  • Just imagine Biden watching PewDiePie…

    Obama seems like a guy who’d watch Calum, Peter Dibble, and Wendover Productions, combined with other channels as well.

    GWB jr probably watch war documentaries, with somw general interest documentaries scattered in his watch history.

    Clinton seems like he would enjoy music performances and travel videos.

    GWB sr, no idea…

    Raegan, interviews with actors, republicans and millitary men, he probably enjoys the PeninsulaSrsVideos channel.

    Carter, if he was younger, would be making science/educational videos, but probably enjoy good science/history content, he’d probably be a fan of Calum, Peter Dibble and Wendover Productions.







  • In my school in Sweden the blanket rule was that once you were ten you got to bike to school.

    Now this was in the suburbs north of Stockholm and the streets were calm, but we did have to pass a rail crossing.

    I remember the day before school school was starting, my mom walked me and my sister to school to show the way we should walk to school, and then we walked to and from school unsupervised from when I was six.







  • In my 2021 Seat Leon the controls for defogging the windscreen and the heated rear window (both essential in Sweden) are placed on a cluster of touch buttons below and to the left of the steering wheel.

    It is insane, you have to take you eyes off the road and lean forward to press them.

    Also, to activate the seat heater, you need to access the climate panel on the infotainment, so you loose the view of any CarPlay navigation.

    The car has dedicated touch surfaces to change the AC temp, but the main ones are next to the power button touch area for the infotainment, and none of the areas are illuminated.

    I like my car, it is fun and comfortable, but the overreliance of touch controls is infuriating at times.

    I want an interesting operating system as much as I want to live next to an interesting nuclear powerplant.

    Operating systems should be boring, they should just handle basic tasks and support whatever program I am running on top of them.

    Calling Recall interesting just makes me want it less, it is one more huge vector of personal information that can and will be mined or breached and then mined.
