What surprises me is that someone would consider cracking the big end of the egg. And have it sitting upside down in the egg cup?

Ludicrous! Absolutely ludicrous! :)

Just want to say that I appreciate you giving it a good go!

I feel a bit of guilt reading it though. I followed your app from when you first announced it on hn. I liked the idea and still think it's great, I am in theory the target demographic of wanting to learn languages as a couple, and yet it didn't stick.

For what it's worth none of the other language apps stick either.

Maybe it's hard to compete with the heroin-like hyper-optimised attention-drain apps that left all sense of ethic and morals long behind :/

Look, we’re all here instead of studying our Anki decks, so… you got that “dopamine fix needed” problem nailed.

Thanks for trying and following it. Spent the morning wondering if that's a chance for it and I'm not sure. Just requires Herculean habit building which necessitates dopamine. Anki works because it has 100% of the coverage of people who don't need dopamine.

Oof, you are bringing out the big philosophical question there. Many people have wondered whether we are running in a simulation or not. So far inconclusive and not answerable unfortunately.

God forbid someone would use their own two legs to walk and eat that burrito at the restaurant /s

The extend to which some people get food delivered is absurd. I'm sure there exceptions and reasons and everything, but seriously.

I think it's a symptom of our work culture and lifestyle. When people are spending anywhere between 1-2 hours a day in a car going to a job that sucks the life out of them, I'm not surprised they don't have the energy to get food for themselves.

Convenience services thrive in America because it's the only way the working class can claw back a teensy bit of time and energy. We could have had hybrid or even remote work, but that dream is dead. Traffic sucks, outside is loud and stinky, and you're in the office minimum 9 hours a day, 5 days a week. Minimum. I actually don't know anyone who works that little.

> extend to which some people get food delivered is absurd

More than getting uppity online about others' personal dining choices?

It’s a vicious cycle. I’m not a big delivery fan myself but you go into some small casual restaurants now and everyone else in there is a delivery driver.

Yep, if you think you're too busy to go out to get food yourself, then you've definitely been breathing in your own farts for too long.

Hah, If you ask my partner, I've been looking at the same screen for years and years

I think the t-shirt with the wolf howling at the moon is a bit of a stereotype. If you have watched the Simpsons, something the comic book store owner would wear.

Overweight, unkempt, awkward around women, and guaranteed zero attention from women.

Thanks! I expected that, but never associated it with the idea of a howling wolf.

I agree and disagree with you. These studies should be done with guaranteed payments for life. Otherwise it is just not representative.

I do believe that people would still work though. Personally I would like to do a useful job with real benefit to society, but the low pay makes it not feasible. I would still want to work part time at least instead of not at all.

Golden Visas on sale now...

Holy shit this escalates completely. I had no idea any of this was going.

Is sr.ht tainted now or still a decent place to host code? I can't quite tell.

He's a bit unhinged, but for what it's worth every interaction I've had with him has been positive.

It's a defamation campaign done by 4chan bigots. See my sibling comment.

Thanks for mentioning it! Makes me glad to live a life out of the spotlight and to be generally ignorant of stuff like this going on. Would not want to be targeted like that :/

> Is sr.ht tainted now

I hate that this is now a thing you can ask unsarcastically.

Just use the tool you like the best man, screw what other people think. Yes, there's people who will go "you're bad because your use a tool that's made by a guy who said something wrong about Stallman" (or whatever he did exactly again). These people are not worth your attention.

My bad, I shouldn't have said tainted. Trustworthy is what I had in mind.

I moved my private repos to sr.ht ages ago because it was the open source, free software, ethical, longevitable approach. And stepping away from the mega corporations and everything going on with those.

I was wondering whether this was still the case.

The setting does not persist, not even within the same session.

Not on web mobile frontend

Interesting! I did not realise this. Just checked and can't see it in that case either.

So, yeah, that's pretty bad.

Is there a setting to disable it globally or has every video to be switched?

Often times there is no setting to disable this

In my experience the linux way is finding things that don't work and, after not being able to fix them, deciding that you don't need really them after all.

Personally I focused on reducing the boot time when the suspend never worked properly.
