- Comment on Dr Strange saw 4 billion possible futures and none of them had Thor lopping off Thanos' head on his first shot 1 week ago:
The subtext there might be that Dr Strange felt so hopeless about the situation that he didn’t conceive to look into the possibility, out of an infinite number of them.
- Comment on You should know there's a font designed to make reading easier, especially for people with low vision. It's called Atkinson Hyperlegible Next. It's free for personal and commercial use. 2 weeks ago:
That’s quite a nice typeface. I find myself torn between serif vs sans; when reading g a book it’s so ingrained to expect serif (I switched from Bookerly) that my eyes stuttered a bit when I started Atkinson’s.
As long as I can get the OTF or TTF files, I’ll try em all. You have any more?

Thank you for that suggest. I had taken a peek at it a while ago and it’s too “wobbly” for me.

I just added this to my eReader. I’ve been reading g a lot lately and while I haven’t had any difficulty, I’m eager to see if it enhances comprehension.
Good post OP.

- Comment on Sooo, where did the blatant Nazism suddenly come from? 1 month ago:
I wish I could find it now, but there was a quote attributed to someone suffering under an oppressive regime which would blatantly lie, and yet it remained accepted: “The lie is the insult.”

I find comfort in k owing there are more planes in the sea than there are submarines in the sky.

Thank you! Can’t believe it’s been a year already. Wow

All planes land, some more controlled than others.
Take-offs are optional; landings are mandatory.

Note linking is what did it for me a few years back. It’s possible in OneNote, and clunky as hell.
I was sold the moment I read links can be wiki style.

They just need to be remagnetized.

- Comment on UPS and servers : simulated sine wave good? 2 months ago:
That’s my thought, that the power blip is basically too long, and why I suggest to OP to try a different UPS.
- Comment on UPS and servers : simulated sine wave good? 2 months ago:
Ideally you’d isolate the UPS as the problem, so it would be good if you could borrow one for a few days or so to check. It could be that the UPS isn’t the problem.
Consider reviewing the return policy of a company where you can get a pure sine wave inverter and if it fixes the problem you’re good, and you’ve already got your replacement. Else, there may be a configuration or hardware problem.
- Comment on UPS and servers : simulated sine wave good? 2 months ago:
Well, might have to do some isolation tests if you can borrow a pure sine wave UPS and see if it makes a difference. Outside of that, the power blip might be too much for the power supply to handle or it trips up BIOS/mobo voltage sampling.
- Comment on UPS and servers : simulated sine wave good? 2 months ago:
There are some devices which will protest under modified sine wave, and some which may even get damaged. I recently accepted the risk of using an msw inverter with some electronics and did not notice any issues, but I had read that the device would be fine with it.

Somewhen in there are creatures we’d really get along with were it not for the 58.71M light years between our galaxies, and the unlikelihood we both exist as a simultaneous civilizations.
- Comment on YouTube Shorts can now run up to three minutes 5 months ago:
The very first video on YouTube was 19 seconds.
Then videos got so long they created shorts.
Now shorts are longer than the first YouTube video.
We’ve come full circle.
A three minute short is not a short, it is a video lol
