Sounds like IPTV streaming

Kindly elaborate? Coming from someone who still uses AI mainly to draft emails and raspberry Pi as sandboxed automation project.

If battery life really is high up your list, look up Amazfit. The Bip 6 can last up to a month as a dumb watch health tracker. It's got some decent watchfaces too. Another Amazfit product that's popular is their Helio Strap, essentially a Whoop band rip off that does not require a monthly subscription but works just as well.

Still the best cloud service for me for my Windows. But I'm interested to hear how you set up Drive and Syncthing. Is the UI as familiar to use as the the standard Windows folder?

The battery is the single reason why I got the Amazfit. I use as a dumb health tracker and occasional GPS running. It easily lasts 4 weeks on a single charge. That's one less proprietary charging cable to bring on a trip.

As someone who' just counting steps, I'm genuinely curious what's your average steps per day? And how many steps over 10 years?

And here I thought after reading the headline: finally a reliable Arabic OCR. I've never in my life found a good that does the job decently especially for a scanned document. Or is there something out there I don't know about?

I wouldn't say it's a downgrade, but I had to run Windhawk and other mods just to make sure the start menu doesn't look like a phone's app drawer.

Interestingly while the minorities have a higher birth rate compared to the majority Chinese, the ethnic breakdown remains the exact same throughout the decades. This is because Singapore's unsaid migration policy is such that the government takes in more immigrants of Chinese ethnicity to make up for the shortfall.

This is obvious yet brilliant. I've been working for so long without realising that meetings are a process, not the end. I.e. they have to lead to something.

I would appreciate an archive link though

I'm sad Bookdepository is closing.

You seem to be describing an Android tablet with e-ink display. Aside from Remarkable, what else is out there worth buying?

I always have this problem. Not sure if I want the mouse pad to be totally deactivated while typing. I don't mind the pointer moving (might be a valid input anyway), but the clicking should be disabled so that the typing doesn't accidentally appear on an unintended area of the screen.

Well these days they call it ASMR. But you're right he's one of the first to strip away all unnecessary sounds. Makes for a very therapeutic video.
