Oh right. In that case, click on the disambiguation link.

In this context: cheese.
If you were a roofer and you built a roof and it was two feet off, you’d still be in prison
Unless it was the prison roof that you built.
Maybe like the way smaller and smaller circles (2d harmonics) make images in this video.
17·3 days agoSomeone recently posted this, or a similar picture, and I was about to ask the same question until they mentioned that they’d translated it to English for posting.
Teletubbies do say things such as “eh oh!”, or “Lala ball”. I don’t know if that was subtitled, but The Clangers definitely was.
This one turns itself into the Firefox logo at about 2:35, before starting to snore.
2·7 days agoI used those to call back to the UK when I moved to the US, back around 2005.
When you entered the number you wanted to call, it would do a VOIP connection from the line you were on to that company to a line in the destination county. So it was an Internet call for the international part (which is how they did it cheaply).
I realized that because the cards I bought were from a company with “VOIP” in the name!
I had one of those Radio Shack tone dialler boxes so that I could pre-program the free US number and the card id number.
My son’s homework is frequently in metric (a US school district). Many drinks (wine and sodas) and medicine doses are too. The US uses metric just as the UK still uses miles and pints.
8·12 days agoThe last episode ended with them all putting on red jackets, so I don’t think there’s going to be more than episode after that.
I’m surprised that it worked, because Maps is pretty good at identifying movement profiles. It can distinguish motorcycles from cars, and I’ve had it identify a cable car ride.
Back when location history was stored on the Google servers, a Takeout export would include probabilities for several forms of transport for each track.
“do you really think that there are that many cows in the world?”
Well, not now, there aren’t.
One day you’ll pick up your son for the last time and neither of you will realize it.
I’m fact, he’ll want you to one more time and you’ll put your back out trying. Then you’ll both know.
“Empathy” is the name of his clothing.
Oh. Well, I haven’t seen any changes like that. Yet. Still time, I guess.
And also seriously, I didn’t get any eye color change. I also had lens replacements a few years ago, but that didn’t involve a vitrectomy, so I still had floaters at that point.
When I went to a new opthalmologist recently, that asked about my eye health history. It took about 45 minutes!
I had a detached retina which involved (spoiler for those that don’t like to read about eyes)
Tap for spoiler
Having the fluid removed and replace with gas. My eye was out of action for months, going through all the stages of gradually refilling itself. I had to stay mostly lying down for a week. For a while I had an effect like looking over the surface of water. Later, a big bubble that distorted vision.
Oh also, I was forbidden to go to high altitude because the pressure change could cause damage.
But after all that, just a few occasional floaters. My other eye still had lots of “tethered” floaters that seem to still be attached like seaweed strands.
So it can be done but you would go through a lot to get there.
I’ve heard that people do get that done just for the floater problem.
2·21 days agoI should add that I do use it for backups, it’s a great program, but I’ve only ever used it for one-way scheduled syncs.
I’ve sometimes found that it just stops syncing on one phone. And I did turn off battery management.
I need something that’s reliable.
I use resilio, but recently it used 20% battery in 6 hours overnight, when nothing needed syncing.
I found that the resilio mobile app would use up a lot of battery at night (sometimes about 10% an hour).
Syncthing was better for that, but would sometimes just stop updating on a phone. I would check and it would have not been syncing for weeks and be signed out of the web UI.
