Let's not forget that Nixon also got the controlled substance act passed in 1971 and kick started the war on drugs.
Trying to do some custom work in my hyundai ioniq 5. I came across these trim nuts and cannot figure out how to remove them without destroying them. They are definitely gripping somehow but spin freely. Anyone come across these before?
Set up a Minecraft server back when you could run the Java files off of a USB. ran for a while, nothing fancy.
I also renamed every calculator icon to "cockulator". Boy oh boy did I think that was funny back then. (it's still a little funny)
It's not super niche, but I've never met anyone outside of the hobby that even knows it exists.
Anyway, I enjoy car audio competitions a lot. One version is SPL (sound pressure level) where the goal is to build a system that can get as loud as possible. Then there's SQ (sound quality) that's more about making the best sounding system you can, which is also fairly artsy (make it look pretty).
There's a lot of people who are assholes about it, they're the kid down the street blaring his music at 10 o clock at night. Every who does it for a hobby are very respectful of other people and recognize that the vast majority of people don't wanna hear your music.
I enjoy it for a few reasons. Firstly, I just love music. Music is a while body experience. It's not just your ears, but your skin reacts to the vibrations as well, and you just aren't gonna get that experience with cheap speakers. The car is a great place to feel music because it's enclosed and you can generally go somewhere to not bother people.
The other part, is that its very hands on and problem solving. You're doing woodworking, electrical design, maybe fiberglass. Lots of different engineering.
Your best bet would be to use handbrake and transcode them down yourself. I have a relatively. I've setup for my living room and thus want to get the best quality I can. Exact opposite reasons to you but, It's easy to downgrade, basically impossible to upgrade.
But that's my two cents. Ideally, every file is uploaded with both of us in mind.
I agree except for third party apps. I used the iphone 12 for about a year before I switched back to android. Now I have an iPhone for my work phone and an android for my personal. Yes, some third party apps are better supported. But in my experience, it's only the big name ones. When you start getting into "indie" apps, I think android wins. The number of time I have tried to do something with my iPhone only to discover I can't is way too high.
And it's usually small things that add up over time. For instance, I use Alarmy for my alarm. With android, you can have the app lock down the phone. You must turn off the alarm the designed way (photos, barcodes, math, etc. It's a really cool app and I highly recommend it). If you try to close it out, it'll start itself again and start alarming. But with iPhone, I can close the app and the alarm goes away and won't ring again. It made it pretty useless when I could still just dismiss the app anyway.
Wanna torrent with your phone? Nope. Want a different keyboard? Sure, unless your typing in a password, then you must use IOS keyboard.
Those are some notable examples I remember off the top of my head.
Check out the Sony phones. Still have headphone jacks
I absolutely love my induction stove. I've been Wanting one forever, can't justify the price to run upgrade my electrical panel and run a 240v line (I have gas now). Finally decided to get a cheap countertop model (duxtop). It's night and day. Holy shit. It boils water faster than I could imagine. It's Hotspot is a little small for a cast iron pan, but works perfectly with steel pans. Gets hot very quick, cools off quick. Way easier to clean. I absolutely love it.
Eventually I'll get a full sized one, but for now, 2 burners is enough.

I'd add Mark Rober, legal eagle, cinema therapy, half as interesting (also a Wendover productions), and Kyle hill
It's also probably inflated due to people making multiple accounts. I'm sure there's lots of us (myself included) who made an account on one instance and then decided to swap to a different one.
The app looks great! Feels very fluid.
I have only three requests:
I've got two:

And the other is from an old salty chief when I was in the navy. This is paraphrasing but:
"Every fuck up comes down to a combination of three root causes: didn't know, didn't care, or a material problem"
Someone gets hurt on the job? Well, did they not know they were doing something wrong? Did they not care enough about safety? Or was it simply because something broke? Maybe they didn't know AND they didn't care to find out.
