I wish I’d learnt how to learn before I went to university.

Typically I’ve seen survey software remember where you were up to if you leave and come back to the page. This one doesn’t seem to do that.
Well I got the the last section of the survey, accidentally triggered the pull down refresh of the browser, and it’s completely forgotten everything I entered. I don’t think I can be bothered starting again 😩
We allocate money for the kids to donate to charity. Some loose rules around what does and doesn’t count but generally the kids get to decide.
Not technically charity but I’ve made a push to support OSS and other small-tech projects this past year. Regular contributions of a few dollars a month each to things like the maintainer of my linux distro and the guy that makes Kodi plugins I use, and pushing to financially support commecial OSS such as Proton Mail and Bitwarden. I’m just realising I don’t actually have a list, I should probably work out exactly where my money is going.
Hmm I guess “cozy” games are a genre, but I kinda felt like they are games that make you feel cozy, fun without the stress. If a game sucks then I don’t know I’d consider it “cozy”.
Yeah all you’ve done is put the family name first. Which is already a thing in some parts of the world.
I only read the blurb but it clearly says “In some circumstances”. I’m guessing those circumstances are after following a full process, not ordering a suicide capsule and taking it for a spin.
Something something his noodley appendage?
When I got the phone I also got one of the glass screen protectors, which was advertised as being extra thin for good touch sensitivity.
I shattered it trying to peel the plastic backing off, and never got around to getting a new one.
That one you linked looks like it would suit someone like me a bit better.
I have a Pixel 7 Pro and have never had an issue. I don’t have a screen protector on, if that makes a difference.
I’ll put up with it but has their ever been a person who wanted the document to open as a modal window inside Teams where you can’t even go back to the chat of the person who sent it without closing it?
So you have to open in browser and then open the browser version in desktop.
I don’t really hate Teams but that really triggers me. Otherwise I feel like Teams and I have a lot in common (like the whole tried to do too much and so does nothing well thing).
I can easily search up people talking about both the Windows and MacOS system wide spell checks. While for Linux you just find people talking about how dumb it is everything uses different implementations: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/hu4ktg/does_systemwide_autocorrect_and_typo_flagging/
As for NZ English words, it would mostly be words that have come from the Māori language including place names and people’s names.
In theory having multi-language spell check would solve most of the issues, but I’ve never seen Māori as a supported language on Linux.
For some examples of words, there are place names like Taranaki, Te Anau, Te Awamutu. People’s names like Hone Harawera or Apirana Ngata. And common words and phrases that have made it into English like Kia ora (mostly used in English as a greeting) and Aotearoa (a name for New Zealand). There will also be company and product names as well.
I can’t believe it but there is a wikipedia page for it! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/None_Pizza_with_Left_Beef
If you follow the source trail it lists Cloudscene as the source, who seem to be some marketplace for buying and selling cloud services. I highly suspect it’s a count of the data centers they have listed by their sellers, which would bias the US and explain why there are so few for China.
If you follow the trail you get Cloudscene as a source: https://cloudscene.com/region/datacenters-in-north-america
They seem to be some cloud services marketplaces, where they link up buyers and sellers. I suspect it only lists the data centers that they have listed that are included in the graphic. That would make a lot of sense, since Chinese data centers used to service people in China are unlikely to be listed, which is why it says in all of China there are only 300 data centers.
Sometimes I barely chuckle at the funniest things. And then other times I can’t stop laughing over the dumbest shit. Like this 🤣
Haha I get that I can’t really expect better than “English”, or maybe “US English” and “UK English”, but having a system wide dictionary I can add words to by right clicking and choosing “add to dictionary” would be nice.
As I understand it, each program keeps their own.
Linux in general has good language support.
I’ve yet to find a distro with NZ English 😆. I’d love to just start a new dictionary and add words to it for all the spell checks, but I’ve never worked out how to do this. I’m not sure there’s even system level spell check.
This is a cool game. How are people playing it? Do you do it all blind, or do you use details to do searches and try to work out the answers based on what you can research?
Both could be fun but it would be less fun to compare scores against someone doing the other method.
