Hi all, just had this happen once (and it took a nice photo so I'm glad), but my settings are flash off...

Took a wide angle selfie, and it lit up a white/amber circle on the screen, and that actually provided just enough light without washing out the foreground.

Can't seem to replicate it. Can't find any other references online except this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/oneui/comments/127ae79/part_of_samsungs_implementation_of_night_mode_on/

Any ideas when it triggers? Would actually like to use it instead of the default front facing flash.

You forget that in the States, they say "speed limit is X, so I go X+10", sometimes even 20. It's very common for comments to mention that the flow of traffic is literally 25% faster than the "limit" - it's like culturally so many USians treat the limit as a lower limit. 🫣

I have them. They aren't half bad, but it is possible at louder volumes for others to hear.

Perhaps OP should get bone conduction buds, but that may make it hard to wear the glasses.

Too bad if you're already booked and the airline company changes the plane on you...

It's called speed tape, and genuinely is a thing used in the industry.

New comment counter (lemmy.world)

Highlight new comments seems to work, but am I blind or is it not possible to have a new comment counter when browsing threads?

There's other apps that can show the counter, this one that seems to be the only one I have at the moment that actually highlights new comments, but not one that does both. :/

Unfortunately there has to be almost no side effects for almost all users, as there are no (as yet) medical benefits to male contraception.

In women, not being pregnant can prevent death for some of them, regulate painful periods, etc. - it is considered the risk of the myriad side effects is worth it because at least it does some good.

For men, who do not become pregnant, not being able to get someone else pregnant is not a medical benefit for the man.

And unfortunately hormonal modification does cause problems. Lots of them.

Don't worry, it won't ever get that far... Insurance AI would have denied the imaging request.

Nobara Project is another good Fedora based build for those wanting to try Linux that will work relatively smoothly for gaming.

Fran is quite well known for her role in The Nanny, and a pertinent scene is one where she fights not to cross a picket (strike) line, and her employer forces her across.

So a lot of us who remember this scene are all having a little extra giggle about the whole deal.

Acknowledging the truth means accepting that we're fucked, that even if we weren't individually responsible (maybe) we are still going to have to deal with the ramifications... And that's scary. It's far more comforting for there to be a secret cabal controlling everything and that really life is gonna be ok and you don't have to change anything at all.

Stolen credit cards, buy legit keys, owner of card does chargeback, actual retailer is now out money and a key and can get penalised for the chargeback.

Might as well pirate it instead because the devs definitely don't get the money.

At least here in Australia parents were using the kids at the playground to socialise (standing right up in each other's space, holding empty coffee cups to justify no mask), and so there were multiple vectors of infection. That and multigenerational households are more common in some parts of the world, so if the kid brings it home, whole family gets sick, hospital system overloads.

It wasn't specifically kids suffer so oldies don't die, but the continuation is that if the oldies are healthy, if anyone needs the hospital, there'll be staff to look after them.

TL;DR people are taking the piss and making the jobs of HCWs harder... Not like that's anything new 🙄
