TIL that "Nature Boy" is quoted in the Num Num Cat Tiktok collaboration.

Looking forward to the James Hoffmann video covering this.

> even basic things like moving windows between spaces

I don't really use spaces but I've got "Displays have seperate spaces" turned on and Rectangle Pro has "Next Display" and "Previous Display" which moves the foreground app to, unsurprisingly, the next and previous display (which seems to be a space).

Are you after something like "move this window to space Y" rather than just "next space"?


> Vibrant? It's made of white concrete.

"vibrant" could apply to the activity, not the physical structure. There's 4 other people in the back of the photo - if you assumed it was a tiny slice of the park, you could say it was vibrant.

(to me it doesn't look particularly vibrant re: activity but this is just one small corner and I will allow the ML some leeway in its floridity.)


The paragraph said it is the heart of the park, not a "tiny slice."

If you're going to praise the paragraph, at least choose a word that's defensible. Like ok, it got "the" right.

Surprising that you would defend that particular word. Far from being vibrant, the place looks dead, frankly. You can see it in the bored faces of the three people staring off in random directions with disinterested stances. Even the guy who's walking looks like he's just shuffling along.

"I can see how, if you look at it in just the right light, you might think there is a little blue in there."

Nah. Not good enough.


+1 for the ER20s. I've got some of the early Loops (no inserts or anything fancy) which are decent enough (and can be used for sleeping in an emergency.) Also got some of the early Flare Audio titaniums which do a decent job.

(For sleeping I buy the Leight Laser Lite in bulk because anything with a stiff/solid stem tends to be uncomfortable. They also work reasonably well in gig scenarios.)


> What’s the point of training to run faster?

Before my knee decided it wanted no part of my existence, my goal was to have all my "distance"[1] times within 200% of the world record. Seemed doable with some work (had some within, some just outside, others a way off.)

[1] 800m to 100k


> The other good, light, quick, and easy-to-use alternative is Pixelmator Pro

Unless you want, e.g., a destructive crop[0] which they have been not adding for at least 4 years and counting. Since my graphic work generally involves cropping, that kinda rules out Pixelmator Pro for me and forces me back into the Adobe Tax Hole.

[0] There are undoubtedly many other deficiencies but this one really irks me.


> Unless you want, e.g., a destructive crop

Isn't this achieved by enabling the "Delete cropped pixels" option?

From Pixelmator help:

> Select "Delete cropped pixels" to permanently delete the cropped areas of an image or deselect it to crop the image nondestructively and hide the cropped areas of an image instead.

Bloody hell, completely missed that option. Yes, that does what I need! Thanks!

What’s your work flow for needing to have a destructive crop?

One of the great features of Bartender is that it can unhide icons when they change or match a particular state. Handy for, e.g., hiding the battery until you're down to 30% or hiding your VPN icon whilst you're not connected.

(let's hope some other apps pick up these features if Bartender turns out to have gone down a dark path)


> As if being a landlord wasn’t easy enough just milking people they needed even more money by colluding?

"It's not enough for them to make a lot of money, they need to make ALL the money" (James Stephanie Sterling pretty much whenever a triple-A game company does something shady)


We just had a Bloomsburg story earlier showing how fast food companies are using apps and gathering data to make sure they don't "leave money on the table" by using differential pricing.

I don't have so much of a problem there. I can solve this by simply not eating fast food.

The problem is that I can't opt out of housing since these same assholes bought all of it up.


Differential pricing means different people get charged different amounts for the same things. It’s easy to wonder if this already happens on Amazon.

Like air travel and hotel rooms. Even market based approaches like eBay have different prices for the same things. I'm not for dynamic pricing but it's pretty common.

> Maybe you could add a custom stylesheet to Lynx to make the indent work?

Lynx Style Sheets (LSS) don't really cover that kind of scenario from what I remember[1] - they're more "apply this ncurses/slang-style to this element".[2]

[1] I wrote the original code but I am old and increasingly senile.

[2] I've not really been involved for ~20 years but unless the internal "renderer" has been radically overhauled, supporting anything like "real" CSS isn't really doable.
