Manlook!

You want a toe? I can get ya a toe. Believe me, there are ways dude, you don’t even wanna know about ‘em, believe me. Hell, I can get ya a toe by three o’clock this afternoon, with nail polish.

For anyone looking for a good iOS front end for their Audiobookshelf instance, I can highly recommended Plappa (and off topic Paperparrot for paperless by the same dev). One off and affordable purchase, no subscription.

Madness!

Yes.

How else would you make the most of your Beef-a-Reeno subscription?

Appreciate the walkthrough and follow up.

iOS Safari. The scaling is utterly fucked up. The page displays just half the width on load right off the bat. As one pinches to zoom out to get the full width, the font scales so small, it’s unreadable without zooming back in to half width. The site is peppered with ads to boot to add insult to injury. I don’t even try to hang around, good riddance.

Love the Archie comeback, but fuck arstechnica and their fucked up site format. They literally call themselves the „Art of Technology“ and can’t even get their website properly formatted for mobile. Pathetic.

This is a mission critical issue that prevents further adaptation for me. I could never use the calendar meaningfully for business purposes. It is absolute pain in the neck.

It also bugs me that there is no lookup for addresses/locations on calendar invites. For a premium-priced product, one can expect this to be functional. How hard can it be to integrate a call to openstreetmap or similar.

Frankly, the product feels a bit beta-ish for a paid for product.

Opioids have been linked to about 800,000 deaths in the U.S. since 1999, including more than 80,000 annually in recent years, with most of those involving illicitly produced fentanyl.

Aside from the argument re the appropriate use case to remedy the societal impacts, which are de facto unquantifiable, the ~$44bn settlements the article refers to juxtaposed with deaths caused by opioids equates to a mere $55000 per casualty.

PEANUTS. The figure is below the US national average income in Q3 2023, i.e $59,384.

The debt to the victims, survivors and humanity is unpayable.

You got your answers before, you just don’t want to accept them. The relationship between budget and performance expectation still borders delusion.

To quote u/Peachman who hit the nail on the head:

Looking for recommendations for a racecar, at least 800 horsepower. Needs to hit 60 mph in under 4 seconds. My budget is $2000. Please give recommendations. LOL

Fork out more money or lower your expectation.

Pop up: “We and our 692 partners…”

Goodbye!

You will own nothing but make us happy by paying us more for less in your privileged lives of enshitified dependency. Please note that you‘ll all be punished anyway. Toodles!

I see you are a person of culture.

Eventually I just went back to buying pre ground.

This sound!! I recognise this sound! Do you hear it? It‘s the doppler effect of pitchforks being dragged over the pavement.

TLDR, less nuanced:

Several meta-analyses and systematic reviews converge on the same message. An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and the roll-out of social media globally. Moreover, findings from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study, the largest long-term study of adolescent brain development in the United States, has found no evidence of drastic changes associated with digital-technology use. Haidt, a social psychologist at New York University, is a gifted storyteller, but his tale is currently one searching for evidence.
