My 14" M1 Pro out of nowhere just died on me in May after 3 years and 11 months. 'Bad luck' was the verdict of the Apple store. This never happened to me since my first G4 tower. I now have the M5 Pro since i'm stuck in

Due to lack of running water in those times (and still in many cottages) cooking is done above a fire, water is brought from the lake. A kitchen won't serve you well if you're just trying to get through a long winter of -30c.

Aren't those things organised the same way Apple face id is organised where the app itself can't get the biometric information, they just get a yes or no? That would be stupid as hell. In Finland the government has allowed banks t

Didn't five climate activists in the UK just get 4-5 years for being on a zoom call for merely planning to block a junction?

I'm right there with you on all those things! One thing to add: If you want to think even less in the morning. Just weigh the beans and water with a kitchen scale. 18 gr of beans, 160gr of (boiling) water (basically a 1:9 ratio regardi

Did you feel it was money well spent? I'm nearing 40 and I'm wondering wether i should get into the routine of a scan like that every few years..

In terms of pricing model Adobe is generous compared to Figma. Someone with their own creative cloud subscription can open my .psd's. But if I want to collaborate with someone in Figma, I need to pay for their access even if they have

What permanent bad effect do you think it has left? I do wonder about this too. I binge drank between 14-16 years old, started smoking weed around the same time - and smoked daily from 20-25. After that I did a short bout of therapy and wal

Curious that there's so many more rescues in the UK than mainland Europe.

Second this. Happy to pay for 5km2 although i'd probably crop out 1km2. But I'd love to be able to understand what size i'd be able to print that 1km2 at using 300dpi. I guess art prints aren't exactly the core use case

I recently learned that there's a special washing detergent and heat activated coating that you're supposed to treat Goretex with quite often. And sure enough when I did the water drops form beads again instead of soaking it. I&#x

This happened to me with employment insurance just a month ago. Invoice went to the old address. I paid the invoice 4 days after the due date, but not the €10 late fee that i didn't know about. So they put the €10 late fee to debt coll

If you've got some money, get custom molded earplugs made for sleeping. Places selling hearing aids sell them. They spray some foam in your ear to take the print, and you get the custom plugs in the mail a few weeks later. €140 is a l

With selling dreams they mean selling the scene in which your insecurity has been relieved. People feel pinned down in their life, so a common dream sold is to be free. Think of Mac and their proposition of enabling your creativity (a crea

The FiveStar party in Italy did this. They had an online platform for their members, and apparently the way it went was that they'd first massage everyones opinion in the forums, and then let them vote. I read it in a great long read f

Slightly off topic but does anyone know a webbased slide editor that has responsive layout built in? Something like Indesign’s liquid layout feature? There’s so much happening in this space and yet everyone sticks to fixed desktop format.

I could imagine the commenter you're responding to also means the companies you're competing with for sales. Not just employees in the same company.

It has to do with the way western medicine is organized. It’s optimized for treating diagnosable illnesses, and does that very well. Complex multisystem diseases like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome express themselves differently in every patient. D

In Helsinki I'm wondering if building expensive buildings will make sure the 'bubble' won't break. Banks will just give people larger loans. Move to a situation like Sweden where you don't even intend to fully pay i

I'd say the system for coordination is pretty good in Europe. There is a specialist EU agency for fisheries inspection (The EFCA located in Vigo, Spain) A lot is being done there to ensure the rules are abided. Placing inspectors on bo

Which is interesting because Morihiro Harano (who conceptualised and created the xylophone video) directed the OK Go music video for I won't let you go, partnered with Honda. Chevy was first though, if i'm not mistaken.

I checked and at least in Germany Adobe offers the monthly subscription. It's a little more expensive as can be expected. I purchased it some years ago, and then cancelling after a few months they tried to charge the rest of the year,
