I'm pretty pleased with myself for unbricking an old 2nd gen Nest using No Longer Evil, but honestly the process is so simple, I shouldn't be too proud.

If you have a 1st or 2nd gen Nest that no longer connects to the app, consider using NLE. But if you decide to buy new, please do not buy Nest.

I finally had a chance to look at some of these in the original resolution on a big 8k screen, and it very much rewards doing so. The detail is absolutely gorgeous, and really changes the meaning of an already beautiful image.

Ugh. What are practical alternatives to Firefox? I already have Vivaldi, but some important things don’t work with it (e.g. 1Password).

This is one reason why individual donations are so important. Relying on a single large donor for cash flow introduces a strong dependency. Relying on 10000 or 20000 or 100000 small donors for that same cash flow means that any individual donor's choices, for better and worse, will barely even register.

(And Mozilla was captured long ago, by the Firefox search engine placement agreement with Google if nothing else.)

If I've asked AI for advice on making my code multithreaded, how many problems do I have? I want to report the number accurately to my therapist.
in reply to James Scholes

@jscholes That depends. Were there, or will there be, regular expressions involved at any point in the process?

A bob is a shilling
4 farthings to an old penny
12 pennies in a shilling
20 shillings in a pound
So 240 pennies to the pound and 10 bob is the same as 50 new pence. A Guinea is a pound and a shilling. A pony is 25 Quid and Thu’penny bit is rhyming slang. All very straightforward.
I don’t know why anyone has a problem with this.

I just realized if you set your iPhone to be used by an underage user you can override app advertising that you can’t override as an adult iPhone user. That seems useful, has anyone done this? Any issues to consider?
