Could it be High Park in Toronto? I was just there yesterday and saw a Great Egret much like this one (also a Green Heron and a couple of beavers).

Some natural cushioning is needed to appreciate the comfort of the floor, I imagine. I’m too boney for that.

I’m pretty sure I’m in my fourth pair now.

I’m sitting on an Aeron at work, it’s good, but I can’t in good conscience pay that much for a chair. I was recently on the market for a new office chair and extensively researched it. It really looks like it’s a hit or miss with every chair in every price range, and I was very seriously considering replacing my Hyken with another Hyken. I decided to go with the IKEA Markus and have been sitting on it for about a month. I’m only moderately happy with it, may even return it before the year is up although I’d hate doing it.

That is almost certainly Staples Hyken. Comfortable chair but cheaply made, mine started disintigrating in a couple of years.

QWERTY on a cheap Dell keyboard I’ve had for 12 years.

I’m sure some of the alternatives are objectively superior, but with all due respect to enthusiasts, I’m simply not passionate about it and have yet to be convinced that the time and pain spent on getting used to a new layout would actually be worth it in the long run.

Digital only. Who even has room for physical books.

Have autoplay disabled

Yes, I have a 14h reminder to drink 1L of water, which is my entire daily intake. I have this reminder because without it I may well drink nothing at all and not even realize.

You can’t successfully use a home email server.

Mostly true (server can be home but using the ISP network directly probably won’t work)

You can’t successfully use an email server on a (cloud) VPS.

Bullshit

You can’t successfully use an email server on a bare metal machine in your own datacenter.

As such, it is my distinct displeasure to declare the death of SMTP. The protocol is no longer usable. And as we can see, this devolution occurred organically.

Bullshit

I wonder if the process is open source or we just take their word that it’s privacy preserving. Anyway, privacy is not the only problem with online advertising, so I’m not going to give up adblocking any time soon.

It’s exaggerated but yes, this map really reminds me of many large Chinese cities. It’s probably true every major city has a People’s Square. I think the map is based on Beijing.

Also note that if it’s just for personal use, you don’t have to have a domain for HTTPS. You can self sign, or create your own certificate authority, you just need to clients to trust it. But domains can be cheap or even free, so it’s better to get one so you don’t have to specially configure your devices.

I had the tune to Men of Harlech stuck in my head for almost 20 years, then I randomly watched a video about Wales that used it, and I was able to make the connection from there.

Someone once told me their grandparents in Brazil were part of a community where Latin was spoken as the primary language, but I can’t find any information about it online in English.

I also always start with “crane” 😁

Is it actually running snap or just unpacking its content and running it as a normal flatpak?
