I also suggest putting ketchup in the soap pump dispenser. Really throws them for a loop.

Also from this fine media establishment:

• Warning: 73% of garden soil contains hidden drain chemicals affecting families for 18 months
• I tried this 2-ingredient summer mask at 53 and my dark spots faded 70% in 3 weeks (dermatologists explain why)
• Cold plunge warning: this 15-second exposure raises senior blood pressure by 40 mmHg

Also, for a writer named “John,” he seems to really like wearing women’s clothing

And I don’t know where he finds the time to get dressed considering he’s written 18 articles so far today some in just 14 minutes.

many book scanners use a wedge shape and two angled cameras to scan the pages when the book is held open at about a 5 degree angle

I’ve seen this kind of post a few times. If I survived a near-death experience, you bet I’d be glued to my phone telling everyone I was ok as soon as I could.

A birdwatching friend of mine has decided that if he ever discovers a new species, he’s naming it “seagull” regardless of where he finds it or what it looks like just to piss off all the ornithologists.

Very well executed, though not sure how I feel about the glass plate squishing the pages down like that.

Zoomers are prime draft age for WWIII and it’s a popular haircut among them.

I saw this clip on eBaumsworld when I was like 12 and was overjoyed that we had finally done it and all the climate change stuff I learned about wasn’t going to be a problem.

CS 1.6 is how I learned about port forwarding

McDonald’s specifically is famously a real estate company that happens to serve burgers on the side. The corporation owns all of the land that its franchises are sitting on, so they can park a restaurant on it and sell it for a profit after the land appreciates in value.

In addition to moving away from marketing directly to children, the reason a lot of fast foot restaurants are rebranding to look like grey cubes is to make the buildings more generic and therefore more valuable as commercial real estate.

We’ve all seen the local Mexican restaurant that definitely used to be a Pizza Hut. This is to avoid that.

MJ Should be way more bloodshot/glossy

The issue is not going up, it’s going over. If we only cared about the private sector getting people into space, that happened on a fully reusable vehicle twenty years ago.

The problem is getting things to stay in space. Not trying to Elon-stan here, but getting a rocket into orbit is many fold more difficult than just getting into space.

cosmetically tweaked

It would have to be super tweaked considering the phone you referenced has four cameras, and a notch style front camera.

My bet is that this is a 10 second photoshop job and the actual phone will look nothing like that.

I mean if you do a difference blend of two of the cameras, you get a perfectly black circle (minus some blending at the edges):

.

This means that the cameras are exact pixel-perfect copies of each other arranged in that order by photoshop. They don’t exist on any phone.

Not so much overheating as dropout. Batteries lose both energy capacity and power capacity over time. If you draw too much current from an older battery, its voltage will drop significantly and possibly prematurely shut down the phone.

Lowering peak current (by slowing down the phone), can prevent your phone from shutting off while it still has like 20% capacity left.

Considering Apple was doing battery replacements for like $60 (before bumping to $100), and this was a setting that could be turned off, I think the only real crime was enabling it by default and not properly informing users.

This is the kind of equipment you need to fix your problem.

A lighter does not have the precision to do it unless you are insanely lucky.

Some people don’t have access to decent tasting tap water and bottled water is expensive.

Tip: If your water tastes like chlorine, just fill a pitcher and put it in the fridge. Whatever chemicals they use will off gas overnight and it’ll taste great in the morning.

Or is it yet another example of social decay, that parents can’t even discipline/raise their kids well enough to allow them outside without leashes?

From what I’ve heard, the expectations of behavior for children in public spaces has gotten a lot more strict. People generally have very little patience for your kid’s antics. Also fewer mothers are dedicated homemakers, and when time and energy are tight, a leash might be a good bandaid.
