It’s likely a joke post as it says “If you eat this carrot, your car will run non stop. dm”

It’s the Nepali symbol for rupee “रु” and also the text underneath is in romanized Nepali language.

On iPadOS, with dark mode, when you use back gesture in safari at the edge of the screen, the whole UI glitches to a white screen. The flash startles and is very annoying.

Has been happening ever since 26.

I use workrave on my computer to remind me of regular breaks. But then, I switch to my phone during those breaks. 🤦‍♂️

One thing I have done is increase the font sizes on the phone and browser (my most used app), so I usually have it in a distance. Having big fonts looked weird at first, but then I got used to it. Hopefully it helps a little.

Run free runs with target pace or target heart rate zone

I saw this feature on the list. Does it warn you when you go higher or lower than the target zone? I use Opentracks and I don’t think it has this feature.

It runs okay, but starts to rattle under load and at random times.

I tried to get the fan replaced but couldn’t find a replacement, in local stores or second hand parts market. I looked at online retailers but they wouldn’t ship to my country. lol

My main laptop is 11 years old.

poor old fan noises

Interesting bit:

Samsung fans are already protesting in the comments and some are certain that the photos were manipulated. Ice Universe is actually one of the more controversial tech observers, having also made several critical comments about Samsung in the past, but we don’t want to accuse him of deliberate manipulation. Incidentally, the Vivo X300 series will officially launch in Europe in just a few days, as has now been confirmed.

Partially, I think. There is an joint venture on creating an independent European search infrastructure. I have heard Qwant using it for the French market but not sure about other regions.

This happens to me on images from feddit.org. maybe geoblocking? Their website feddit.org doesn’t ever load for me.

India does the same to Nepal.

We can’t catch a break with these two meddling in everything we do. Our politicians being corrupt as f doesn’t help. The highest bidder shapes our policies. 🤦‍♂️

Do people really want Android’s horrible memory management in a laptop package?

I think there’s a misunderstanding. She said “the government”, not just her interim government.

“The government, moving forward, should keep corruption in check as one of their main goal.”

Again, those were the demands by the protestors for the government, not just this government.

They obviously can’t end it, but the gist is to minimize it by strengthening laws and enforcing them.

That’s my interpretation of it. You’re free to keep your own.

Where does it exactly say “we’re going to solve corruption in 6 months”?

It’s called “interim” for a reason. The protest were against corruption. Nobody is expecting anyone to solve it in 6 months or a year or whatever timeframe. It’s a path forward, not a deadline.

In this type of situation marginal improvements are usually enough to placate the populace.

As I see it, it’s too early to tell. It could go both ways. I’m hoping the resolution doesn’t just end up with small changes to placate the populace. We’ll see.

It indeed isn’t easy, but the protests and riots exhibited that people aren’t just going to sit idly by and take corruption lightly anymore. People and especially youths are getting more involved, not just venting and lashing out in social media.

There’s a long road ahead and there are a lot of external influence to look out for, as a small country. But the situation is looking hopeful.

I hope it stays that way and improves.
