They're surprisingly popular state-side. Especially in big party cities like Miami.

How is this not a stalking app?

Cannot stress this method enough especially for information heavy books. Listening while reading alo

That's really interesting. I've never tried this but I imagine it would take a bit of practice to sync your reading speed with the audiobook speed, but that could just be me. One thing that has helped me in the past is trying to voice each character distinctly in my head (this is the only way I made it most of the way through Trails in the Sky) but that also slows my reading way down. Which now that I put two and two together probably has something to do with it 😅

This could also just be from ADHD burnout. Many ADHD kids make it through to adulthood by burning up 10 times the energy of our peers. By the time we do get there, our reserves can be absolutely shot. I haven't made it back to reading books yet but I have found that I can sink into new non-digital hobbies like horticulture. My guess is that it uses a mental energy well that I haven't tapped yet, at least not completely.

Now try having both at the same time while only being diagnosed for one. What a wonderful childhood that was.

Verizon is finally laying fiber optic in western maryland. I can't wait to ditch Starlink and save ~$100 a month in the process.

Oh, so that's why my internet went out for 4 hours yesterday. RIP.

yeah, it appears that they just took some generic gauge animation, in which arrows always tend to start on the left-hand side (think any of the gauges in your car.) Once you vote it does tell you that the most popular opinion is that it's center/fair

DOCIS 3.1 involves more than just speed. No point going over the speed limit if all the traffic lights are timed based on a certain speed. https://www.cablelabs.com/blog/how-docsis-3-1-reduces-latency-with-active-queue-management

If your provider has implemented it (Comcast is the only one i know of in north america) then Active Queue Management is a huge quality of life improvement that you won't know you were missing unless you already had a router that implements queue management. https://www.cablelabs.com/blog/how-docsis-3-1-reduces-latency-with-active-queue-management

By default, WiFi Motion is set to detect even small amounts of movement in the motion-sensing areas, including motion caused by small pets.

I live in Appalachia and people here regularly use ham for weather reports but that's about it. If there was an actual emergency I assume that would be sent out as well.
