You can only manipulate one particle at a time.

Everyone knows where the gold is stored.

I know there’s a lot of hate for Microsoft on Lemmy, but WSL is one of the best parts of Windows. It’s really powerful and well integrated to Windows. Since I still can’t leave for pure Linux install, I’m glad for WSL.

Notice that the dimensions in the picture are marked only for the screen proper, not including bezels.

The box for HTC HD2 had <---- BIG ----> as dimensions of the phone. It had a 4.3" screen that actually was huge at the time (2009), but it’s hilarious from today’s perspective.

What would be the impact on everyday life if a nuclear EMP destroyed all electronics in our lives instantly? First there are a lot of dead from car / plane crashes, then most patients in hospitals, then many due to running out of water and food. And what’s left of the society then collapses into barbarism, violence and fighting for resources.

It’s possible something like this would happen should the nuclear weapons of today be used. The book is hard to stomach, but everyone should be aware of the possibility and be at least knowledgeable in survival without modern technology (if not outright stocked up in a doomsday vault).

One Second After - W. R. Forstchen

Please everyone, read this book. It’s sad, disgusting and heavy, but it’s probably a documentary for events that may happen one day. It’s very well researched and the plausibility and realism make it even scarier. It hasn’t turned me into a prepper, but in part motivated me to make our house as self-sufficient as possible. Also it made me aware of small useful things in my surroundings that I used to be blind to.

Standing desk (electric, not crank operated) + tiny under-desk stationary bike. Sitting the whole day working/gaming and still getting to do some physical activity is great.

3D printer (I’ve got Prusa MK4+MMU3). It’s an amazing versatile utility, great skill to have, and a fun hobby. Don’t buy cheap chinese clones, it’s not worth the hassle.

I took up online tutoring and teaching programming for kids. It has great benefits:

• It’s an hour or so after work, it has a fixed schedule so it forces me to clock out
• it makes me focus hard so I completely forget about work
• it pays for itself (not my corporate day-job rate, but I’m not doing it for free)
• I can try out languages and tech I’d normally wouldn’t be able to in my day job, or I’d have to invest my free time for a side project
• I have a background in teaching… I like it, it’s fun and refreshing
• I’ve helped many kids jump start their interest in programming even in families that know nothing about tech at all. I’ve helped a few of them to get accepted to the school they wanted to and pursue a career in programming

All in all, teaching after work makes for a great hobby and a strong barrier for my day job so I don’t find myself working late anymore.

The term ‘Quiet quitting’ in this context is not about quitting your job without complaining.

Quiet quitting refers to doing the minimum requirements of one’s job and putting in no more time, effort, or enthusiasm than absolutely necessary.

SAO / Matrix level immersive VR

Why not use winget or chocolatey instead? They allow for auto updates and have much wider library. Winget can even pull from msstore if necessary. There’s even a convenient WingetUI that consolidates them and others (winget, choco, scoop, npm, .net, pip, etc.) to a single app manager.

I have great news for you: check out Ferdium.

It was a Bored Ape event "ApeFest’ in November. They used harmful UV bulbs instead of regular black light for decoration.

I highly recommend PowerToys Run (something like Mac’s Spotlight) with Everything plugin (better search).

How’s that ruined? That’s epic!

And hair! Don’t forget hair. Lots and lots of hair…

Well if you don’t have friends, the OP doesn’t apply anyway…

This. Youtube is getting progressively more annoying (my train to switch on PC), but what pushed me was Dark Reader on mobile.

Artificial doesn’t mean imaginary.
