  • There's another trick - checking against street maps. When you walk/drive/ride around a corner the phone can use it's inaccurate GPS reading and update it according to where the corner is. Of course it doesn't use ONE corner. to fully update your position, it just nudges the position a bit closer.

    In case you are navigating a lot of street corners, after a time an inaccurate GPS position will be corrected.

    There's even more input to the algorithm (location of known WIFI Hotspots for example etc) and they are all combined with a "Kalman filter".

  • I'm keeping a mumber of my first generation Eneloops around. Around 10% of the ones I bought in the 2010s died, the others are still duing duty in my TV remote control etc.

    The ones that died mostly died because of staying in a moving box for around 6 years or so after I divorced and forgot about them.

    So I'm amazed how many of them just keep working.

  • You don't get cookie check boxes because of GDPR. You're getting them because companies want to track you, and need to ask if they do so.

    If they don't want to steal your private info they don't need cookie check boxes, even under GDPR.

    Additionally, those shitty checkboxes, that take 1000 clicks and 5 minutes if you don't want to get tracked? Illegal under GDPR. Rejected getting tacked needs to be "as easy" as getting tracked by GDPR law.

    Companies hating their tracking data business going away like to shit on GDPR - and if it's repeated frequently enough peopme believe it.

    (Btw Kosa sounds really dangerous in itself, I'm not advocating for that)

  • Tbh, it's not a fairy tale but an illustrated children's book written in 1845 by Heinrich Hoffman for his three year old kid. It was one of the first illustrated books, so it is considered to be one of the first comic books. Each story has a morale but is way over the top.

    Interestingly a lot of the descibed behavior is known to be with ADHD or anorexia, today.

    Growing up in Germany I always find Struwelpeter a quite horrible book (yes, I too had it a kid).

  • RFC 1925 (3) With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead.

  • I agree with the last statement at about a 70% level. The last 30% missing is - like you can't tickle yourself, there's some sensations that are different just because another person does them to you.

    I'm not anti relationship, it's just when viewing sex alone a lot of the things I experienced with someone else are just overrated. With very very few exceptions when I met humans with extremely high emotional intelligence.

    But maybe in the end that's all a discussion, that we all are generally bad in knowing and communicating what feels good for each other.

  • I can't relate as well, as I live in a city where things are really really aafe. But there are places where a women are afraid to walk alone in the dark, even for a few steps. (And even in safe places some people are quite afraid)

    I'd be very careful with remote diagnosis. You. might be right, she needs therapy. She might just be afraid, because something bad happened to her some time.

    The only way is for OP to have a good talk with her what's bothering her - and then he may come to a conclusion. As of now, there's just not enough information.

  • Speaking for a friend, they crashed the Mini Clubman S I love... sorry, THEY loved very much because of a WhatsApp that just arrived. Some one five cars ahead or so had to slam their brakes - eyes on the street would have made the reaction time "just enough" but even looking away for one second caused the crash.

    Learn from my err friend, don't look at your phone while driving, even for a very short time.

    Damage on the Mini was more than its worth at the time. No one was injured, but even what looks like a small fender bender can quickly get very expensive nowadays.
