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?

For anyone that was using the beta previously-

Loading remote images and the 3 dot menu for Reply and Forward is now working so the beta now seems full function. That was my number one complaint when I was moved over to the beta branch (guess I forgot that I signed up for it).

I read a lot of fantasy with muskets and such. It’s even called Flintlock Fantasy. Doesn’t extend as commonly outside of books though

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

Looks fine to me

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

Proprietary software I use on a regular basis with no Linux alternative:

Revit, AutoCAD, Houdini, 3dsMAX, SolidWorks, Rhino, Grasshopper, Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop/InDesign (and/or their Affinity alternatives), CUDA optimized simulation and rendering plugins, etc.

I use at least one of these every day, almost none of them have any functioning compatibility with Wine or other emulation. Even just using Affinity has caused some issues with team projects when someone picks up where I left off and there’s no layer information and a ton of clipping groups instead.

If all you do with your computer is program, work with documents, use a web browser, and play video games sure go wild don’t use Windows on any of your machines. But I just don’t understand how some people in the FOSS community cannot fathom that there are entire professional workflows and industries that just have zero possibility of moving to Linux.

Do I like using Windows? No. But I do like being able to use all the programs my work and research requires.

I contribute actual, tangible research into FOSS CAD/CAM/BIM software development and implementation. I love it and want to see FOSS options grow and become widely adopted. But it just isn’t anywhere close to having feature parity. And that matters, just as much as industry interoperability matters.

I’m just so tired of this thought process in the community that the only reason someone isn’t using Linux/FOSS is because they’re some fanboy or something

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.

“I don’t like,” Tariq, 8, said of the series. “It creeps me out. Every time I go to the toilet, I just want to get it quick done.” Tariq, who lives in New York State and is known online as Corn Kid, said he was not familiar with the other terms.
