I think the oddness is the LLM content generator conflating information about the 2 types of batteries.
I have one of the originals too, I only use it in an emergency (e.g. maintaining a Raspberry Pi) because the trackpad is so awful - I can't type on it because the cursor jumps all over the place. That basically…
You reminded me of one of the first Mac games I got as a kid: Shufflepuck Cafe, I don't think it had spin but the sideways speed of your mouse was imparted on the puck
My in-laws had a Dualit toaster. I am convinced this brand only survives in the market because people think they want one to signify that they've "made it", like getting an Aga. The incredibly loud mechanical timer…
Duck duck go is worth trying, it's like Google from the old days
I started with Droidcam during the pandemic and switched to Iriun. Currently using it with an old iPhone SE over USB, but also used with Huawei P20 Pro. Not many features, but just works. https://iriun.com/
I don't know if there are many cricket fans here, but I wondered if this is why - when watching the Ashes highlights of the cricket on BBC iPlayer or YouTube - the ball seems transparent as it runs over the grass.
You can refer to this list before naming that -copter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_numerical_multiplier If enough of us are saying Tetracopter, it will stick.
Interesting article, I was initially very confused as I assumed Nautilus was the seabed mining company, which I bid some work to about 15 years ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nautilus_Minerals?wprov=sfla1
It's the toilet cubicles. Americans have renormalised having a communal poo like the Romans.
Sounds great, but I feel we'll be wading through ads and product placement
Beat me to it...
Thanks ChatGPT, your land border fact is wrong. Here are some longer borders. Canada - United States 8,893km Kazakhstan - Russia 7,644km Argentina - Chile 6,691km…

In London, in an apartment block, I tried BT broadband (60Mbps max), then Virgin cable (100Mbps for £55 / month, prices go up for more speed), then EE 4G (£30 / month for 200Mbps +/-50Mbps, unlimited d/l upload is also…
Thanks for this this comment, at least on Huawei's version of Android UI it's not at all obvious that the year is a button.

I loved Calca, paid and used it for years, but it seems to have stopped development and I switched OS... So I ended up falling back to Excel
Developers, rhymes with interlopers
We're currently crossing seas, not just the channel. Nice little map with stats here: https://www.nationalgrid.com/our-businesses/national-grid-ve... A few years ago I saw a talk by an industrial chemist, long distance…
I work in the sector (offshore renewables and O&G), here are a couple of interesting ones: 1. Short installation window: they can only install this machine when the tides are changing (i.e. not much flow), so they only…
The new Let() function gives you multi row formulas, with local variables. https://insider.office.com/en-us/blog/let-names-in-formulas-... And it's a hack, but you can put text comments inside an N() function and add…
A Kent Braeburn in season is pure joy. Your description of the remaining months, primarily imported, is spot on.
I'm a su-dougher, because "pseudo" reminds me I can be someone else.
