For me, to 'get shit done' means to enter a state of flow and focus. For that I put on noise cancelling headphones and put this Chillhopmusic playlist on shuffle.

(It's not my playlist, just a public one that someone has created and shared.)

What does a British person's home made curry taste like? I'm curious.

Ditto for London. I assume most local council recycling facilities accept small electrical waste.

Exactly. The fact that "disposable" vapes even exist is mind-boggling. And now they account for more than half of the electrical waste going to landfill. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Why do they even exist? Can't they be banned?

It's like buying a USB battery pack to recharge your phone - and then chucking it out after it's run out.

I was envisioning something more like this.

Instructions unclear

For the same reason big hair can make someone look crazy. They make you look unkempt.

There's more than one Musk!? 😱

Sadly Lidl trollies in the UK doesn't. At least not at my local.

Their trollies used to have plastic hooks fitted to the front of the trolly, but they've been removed for some reason 😪

They could be upgrading hosting infrastructure - sometimes this requires servers to be shut down or restarted. They might also be applying database changes such as migrating data from one server to another, or updating the structure of the database to improve performance or support new features.

Honestly, there are quite a number of reasons for planned downtime.

Unplanned downtime is a different story. Usually that's because something unexpected went wrong and there will be engineers trying to get things back up and running ASAP.

Thanks! I'll try this next time when I get one of these popups.

Interesting 🤔 "intercept" as in to rip them?

And suppose a friend asked me how you do that. What should I tell them?

This sounds like the Netflix model.

Yo ho, yo ho!

Hello 👋🏻 fellow AdGuard user here. This extension never gets much mention – people seem to prefer AdBlock and uBlock Origin for whatever reason – but I'm very happy with AdGuard and have used it for years now.

I don't have any issues reading articles online. I wonder if we're subscribed to different filter lists.

I believe there's a filter called "anti-adblocker" or something – I would suggest you enable that if you don't already have it enabled. My understanding is that it'll block scripts that check if you have an adblocker – resulting in fewer of those "please disable your adblocker" banners.

Is this really "world news"? 😕

I mean, what's new? We've known for years that companies are collecting our personal data online.

One really practical way to learn some new recipes is to use a recipe box service like HelloFresh or Gousto.

They deliver a box with all the required ingredients and easy to follow recipe cards.

For anything that you make & enjoy, you can keep the recipe card and cook it again using store bought ingredients.

These recipe boxes regularly have deals and promotions (e.g. 60% off, refer a friend, etc.) so it doesn't have to be too expensive.

Or if you don't want to order one at all, it's worth knowing that HelloFresh make all their recipes available online for free. So you can download and print off any that you like the sound of, without ever even ordering one of their boxes.

looking forward to finding a proper solution

To the contrary, I think you have a solution in search of a problem.

Your solution is smart contracts, and you're asking us if we agree that your cloud storage example would be a good use case for that solution.

Yep 🤦🏻‍♂️

This isn't even about AI. Regular search engines will also provide results reflecting the thing you asked for.

Does anybody else find Tom Scott annoying?

I love channels that deep-dive into the details of things, etc. But I've always found Tom to be so smug and patronising.

Is it just me?
