I think they’re called “hygienic showers” and it’s basically a small showerhead with a thumb button on the end to turn on/off. They’re getting pretty trendy with new construction flats.
The only downside is that they tend to drip a bit after you return them to the cradle.
I get what you mean, but from the way you wrote it, I am now imagining someone slurping the crab in the kitchen for you :D
Watching youtubers play the souls games is pretty fun, although they do skip all the tedious bits.
Dunno about ugly, it has some gorgeous views, but I agree about tedious and boring.
The wow factor of finding new places did NOT offset the tiresome enemies that followed.
A simple spray hose next to the toilet is so great. Not only for use as a bidet but also for cleaning
Oh, I know the experience pretty well. The fun fun fun of having something stuck at 98% for a week or more :D
I was thinking, if the creator themselves would seed their stuff it could work - although I admit it’d have to have some kind of seed schedule and maybe some heuristic to see which videos were still available or not. There’d be problems with bandwidth, but I think it would at least allow a decentralised video network to exist, even if it would feel a bit more like watching anime in year 2010.
And yeah, fair point. I don’t really do live streams so I didn’t think about them. Honestly don’t know what a solution for that even could be, in terms of “everyone hosts a little bit to spread the load and price”.
Don’t really think it’d be that big of a mess for premiers, but then again I don’t see a big issue in waiting a day to get good content. Y’all are spoiled with cdns and social media /s :D! In my experience torrents propagate pretty quickly so it could still work. Think the bigger issue would be the fact that people have preference for different resolutions, so you’d end up with massive torrent downloads that have 4k, 2k, 1080p, 720p, etc. Or multiple torrent files for different resolution. The worst outcome would of course be “creator just dumps 8k 60fps content on the network and tells you good luck”.
Either way, I won’t pretend like torrent net could match the service of youtube right now - but I do think it could actually make a video network actually work, without prohibitive costs for the hosters and subscriptions for the basic users. It’d still be nice to support creators and the trackers but those aren’t as big of an ask as “host hundreds of 4k videos per creator forever”.
[edit] as a last minute thought - I think I know another reason why torrents may not work so well. You’d have to have an app or a browser extension to use them, which limits the accessibility compared to “open url and watch”.
I feel like the true decentralised approach to video that may work… Are torrents. Don’t know if PeerTube works that way, but if you’re allowing people to eat your bandwidth with direct streaming, you’re gonna run into problems sooner or later.
Anecdotally, I’ve heard people say they almost got into a crash because of lane assist, especially with the white/yellow temporary lines. But that does depend a ton on the car.
I have to agree that if you have to turn, you should be able to turn, lane assist be damned - we’re not yet at the level where a car can accurately judge 100% of the road situations. But it’s probably a good thing we’re moving into a future where crossing lanes without turn signals feels like a virtual bump on the road.
I just change certain keybinds to be GIMP-like whenever I switch drawing programs.
N is the pencil, CTRL-SHIFT-A is deselect. There’s something else, but I can’t remember right now.
Well, in GIMP you need to do the “float selection” before you can manipulate what you’ve selected properly. In Clip Studio Paint, for example, you select, press ctrl, and just drag whatever you clicked on to move. Way more intuitive (until you do it expecting to interact with active layer and instead move something in the overlay or behind).
I do love how GIMP allows you to work with transparency though.
Yeah, I find firefox tends to leak memory when you have youtube tabs open. Still using only firefox unless testing for compatibility but it is a thing.
Well, ignoring the mire of ancient bad idea compatibility, it’s nice to just have a REPL wherever you have a browser.
Man, I wish you could just use TS without some kind of preprocessor.
But I also wish JS had less footguns like “oh, this function returns an array-like object that has half of array methods… But not the one you want right now”.
Fair, but I’m trying to trick them into learning js here :P
On PC, you can open the browser console and type in
("your string").toUpperCase()
it’s usually on F12.
>> "Al".toUpperCase()
<- "AL"
Yeah, the reason I got this one is basically “I couldn’t find a cheaper one”.
I don’t have a Brother to compare it to, but it works just fine to print and scan documents. I got it set up on wifi because I wanted to shove it into a corner where it won’t get in the way, and it’s working perfectly fine.
Although their android app sucks.
Laser printers are great, althought I’ve got me a Pantum because I don’t anticipate printing more than one page a month.
It depends, but the place I’m staying at right now has it hooked up to hot and cold water with one of those sliding plate faucet handles.
