My understanding that this scenario is exactly what happened here.
The sound effects were way better back then. "You've got mail!". The doors opening/closing. Though maybe it's different because back then, then meant someone I wanted to interact with was now available. Today, a chat…
Who forced this? Was it actually the Biden administration, or was it university policies?
And what if you're deaf?
>> At my previous job if something went down on our site, it was a four alarm fire, war room, and all hands on deck to get it resolved or heads would roll. It was so dysfunctional to work somewhere when something broke…
"The dash display is almost completely digital—strangely, they left an extra analog speedometer and tachometer" This is common even today, even on 100% digital screen dashboards, they'll have fake analog speedometer and…
B&H (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/) is somewhat like this. Super popular business, but you can't order online on Saturdays. You can browse the website, just not place an order. Their physical store is also closed on…
Yeah, what qingcharles says. I personally can't say I've seen what's special about 24fps artistically, but it doesn't bother me from a technical perspective (as much).
For decades now, when I enter a bar or restaurant I turn down the volume of my hearing aid. Not because everything is too loud, but because it allows me to hear spoken speech much better. It doesn't work quite as well…
I for one would love to see us drop the fractional frame rates (29.97, etc). They're an archaic technical relic that cause trouble when working with timecode. At Sphere we debated standardizing on 30/60/120fps but…
That doesn't surprise me too much. I never really used Spotify or any music app much in the past. This discovery was a convergence of things - switching from Android to iPhone, a renewed exercise routine, and most…
I'm severely hearing impaired and enjoy going to dance classes - swing, salsa, etc. If I'm standing still, I can easily tune into the beat. But once I start moving, I quickly lose it on many songs; dance studios aren't…
Guaranteed that marketers are salivating at the idea of eye tracking on apps and website. It's an amazing feature that absolutely needs to be gatekept.
Boy the bots are thirsty today... But anyho, most of this is actually news to me. One bit that doesn't make sense to me is how caves or rock overhangings don't provide protection. I'm not following that, if it saying…
At least for me, I've always associated preferring mouse inversion with growing up handling BB guns. When you're lifting a rifle up, you are pulling back/contracting on the right arm. When aiming, to go up you nudge the…
I disagree, I find the total keyboard experience much better on Android. To each their own, obviously. But... yeah, IMO it's pretty bad on Apple.
They're ALL raising rates. You might be able to change to a cheaper one this year, but next year your cheaper company will have implemented a 20%+ increase.
I loved thinking about people 500 years ago walking on the same stones I was walking on, and thinking about what the exact spot I was currently standing on was like back then. What did it smell like? What did you see?…
Then you did a tiny piece of it and have chosen to extrapolate from that tiny piece. If it's not for you, that's totally OK. It IS something for many other people.
The Camino is vastly superior, just in a very different way. ETA: I shouldn't say it's vastly superior, rather the Camino is a very, very different experience from the trails alluded to here, and is superior in relation…
I haven't done it myself, but everything I've seen says the AT is a completely different kind of experience. You need to (should be) in reasonably good shape, you have to carry a lot more gear (ties into the first…
Last fall I hiked 500 miles of a Camino trail in Spain. It was a fantastic experience and really made me wish we had something similar in the U.S. This is a good start, though the trail itself is only half the picture.…
If I'm reading this right it's not quite apples for apples, as it's comparing the cost to create and move the beef, but doesn't consider the cost to create the car, only the movement of the car.
My early 1910s Manhattan building was fantastically quiet, with very thick walls. The only noise I ever heard was floor noise directly above me, never to the sides. I'm guessing mid-1900s to early 2000s buildings are…
Just thinking through everything this implies. Would it be safe to assume this means some people if not entire departments will be laid off? Not as much need for financial aid, bursar's office, etc. Overall it's a great…
