I teach high school, and it’s so hard to get students to pay attention, even with fun engaging projects. The reality is that these social apps are designed to be addictive, and it’s not a fair contest.
It’s definitely not as comfortable as something like the Steam Deck, but I played so much Switch while commuting on the train since it came out. It’s been a real joy to have. It’s also WAY smaller than any of the current-gen handhelds.
What do you mean by “cart games being downloaded in full to the system?”
It makes sense — we just don’t understand it yet 😀
There was a really interesting interview on The Verge with the CEO of Telly. Basically, TVs are so cheap now because they make all of their profit selling your data. His pitch is "why pay for a TV and then also have your data mined. They should at least give you the TV for free."
It's frustrating because even if we buy a "premium" devices like an LG C3 or one of the nice Samsung TVs, they're still going to spy on us. (PiHole FTW).
Yes, but it's just not statistically significant. Unless we see longer-term trends of her follow count, this could easily be a random fluctuation, bot crackdown, etc.
If you're looking for a free alternative, check out how to use Markdown files. Obsidian is a popular (but not open-source) program. The beautiful of .md is that it's plain text and can be easily imported into a variety of applications, including a simple text editor like Notepad. Here's a good overview video.
I love Game Pass, but I don't like monopolies. I wish regulators had blocked this. Also: https://www.theonion.com/just-six-corporations-remain-1819564741
Next week: Google is closing down its traffic light program. It's Mad Max on the roads now.
If you unzip the fabric lining of your suitcase, there should be some screws that attach the handle to the outside. This will commandeer one of those screws to hide the AirTag beneath the fabric lining (but close to the exterior shell of your luggage). Mine is a Samsonite, but I'm sure it works for others as well!
These corporate "apologies" always rub me the wrong way. A policy like this had to pass through so many hands before getting certified. You just know that a whole room full of C-Suite executives genuinely thought this was a good idea and couldn't think through its potential problems.
Hopefully this means that a PC release is coming soon
Just a quick correction: Series S is current-gen. You might be thinking of the One S, which is understandable because Microsoft has a monkey coming up with their product names.
In my attic, I have an Open-Stub J Pole and a 20m dipole. They work pretty well! You'll need to make sure that you don't have a metal roof or any foil layers in the roofing or insulation. If you're running a dipole, try to avoid electrical wires -- if you can't, have the dipole cross them at a 90º angle.
