The bit that thinks is in my head feels to be at the front. But it knows that my heart is equally important. So I feel that I am my head and my body.
People who have lost a limb say they feel like they’ve lost a part of themselves not just physically but in their sense of wholeness.
From reading the articles it seems many children were collected but of course they also complained to the school board about the disruption.
I get what you’re saying. There’s a mindset in the fediverse that everyone on an instance is responsible for it. Even if the bad actors join later. The instance gets defederated but as a user it can be really hard to know if your instance is defederated.
It’s a deeply unpopular opinion and anyone who suggests that federation is simultaneously a huge advance and a big problem seems to get downvoted.
You’re right, ultimately instead of being exposed to a range of views some of which are challenging we’ll end up in little echo chambers.
We need more moderation and less defederation.
They weren’t stuck on buses they were waiting on buses to arrive. There were school staff with them.
Pay a consultancy $200,000 to design routes. How on earth did they not realise that would go wrong. And all because they would not pay enough to attract new drivers.
As far as I understand it, there is an API but as with all APIs you need a key/license/magic number to use it.
So far, Google has allowed access to Samsung, a carrier version and no one else.
An app can only do anything with the data you give it access to. It can’t collect new data while it’s closed.
If it’s running in the background it can collect data but only if you’ve given it permission. For example you might give an execrable app permission to record your heart rate, number of steps etc.
Those dishes sound like something from Futurama. Methanol Surprise!
It’s not drying that causes leaves to go brown. The plant actively pumps its waste products into leaves which turns them brown. Also some leaves can oxidise when damaged.
You’re right the game was pretty much won by then. The Firefox angle was to go for the limited resources end of the market (as it should have run better than Android on less powerful modestly priced handsets) So it launched at the very budget end.
The problems were: People wanted an Android phone so they could use the apps their friends wanted even if they could only afford a slow but cheap experience; the people who might have been interested in a Firefox OS weren’t interested in budget handsets; the experience was poor and there was little ‘app’ support.
I’ve done UAT for the company I work for. I think a lot of software that does a public Beta should be UAT before release as many public beta testers don’t do any testing at all just use it as a way to get software early.
There’s lots of reasons including psychology.
When you listen to Radio you generally don’t know what songs will be played unless the DJ teases what’s coming. When they tease it’s always something that the vast majority will like.
So with radio you have the anticipation factor which helps bridge the advert gap (if the station plays adverts in between tracks)
When you listen to radio you are often distracted or doing something else.
If you put in an album then you now exactly what order the tracks will be and unless you skip tracks will inevitably have some that are fillers. Also, you are more likely to concentrate on the music which involves more thinking. All of this leads to boredom or fatigue.
