OK then repurpose an air hockey table and just let it osmosis into a drain below 👌
A convex waterproof mattress with channels that empty into a chamber pot might work. Could test for science.
Ahaha thanks
Between 2014 & today, market appears to have determined neither are relevant. Corporations appear not to have found captivating use cases as well. Given this, is the lack of understanding to be expected?
Compare to, like, folks understanding differences between Instagram & TikTok. More people understand because it’s relevant to them, regardless of the average Lemming’s view of the platforms.

Ah, I mean imagine writing a comment dissing Biden and having someone vote for someone even worse. Pragmatism prevailed for me.
But any genocide enabler deserves max criticism one way or another, even if that’s pragmatically limited to private criticism.

xkcd #2962: President Venn Diagram
(sh.itjust.works)
alt-text
The image is a Venn diagram that compares the overlapping qualities between "Eligible to be President", "Would be a good President", and "Unusually vocal about love of Venn diagrams". The central overlapping area contains the text "Kamala Harris", while the eligibility and vocality areas contain the text “Me”.
Title text:
Hard to imagine political rhetoric more microtargeted at me than 'I love Venn diagrams. I really do, I love Venn diagrams. It's just something about those three circles.'

Rough OCR:
This little pony went to in He graduated with highest honors and even received a departmental award for academic excellence! While at he cultivated an ongoing love for...
Computer Science & Mathematics!
For two years he worked as a tutor for the Computer Science department. He loves passing on his knowledge and getting everyone excited about computer science!
One summer he worked for the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He developed an online tool for analyzing thermal neutron triple-axis spectrometry data. He even had his very own nuclear reactor to play with!
The next year he had an Extreme Blue internship with IBM. He worked with a team of interns at the Almaden Research Center to develop technology related to online shopping. But he's not allowed to talk about it too much! (He signed a non-disclosure)
After graduation he galloped off to work as a radio DJ, and freelance web developer. He produces stunning, high quality websites for all the nice ponies hanging out in the
For a few months he dabbled in domestication, working for a startup in San Francisco called. He spearheaded major projects, infrastructure upgrades and code cleaning frenzies while ensuring that thousands of hardworking ponies got quality, catered lunches of grains, oats, and grasses every day! The daily plough just wasn't for him though, so he threw off the bit and bridle and galloped back to He still does contract work for on other companies on occasion, and in the fall he'll be heading off to a computer science Ph.D. program at the University of Washington!
The adventure is far from over... What will this little pony do next, who knows??

Dirty diaper resold on Amazon ruined a family business, report says
(arstechnica.com)
Summary:
Amazon's returns process is a complete dumpster fire - they'll slap a "new" sticker on your used crap and put it right back up for sale. Case in point: a small biz got screwed when Amazon resold their poopy swim diaper as brand new, tanking their company. Thankfully, Amazon took immediate action (JK). At least sellers now at least have the option to opt-out of returns being sold as new.

Attached what I think are my relevant settings. I mainly use Safari for iCloud Private Relay.
Maybe it makes it harder for a site to track me if I’m using Private Browsing versus using the regular mode without clearing website data, eh?
Too bad Tab Groups don’t isolate cookies (and other data), seems like that would solve for some of my use cases. And too bad Private Tabs forget cookies when they’re not used for a while / you run out of RAM. That would also solve for some use cases.
I’d like to pin a dozen or so completely isolated tabs and have them always maintain my cookies. Because I can’t, I use Tab Groups for a few sites I use frequently, and launch a new Private Tab for everything else.
