Hell yeah, this was our jam with my friends back in the day

Really nice goal from Switzerland!

Nice goal by Eriksen, but Slovenia did well, I think the tie is well deserved

This would be the best way. Unfortunately they made it the other way around. A screen at the door shows the code, and you scan it with the app.

In my previous gym the code was on the app, but I’m not sure anymore if it was static or it changed over time. But the reader on the door was awful, I used to spend a good 3 minutes trying different angles with my phone to make it recognize the code.

Ohh. This is exactly the side project idea I’ve had on the back of my mind for a few years now. Something minimal and straightforward, just to sharpen my programming skills and learn a couple of things along the way. Maybe I’ll get around to building it some day.

Yeah I’ve been saying this to people. Don’t get mad at GDPR, get mad at companies who harvest your data

I like to use cash. Used it all the time. But now I’ve fallen for the bank-card convenience… (especially self-checkout counters).

I’ve been considering to start using cash more again, but also I’ve noticed a bunch of places that don’t take cash anymore :/

Yes that’s a good point. I don’t have a lot of time to play so I try to stick with shorter games as you said in the post. Even if there is replayability I just drop it after I finish it the first time. For that reason I don’t play stuff like Minecraft and also rarely open worlds, I’ve played a few but try to stick to the main story

Am I the only one who just plays any given game once?

“Your friends and family understand what you do”

I’ve used Exportify (https://github.com/watsonbox/exportify) to get CSVs of my playlists. I do it for kind of disaster recovery scenario, so I’ve never actually had to re-import my playlists. Judging from the readme it seems it’s possible but tedious. And as for importing to a different service, no idea.

It does require you to log in with your Spotify account though. But I think it’s trustworthy enough and also you can self host it.

Sounds like JavaScript

Hmm yes maybe. I do remember a paywall bypass extension was removed from there because publishers were complaining to Vercel. Worst case scenario I guess your website gets taken down

You can create a simple static website and deploy it to Vercel for free. You can buy a domain name and attach it pretty easily, but it’s not needed (by default website will have .vercel.app domain).

Thanks everyone!! This is more than I expected. Lots of promising stuff! I will look into each and every one of your suggestions.

(Since it’s a bit silly to reply to every single comment the same thing, I’m just putting this one here)

I wouldn’t say it’s a bad thing. If it works for you, good. But if the book is in your native language, my advice would be read it in that language.

I tend to favor my native language for a few reasons though. I live in a foreign country so it helps me keep in touch with my language. Also if the book is old (like 100+ years) a translation in my language would make it easier to understand. Finally if it’s an audiobook, I find it easier to follow without zoning out if it’s in my language.

On Dream on (Aerosmith), I’ve always wondered if the couple “missing” notes from the arpeggio in 2:33 are intentional or a mistake.

JavaScript and TypeScript too
