Welcome to the club. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphantasia I only know that terms like 'mental imagery' or 'daydreaming' aren't metaphorical because of another HN thread about it years ago.

I understand that HN swings US and we don't like editorialising titles, but this one sucks. It's every Onewheel in the US. "Every single Onewheel" has a clearly absolutist meaning, and the title should be edited to refle

It would be, but they didn't. I assume this was the reference point for that comment: > life is nothing but challenges and hardships. I refuse to throw a newborn life into this hellscape.

I guess that depends on that womans interests. Many women (and men, but less) are simply not career driven. Many stay at home parents build wonderful social lives around other parents at playgroups, schools etc and see their friends more th

I don't think anyone's queuing up for shows, but it doesn't hold the same cultural history, so the sensitivity and care is much less. Blackface as a subject (e.g the episode of Scrubs where it's just a funny bit) doesn&#

> 112 (Europe's 911) Small point, but many (most?) countries support 112, and it's definitely worth knowing as "911" likely won't work outside of the US.

> make the world better I really try hard not to mock people on HN, but you need to take a look in the mirror. Your sheltered world view of what "makes the world better" isn't reflective of everyone elses, nor objectively

Is the intent to completely remove the terms? That's a new angle I hadn't heard. I guess it makes said guilty feeling persons life easier, as they can't hear about the currently happening slavery in the world and can continue

Yep, I own it and have never played a second. I know I'd need a spare 3+ months.

Sure... But how much extra energy is consumer by people heating/cooling their 1-2 person homes now they're in it all day? Likely less than transit, and not zero. Regardless, the primary impact on climate change has always been and

How do you handle moderating your church that grew fairly rapidly to over a billion parishioners?

Can you pull video and input both emulated keyboard and mouse via a lightning port, all concurrently, or is that theoretical? I was mulling over a (legitimate) project recently and couldn't find any information about them all together.

However as per your link, there is growth on the 'premium' side, of which the model in question is.

A 2.1x modifier isn't fair though, because life cycle is also reduced by 1/3. Also, if I have a 15 Pro Max and it overheata, I'll simply go and have it replaced under sane consumer laws.

The "start from scratch" (or as we used to call it, 'nuke from orbit') approach is the only feasible one. If an attacker had full root across the org for an undetermined (but not short) period, I'm unsure what other

I have swum many times with an IP68 phone in chlorinated water. I also have used my phone in the shower, pretty much daily for years. I don't have any cracks in my device, which I suspect would change this.

If an unknown entity bursts violently into your office, locking your computer seems a very reasonable security precaution to take. I would assume the French legal system has methods like most democracies to require a company to retain data

Yeah, I cannot work out what happened here from the title, link and comments. Do Cloudflare provide ISP services? Is Cloudflares DNS not resolving Discord? Is Discord using Cloudflare as a CDN? What is "blocking traffic" in this c

Western culture is for sure the same, but Stallman specifically would not mind that question.

How so? No data is destroyed, just kept private.

That's nice. The cultural norms where you're from aren't necessarily reflective of the use of language elsewhere though.

Given what you outlaid, it doesn't sound like cost is a major factor. Why not buy an old iPhone or a new SE and leave it plugged in at home as a 'hub' for your cellular watch?
