The appletv is such a good device that I’m paying it whatever the price may be.

TVs have horrible UIs and are generally ad ridden garbage. Not using anything android based because of the same reason and slow.


Google TV UI is fine, only one I accept other than Apple TV


Not a doctor, but I suppose she should’ve eventually told them in the interest of science. Also, pregnancy has a heavy toll so who knows? Maybe it was a good thing she didn’t. We don’t know.

Glad she had a largely fulfilling life, but also thinking this. As much as it was her choice what to do with her body, it’s probably a good idea to at least tell the healthcare professionals about things like that, even if after the fact.

No, the pipeline to handle this feedback is completely missing from modern medical practices.

There is not really any way for a doctor to make use of this information to advance medical research.


> In latex i actually wrote in markdown and compiled to latex.

Sure, but if you want to just _write_ then latex is just fine. I don’t understand why you had to write in markdown?

There’s just no way to donate to just Wikipedia (to specially only the server costs or upkeep) but ignore whatever else the organization is up to.

Same story with Mozilla, there’s no way to donate to just the development of Firefox.

Donating to your local chapter might still work! (It's what I do at least)


From the guidelines: …anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

I wouldn’t have know this fact if not for this article.


I read it as months. Super confusing.


I don't understand the sentence in question any way.

"TikTok, Pornhub, Candy Crush, Sudoku" has never been a replacement for "meet for drinks, work out at the gym, go on dates"

To be fair, I have not used TikTok or Candy Crush, but let's say Youtube Shorts and a random video game instead. Still does not compute.
