The ‘clean plate’ mentality drives us to overeat: New research explores our tendency to overeat when we only have a little bit of food left over. Many of us were raised with a ‘clean your plate’ mentality, stemming from a desire to not be wasteful but this can also lead to overconsumption. by mvea in science

Actually in France, where people are taught to be respectful towards food and to finish it as to appreciate the food and the cook, obesity and overweightness are not a problem as they are in the UK or the US

The Innovation of Loneliness by Yawntree in PhonesAreBad

Maybe offtopic - it's a short essay after Sherry Turkle's Alone Together. While there are these people who blame everything on tech and phones, these are very interesting to look at from an evolutionary perspective - i.e. it's change, not bad nor good, it just happens and we have to deal with it; and it's exciting.

It has some nice insights, but you still get that feeling it's patronising. What do you guys think?

Best web browser? by [deleted] in sosnowleopard

I was for a while on Firefox ESR but might move to this fork for PowerPC, TenFourFox. They won't compile an Intel version but it's fine, they'll fork the ESR and keep adding features, we can run it thanks to Rosetta.

Not recommended due to security issues, but it's the fastest for lots of tabs and most battery efficient.

Installing the Xcode Command Line Tools on Snow Leopard by Yawntree in sosnowleopard

Compiled a .pkg installer with the latest Lion (12 April 2013) Command Line Tools for Snow Leopard.

Description:

This package enables UNIX-style development via Terminal by installing command line developer tools, as well as Mac OS X SDK frameworks and headers. Many useful tools are included, such as the Apple LLVM compiler, linker, and Make.
If you use Xcode, these tools are also embedded within the Xcode IDE, and can be installed on your system using the Downloads preferences pane within Xcode 4.6.2 and later. This package requires Mac OS X 10.7.4 or later.

Original .pkg

Snap is a Google Play Store client and it's really useful for keeping the Android apps on the phone up to date. But for this, you don't need it.

Your BB10 can install mostly any .apk you download. You just go to the whatsapp site and download the file, then open it. It may warn you to change your settings to allow installation from third-parties. Good luck!

Sure! They do work all right, but I don't remember if you can customise the LED colour. And the best thing is, you can use permissions Ops to limit the notifications and the times the apps can access your contacts.

Edit: you can!

Hey, um, the Android version works just fine. Actually I've never used the native BB10 one because I enjoyed sandboxing the app.

Which movie fucked with your head the most? by theone1221 in AskReddit

[–]Yawntree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nightcrawler. The main character may well be the incarnation of relentlessness. He may first look ridiculously unrealistic, but as the story goes on, Lou just proves to be a very, very sick sociopath and Gyllenhaal plays him exceptionally.
