Starting learning Rust and The Book is great.

To play devils advocate, is this not just an exercise to remove stale accounts? It looks like everyone who received the email does not have a payment method on their account so it seems more like "If you don't add a payment method to your account we'll be closing it?"

No?

This site is a life saver for my partner. She cannot handle any sort of animal cruelty on screen. Before I discovered DtDD, whenever we'd sit down to watch a film together and an animal appeared on screen she'd instantly exclaim "Nope, turn it off". Nowadays, as soon as an animal appears on screen, I'm instantly on DtDD before she can say anything! Most of the time it's fine but sometimes we have to turn it off.

I have noticed this too. The grass usually turns somewhat yellow but this year has been next level.

I literally looked at the domain and exclaimed out loud "container news dot com?!?!?!"

Tried it once, never again!

I realised this today too. I imagine pretty much all of us are the same!

Blade (Laravel), Tailwind and, unless I need complex state management, jQuery.

"Ewwww you mean the exchange of bodily fluids!"

What a film!

I do not appreciate this work of art being compared to Zucks wet dream tho!

Commenting to say that I relate to this so much and finally resigned after 9 years, a few months ago. 4 weeks left to go on my 6 month notice period and I couldn't be happier! When I resigned I felt like such a huge weight had been lifted. I was stuck, lost and like I was worthless. Nearly all the points in this article ring true for me.

To lose weight, you just need to finish the day in a calorie deficit. Thats it. 3 simple starting actions;

- Cut back on soda/sugary drinks

- 10 minutes of exercise a day, even if just walking

- Get into a good sleep routine

Once you're at the weight you're happy with you'll need to keep it off. This is when you really need to think about your lifestyle choices. Ideally you'll stick with the above 3 tips even after you hit your target weight.

Damn, if I hear another over emphasised adjective...

Off topic: How do you get rid of/prevent the focus border style on inputs that appears to be present in all framework styles?

Not sure if this helps but I feel that there is nothing I can do about it so I just don't think about it. Being busy with work, social etc obviously makes that easier.

Not sure if that was a direct reply to my comment or advice for everyone but turning is fine for me, its just going straight/fast that scares me!

I actually find toe edge is easier now. I've hit my head a couple of times, usually when falling off the button lift!

I'm 36 in 4 months and started snowboarding in 2019 and have been every year since. I always wanted to try it and finally got the chance when my brother did it for his stag (Borovets, Bulgaria). It was very tough to start with but once you have a few lessons and get the basics it is so much easier. My biggest issue is going straight, or fast if you will! Lessons lessons lessons would be my one big of advice to anyone struggling.

Got 279 across 2 words with 2 letters remaining... Fun game!

Was it paid cash or in ETH?

I don't think I watch anything that even has TV ads anymore. Live sports probably are the only thing.

Netflix

Plex

Prime

Disney Plus

YouTube (I guess they have ads but not the same)

Mobile game ads on the other hand... Urgh.

Maybe from an investment point of view but the product is still solid.

This is probably the most interesting PDF I've ever read. As a Peloton member, I never really gave much thought into how the business side of things ran - I just really enjoy the product.

Seeing $PTON so low surprised me as I haven't really been following the news much. I just bought some shares.

TLDR: I love my Bike+ as does my partner. It's well worth the monthly fee (and this document seems to imply that its too cheap!). Is the bike itself worth £2250? Probably not in theory but it is to me.

Further elaboration: The tech is interesting. It's very polished but there is SO much room for additional reporting, functionality etc. I have actually played abit with the unofficial API and theres lots of data available.

£40/month is worth it. The quality of the classes is impeccable. It's like they've been produced with TV budgets! This price does also include the digital membership which has yoga, boxing and loads of other type of workouts.

The bike (Bike+) is expensive but it's a solid piece of kit and does come with a 24 inch (Android) tablet.

Edit: Forgot to say, the £40/month is per bike, not per member. So you can have your entire family using the bike for the £40/month.

A relative did this math the.. not so legal way... and the most he "won" on about 50k cards was £100.

Slightly OT:

> Run Your Home on a Raspberry Pi

If you can get hold of one!

I've been looking for a Pi4 for ages to use with PiHole but sold out everywhere, some have back orders for 2023 O_O

Anyone got any recommendations of other devices that work well with PiHole? I have a Mac Mini acting as a home server but from what I've read, PiHole does not run great on it via Docker...

Off topic: Since when did Twitter force logging in to view the site?

Just heard of Wordle due to this thread. I am not sure if it exists outside of the UK (it must do!) but the mechanics of this game are pretty much the same as the Mastermind board game[0]. Instead of coloured pegs, its 5 letter words. Very cool.
