When viewing any feed or a single post, if I do a quick scroll up from further down the feed/post and my scrolling action hits the top, this will trigger a refresh even when I hadn’t intended on doing that.

Oof. Seeing Untitled Goose Game on this list makes me sad. My 8yo and I both (still) adore that game, and I’d hate for our future enjoyment of the game to contribute to any gouging of the devs.
Presidents are getting older and older. Former President Donald Trump was the oldest person to assume office when he was sworn in on Jan. 20, 2017, and President Biden broke that record four years later. If either is elected again next year, at ages 78 and 81, respectively, they will be older than the previous record holder,...
Hi all My kid will get a gaming pc soon. I can’t swallow the cost of a whole setup at the moment. I’m thinking of getting a good motherboard with a decent second hand graphics card (a colleague I trust can find me one). And over time upgrade where needed. For monitor I would be using my TV....
No harm in trying it first. Beyond basic connectivity, here are some things you’ll need to check for.
You’ll want to make sure you can turn off overscan in your TV settings or the edges of what the computer will display will be cut off in the image. This can make navigating things like the Windows desktop a little difficult.
Then you’ll want to make sure responsiveness is acceptable. Perform any action (click something, type something in Notepad, etc.) and make sure the TV displays it instantly. If not, you will need to enable Game Mode on your TV if it is available. Sometimes a Sports mode will get you there too. If such a mode isn’t on your TV and there are no other settings that reduce the response delay, you’ll need a dedicated monitor.
If you’re OK on both of these things, the only thing left would be stuff like resolution and color matching. For the best image, make sure the computer is set to use the TV’s native resolution. This may not necessarily be the highest resolution available, FYI. As an example, I have TVs that are 720 native but will accept and display 1080, albeit things don’t look great at that scale. Your mileage may vary. For color matching, don’t worry too much about accuracy if you’re not doing things that require a perfectly calibrated display. Set the picture mode on the TV to whatever vivid/movie/sports/etc color mode works for you, but keep in mind some of these can affect the delay depending on the TV (see above).

I installed the official Reddit app and went on it to see what the old place was looking like now. My inbox was filled with spam. The “home feed” shows subs I never subscribed to. There are so many ads. Between the ads and the the extra subs in the feed, it’s hard to just scroll. I also noted a lot of spam in some of the...
I made a new account and was immediately bombarded with posts from subs on the account I deleted months ago, suggesting them because Reddit knew I visited them in the past.
I want to get back into creative writing, and for work I prefer to take handwritten notes (I have my own weird shorthand and it helps with retention). I’d also like the ability to write at night and not disturb my partner....
I love my reMarkable 2, but I bought it before they locked all the best features behind their subscription. I’m grandfathered into a lifetime subscription, but if you buy one now you also have to cough up whatever subscription cost the Connect plan provides for persistent cloud storage and a few other useful features. For that sole reason I can’t recommend it.
If I was shopping for a device today, I’d be looking at one of the Supernotes.
I’m a 3D printing wanna-be, not even an amateur. Have seen a few printers, helped assemble one long time ago, played with the software a little, though I have never actually printed anything myself yet. I decided to spend some saved money on a printer for myself....
My first was an E3P but I might not recommend it for folks not willing to spend time tinkering and tuning. Creality makes great printers and once they’re dialed in they put out great quality prints, but they most definitely don’t “just work” out of the box. Prepare to spend time and frustration making tweaks and adjustments to get it working just right.
