All i want is sleep and step tracking. Is this a good option?

I got tired of constant updates/apps on home screen/lag and all on my Samsung TV and finally bought a Sony. Everything I do is through Apple TV and Xbox now, Sony is not connected to the internet.

Other than the slow boot (takes about 5 seconds to switch to Apple TV after pressing power button), I have no complaints.

S&P 500 is barely down (~9% as of this post) after returning 23% and 24% respectively in 2023 and 2024. I wouldn't call it ugly, as someone who lived through recession.

Only users who are tech-savy know they are lying.

My mom, who has Ublock Origin installed on her Chrome by me, will never know these details.

Not dreamweaver, But I use Flash (Macromedia) on Windows and Adobe on Mac frequently.

Call it muscle memory, I find it easier to cook a chart, shape and basic resize/crop on Flash.

Obviously it is 1.

But try it on iOS calculator, answer is 0.

Reason is when computing large numbers e.g. 100000........n + 1 - 100000........n, addition of 1 is pretty in-significant.

Re: (10^100)+1-(10^100)

i) Answer is 0 if you cancel out two expression (10^100)

ii) Answer is 1 if you compute 10^100 and then add 1 which is insignificant.

How do you even cater for these scenarios? This needs more than arithmetic.

This could affect the sales, as there will be less court-side seats.

I personally think the 3-point line needs to be uniform distance. It is 22 feet from the corner compared to ~24ish feet from the center.

On a similar note, why haven't PDF been replaced? There are XPS, DjVu and XHTML (EPUB) but they all seem to be targeting different usecase (a packaged HTML file).

What I want is a simple document format that allows embedding other files and metadata without the Adobe's bloat. I should be able to hyperlink within pages, change font-size etc without text overflowing and being able to print in a consistent manner.

There are different variations of Omega 3 fatty acids. For instance, Avocados is rich in Omega 3 ALA which is considered not as effective as EPA and DHA.

Fish is the only source of EPA and DHA.
