i would imagine its possible to get a feel of what 30 seconds is without having to count a certain series of numbers. being shocked would probably force you to figure it out a lot quicker

what if he is just switching because there is more in the other bowl?

its the future in the same way that 'smart' watches were the future

i have something like 600+ articles to read in pocket since I started using it 8 years ago. I've tried to go through and delete some of them a few times but i never make a dent since i do sort of want to read most of them.

the only thing that helped the last few years was to uninstall the browser extension. it means i have to log in to the website if I want to add something and I only go through all that hassle if i 'really' want to read it later

im thinking i might set up wallabag soon and jailbreak my kindle because I think I might have a better chance of reading them there

blue light from screens is a much bigger problem and its mostly been proven at this stage that it can affect your sleeping patterns

im not sure you can have flip + modern in a phone. ive never seen it anyway

if the idea of having a flip phone is so that you will be less distracted then maybe a flip case might help to do something similar. preferably one that has really loud velcro so that people around you will get pissed if you keeping opening it every 2nd minute to look at facecheck

the reason i do it is to make it easier to scroll. if im reading on a large desktop screen, especially if its in portrait mode, scrolling fast can make all the text seem like a blur. so instead of having to scroll slow to keep position its quicker to highlight something and then scroll until its at the top

i should really just be hitting the spacebar but you know, old habits

something like workflowy or coggle would work much better for this type of thing

in most cases, the only reason your clothes get smelly is if you get smelly, so cleaning yourself more often might help. you dont have to shower every day, but cleaning the key areas does help and can easily be done just using the sink and warm water.

even socks will last a lot longer if you just quickly wash your feet every morning or twice a day if you have the time

would you settle for a drip dry shelf over the sink? it solves the dry and put them away part and just leaves the washing part which can be made a lot easier by doing the following:

- before you leave anything in the sink, quickly rinse it if there is anything on it that will go hard

- washing with gloves on is easier since you can have the water boiling hot which means in turn does most of the work

- or install a double sink. leave things soak in 1 sink so most stuff will just fall off, then in most cases all you have left to do is rinse it

- if there is still some gunk left on them then one of those jet taps would help

- if you need to retrieve things often

- if you need more than one box. will you still have a single box 10 years from now or will it be 2? good luck trying to retrieve something in 20 years when you have even more boxes

- it only takes 1 fire or flood to destroy all of your documents. once they are digital you can easily make copies and store them in a few different locations

tbh making digital copies isnt that complicated compared to throwing something in a box. i just scan everything into a year/month folder and do as you do... worry about finding them later. spending time tagging or naming stuff after theyve been digitised is optional.

they might be talking about antibiotics in the meat, which wasnt a problem until recently

there could be other things at play like the fact that you have more time on your hands when you are a teenager compared to later in life when you have to work. and if you are working more and skimping on sleep then not all of the things you read will get into your long term memory.

less distractions as well depending on when you were a teenager

definitely agree, although i would say that podcasts are a lesser evil that youtube videos or articles.

- some channels or website tend to favour quantity over quality since they can get more ad revenue that way

- podcasts are generally more professional. not like youtube where its common to find 10 minutes of some person rambling to make a point that should have only taken 2

- you can fit in podcasts/audiobooks while you do other things, driving, doing chores etc.

yea, same feeling when i found that channel first. ive warmed up to it a bit more since. like most things, i just keep in mind that what they are saying is just their opinion and not gospel.

time spent watching entrepreneur videos is time you could have spent being an entrepreneur. its time you can never get back.

if you have to watch something then just limit yourself to watching this one until you get the idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOksW_NabEk

its quite simple. the boot kicks the ball, the balloon carries it up to the ferris wheel, the ball drops onto some vertical pully system and raises the red thingy, which then tells the browser that you are not a robot

the new "topics" feature is basically just tags as far as i can tell.

you can use the "user:" search operator + the name of the topic to filter your repos and then just bookmark the searches that youll be using often. its better than nothing for now

sure native apps would be great, but this guy seems to be doing this in his free time. i doubt he has time to learn and make native apps on all three os's

some keyboards make clicky sounds ;)

ive been trying keypirinha since a few weeks ago. its not bad. its nice improvement over launchy and is being developed unlike launchy which hasnt been touched in years. having to change the settings from a text file in keypirinha is bit of a pain though.

anyway, from what i can tell, cerebro is able to show you a lot more things and also has plugins. keypirinha just shows basic things like files and apps i think

tbh, ive been hoping that a paid launcher for windows would come along at some stage because all the current ones only half fit my needs and are probably going to stay that way for a while since they only developed in someones free time

it worked for everything i was using it with. but same problem as the OP mentioned, i dont always have my keys on me so it just became annoying after a while having to the thing first

protonmail is a whole lot easier to use now that you only need 1 password instead of 2

for anyone that doesnt know, there is already an extension called "dark reader" that makes every page dark:

theres really no need to make a separate extension for every website, unless you are trying to make a statement
