Same.

I don’t have a solution for you but yep this is the new and “improved” widget. Nothing wrong with your phone :(.

$2500-3500-ish, versus $3500-5k new. Steeper discounts on fully optioned models.

Saved you a click. Looks to me like deprecation is not all that dissimilar to that of optioned out Macbooks.

Did these really improve literacy rates? I thought pencils existed for a long time before them.

I’ve never had issues like that myself

Steel series Rival 500. Highly recommended. I got it specifically because I wanted as many buttons as possible but in an actually ergonomic to press layout vs trying to feel out the numbers in a numpad layout. https://steelseries.com/gaming-mice/rival-500

You can rest your thumb on a spot in the middle that looks like a button but isn’t and you can also lock out the 2 bottom buttons below your thumb with a physical switch if they get in the way

Science + Technology

• Applied Science - In depth videos about random science-y things this dude finds interesting. No clickbait, just an excited dude talking about a project he tried.

• Atomic Frontier - A lot like Tom Scott. He’s also a rare case where the video is more interesting than the title/thumbnail. Generally focused on science-y topics + has shockingly high production value considering the dude seems to be an overworked college student.

• NileRed/NileBlue - Crazy in depth chemistry videos. Personally find NileBlue more entertaining as he tends to explore things he’s not that great at.

• Practical Engineering - Explanations of various civil engineering concepts.

Other

• Krazam - Legendary comedy channel focused on software engineering related topics. Most famous video - microservices.

• You Suck At Cooking - Short videos presenting recipes in an entertaining way.

• Studio Binder ; High quality videos about all things movie/video production. Owned by a movie production software company so you’re gonna see ads for it in every video but SponsorBlock gets rid of that with no issues. Ultimate Guide to Camera Movement - Every Technique Explained

Valve needs to hire this person, my god. Love that they seem to really understand what users do with steam instead of just looking at it from miles away, removing every feature + calling it a redesign.

Steam’s UI has long been the worst part of using Steam for me, to the point that I actively avoid using any steam features I don’t have to. While they’ve made small parts of it prettier over time, figuring out how to do anything you haven’t done before is difficult, there’s clutter all over that makes information like reviews harder to scan, and to top it all off, every single page has a different UI I have to figure out.
