As long as we can never fully understand when or how it will turn red, and sometimes when you wrap it in towels it stops being red, I’m all for it.

I know someone personally who can finish multiple thousand-page books in a single day, I’ve always been jealous. They are now a librarian, and I’ve asked them many of the same questions you’re asking.

I recommend getting:

  • the Libby app (and several library cards)
  • a Kindle (or similar device)
  • purchase fresh paperbacks

Figure out which format works best for you.

For me, as I’ve gotten older I’ve found that audiobooks allow me to be the most productive, while consuming books. I still have books I will read on paperbacks, but they allow me to take risks on books I wouldn’t want to dedicate as much time and effort toward.

For me the GOAT is https://around.co/

I haven’t used anything but Around (internally) for the last 5 years, and then someone external sends me a google meet invite or a zoom and I cringe.

So OpenVibe but it isn’t free and doesn’t support Nostr?

Not saying cutting people out is wrong, you do you. But don't you think all of this alienation we are collectively doing is leading to the echo chambers that reinforce bad behaviors?

I have nothing productive to add to your shower thought, so here is evidence of Trump in the ring shaving middle class heads. https://youtu.be/5NsrwH9I9vE

I have an M3 Max that does this, but only when I plug in two monitors at once over Thunderbolt. It doesn’t always happen either, haven’t figured out exactly what is causing it. I know my M1 is only capable of a single external monitor, so part of my suspects their multi monitor support is just poorly implemented over the latest TB spec.

Using M1 with a thunderbolt dock doesn’t do it, so I know it’s not the monitor. Plus switching out one monitor for another doesn’t fix it.

In the past to debug this problem I’ve used BetterDisplay

I use Arch for personal and gaming, Debian for self hosting and hacking, Alpine for containerized cloud deployments.

While it’s true you can’t do it in WASM directly, there are frameworks that interoperate between WASM and JS, such as Yew

One only needs to create an interface between them, since WASM is capable of calling JS functions. DOM manipulation then becomes as simple as calling a function in your language of choice, such as with web-sys

He was doing this way before 2015. Look at the long list of people and businesses he has screwed over since the 80s by not paying his bills.
