This is what I do. Stick a card between the back of your phone and the case and you can tap your phone like you would normally. No one knows the difference.

This is a good question. What will the new bar be once the current “old people” are gone?

Maybe the trope would be people who are too busy to fiddle with settings, like a super busy CEO or something.

I had backed it up to an external drive. If I remeber correctly, there may be an option to remotely connect to google cloud from within the kopia app, but you don’t need to create any VM. I don’t have access to Windows to test it now, but you can always download the all the explore it.

I’ve used Kopia before and liked it. It’s cross platform and allows you to browse back through folders on a timeline like macOS Time Machine.

Just a guess but I think not having any medical gear strapped to my face would feel more comfortable.

This is amazing. Did not realize it existed. Thank you for sharing

I have had good results with Tesseract. I had to export the PDF to individual jpegs, then batch OCR’d them with tesseract, then merged the individual pages back into a single PDF. If you don’t want to use command line and are okay with it not being open source, PDF24.org does a good job and does not charge.

ChatGPT chatbots? Let the chaos begin.

My mom has several cats and I tried to tell her this but she insists “this is just what cats do” and it is the natural order for cats to roam free outdoors. She thinks people who say cats belong indoors are out of touch with reality.

The only reason I got Signal to catch on with friends & family was that it made group chats between Android and iPhone just work for everybody. Although if they had already been using Whatsapp it may have been a harder sell. But Signal was easy to use to figure out.

You could use Marti as a nickname.

Bonus points if the dog is teeny. Mar-teeny

This image made me physically ill.

You are lucky. My mom used the same dishes we used ourselves for the cat food and would rinse them off in the sink with a sponge. And she used a different dish every time so no bowl or plate in the house was safe. Made me feel icky eating dinner out of a cat food bowl but she thought I was strange for caring.

We had an “automobile hairdryer.” On school mornings after I took a shower and was being driven to school, I would lean my head up towards the dashboard and have the A/C blowing full blast to finish drying my hair. I would do this every morning in elementary school. Probably not very safe now that I think back on it.

It’s not about the children.

I love this

I’ve had this happen with iCloud. Deleted stuff from the server and then it keeps coming back. There was a problem device not getting the memo to delete and kept re-uploading the data. I had to sign out of my iCloud account and sign back in my devices to fix it.

Would you still need to boil this before drinking?

What is mental abuse? Is it another name for emotional abuse or something distinct?

Yes and it sucks when you live below loud neighbors that are constantly making noise, stomping, and yelling at each other and you can’t escape because you’re in your own home.
