Tippon,

There was an article published last year, maybe the year before, where they tested the touch screen kiosks in McDonald’s. Every single one of them has traces of faeces on it.

Even if that wasn’t true, it takes me significantly less time to tell someone my order than to scroll through however many sub menus the restaurant has decided to put their food into, and then select the options for each item and add it to my basket, then check out.

Tippon,

All of those things are cleaned before being consumed. The touch screen menus are one of the last things you touch before touching and eating your food.

The world may not be a clean room, but that doesn’t mean that I’m going to deliberately interact with someone else’s faeces, especially when I’m about to eat.

Tippon,

I’ll second Mint. It’s got a similar layout to Windows, so eases you in, and everything just works.

Tippon,

Nah, guitar is the musical equivalent to football (soccer). It’s cheap, easy to learn, you can take it with you, and you can play with your friends.

The trope of a kid turning up with their guitar couldn’t happen with a piano.

Tippon,

Never mind snoring, imagine how bad a cold would be!

Tippon,

Yes, but with a tweak.

Being able to tell how much food you need in advance would be better, so that instead of thinking that you’re really hungry and piling your plate, you only buy or prepare as much food as you need. That would cut down on food waste too.

Tippon,

More than that, they should be banned

Tippon,

The time between pop up ads / excessive ads and ad blockers being introduced wasn’t that long. You’d get some annoying banner ads, but the intrusive ones were quickly blocked.

Tippon,

Vanilla.

The only reason I didn’t mention it is because it’s for copying links, whereas the extension should do it while opening, without needing to copy it first.

Tippon, (edited )

There’s an extension for Firefox and maybe Chrome that should help. I think it’s called ClearURL, or something similar. It removes the trackers from the ends of URLs

EDIT: That’s assuming that it’s a legitimate tracking URL, and not something that’s been added by malware.

Tippon,

I mean, directly “mounting” the camera to the phone and shooting with the phone.

This is pretty standard on most decent cameras, although it’s usually used with the camera and phone separate. Photographers will set up a a camera on a tripod and use a phone or laptop to control it remotely. It can be used to control multiple cameras.

The youtube and tiktok generation will mount the phone to the top of the camera, usually using the flash mount, and face it forwards. This way they can see the screen while they’re facing the camera, and be able to see the framing of the shot while they’re shooting.

The biggest problem you’ll find is that the phone apps are designed for Android and Apple, or maybe Windows Phone. I haven’t used a Linux phone, so I don’t know if they run their own apps, or if they run Linux programs. If they run Linux programs, then it’s just a case of finding one that controls your specific camera, and has the controls that you want.

What are your best air fryer/oven recipes?

My parents got me one of them fancy countertop air fryer/oven things and idk what to cook first when I get it set up. According to the box, it does everything a normal oven does as well as air fries. It can hold two whole chickens or 1 frozen pizza. It came with a rack for things like toast and a baking sheet. I also have a...

Tippon,

Chicken nuggets and fish fingers are my favourites, mainly because they’re so tasty for how quickly they cook.

Preheat the air fryer for 2 - 3 minutes, spray a small amount of oil, then put the food in for about 12 minutes. Crispy and delicious every time :)

Tippon,

This is the right idea. Cycling excludes the disabled and elderly, and doesn’t improve things for families either. Putting the public servants on public transport would incentivise them to make it better, and that would make access better for everyone.

I’d give the buildings some parking for night workers, if they’re not able to use the visitor or disabled parking, just because lots of public transport doesn’t run overnight, and it wouldn’t make sense for it to run.

Tippon,

This is one of the reasons why my Windows bootloader is currently broken. I made a similar mistake a few years ago, and now I don’t have the mental energy to make sure that everything’s ready in case Windows screws up again

Tippon,

Nope, at least not in the UK.

I bought a Switch each for me and my kid for Christmas last year. Mine was second hand and a v1, but my kids was a brand new v1. Mine turned out to be faulty, so I returned it and bought a new one about a month or two later, and got a brand new v1.

Chances are we got the last of the old stock, but if we bought them a few months apart and both got the v1, there are probably still a decent amount out there still under warranty.

Tippon,

Oh thank god for that!

I forgot about Komodo dragons for a minute, and my brain went to Odo on a commode - o 🙈

Tippon,

My body is trying to be the federation, but my immune system is made up of angry Klingons

That’s the biggest problem. I used to use a suspension service for Chrome that would change your open links to its own format when a tab was suspended. I bookmarked hundreds of links in their format over the years.

The service was bought out by a third party, then sold to a scammer, leading to it getting banned by Google.

I’ve now got hundreds of links that are obfuscated, and the only way to get them back is to manually edit them and see which ones are important.

Tippon,

Or was sentenced for both.
