The scientists have also done some major updates to bypass failed components as well. The oh shit of pushing binaries to such an iconic device almost a light day out must be intense.

It's interesting to see how things look for various types of colour blindness.

I ran across this android app on another comment thread (on game accessibility I think). It's fun to play with.

Social guard rails over software.

My setup has basic protections to stop them stumbling into things they shouldn't be looking at. It's intended as a bumper, not a barrier. I know I won't be able to make it impenetrable without also making it almost unusable. Even then, that doesn't solve things, if they are around a friend's etc.

Instead, I talk through things with them, in an age appropriate manner. If you can get a continuous conversation going then you don't need to lock things down hard. It might get awkward and embarrassing for you, but it's far more effective in the long run.

This might also be of interest to you. https://media.ccc.de/v/emf2026-159-1-mum-can-i-play-roblox-navigating-online-gaming-safety

I don't like little flimsy phones. However, my current phone is at the upper limits of what I consider reasonable.

It's a ulefone 27T pro
Height: 182.8 mm
Width: 86.8 mm
Depth: 18.5 mm
Weight: 441 grams

I would say 500g is likely my hard limit, outside of special circumstances. As it stands, it doubles as a self defence weapon.

That's still survivable below 40% humidity. We can deal with a wet bulb temperature of 35°C or below. At 47°C that works out at around 40% humidity.

The wonders of an active cooling system.

It's also worth adding, if your child comes to you, having fucked up, don't berate them, they already know. E.g. sent nudes to someone who is now trying to blackmail them. It's so easy to do, under the pressure, but you must resist.

Instead thank them for coming to you, and let them know you can fix it together, they are not alone. You can discuss what they should have done, and what to do in the future once you're both thoroughly past emotional reactions to it. Till then you're in protection mode, not teaching mode.

She's in a teaching role. The motions need to be exaggerated, to be obvious to children watching and trying to copy. It's a bit like theatre actors over exaggerate, to make things visible from the back.

While it's focused on France. It also shows how bad it is in the UK, Germany, Italy and Spain. Spain is a bit more prepared for conditions like this, but the rest (Inc France) really aren't. The consequences of this potentially becoming the new normal are alarming, to say the least.

Europe's climate isn't dominated by 1 or 2 core effects. It's a balance of multiple competing ones. Climate change is affecting a lot of those, at the same time. It's hard to predict which way things will tip. E.g. if the golf stream fails, then we could get FAR colder winters.

Some of the new potential balances are more unpleasant/annoying, others are more deadly.

Unfortunately, we will see how it plays out over the next few decades. Short enough that us and our children will take the brunt of it. But long enough that a lot of leaders won't care yet, they won't live to see it.

I feel your frustration. I felt the same way about parenting. The number of "you'll understand when you're a parent" responses I got was depressing. Guess what, now I have a child to apply it on, my advice works awesomely 90% of the time.

Depending what you want it for, but a sports massage is possibly a good option.

I've had a few for work related muscle tension issues. It's a different mentality to the massage parlours. It's also a lot more effective at problem solving, rather than feel good relaxing.

Most of the cost is production and taxes. If demand falls, production resources (land etc) are diverted to more profitable crops. This makes supply fall until prices reach a new equilibrium.

Taxes then add a fixed offset to that.

Sometimes it's an unpleasant balancing act. If you punish too excessively, then it causes more harm. Companies that would have cooperated, or even come forward voluntarily, will, instead, bury the info. This can slow/stop the recall process and lead to more harm.

We don't know enough details about what happened in the background to judge too harshly. They might have bent over backwards, behind the scenes to help fix the damage (or the regulators were lazy).

Fully agreed, which is why most people are reluctant to actively fight.

Project Zomboid but on normal mode here. At least I don't have sprinters enabled...

Voting will be the breakpoint. Either it will be fair, and people's voices will be heard. Or they will screw you, and the next option will be blood on the streets.

People at least wanting to wait to try the last non-violent option first is not unreasonable.

Her powers were awesomely creepy. The "bug teleporting" trick, she didn't realise she was doing, particularly.

When my wife was breastfeeding, I was told my grandfather was quite old fashioned in his views on breastfeeding (it should be done in private. At a family gathering, my wife went off to another room, to not make him feel uncomfortable. Shortly afterwards, we realised my grandfather had noticed she was missing, and went to keep her company. He would rather feel uncomfortable himself than let my wife feel pushed out. (He was completely unaware of the previous discussions)

As a parent, if my kid did that, I'd likely side with the neighbour. I would put it (very loosely) in the category of "natural consequence" punishments.

It fits the crime, it discourages the crime, it forces empathy with the cat, and it does no real harm.

I was curious and looked it up. Apparently it mostly happens between trees of the same species, with several causes.

Most are mechanical. The tips brush against each other, and damage new branches and leaves. Both trees divert growth away from the area.

Some also sense shading via red light. They focus growth away from shade. This means neither tree grows into the gap, since they are partially shading each other.

It also helps limit the spread of leaf eating parasites. Again, particularly useful in a forest of the same species.

So yes, the trees are social distancing, to avoid the spread of disease.
