I’m currently using a trick on my Windows 11 work machine to get the old UI for file explorer by going through the control panel and going up a directory.

I’ll be so pissed the day they strip it out, because their new design language is ridiculously slow and terrible for the sake of “cleanliness.”

They asked random people on the Internet for dosage advice when there is professional advice available for free.

Why not use informed free advice instead of dubious free advice? How is that responsible?

This is a question for your pharmacist; they should be happy to help if you give them a call.

Not trying to be rude, but it’s a bad idea to take medical advice from people on the Internet.

Sign my guestbook!

Improved Gyro To Mouse behavior when connected over bluetooth.

Wish they added more details; this could be big or not much at all.

The best mellotron player in the world.

This whole album is fantastic. The Moody Blues really needed Pinder to curb their disco tendencies. They still had some bangers after he left, but all of their first seven albums are amazing.

Learning to write is how a person begins to organize their thoughts, be persuasive, and evaluate conflicting sources.

It’s maybe the most important thing someone can learn.

Balatro, of course.

Also doing another playthrough of Disco Elysium with a shivers/half-light build.

Jack White isn’t the best guitarist, but he might be my favorite.

There’s incredible primal power that comes from yelling at cops in a Massachusetts accent.

Those cops had every reason to fear the emasculating withering condescension that was directed towards them; it’s a wonder they survived.

Edit: they should have made the voice in Dune be switching to a Boston accent.

The first time I heard it was when a friend put it on in the car on the long drive to a campground; it always brings me back there.

Thanks! It really is an incredible album, and this song sets the tone perfectly.

Me too; it was hard to pick just one song from it.

She had some pipes.

A friend got me into Barony, and it has become an obsession.

One of the 20th century’s best lyracysts.

Dubai port operator DP World wound up with majority control of the startup, and pivoted its focus to cargo in early 2022, cutting half the staff at the time and dropping the Virgin moniker.

It makes sense that they’d drop the name Virgin after DP world took over.

Yeah, it’s not an inherently bad thing.

A big part of the problem is that people run to journals without understanding their purpose; publication is just the first step in peer review.

And then when people do a ctrl+f to search for a “gotcha,” they also eliminate all of the nuance and caveats that really explain the potential finding.

Supposedly it blocks out the in-between colors that muddy up perception.

If we use sound as an analogy, it would be like putting a high-pass filter on a busy signal so that you can better perceive the high end without the other sound waves changing the fundamental.

So, for my normal color vision it’s as though the saturation for red and green is reduced by about 75%. I can distinguish between very bright samples of red and green, but the more mellow tones just kind of wash out. Likewise for colors that contain red/green: for example, purple will wash out to blue unless its very bright.

With the glasses on, it’s as though someone put a mild pink/purple filter on and pumped up the saturation to be only -10% or so; its a lot easier to tell what color I’m looking at. Oranges in particular are extremely vivid.

I had them on when I was bringing groceries out to the car one time and I had a pot roast that I was loading into the trunk. I didn’t have the sunglasses on in the store, but I put them on while leaving. Normally meat looks brown to me, and it was genuinely shocking to see the bright red blood; I briefly wondered what was wrong with it before I remembered I was wearing the glasses.
