There is at least graceful degradation:

When the battery dies, the glasses continue to function as a traditional pair of single-vision specs, ensuring the wearer is never left in the dark or have safety compromised such as when driving or operating machinery.

There’s nothing about a subscription in here, and there’s no need for an internet connection. Sensors just watch how your eyes are trying to focus and adjust the metal lens that’s sandwiched between the glass parts.

• Everyone * should be abandoning twitter. Well, I guess the nazis can stay, it makes it easier to keep an eye on them.

Tequila.

I don’t like singing in public.

This has been on my list of things to try for a while, but I’m currently in “if-it-aint-broke-dont-fix-it” mode.

• I only push to master
• I only deploy to prod on Fridays
• I am not available on the weekends

I have one of these. It’s usb 3.0 only which it sounds like is what you have anyway. It’s not part of my NAS, I just use it when I need to quickly look for something on an old drive, but it’s been pretty reliable for me for the last few years and was cheap, so I have no complaints.

Ah my mistake. As I’m sure you’ve found you can certainly get USB-SATA adapters. They’ll be $15-20 each, so you’d realistically be better off getting 2 2-drive enclosures since that would be about the same price but much cleaner. I’ve used Sabrent for this for a while and they’re fine. There are occasional usb disconnects so it’s not good for anything mission critical. And never do anything port-powered when connecting drives over usb, always use parts that get their own wall power.

Buy a cheap LSI card on ebay, they can usually be had for around $15-20. Make sure it’s either in HBA or IT mode, or that there’s a way to put it into that mode. If it’s in HBA/IT mode, you can then just use it like more SATA ports. Buy a pack of LSI-SATA cables (there are two kinds, get the kind that includes the SATA power connector). Then you can put the card inside your computer and the drives anywhere that the cables will reach.

Any Disney character tier list that doesn’t have every Bluey character at S+ or better is just insane.

It’s been a while, but I think people were still able to commit suicide if they just couldn’t cope with the prospect of utopia. And I think stuff like boxing was OK. Just not torturing, beating or killing people you didn’t like.

I’ll take the hyper-intelligent, godlike alien from Rejoice, A Knife to the Heart who makes violence impossible and gives everyone free food.

No, live, laugh, love smells like pumpkin spice. This photo smells like patchouli and weed.

If Pearl Jam couldn’t fix it in the 90s and Taylor swift couldn’t fix it in the 2020s that tells you just how much money is behind them.

Octarine. Life is magical.

Yep. Encouraging a whole new generation of casual artists, makers and readers can only be seen as a great thing. I would just add that we all need to remember how to slow down, and understand that’s good and necessary to do so every so often.

I think the problem is that we’ve forgotten how to just do nothing and be content with it (or even a bit bored with it). While I think unplugging is good, this just seems like replacing one kind of attention addiction with another.

Multiple countries have had the ability to put tons of weapons in space for a half century (and we know there are/were a few up there), so I don’t agree with you here - once we abandon our treaties, one country putting arms in space will inevitably lead to all countries putting arms in space “for defense”.

Was about to say, Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson are definitely social justice bards. Probably the Beastie Boys too, but that just feels super weird for some reason.
