I mean she married a roadkill-collecting, brain-worm-eaten, anti-vax, anti-Semitic, conspiracy theorizing, generally bigoted lunatic. Like the type of person “lunatic” was coined for. I have a feeling that thoughtfulness and true romance were not at the heart of that decision, as a failing actress now tethered to someone with the last name “Kennedy.” Either conniving and uncaring or a top-tier loon herself.

The more deeply and unanimously red your local lawmakers consider their electorate, the more confident they will be pushing right and far right legislation and building MAGA cultishness. It won’t change who’s elected, but it can change how your local lawmakers think about what their community wants.

Yeah I’d absolutely consider replacing or augmenting my display with something like these glasses, but asking people to pay more, downgrade specs, replace their whole system, all while picking up an unfamiliar OS… I’ll wait for the gen 2. Or 4.

I don’t know who this man is, but his face is too small for his head.
Hard disagree that earbuds negate codec importance. I love open-back over-ears, but one of my best pairs of headphones are Moondrop IEMs, and I can hear differences in audio quality more noticeably on them than a lot of speakers. I very often plug them into a Bluetooth receiver for semi-wireless convenience, and I can absolutely hear the difference between LDAC and SBC.
However, yeah definitely agreed that $150 is fair for what’s being offered here. Limited codec support is common (if unfortunate) enough in similarly priced gear without the other benefits these bring, so I’d say it’s fair enough unless the drivers themselves are bad.
Apparently now you’d have to go to Gozo (with dive gear…) to get a shot like this!
I personally like having purpose-specific machines. I don’t want to associate my mobile phone with work and I don’t want it going off with every work email I get. I also want to be able to work faster than I would with a tiny display and no real keyboard.
At the same time, I want to use my work machines as little as possible, because that means I am working as little as possible lol. I find that physical separation of professional and personal equipment, beyond aiding workflow and efficiency, is psychologically helpful for me destressing when I’m not working.
Plus there are so many things that, sure, a phone can do, but a larger device is just so much better at. Writing anything over 200 characters, watching videos (particularly watching videos, erm, one-handed…), reading and writing anything complex, running multiple programs/tabs, accessing complex sites and apps, and a whole lot more.
Do I use full-sized devices much less because of my phone? For sure. Could I ever imagine going phone-only? Not a chance.
Definitely depends on the field. Most “humanities” studies require a masters first, although for that reason many PhD programs include the step of getting your masters so it can all be done as a single track. So still a standard ~6 year program but you get both, masters after the first 3 and then PhD after 3 more. I’ve only ever run with folks in humanities I’m realizing, so I didn’t even realize there were PhDs you could get without a masters
Because of the taste? While it’s not common to brew a drink with other beans, we eat them all the time, and it’s pretty obvious in doing so that they aren’t flavors that lend themselves to a beverage.
Coffee beans are actually the seed of a more traditional “fruit” (ie, sweet and acidic) rather than a legume like other beans (also technically seeds, but vegetal in flavor, with an entirely different taste and texture). You’re basically just going to get a weak broth from traditional beans.
Similarly, people have tried steeping every type of leaf, plant, and fruit out there in water, but it’s a pretty limited list that remains popularly used for tea, as it’s a pretty limited list (relative to the incredible diversity of plant life) that actually tastes good that way.
People use mushrooms, various roots (like chicory), other fruity seeds, and more to create coffee-like drinks, and/so with the number of people and cultures out there with their own tastes and traditions, it’s a relatively safe bet that if people aren’t drinking it anywhere in the world, it’s because they’ve tried it and it just doesn’t taste good.
