Boffins convert typing sounds into text with 95% accuracy
  • That speed is usually transcription for me, I'm listening to someone and type what I hear. Actual writing and composing a thought typing speed is closer to 120wpm or so. I learned to type on a typewriter which is much slower, current low profile mech keyboard contributes to faster typing speed too.

  • Best Buy to end DVD & Blu-ray disc sales
  • This is my biggest gripe. I have all of Mr. Show on DVD because it cant be taken away from me. Netflix deleted an episode of w/ Bob and David, so to watch the whole thing you have to pirate it. And the rub is they deleted it because David does blackface in one of the sketches where he's trying to provoke cops at a traffic stop.

    Scenes of him in the now deleted episode are in the final one because its a documentary of sorts, but that one is still up. So you see them talking about sketches that you have no reference for because Netflix deleted them.

  • FUCK YEAH
  • That's good to know. I bought several Reddit apps over my 15 year history with the site, I don't have a problem supporting developers but I absolutely hate the subscription model. It feels like letting a colony of ticks leech off of you when literally EVERYONE is doing it.

  • ‘Hell on earth’: Phoenix’s extreme heatwave tests the limits of survival
  • I've only been to the Sky Harbor there in a layover and the brief walk off the plane into the airport made me wonder why anyone chooses to live there. Just blasted by dry heat that feels like it sucks the moisture out of your eyeballs.

  • Boox Palma Review — eWriteable Readers
  • Can't wait for Boox to perfect their color tech enough to produce a screen this size with the color. We've already gotten down to the 7" form factor, which is nice but not quite the size a lot of people want in an everyday carry device that's in addition to a phone.

  • Boox Palma Review — eWriteable Readers

    Boox sent review units of the Palma to some people with sites covering e-readers, so early coverage is starting to come in. The model reviewed here is a developer unit, but everything said is encouraging for people who just want a single-handed device.

    Lots of pics from all angles of the device and 300dpi looks gorgeous on that tiny form factor.

    Games Featuring Cleaning & Organizing

    nintygamer.com Best Games Featuring Cleaning & Organizing on Nintendo Switch

    Want to organize and clean until your heart's content? Find something zen about making a space look better? Check out these games.

    Sometimes when I get home from a long day of work, the last thing I want to do is play a game with a bunch of complicated tasks to keep track of. As much as I love Stardew Valley, if you're not keeping track of your relationships, the community center, and more—you're wasting a lot of time while you're playing. I like games where I don't have to think as much, with cute elements and puzzles. Most of these games suit those requirements.

    Outrage as Republican says 1921 Tulsa massacre not motivated by race
  • Same experience, I grew up in Arkansas so a neighbor to Oklahoma. You'd think something of that historical significance would be covered thoroughly. But nope. I was in third or fourth grade with Timothy McVeigh bombed a municipal building in Oklahoma and they wheeled in a TV on one of those media carts for us to watch that, though.

  • Google decimates Twitter search results after Elon Musk imposes limits on reading tweets
  • I can't believe how fast the fediverse is growing thanks to both reddit and Twitter simultaneously imploding. I honestly welcome it, despite the growing pains this feels more like early 2000s reddit than the modern version ever did.

    Can't wait for genZ to welcome the return of spaces that aren't optimized for monetization over communication first.

    Reddit user alleges California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) non-compliance/violation; and finds it difficult to delete posts and content on Reddit
  • I guarantee most power users are the ones who are upset about this change. Losing decades of content they created for free hurts reddit unimaginably. How many articles have you seen about SEO ruining Google and needing to append 'reddit' to searches?

    Power users deleting their content ruins that search engine to reddit pipeline.

  • I want to debunk Reddit's claims, and talk about their unwillingness to work with developers, moderators, and the larger community, as well as say thank you for all the support
  • I'm really hoping some of the reddit devs are interested in helping out the people who were most loyal to them. I use Boost on Android personally, but I would be willing to buy another version of the app that is designed for the Fediverse. I'd pay double what I paid for the reddit app, just to support the active developer of my app.
