My advice: don’t change anything else right now.

The temptation is high to pack it all in at once; make all the big changes.

2 hours a day is a lot. Not too much, just a lot. So, since you asked, don’t change your diet yet. Get into the groove of building this new thing into some level of consistency. Once you’re 90 days in, start modifying something else. Diet. Sleep. Intensity.

Work on one routine at a time.

Now if you’re going too far into calorie deficit then you can think about what your energy needs are but keep the other changes to bare necessity.

Lying liar lied. News at 11.

I can’t imagine that being the case for most users. I’m absolutely a power user and I keep being surprised at how consistently high the performance is of my base model M1 Air w/16GB even when compared to another Mac workstation of mine with 64GB.

I can run two VMs, a ton of live loading development tooling, several JVM programs and so much more on that little Air and it won’t even sweat.

I’m not an Apple apologist - lots of poor decisions these days and software quality has taken a real hit. While 16GB means everyone’s getting a machine that should last much longer, I can’t see a normal user needing more any time soon, especially when Apple is optimizing their local machine learning models for their 8GB iOS platforms first and foremost.

You come to my door. You get candy.

Young, old, costume or not.

Got a chance to ride in a BYD EV this summer. Impressive vehicle, doubly so for the price.

It exists for the outgoing Mac mini. We ran two minis in a 1u, colocated in a DC, for years. They ran Ubuntu server.

Wonka Piercer. It’s so implausible it just might be true.

…drew their swords and shot each other. A deaf policeman heard their cry.

If you don’t believe this lie is true. Ask the blind man, he saw it too.

Not entirely accurate.

Zen brings a number of additions that even the Mozilla team have taken note of regarding features they hope to implement down the road.

They are.

Not maliciously, but out of laziness.

I regularly see “you need chrome to use this site”.

Nothing a user agent spoofing extension can’t fix.

Also, if anyone has concerns about Firefox there are some really interesting forks.

Zen has been my go to for a couple of weeks.

Lighting system as a wake up tool.

Have now been using a light or lighting system as a morning wake up for over 15 years. It’s life changing.

Lights start off dim and red/orange, and brighten very slowly to warm white. Works every time.

I wake up without the jolt of an alarm at home.

In fact - automated lighting in general - just so good.

Recently decided to try Linux for gaming. It wasn’t without a hitch or two, but largely fine. A number of games I play don’t even need an emulation tool like Proton.

The only reason windows was lying around was for gaming.

Looks like it’ll only get used for flight simulation.

Not accurate at all.

Daddy and top-dog-son want to prevent the rest from moving the media business away from fringes of the right.

The claim is that they’ll devalue the inheritance for all by making it less profitable (summary only).

Great coverage a few weeks ago on NYT’s The Daily podcast if reading isn’t your thing: https://pca.st/episode/7ff0fd47-2c1c-471e-a41f-6861322838f9

Shawshank Redemption.

The Big Lebowski.

Also Star Trek 2.

So many great ones though.

Write to LanguageTool. They’re OSS in name only at the moment. I self-host their server, but the client is only usable on desktop and limited to web browsers without their paid version.

I’ve long been asking to be a customer, but to use their self-hosted server for privacy.

I think there’s a small but growing market for folks that want a quality grammar and spell check but don’t want data sent to the cloud.

If I could connect iOS to my LT server that’d be so rad.
