Please keep Wikipedia up to date while you’re at it. Thanks.

You would recommend trades as a second/side job? Seems like it’d be a bit taxing physically and not flexible on scheduling – I could be wrong.

Unimportant, and probably unintelligent, question - does he have enough assets to go on with life or does he have to look for a job now? Does some easy position just get handed to him on name alone?

anyone had luck with these fly-by night cell carriers? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

As a primary internet source I could not recommend Visible. The de-prioritization was very noticeable and the coverage wasn’t great. (Even Verizon is piggybacking on some carriers in some areas - and in those areas Visible isn’t supported.)

I kept it around for a while for large file downloads - it was slow but I didn’t have to worry about data caps. Eventually I dropped it when I got a Starlink.

Yup. Although I have no clue what it’s release schedule is these days.

A quick glance says Stardew valley supports multiple languages – but honestly not sure as I’m usually around a PC.

Duolingo was mentioned.

But one of the good things about AAA games is that they’re often voiced and captioned in multiple languages.

So, after picking up some basics – give a new player + playthrough of something you’re already familiar with in a new language.

Appreciated. It’s working – I guess I’m not used to swiping from the extreme edge of the screen.

Oddly doesn’t seem to do anything - just the up/down swipe inputs are registering as scrolling.

American Employee: What Constitutes A Resignation (reddthat.com)
 

A sudden exodus of employees is causing leadership to panic and suddenly puts me under a microscope with questions like:

  • Are you going to leave?
  • What can we do to keep you from leaving?
  • Do you see yourself here in 1 year?

These are all semi valid questions to ask in the best interest of the company. But I’m curious how this information could be used.

This all got me thinking – at what point could – “no - I don’t see myself in a year” be used as a resignation with a 1 year notice – and then terminated after ~3 months and be ineligible for unemployment since you “technically” resigned.

Easily Access Browser In Big Picture? (reddthat.com)
 

I assume the answer is currently no and can probably survive with alt tabbing around.

In the old version of Big Picture you could bring up a browser in the Steam overlay while playing mid game. This allowed for quickly accessing online references and even bookmarking online guides etc.

I’m aware of accessing Steam guides and notes - and these are great features. But is there a way to easily access online information while playing?

Is there a push to make product containers re-usable? (reddthat.com)
 

I’m looking at an empty bottle of Valentina hot sauce. It has a flip top cap but is not twist off and seems to be press fitted on in some way - ideally there would be a way to easily remove it and re-purpose the container or at least clean it out for recycling.

With some recent legislation in some countries to standardize USB-C it got me wondering if there are pushes elsewhere or if maybe it’s just my country just hasn’t caught up on things.

Is it possible to combine Bluetooth audio connections to one headset? (reddthat.com)

I frequently wear a pair of Bluetooth headphones paired to a computer. If I want to listen to something on my phone I have to re-pair the device to my phone.

Is it possible, through software or hardware, to have both my phone and computer connected in such a way that I can get audio output from either device to my headset simultaneously.

Do you tilt your head when approaching others? (reddthat.com)
 

You’re walking along a path and another person approaches from the opposite direction.

Do you tilt your head to signify which direction around them you intend to go? Is that head tilt understood by others?

Should we start pointing also?

Install hand blinkers?
