A friend re-introduced me to James Blake and I’m really digging it.

Also Mac here. I started with a linux laptop but still have to do some desktop support work for the company and since they all use Mac it’s just easier to dogfood it. At least I have a decent terminal emulator.

I did Soylent for a year or so and have zero regrets. I felt better, lost weight and probably saved some money. I ate it for most meals but would probably make dinner for myself about half the time just for some variety. Hope you have a good experience with it!

We’ve got number two on the way and my mother is furiously trying to finish another baby blanket. I wish you luck, I know baby will appreciate it.

BetaFPV Meteor75 Pro with walksnail, I got the RadioMaster Pocket and Caddx Goggles X. I wanted something I could fly indoors and I really wanted digital hd video and that seemed like it checked both boxes.

I’m getting an fpv quadcopter setup for myself for my birthday this year and I’m waiting for the drone to arrive. I’m super excited to fly for the first time. I’ve been practicing in a simulator and watching videos and researching to make sure I understand the tools, technology and regulation around the hobby. I’ve been completely absorbed for a month now and I’m going nuts waiting for this package to arrive. I haven’t felt like this since I was a tiny person probably. I’m super obsessed at the moment.

Let’s go

really appreciate you reporting back, thanks for sharing!

Right there with ya.

I didn’t realize this, didn’t get enough press. Another notch in Biden’s belt, that’s fantastic!

It’s so cool I want to die 😩. I would never use it but it looks great.

I think it is measured and professionals who work in areas where this was relevant probably track this number among many others. I think the real question you are asking is why it is always framed as a % of GDP in public discussion and news reporting. Some people here point out how % of GDP can be more useful for comparing across countries with vastly different sized economies but I think we all know the real answer has more to do with how people perceive the value differently by using the larger number. Framing government debt as a % of GDP serves the zeitgeist, whatever that is.

this is great! It was good before, I’m excited for better

I don’t get this sentiment, not a m$ fan but the surface hardware always made sense to me. Full laptop specs in a tablet style shape with a unique and useful aspect ratio. Sure they gimped the processor but it’s still 4 times as much CPU as an ipad. It’s a shame that android or IOS seem to be the only truly usable tablet operating systems these days.

As a side note I’m pretty shocked still at how poorly windows 11 performs on my SP7. It’s weirdly bad considering it’s their own damn hardware. There have been improvements since these things ran Windows 8 but touch still feels like a gimmick rather than a first class experience.

This is really pretty. Thanks for sharing!

I got upset about this as a child. Years of adults of telling me that the moon was a night only thing and it was all lies.

I installed some arch variant with a custom kernel that included the drivers on my SP3 a few years ago. Performed great, stable. Battery was meh, lost maybe 30% capacity which was pretty par for the course but maybe could have improved with more tuning. Tried using it primarily as a tablet and that sucked. Ran scripts to do things like help with palm rejection but it was just a poor tablet experience overall. Not that Windows provides a significantly better one. But certainly more usable.

It’s been 5 years though so maybe everything is better 🤞 . Please tell me if it is, I am thinking about flashing that same SP3 back to linux to be a dashboard somewhere.

fuck ticketmaster is really all I have to say

Well which ones? I got a kid and can’t watch the vid

There’s absolutely a place for generated music. I have no doubt I’ll be bobbing my head to some ai beats before long. I think I was just bemoaning the changing of the things. Effort in the cause of good and beauty should always be rewarded.
