They were right, they are an untrustworthy seller.

Reminds me of when all their customer data leaked, and obviously the people who pirated didn’t have that issue.

This is actually a bigger deal than the headline suggests if the claims are to be believed. Hopefully the licensing isn’t too expensive for it to be widely adopted if manufacturing at scale is easy.

They don’t say how it degrades in water, but if it can degrade in ~2months outdoors then that’s actually pretty good.

Most biodegradable eco-plastic is a scam because it’s either only partially degradable, or only degradable in industrial facilities. If I can throw this packaging in my own compost bin then that would be a huge way to get rid of single-use plastic.

In Canada you have to pay extra for a 5G plan even if you have a 5G phone. And grandfathered plans/plans you’ve been on for a while keep the low speeds.

I had a super cheap prepaid plan with 3g speeds until I switched last month because I was on it for so long.

Some prepaid plans here just cut you off data completely unless you prepay for your overage. Others let you go over and charge you like $5 per 200mb over (ridiculous).

There are post-paid monthly plans that don’t do overage charges, but they throttle you so much it’s not really useful.

Edit: just checked, for 50 CAD (around 40 USD) you can get 100GB of 5G a month prepaid, for a plan that gives you complete US coverage as well.

That seems like a pretty bad deal actually, you can probably find a better 4g or even 5g plan in the US for that.

Prepaid companies in Canada (who generally have worse pricing than the US because all the cell companies have agreements with each other) have 20-40gb/month for that price (depending on the limited time sales), but not unlimited w/ throttling like you have.

I have no clue, the last time I ran far was 5k a few months ago. It’s good to have goals, good luck.

I used the Nike run app and followed their training plan which alternated intervals/fartlek, distance, and light jogs, but also I injured myself because I listened to the plan more than my body so maybe don’t listen to me.

Congrats on being able to run a 10k, no matter the speed/time.

My legs would fall off. I tried and failed to get that much into running multiple times

Android games are different because old ones use currently unsupported libraries, and you’re not supposed to run old versions of android. That’s more a problem with how Google thinks android has to work.

PC games and PlayStation store games don’t really make sense to de-list like this because win10 is very backwards-compatible with software, and PS4/PS5 games that are released and work don’t need any upkeep.

I’ve learned about group theory and isomorphisms, I’ve looked into how the incompleteness theorems work in depth in formal education.

All that made me do was run away from math for a while because everything is overwhelming, it feels like learning civil engineering by looking at a giant 18th century cathedral, having to learn every part of how to build it, and then building it yourself, and then moving on to more and more buildings until you can derive how to build a skyscraper by yourself.

Maybe I’m ready to get back into heavy math and should read the book, idk. Maybe I missed the forest for the trees that I’ve studied, so I missed out on some beauty by trying to analyze how every single tree works.

You can find subtitles online separately, because the subtitles aren’t really cracked down on by copyright enforcement (since it’s only text files that you need to have already found the movie to use).

I like your idea of something like an audio track, but only for dialogue/audio that was changed in the translation. This doesn’t really exist, but it’d be cool if it did, especially for stuff like The Simpsons where jokes change to make more sense to different audiences.

For everyone else needing to block stuff:

Torrents:

• 1337x for torrents
• YTS for HD movies
• EZTV for shows

Streaming:

• fmovies
• popcornflix
• stremio
• movie.sqeezebox.dev

Weird that it listed crackle, I thought that was owned by Sony and had licensed stuff on it. I remember using it twice on my PSP because that was the only streaming video app for it.

Also weird to list snagfilms which was also licensed stuff

What’s the difference between this and kicad?

Doing something with Kicad has been on my to-do list for a while

My Brother laser printer/fax that looks like it came from the 90s is amazing and works with everything on default drivers. Mac, PC, Linux, Android, all of these work fine for me. The brother driver gives you more options if you care to install it, but you don’t have to.

Inkjet is a different beast. Especially the ones that don’t let you print B&W if you run out of colour ink, or that check for “legit” ink refills.

What does the lower exchange between the ruble and the dollar mean then? The ruble is worth less dollars than before.

UBS (a Swiss bank) doesn’t really have reason to lie about the wealth increase. Is the exchange rate thing just because rubles are less useful internationally because sanctions?

The US has inflation, and if the ruble is worth less dollars then that means Russia has even more inflation.

Obviously all our media wants to paint a picture of Russia doing terribly, but I wonder what the actual picture is. All the companies that left Russia left behind all their shit for Russia to use which if anything helps them keep more production in their own borders.

In an economy as tightly controlled as China, how much does deflation even matter?

Also I wonder how everywhere else having inflation will interact with this. Is China just getting affected because the rest of the world can’t afford basic necessities anymore? The article kinda touches on reduced demand from countries with inflation abroad causing this, but also doesn’t really explain anything other than going “lower number is uh bad”
