I’m sure it does nothing, but every time DPD/other fucks up a delivery by failing to even ring the bell and says “we missed you”, I call up their customer service and waste their time complaining about the small amount of time allowed per package delivery.

I ask for drivers to be allowed more time. It’s not entirely their fault (but some seemingly have no situational awareness).

Does this normally work? They removed support for location based reminders over a year ago, so that might be why it’s struggling so much. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/06/the-google-assistant-is-losing-location-reminders-one-of-its-best-features/

Though last time I tried assistant responded “I’m sorry I can’t set location based reminders anymore”. Either they’ve removed that warning, or this image is over a year old…

In this context (IIRC) smart means “if this zip contains a single folder with contents, directly extract that folder, but if the zip contains files and/or folders, extract all that to a new folder named the same as the zip file”.

Some people zip folders while some people zip the files in a folder. Smart extraction just handles both automatically.

While I’d like to think the wealthiest would do something that would benefit everyone, they can just build walls, or move to higher ground.

Your take on climate change makes me more worried. Sure, I will probably be fine, but how many innocent people around the world will die until we’ve done enough to see the climate improving?

How horrible is the world going to be to inhabit if the Gulf Stream collapses? Or other major climate disruptions occur?

I don’t doubt the human race will survive, but why do we have to experience the pain before committing to fixing the problem?

Oh yeah I’d prefer metric, but I was just being consistent with the thread, as the actual units are somewhat beside my point.

Now to find why I didn’t get a notification for this reply…

Just a guess, but maybe they were deleted because of the Reddit info, which is shitty exploiting of someone’s post by a company.

Cubic feet would be better, especially as taller vehicles are more dangerous to pedestrians.

It shouldn’t be checking anything during a ride. If it needs to be turned on at the start of the ride, it should do all the checks and give a green light or a red light (or some other clear indicator) before they start riding.

That way, the only way it doesn’t go off if someone wears it while ignoring the “system is not active for safety” warning.

Shouldn’t be a subscription in the first place, but hey, this is just a weird hypothetical.

This complexity is the problem. Thanks to insufficient funding for education, many people find it difficult to understand to understand complex problems and their full context, so they want simple “solutions” that are black and white, instead of the grey of reality.

Will ears be provided if we don’t have our own?

I’d like him to do more, but maybe he’s done everything interesting enough to make it onto his channel. I’d rather he stop than start making lower quality (in terms of topics) videos.

Maybe he’s just embodying the quote: “you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain”.

Okay so in reality you don’t complete the entire frame before starting anything else. It may be 90% complete after initial sorting and flipping of pieces, so there are gaps in the border through which you can move finished portions.

Additionally, I would typically keep most of the unsorted pieces outside the frame and then build portions inside the frame.

The “normal” way of starting a puzzle is to start with the edges. You can find the edge pieces easier due to the flat side, which makes it a good place to start when you have many pieces.

You have to spread all the pieces out when you get them out of the box, so it makes sense to separate out the edge pieces while you’re spreading and flipping pieces.

Cultists obsessed with their leader’s face?

When I had Plex play trailers, it was only ever before movies, with trailers for movies. Seeing it every time you watch an episode of a show is too much.

It already does this. I frequently get ads for other shows when starting a show on Prime video. I can barely accept the existing ads.

Depressing evidence of a failing education system.

Same here. While mine is connected, I have no reason to use it with newer consoles in the same cabinet.
