Sounds interesting. What was the subject of these tickets?

What? You think this is some kind of secret?

No, I think that we should be critical of what we read online. Especially on topics where information is being actively manipulated. Thanks for the link.

I keep seeing this Israel funded Hamas rhetoric. But, I can find almost no information about it from reputable sources. The only information I can find that is not obviously biased is a freaking Quora post.

If you, or anyone else, has anything more solid then I would be very interested to read about it.

There’s some negativity about the price due to it being much higher than usual for a mobile platform. But I hope that it does well. Despite having good hardware games on iOS, iPad OS and TV OS are really lacking in quality. If this game shows there is a viable market for AAA games then that could change.

In this scenario I think the largest mammals will go first? Like if you consider there was a higher concentration of oxygen during the dinosaur era and some dinosaurs were really big. So it seems larger mammals might need a higher concentration of oxygen.

It was mostly tongue-in-cheek. But I was basing it off 500 charge cycles which is what the iPhone battery is rated for. I just checked and the Apple Watch battery is rated for 1000 cycles so that’s about three years. I’m impressed that your watch battery is still lasting a day, do you use sleep tracking? And do you think your Apple Watch would still last a day if you did 45 minutes of outdoor activity using GPS?

Making it even less economical to replace the battery doesn’t sound very green. Although I guess you can sleep soundly knowing the electricity the Apple Watch used in its short two years of life has been carbon offset. And, in fairness to apple, I’m pretty sure battery replacement involves tossing, I mean recycling, the main unit and giving you a new one.

Is that on new accounts too?

Incompetent, you don’t even need an undergraduate degree to be a detective in Detroit:

Must be at least 18 years of age Must be a United States citizen Must have 20/20 vision or corrected 20/20 vision Must have normal color and depth perception vision Must hold a valid driver’s license Must have a good driving record Must have a high school diploma or GED Must have no felony convictions

This technology is going to be a nightmare when combined with decades of deliberately selecting for low iq in the police hiring process.

It seems obvious to check that the women in surveillance footage is also pregnant. But, if you have poor critical reasoning skills and you’re only looking for confirmation I can totally see how pregnancy could be missed.

Incompetence.

I would say the battery life on Apple Watch vs Garmin is totally different. The difference between charging every 5+ days vs every day is a huge qol difference. In my experience even if I turn off most of the Apple Watch features I still don’t get even close to 48 hours and that’s after losing most of what made the Watch feel smart. What it boils down to is if you want a smart watch or a fitness watch. If you want a smart watch then the Apple Watch is the obvious choice, but if you’re more interested in fitness tracking and stats then I think Garmin is probably the better choice.

Votes being public has made it possible to learn a bit about how people interact with posts. I’ve always used the downvote sparingly and I think that is how most people operate, downvoting only what doesn’t contribute to discussion and upvoting what I agree with. But it seems a minority downvote very frequently. There are some accounts that downvote the vast majority of posts in certain communities. Sometimes these accounts have zero posts and comments. Which is pretty odd - disagreeing with so much while never sharing your opinion.

Absolutely. Things have improved over the years, there is an official chrome extension for keychain that works on windows (although I’ve never used it so can’t comment on how well it works) it’s also possible to export your keychain database (although only using a Mac). The worst thing about keychain now is that, on iOS, it’s only accessible through settings which makes accessing 2FA codes a pain. I think keychain should be it’s own app.

Which password manager do you use? I am open to trying an alternative but having all my passwords in one place is really scary so I struggle to trust a third party.

Sometimes when making accounts online the suggested password prompt doesn’t show up. Until now I had been using an online random password generator to make the password when the prompt is not available. I just found out that if I go to the passwords screen in settings an manually add an account the password field is pre-filled with a random password which is very convenient.
