My mom's phone display is so damn bright, she's seem to be getting migraines presumably. I had to enable night light even though she's stubborn about it and I tried to explain to her that it turns off during daytime.
Is there anyone here on the fediverse who is a Europe based climate scientist?
Partner is putting together a team for a Horizon Europe application on "Crop Optimization in the face of Climate Change". They're mostly optimization dudes, so they are looking for interested partners from Agriculture and Climate Change.

I was editing a video clip for fun and wanted to export it. But I was having trouble exporting the video properly due to the default format which was h256 MP4. I tried mpeg4 instead and it worked somehow. Maybe it's the compatibility issue with my GPU or OS?

In my opinion, it's generally absurd that (Western) players have a tendency to depend on overpowered tools, strategies, mechanics, or characters to win rather than relying more on their own merit.
I find it to be indicative of American Capitalism where you must 'game' or 'conquer' the system to gain profit or status. There's no merit or integrity involved.
What's odd about the current meta in Battlefield 6 is that people are picking Support, Recon, or Engineer more than Assault. Is it because the latter is currently 'weak' in utility, or is it that the utilities for other roles is overpowered? Usually in other PVP shooters, players tend to pick [DPS] characters more than other roles as well as certain characters who are OP (until they get nerfed).
I find that very ironic.

The argument shouldn't be:
"I don't have anything to hide, so you can surveil me,"
Instead, it should be:
"I don't have anything to hide, so you shouldn't surveil me."

The concept of 'doubling' is fascinatingly scary. Not only in people's emotions and personalities, but by social identities, politics, and morality itself.
I certainly have shadows of my own; my fluctuating and conflicting moods, thoughts, dreams, integrity, etc.
I'm almost finishing the book 'Doppelganger' by Naomi Klein (I only started reading more of the book that I bought years ago). It's a banger book that reveals terrifying truths in poetic and personal ways.

I finally made my own espresso at home using a moka pot. Should have just made an americano by filling it with more hot water, cuz my drink right now is quite bitter lol.
