If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.
Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing? 2? Questions I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up. Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?

It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

“No one uses the bike lanes!”

“Actually, they do—just efficiently…You might not see it jammed with riders at rush hour like a car lane because—surprise!—bike lanes work. They move people quickly and cleanly. You just aren’t sitting behind them idling.”

See article for more anti-bike comebacks.

“We can’t all be expected to bike.”

Fair. But that’s not the point.

“Not everyone can or wants to bike. But some people can & do—and they deserve a safe, efficient, affordable way to move through the city. It’s about freedom of choice.”

This & other useful comebacks, in @momentummag.bsky.social.

RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.

Warum kostet das Parkpickerl nicht genauso viel?

Ich bin ein Depp und fahr öffentlich und irgendein Herbert mit sein SUV parkt auf 4qm öffentlichen Raum 80% seiner Zeit und zahlt 10€ im Monat. Was soll diese Scheiße?

Der Parkpickerl Preis wird ab nächstem Jahr um 3 Euro im Monat erhöht.

Hab das zum Anlass genommen die Mietpickerl Seite upzudaten: Mieten in Wien, günstig wie Parken.

According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150K trees have been planted & 45ha of parks created in the already hot city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to & manage summer heatwaves of 50℃ (122F) by 2050.

Just the start.

Common sense.

Please enjoy this Klimt Eastwood
The image is a piece of fan art titled "Klimt Eastwood," created by Carl Tétreault in 2016. It depicts actor and director Clint Eastwood in a style inspired by the Austrian Symbolist painter Gustav Klimt, specifically referencing Klimt's "The Kiss".

Funfact aus Utrecht: Hier ist das Fahrrad so beliebt, dass die Stadt gegen das ausufernde Fahrradparken ankämpft und überall kostenlose Parkhäuser anbietet. Die Stadt verhandelt sogar mit einer Mall, um aus einem Auto- ein Fahrradparkhaus zu machen. Ein Zeichen, wie sehr das Fahrrad hier König ist😊

An mehreren Punkten in Aschaffenburg sind in der vergangenen Woche Fahrräder mit solchen Zetteln dran aufgetaucht. Das ist natürlich ein Skandal, denn sonst halten dort Autos, natürlich nur mal kurz.
Ein Mountainbike mit einem daran angebrachten Zettel, auf dem "Bin nur mal kurz in der Apotheke" steht, wurde auf einer befahrenen Straße abgestellt. Im Hintergrund weichen Autos dem Fahrrad aus.

One of the coolest features of the Agami Heron is its gorgeous, flowing crest that flutters as it poses and preens. But I've never seen it up close before with the details and textures.

A tall, elegant bird with a long, pointed bill stands among lush green foliage. Its pale blue head feathers drape down its neck like streamers, and its chest displays a striking pattern of fine, dark lines over a white base.

DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT.
CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open.
DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open.
CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are.
DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

welp I sent an email
Hi Tripp, I'm a reporter with the Guardian US, based in New York. I hope this finds you well. I'm reaching out about your most recent article and its inclusion of the claim, "Young Chinese women have small fingers." What is the source of this information? The full sentence attributes the claim that such small fingers make them "nimble" and therefore "valuable" to iPhone manufacturing to unnamed "supply chain experts", but it's unclear whether those same experts are the source of the claim that young Chinese women have small fingers in the first place. Are they? How do they know? Is there a study you can cite? And are we talking length? Circumference? Is it question of muscle strength? Or bone density? What is the normative range for finger size, to what extent do young Chinese women fall outside of it, and how do you - or your sources - know this? Incidentally, how are you defining "Chinese" in this sentence? As I'm sure you and your supply chain experts know, China is a large country with dozens of ethnic minorities. It is hard to imagine that hand size is a trait linked to national identity, but the lack of specificity leaves the question open. Did hand size among Han Chinese living in Taiwan vs the PRC diverge after the civil war? Could this be a function of political economy rather than a genetic trait? So many questions. Relatedly, how are you defining "young"? Do Chinese women's fingers grow as they age? Or is size not actually the meaningful characteristic? It's hard to tell from the information you provided! I ask all these questions because unless you have answers to them, I am afraid that you may have portrayed racist pseudoscience as if it were fact in an article for the New York Times. If that wasn't your intent, I hope you will reflect upon the long history of certain forces using race science claims to attribute suitability for certain types of labor to certain types of people, and amend your article. Best, Julia Wong
