My kitchen doesn’t have a vent to the outside, so I’d have to open windows to deal with any smoke or fumes from cooking. Since I got the air purifier it kicks in when I cook and cleans the air in minutes. I’ve also noticed improvements with my allergies since getting one.

It’s just so heartwarmingly cute.

My understanding is that a lot of the reasons for defederation stemmed from a fundamental lack of sufficient moderator tools. Tools that have not appeared and the lack of which has prompted Beehaw to consider moving to a different ActivityPub supporting platform in the fediverse.

And caffeine in the coffee would be listed in milligrams, but the alcohol in beer and spirits would be measured in percent and proof.

“You may not instantly see why I bring the subject up, but that is because my mind works so phenomenally fast, and I am at a rough estimate thirty billion times more intelligent than you. Let me give you an example. Think of a number, any number.”

“Er, five,” said the mattress.

“Wrong,” said Marvin. “You see?”

Weird. That bans most marches too. 120 bpm isn’t all that fast.

Thanks for that, I just had a nice wave of nostalgia.

I always assumed that the Boom in Boomer Shooter was more “Gun go Boom”, which seemed to fit the genre quite well.

Ooo! You’d think a double double is 4x so at 2x the price is a steal!

Sure looks like an R, but I wonder if that wasn’t always the idea. The shot of Deadpool in a car from the trailer is different from the screenshot on Marvel.com. Looks like they added in additional digital blood in post. Comparison here.

They are already doing that. Patherfinder 2e itself is going through a ‘remaster’ under a completely new license, it has all the OGL remnants stripped out.

The Newton was before its time. So many features we use our phones for today were pioneered in the PDA era.

Interestingly, Apple has donated the phone version of MagSafe to the Qi open wireless charging standard. Soon we’ll see a magnetically aligning wireless charging Qi2 devices from other manufacturers.

For me, the Apple Watch is about reducing notifications to mere glances at my wrist. That instead of interrupting what I’m doing to pull my phone out of my pocket I can at a glance categorize what, if anything, I need to do in response to that notification. That and always accurate time to me was worth getting a watch. I upgraded from a series 3 to a series 6 when the sensor tech advanced enough to convince me to update. The 9 has some new stuff, but not enough to convince me to upgrade.

That looks like a type of Thin film interference, like you’d see on an oil slick or a soap bubble. Wikipedia says:

Thin-film interference is a natural phenomenon in which light waves reflected by the upper and lower boundaries of a thin film interfere with one another, either enhancing or reducing the reflected light.

I’d guess the display uses a thin film on one of its layers causing this rainbow interference pattern that shifts depending on viewing angle.

You can’t build chests in space, so there’s very limited buffering or surplus options.

I think the biggest change with space is that it appears that the asteroids are an infinite resource.

Maybe add the old LucasArts adventure game Grim Fandango to the list, it’s more comical than ‘scary’. It has a relatively recent remaster with modern controls. Some would say the original tank controls are a horror into themselves. Though looking at the ESRB rating it is T for teen.

The good old Unix philosophy.

He’s been back before too, drawing a few panels of Pearls Before Swine in 2014. The artist likened it to seeing bigfoot.
