prioritized passenger traffic over freight

Technically that’s already the law. But freight lines don’t care because the law isn’t enforced

Tailwind is my go-to these days

The same reason you don’t carry a camera, a music player, a phone, etc as separate devices in your pocket. Because it’s wildly inconvenient and super frustrating to swap between them. For diabetics in this case, you generally have two separate companies making the pump and the glucose monitor. So at that point you are carrying a phone around, a monitor for your glucose levels, and a controller for your pump. That’s three devices that you need to keep charged and on your person at all times. Not to mention they are generally not slim and sleek and easy to pocket.

The ability to swap between these from a single device and the mental offload that brings can’t be overstated.

That being said, people that use medical services on their phones should not do OS upgrades until they are notified by their makers to be verified and working and should be heavily tested before any updates go out.

Yes, corporate lobbying is a huge problem here and is often used as a weapon to stifle competition and increase profits. At times it’s hard to remember what regulations are meant to do: Protect People from Corporations

We don’t need to remove regulations, we need to improve them.

Ah yes, just what the healthcare industry needs, LESS regulation. That’ll keep those for profit companies from gouging people for the life saving measures they need to not die.

They probably still will, as Omaha and Lincoln are the two major cities in Nebraska that are both left leaning.

Minus ad breaks, I missed this aspect of content consumption. Choosing to watch a random episode of a random show just doesn’t happen and I missed being able to just “see what’s on”. I spent a fair amount of time setting up random “channels” I can tune into that play random episodes from tv shows on my media server and it’s great.

Arctic it was I switched to and has been good.

I had a nest thermostat and I bought a room sensor for it and the scheduling settings for it were horribly rigid (morning, afternoon, evening and night were the only time options available for room targeting and were not adjustable)

I couldn’t have been the only person that didn’t fit into that scheduling and started researching it and came across a support ticket for it that was over 2 years old. It was clear a bare minimum feature for that product was never going to be implemented and I replaced it with an EcoBee thermostat

This is what I recently did with my grandparents.

Wat

We thought their little old dog was ready to go and didn’t like to see her suffering.

Oh!

We’re in 2024 now my guy

Well that just sent me down a rabbit hole.

My first foray into PWAs was this year but it was a short lived endeavor when I found out I had no hopes of feature parity across devices for core functionality and decided to switch to React Native instead. I didn’t know android did that with PWAs.

Thanks for the explanation.

which does this by generating an APK on google servers and installing it

I’m sorry but that not at all how PWAs work at all. PWAs are just websites. There is no APK. At its core it is a bookmark to a website without the browser UI.

Chrome definitely offers a lot more APIs than other browsers to allow a website to interface with a phone a lot better. Often outside of the standards the web has set. That can make browsers that follow the standards feel behind (Firefox) and really emphasizes browsers that purposely hinder their browser to incentivize native apps (IOS Safari).

You can set up websites to run as standalone apps by adding them to your Home Screen from the browser.

How native an experience you will get with that is dependent on the developer and the work they put in when it comes to caching, implementation of web workers, push notifications, meta data, etc.

The Nvidia shield is the android tv with google play services. It would be your drop in replacement for the Panasonic interface you are currently using.

Blockhead - The Music Scene is just incredible

I’m at least glad the change to “citizens of the state of Ohio” instead of “state of Ohio” got reversed. That wording would definitely have been used to work around the amendment in the future.

When you first start it can relieve stress and be relaxing, but that is a trap. Those effects will fade and what will be left is a habit. A habit that your brain will do some pretty large mental gymnastics to justify.

This one is so ingrained in me that I didn’t even know I did it for the first 20 years of my life and couldn’t stop it if I tried

The coolant is what is responsible for moving the heat. Your refrigerator/heat pump/car/etc do the same thing.
