Cities which had someone blow a horn to wake everyone up would also have watchmen walking the city at night. Presumably, they would wake the next person up when their shift ended so that someone is awake at all times.

Sadly, that doesn’t always help. I’ve lived in a city with several public toilets. Some people would still rather piss on a wall ~30 metres away from the public toilet rather than use it.

They probably reduced the amount of people doing that, though.

I’ve had issues since kernel 6.4. Since early December, one pair of Bluetooth headphones works again (mostly, with occasional connection issues), but the AirPods still fail to pair at all.

Perhaps this ASRM-ish reading of java class exceptions might calm you down? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCCTCVBFt6E

Here’s a dramatic reading of some of miku’s posts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDqik-Y27Uc
The same text as from the OP is the first one in the video.

  1. Refurbished ones are just as good as fresh ones, and basically always "on sale" since their price is reduced.

  2. Valve seems to be moving towards a very likely Steam Deck Refresh. Very little is known about when or how this will happen. Based on previous comments and data-mining, the refresh will have the exact same amount of gaming-power. It may, however, have a better WiFi-chip, better screen, and stuff like that. Nothing is certain and if you want a Deck soon-ish, I wouldn’t recommend waiting for this.

It’s a microphone box which can send an alert if the sound of chainsaws is heard.

Seems like a good idea, but I’m pretty sure "AI" is only used to describe it because that is the latest buzzword…

  1. Freeze leftovers. If food is too much, put 1-2 meals in a freezer-ready container, put it away. Eat it a few weeks/months later when you’re too lazy to cook.

  2. Measure ingredient amounts. Usually, I don’t bother, but if I don’t want leftovers, it’s necessary.

Screen and battery are the top pain points both Griffais and fellow designer Lawrence Yang want to address in a Steam Deck sequel, too, they told me in late 2022.

At least it’s not quite on the level of orphancrushingmachine stories the wholesomememes community was known for on Reddit.

Last I checked, his audience was those self-proclaimed "intellectuals". The kind of atheists who define their identity by dunking on religious people, and the kind of mediocre people who feel superior by laughing others.

People who look at cherry-picked and out-of-context examples of progressivism and then dismiss the entirety as anti-science wokeness. People who cherry-pick scientific beliefs (without deeper research) in the same way most religious people cherry-pick passages from their holy text. Take the (out-of-context) quotes that reaffirm what you already belief in, ignore the rest, and most importantly: Declare that your "truth" is superior to others.

Beim Waschen wird die Kleidung enger. Besonders beim zu heißen Waschen wird Kleidung enger.

Hubi beklagt sich darüber, dass die Kleidung immer enger wird. Hubi wünscht sich, dass Kleidung bei kalten Waschen weiter würde.

Der Wunsch ist: 1) Heißes Wasser macht Kleidung enger. 2) Kaltes Wasser macht Kleidung weiter.
