Wouldn’t it be easier to just train a camera with continuous recording at your bed?

Then correlate the time you woke up in your sleep log with the camera footage.

Apple needs to go a step beyond this and optionally automatically pick the best card to use based on your location to get the max cash back.

It wasn’t obvious where to add a virtual home button, so I’m adding instructions here:

Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Assistive Touch

Is it just:

pnpm wxt build -b safari xcrun safari-web-extension-converter .output/safari-mv2

And that’s it? Or is there some hidden extra work involved.

How about a Safari/Mobile Safari extension so iPhone users can use it?

Social interaction while spatially reasoning also helps. (Social + cognitive load)

I have a JavaScript share sheet shortcut that forces a select all on any page. Really useful.

Something like this:

var result = [];

body = document.body;

sel = window.getSelection(); range = document.createRange(); range.selectNodeContents(body); sel.removeAllRanges(); sel.addRange(range);

selString = sel.toString();

// Call completion to finish completion(selString);

Where do you block it? I don’t see an obvious option at any of my banks or that article.

Exactly. Also curious how the NY Times names the woman and the company reps but never names the rapist. This article does name him: https://www.nbcrightnow.com/online_features/press_releases/j...

He says he bought all his own movies and tv shows on physical disc and ripped them for personal use.

He explains it in this video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ8ijmy3qPo and even shows some of his physical disc collection.

I don’t see it on mobile unless I turn off my ad blocking extension. Thank you! Never knew that was there.

Great video btw, two musicians with great communication and flow

How do you "directly go to where most people go"? Assuming you don't have timestamps in the comments or video description.

I got a 2-pack of do-not-disturb doorknob hangers (similar to the ones in hotels) from Amazon for $10.

Worked great with my kids for 2 months. Then they got used to it and barged in anyway. The same would happen with this gadget.
