’ll see the info in the back links below (logseq does it automatically, emacs take a bit of config). You can then transcribe the important/summary/etc info from all of your aggregated back links into a single well thought out and planned document, or at least a single trimmed down one. Or, just leave all the info in the back links, whatever works best for you

It has org mode, but the links in logseq aren’t compatible with org-roam links, so either you use custom elisp to make logseq links into emacs compatible links and can’t follow links in logseq, or make emacs notes logseq compatible and can’t follow links in emacs.

Also, iirc logseq is planning to drop org mode support when they launch their database update, either that or have it available but not updated anymore.

Ideal date - the beginning of time. I’m partial to Jan 1st 1970. All my homies love integer dates since the epoch.

Donations and fundraisers are tax deductible, it doesn’t actually cost the rich anything to donate to them

From the book algorithms to live by

I check my work and personal emails once per day. Work ones are usually all just hr spam, sometimes something I need to know about in advance but it’s rare. Personal I would check less often but if I get any emails about attempts to access accounts, job interviews, etc it’s nice to be semi up to date. I also only open physical mail once per month, unless it’s something that is urgent (almost never) l

I also get through my sprint jira tickets in order from fastest to slowest (assuming all have similar priority) to take advantage of something called 2 machine scheduling. It decreases the overall wait time for the tickets. If I do a 2 day task then a 1 day task, the wait on the 2 day task is 2 days and the 1 day task is 3 days, so 5 days of wait total, in the other order 2 day task has 1 day of wait, 2 day task has 3 days for 4 days total. It honestly doesn’t change a whole lot, but it allows whoever needs to QA my tasks to get started faster and have stuff to do while I’m working too rather than extra downtime (normally not an issue because the department I’m doing a lot of work for currently is over 2 weeks behind though)

The theater teacher was caught having sex with a student in the theater, got proof from his phone that he had done it plenty of other times with other kids too.

Also some football players abused Adderall to give them an edge while playing, one died and another got brain damage and will never walk again.

A nearby highschool’s waterpolo coach was caught having sex with students too.

I’ve tried Spotify, yt music, and tidal. Tidal and Spotify are pretty much identical for the most part but has higher quality files and pays artists more. Yt music is really good at recommendations from my experience with it.

So anyway, now I pirate all my music in lossless flac (whenever possible) and listen to it via plexamp. If I want to try a new artist I just download their most popular album, if I like it I get more of their stuff. The library must grow.

Come to the vim side, we have y for copy (yank) and p for paste. We even have d for cut

In cyberpunk 2077 they have posters, messages, and emails about a game called “no life 3” - including that it is finally almost going to be released in 2077 after a very long wait since no life 2

I personally use lidarr to download and picard to tag, but use plex/plexamp to listen locally and on my phone
