The UK section of my local supermarket is taking the piss
  • Ah, I was thinking of canned mac n cheese which I tried once and the several times I tried different canned soups containing cheese. It didn't taste like cheese and it wasn't tolerable for me. That said I have enjoyed canned queso dip.

  • Canned anything with cheese tastes revolting from my experience.

    Snapchat is going to put ads next to messages from your friends
  • Maybe. I've only known Snapchat used for sending pictures of one's privates, which is quite direct now that I think about it.

  • Has XLOOKUP made its way into the non-subscription version? I've found it a lot easier and flexible to use than VLOOKUP.

    Michael Moore on how Harris-Walz can defeat Trump: ‘Do weird and cringe until the debate, then nail him’
  • How is he comparable to Neil? I've been listening to Michael Moore's podcast off and on since 2020 and he's only come across as humble and empathetic to me which is not how I'd characterize Neil.

    Metroid Prime 4: Beyond – Announcement Trailer
  • Switch remaster has a motion controls option. I quite like it. Is that comparable to how it played on the Wii?

    iOS 18 (and AI) will give Siri much more control over your apps
  • I use it on a Homepod Mini to toggle different lights and a fan. In my previous apartment I used it to control a window AC. Sometimes I tell it to pause my AppleTV if I can't find the remote quick enough. I use it with FindMy when I lose my keys or bag or whatever else (I have a lot of AirTags). Other than controlling devices I mostly use it for weather reports and timers.

    What is it about the text messages and emails sent by older people that make me feel like I'm having a stroke?
  • From my experience, touch typing and using all fingers (home row technique I think it's called) is less common among boomers, especially men. Even in professional settings I've seen men peck at their keyboards with just their pointer fingers. The slowness of this technique might explain the use of abbreviations at the desktop?

    📄 rule
  • fun fact: the length to width ratio of ISO 216, √2:1, is the same ratio as the tritone in an equal tempered 12-tone musical scale. If you fold A4 paper in half, you get a piece of paper with the same length to width ratio as before; analogously, if you invert a tritone, you get another tritone.

    Apple Patent Hints At Foldable iPhone With Self-healing Screen
  • My partner has been using a Samsung Fold for two years, the one that folds open into a small tablet. It looked nice at first but it hasn’t held up well. There’s this film on the screen that you’re not supposed to remove and it’s deteriorating fast. There are these little patches on the screen that look sort of like bubbles. Plus even from the start you could see the crease in the middle of the screen.

    Is it possible to create a shortcut that could have 2 or more apps open side by side together in stage manager? E.g., have Ivory, Discord, and Messages open together and specify that Discord takes the right half of the screen and Ivory and Messages split the left half.
