TIL that we have tiny calcium crystals in our ears that, if dislodged, cause terrible vertigo.

    Holy fuck. This sounds exactly like what happened to me a year ago. One day, it came out of nowhere and I thought I was having a stroke. I was too dizzy to do anything and thought I might actually be dying.

    After a month, it got a lot better but I still constantly get bouts of it, especially when I bend over. It makes playing with my kids incredibly difficult at times.

    If it turns out I have BPPV and my doctors didn’t think to test me for THE MOST COMMON CAUSE of vertigo, ima be… unsurprised 😅

    Bah, that’s nothing compared to “driving along and then waiting ages behind a parked car to let an oncoming car through, then they don’t wave to thank you”.

    That sums up my experience too, but I have found it good for discussing functions for SQL and Powershell. Sometimes, it’ll throw something into its garbage code and I’ll be like “what does this do?” It’ll explain how it’s supposed to work, I’ll then work out its correct usage and solve my problem. Weirdly, it’s almost MORE helpful than if it just gave me functional code, because I have to learn how to properly use it rather than just copy/paste what it gives me.

    Absolutely agree with you, it’s about finding that value curve, where quality scales well with price. Say the cheapest ‘something’ is $10, the $20 one is twice as good, the $40 is maybe 70% better again but the $80 might only be 10% better than that.

    As a beginner, I’d go for maybe the $20 option or the $40 if I were confident I’d stick with it. But yeah, it’s a pain when your ability to enjoy or succeed at a hobby is hampered by buying the cheapest option off AliExpress, haha.

    It’s not perfect but PiHole will still catch a lot of the ads if you have the know-how to set one up. Tis a relatively cheap and easy solution that has the benefit of being able to block ads network-wide, providing your router lets you set a custom DNS.

    I was absolutely obsessed with SR2 as a kid, replayed it so many times.

    I think they could and absolutely should reboot it. The lore, the characters, the world was really something else. I think if they were to revisit it and utilise modern advances to really go HARD on the atmosphere and world design, it could be amazing.

    The Dead Space remake is a perfect example of this. It’s stayed mostly true to the original and used the new graphical and lighting technology available to make the environment and atmosphere so much deeper and more immersive. I’ve heard the RE4 remake also did it well but I’ve not played it yet.

    The geofencing thing feels like something Apple could easily resolve. When they review an app, they should just randomly spoof their location.

  • Hey all! Hoping somebody can help me; I bought some shrimp earlier today and a couple of these fellas snuck into the bag without anybody noticing. Anyone know what they are? I want to make sure I take care of them :) thanks for any help!

    Hey all, I was wondering if anyone could help me work out how to do this? Basically, I have a stupid number of smart devices and my router has become increasingly unstable. I want to have all my IOT devices on one router and reserve the other for priority devices like phones and PCs. I plan to put my IOT hub on 2G only and my primary hub on 6G and 6e only to avoid 2G congestion. Problem is, if I connect both my routers to my modem, only one can connect to the internet. I tried putting a network switch between the routers and the modem, no dice. Does anybody know how I can have 2 separate networks using 2 separate routers on a single modem? Both require internet connection but they don’t need to be able to communicate. Thanks in advance for any help people can give :)
