They have this Time Machine so they say.


A backup tool. These exists since forever. And are different from Recall features.


that's not what they meant. a recent ios update restored pictures that were deleted ages ago.


HL2 RTX also has newer textures and other assets


I thought I uninstalled my reddit app


My superstitions are more accurate than your superstitions


org-mode is a brilliant format. The limitation is that you would have to use Emacs or something which support .org files.

What else besides EMACS supports .org files?

Form the alternatives I've seen so far it looks best. But EMACS? (I'm on Linux, but never liked EMACS or Vi(m)).

The second best looking alternative seems AsciiDoc. It has some more tooling as I see it.

But really like the .org syntax best so far. So any recommendations for tooling?


AsciiDoc still has no footnotes, but only endnotes. Therefore not really useful for writing non-fiction books. As org-mode files are only text files, you can use any editor you like. If you want all the goodies (agenda, TODOs etc), you have to use Emacs, yes.

Does Markdown have footnotes or endnotes? No?

People are still misusing it for everything! Especially for technical writing, which is just nuts.


It's probably not logical. They are hinting at increased sweating.


Ahh, no problem. I always shower after gym and I wash my feet, including between my toes.

On that note, a surprising number of humans do not wash inside their belly buttons, so life optimization tip number 5. Wash your belly button.


That would be great. I have been eyeing iTablet for long now.

If I could flash android onto it, I would buy it right away


The reason could because of how these payments apps evolved.

People already had cheap android phones in their hand. After the 4g boom, many got their first smartphone.

UPI related playment apps started with QR code scanning, just like in China.

There is no extra cost to the vendor. All they need is a sticker with their QR, which customers can scan. Later, they came up with a (bluetooth) speaker which can announce payments. It doesn't even need a connected smartphone.

If they used cards, they need to manufacture it and the readers. Ship them to their home addresses (which is complicated and lossy), train them about card usage.

For many vendors who accepted UPI payments, it was their first time accepting something other than cash as payments.


I wonder if you really mean that or if you haven't used gpt4 or bing chat enough


I doubt if that's the norm.

It's their choice, perhaps they enjoy raising children.
