I am getting towards the end of a ds9 rewatch (one episode before bed most nights) and I’m getting so happy to get to a voyager rewatch! It’s months away but still. (Not that I don’t like ds9, particularly the latter half.)
Every morning I take the dog outside for her morning walk, start the coffee, make the bed, and get her fed and settled. Then I’m at my desk and I do the Wordle, NYT mini crossword and connections puzzles (and send them to the family group chat). Then I play one game of online chess, losing very badly and analyzing my mistakes afterward. Now that I’m totally awake and having my coffee, I spend time with my spiritual routine, then start answering my emails around 9 (I’m a web developer and work from home).
I used ChatGPT this morning to create a Firefox extension for my favorite website (to allow me to speed up audio playback as desired.) just a few minutes’ back-and-forth and it works perfectly. If you’ve got a favorite site with a UI that you r always wanted slightly tweaked, you could try making a browser extension to do that!
I came here to post this and I wouldn’t have clogged up the thread with this useless comment except for your username. I salute you
I have it on good authority it was Dancing in the dark by Springsteen
There’s like… no downside: all upside.
Edit: I exaggerated, of course. Below this are some downsides that individuals have experienced. But personally, my experience using Firefox on desktop for Mac has been all upside. If everybody who can just tries it out, you might be surprised at how friction-free the change is.
Who else assumed this was a technology connections video before reading the channel name?
“Assume a spherical bird in a frictionless vacuum”
Is it just me or does the species name sound more like a microscopic animal? That’s what I’ve always thought.
American here: when I read that in my own accent I didn’t get it, so I backed up and read the punchline in an English accent and I laughed. Funny how that works
Rod sterling. (For transparency, I clicked on this thread to reply with this answer and in doing so I did see that everyone has answered ‘Serling’ and thus suspect that I’m just remembering a more common, well-known word. But I being 36 on know his name in the retrospective and apparently misread it.)
Night! Bird!
I mean, I did. I never thought I would, because I use dev tools all the time and I was worried it would be a problem, but it wasn’t. I don’t miss it. Firefox is fine!
People: If you’re trying to decide whether to switch, just do it! It’s good for the internet and it didn’t even take that long to import my bookmarks, install all the same extensions, and increase the tiny tiny font size of tab names. Like, maybe twenty minutes all tallied up. Worth it!
I’m sorry you called me a WHAT
She’s competitively compensated for the quality of the work product she delivers!
The new conversation awareness feature with the AirPods has made me aware of how often I talk to my dog and myself. So my audio gets muted even though there’s little chance of either one of us responding and requiring the audio volume to be lowered. Looking forward to exploring other new stuff!
Avelon is amazing. Feels like Apollo mostly. My only complaints are piddly stuff.
Mommy said, no exceptions! 😂
Little app only for the Apple Watch called Nomi that I like. Doesn’t get updated anymore but still works. It’s a couple bucks, and I’ve enjoyed it for years
