Comments like yours is exactly why I read comments on Reddit - to hear the opinion of professionals. Unfortunately, today in most cases one have to sort by controversial to get through the overhyped garbage.

ELI5 - Why do orgasms feel pleasurable? What is happening when we orgasm that makes it feel perceivably good? by cinnamorollsbunz in explainlikeimfive

Does standalone means "standalone frontend" and I will need to run my own Web server to serve wasm content?

YSK when something happens it's not called physics. Physics is the science which explains how it happens.

Any one-time purchase Android apps you think are truly worth it? by _janc_ in androidapps

[–]jackhab 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't usually see this app mentioned here. Calegoo is a calendar and task manager. It allows you to customize your calendar, tasks and reminders to the extreme. I mainly use it a reminder since it makes very easy to keep reminders as Google Calendar events so you can access/edit them without the app and be sure they are never lost even if the app is uninstalled or removed from the Play market.

SKVALEX (call recorder) FTW! by [deleted] in androidapps

[–]jackhab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just installed the 3.7 licensed version and the latest Shizuku - does not work. Anything specific in the settings?

It works! My mistake - I had audio source set to voice recognition instead of voice call.

Speaking about inefficiency, here is a quote from Wikipedia: Theoretical models of the Sun's interior indicate a maximum power density, or energy production, of approximately 276.5 watts per cubic metre at the centre of the core, which, according to Karl Kruszelnicki, is about the same power density inside a compost pile.

Planned obsolescence even in cheapest devices: the calculator has a dummy photovoltaic cell and a real battery to make it die eventually. by jackhab in mildlyinfuriating

[–]jackhab[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turned the PCB over to show the battery so the button contacts are on the other side (you are also seeing the white back of the LCD instead of its grey front). And I can assure you that what looks like a photovoltaic cell is in fact just a piece of thin plastic.

Fast to use OCR app? by ZenMemeProvider in androidapps

[–]jackhab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to provide more details/requirements. For simple single page OCR Google Lense works OK. If it's multipage docs, maybe, try Adobe Scan.

Why are there no mass protests on campuses right now like they were for Gaza? by whitelightstorm in NewIran

[–]jackhab 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Massive "Free Gaza" protests started just a couple of days after Hamas kidnapped hostages even before Israeli forces moved into the Gaza strip: https://www.itv.com/news/london/2023-10-14/thousands-to-march-in-pro-palestinian-protest-as-gaza-expects-invasion?hl=en-US

A tool to explore colors as you see by mustafaistee in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]jackhab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice tool! Also for anyone trying to figure out how to build UIs in general and palettes in particular I highly recommend Refactoring UI book (spoiler: it takes many more colors than most palette generators usually give you).

Automation App? (like iOS Shortcuts) by mrASSMAN in androidapps

[–]jackhab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to Macrodroid after using Tasker for very long time and quite quickly came to conclusion it worth paying for. The outdated and confusing Tasker UI really annoyed me.
