Truly DIY- I could ship you a chunk of copper and some plastic pellets, if you need it in a ‘kit’ form I could include IKEA-style instructions if you want?

How far down the rabbit hole do you want to go?
There’s a whole range of DIY, from just swapping out keycaps, to designing, manufacturing, and hand-wiring from the ground up.
*Agreed, window snapping is better in Windows.
*It’s been a hot minute since I used anything other than Expose to choose which window I want (Which is great, btw) but don’t you just click and hold on the dock icon?
*Agreed, more troubleshooting on startup would be handy. But to be fair, I’ve had way more startup issues with my windows box than my Mac. In fact, the last Mac startup issue I think I had would have been about six years ago. Whereas I’ve probably had six in the last year alone on the Windows machine. Sample size of one, of course. shrug
*Have you met my good friend, the command line?
Are you saying you couldn’t get the home folder to open? Or you couldn’t locate the folder?
Isn’t it just the in the shortcut pane, the username with the picture of a house? To you try to open the ‘go’ menu and select ‘home’?
If only there was something more specific that a wider range of people could relate to.
Does ammonium chloride brine not freeze at different pressures?
Why does it have to be based on weather? There’s plenty of other reasons to measure temperature. Some with handy reference points that lots of people are familiar with.
Wait, he chose 96, or he measured it?
Well if you’re going to bring precautions into it, we may as well say the upper and lower bounds should include things like ‘feels hot even with air conditioning on’ or ‘survivable with a heated jacket and boots’.
I don’t think I can tell the difference if something is only one degree apart in Celcius, let alone Fahrenheit.
Comparing an 18C day to a 19C day, for example, I challenge anyone to notice a difference. A 64F to 65F day? Good luck.
I agree with the Celsius scale making sense around zero. Water freezing is probably one of the most relatable, quantifiable examples of a temperature point for the most humans. However, lots of people don’t live somewhere that it snows, or even own a freezer.
So what’s the most common touch point for people? I’d go with water boiling. I can’t really think of what sort of person who did not have exposure to that at some point. That should be the zero point, the common denominator.
I’m interested in your comment about perceptions, could you unpack that a little more?
I’m struggling to understand. I’m imagining an Apple Surface, is that what you are thinking?
If I wanted to access my Jellyfin at home from a smart TV elsewhere, is that possible (securely)? Or would I need something that can run a vpn?
Your purpose in life is now to supply power to the grid. At first it’ll be great, you’re celebrated as a neat way to keep the baseline juice coming as fossil fuels phase out. Then you’re asked to stay back a few hours as there’s a shortfall predicted, you oblige out of duty. Then one day you wake up in a drugged daze, strapped to a giant battery, your nutritional needs piped directly to your bloodstream as scientists ever so carefully cut you open to try and figure out how this works, because despite their best efforts to keep your wrecked body alive, one day you will die, and the utter reliance of the grid on your free energy will die with it, and with that kick off the downfall of humanity.
It would be useful because it gives multiple specific and relatable reference points. How is that not useful?
The way humans relate to the temperature has a huge range and so very vague. Do you say that 0 is when you swap shorts for trousers? Or when you put a hoody on? Or is it when your neighbour puts their hoody on? Or when your friend from Texas puts their hoody on?
It’s like when you come across a recipe that calls for a knob of butter. Everyone’s knob is a different size, we’ve just agreed to say that whatever it is, it’s enough.
