I wonder if using the character itself in the directions, instead of the name for the character, might help with this. Something like, "Forbidden character list: [—, –]" or "Do NOT use the characters '—' or '–&

I could imagine a vision-enabled transformer model being useful to create a customizable “reading mode”, that adjusts page layout based on things like user prefs, monitor/window size, ad recognition, visual detail of images, informatio

Triple shift pops up a red "Access Denied" message in the middle of the screen. Alt just shifts focus to the browser's toolbar, at least in Chrome.

Depending on the client device, you can often put it into pairing mode immediately upon turning it on to prevent auto-connect, then click connect from the desired host device. Still annoying but slightly less so than having to disable bluet

I have been in a car accident that, in the instant of impact, felt indistinguishable from an explosion, too fast to process anything. I imagine the massive pressure change would cause near-instant incapacitation if not death.

A raccoon can definitely kill and eat (part of) a chicken so I’d imagine a crow could be on the menu. Or a coyote. Or a possum or bear. There are vids of deer eating birds and other animals.

Maybe something like Chia (chia.net) that "farms" from pre-computed "plots" as proof of work? There is still an energy intensive cost to the initial plot creation phase, but it is soon amortized by the low cost farming p
