Multi thousand dollar pro camera and they can’t figure out the WiFi. Sony’s unwillingness to provide any material firmware updates is so disappointing.

The creator of photopea.com is very responsive to user suggestions. I’d recommend contacting him if you haven’t already.

Can you help me understand how you use an LLM instead of google/bing? Did you have to set it up? Got a link to share? Thanks.

Have been tested for the type 1 antibody? I was diagnosed as type 2 cause doctors assume type 1 doesn’t happen in your late 30s. It happened to me. Wasted a bunch of time trying to treat it as type 2.
Not overweight and type 2 is rare.

It’s time for an uprising against the ad industry. There’s far too much money and power at play here. They’ve gone full throttle against at every turn and we just take it.
We need to organize ourselves and educate our friends and families. Let’s boycott the largest ad spenders and get some control back in our lives. I feel like we’re living in John Carpenter's They Live.

Their scummy website doesn’t list their prices in any way I can see. Hard pass.

I have a feeling you’re misremembering the details. Toyota’s have a reputation for being some of the most reliable cars.

I think the average NH user overestimates how many people use ad blockers. We’re the minority.

Seconded on platform.io. Unsurprisingly, they support the Digispark: https://docs.platformio.org/en/stable/boards/atmelavr/digisp... .

To each their own, but for me, high quality wireless buds with ANC are worth every penny.

“ Most patients with Type 1 diabetes have to monitor their blood glucose levels carefully and inject themselves with insulin at least once a day.”
Once a day lol. Tell me you don’t know anything about Type 1 diabetes without telling me you don’t know anything about type 1 diabetes.
