MagSafe wireless chargers definitely let you pick them up and use the phone like you would when it’s plugged it. Wireless charging certainly has its drawbacks, but constrained usage seems like an odd angle.

For instance, a few months before my most recent trip I bought a nifty MagSafe battery pack from Anker that also came with a travel stand I could set up in my hotel room. I could let my phone sit on the stand or I could slide the battery pack out and use it like I normally would. It reminds me of the days where I could just swap my cell phones batteries.

I’ve had this exact thing happen with the Z key on my most recent purchase from them, so definitely not use related.

I can see the people’s republic of Boulder from my house

I picked up Overload recently, and it’s from the creators of Descent. I really enjoy it - even if I’m flying into the walls most of the time.

They’re an invasive specifies here in Colorado too. Kill it, get rid of it, there’s tons of remedies out there. They’re nice looking when there’s one and a huge nuisance once there’s a bunch.

These plaintiffs would be better off sueing the companies of these websites for ignoring privacy laws and continuing to add tracking scripts to their sites.

That’s precisely what these people are doing. They’re not suing Google because Chrome doesn’t prevent these sites from building profiles and tracking users even while in Incognito Mode, but because Google themselves are engaging in such privacy invasive tactics.

Just to add to this, there are also a lot of them that programmable, so as long as they’re pinned out to the correct HDMI standard, you can add arbitrary custom resolutions using something like CRU or an edid writer.

This exact combo of genres hit me like a truck within the past two months or so. I used to not care much for Jazz at all and now it’s been nothing but jazz and 80s inspired synth/vapor wave. I think it probably is for similar reasons. Hearing certain combinations of synth or certain jazzy combos really transports me back in time to specific eras of my child and young adulthood.

It definitely works with Lemmy, but that could certainly explain an issue I’ve been having with kbin!

It has to do with halation. White text on a black background is blurrier than black text on a white background. There’s a nice accessibility description here.

Definitely Civilization in general. There’s a lot of other games I like that are completely different, but year after year I come back to the Civilization series. And even though they peaked at Civ5, it’s still one of the few games I’ll preorder as soon as the next one is available.

Dedicated usually means it’s not splitting cpu time with another instance. It could mean a local machine but it does not have to be one.
