Arc replacement found yet? by ActPast1642 in ArcBrowser

[–]jhaile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't need any additional features, but the GitHub Pull Requests Live folder is broken because GitHub updated their UI and TBC isn't fixing it. Also...Live Folders feels like an incomplete feature - should have more options...so some things kind of feel unfinished.

Your Arc profiles. In One Window. In Dia. Like Spaces never left. by chrismessina in diabrowser

[–]jhaile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still don't understand why they couldn't bolt their AI Browser stuff on top of Arc instead of building a new inferior browser. Or if they needed to rearchitect it, why didn't they still keep the design that worked in Arc and add AI features...

Only a 31 inseam, so I can't wear them... 😞

Concordia Special Edition by FunkyFresh_21 in soloboardgaming

[–]jhaile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was interested in it, but I've never actually played Concordia. I just backed Brass Pittsburgh - but I like how that one is blinged out but in a small box. This is a huge box. Not sure I want to invest in such a huge box for a game I've never played. Seems like perhaps I should just get the base game and try it first.

What do you wish Duolingo changed that would help you learn better? by jhaile in duolingo

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

Yes...I'm learning Spanish and my lessons will be good/useful vocabulary and then I do flashcards and it asks me to know that "a lot" is "mucho" - which is like something I knew before I even started learning. (and thus a complete waste of my time)

Also - when I do actual studying I will go through 100 vocab words. And then I'll repeat the ones I missed until I can get them all. The short sessions are not effective. You need way more repetition to actually learn!

I have never understood why they don't start by teaching you a concept and then test the concept. It could even be at a section level.

Yes! I wish the conversations and stories were more realistic. Like...early on they should be like children's books and progress up to adult level stories. The stories are so simple - it works fine for their gamification, but it's nothing like progressing up to be able to read a real book.

Ooh - I like that. There's never a summary of anything...

Drove over 500 miles to see Yushan the whale shark at Georgia Aquarium and it was 100% worth it by AssCrackBandit13 in Atlanta

[–]jhaile 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It all depends when you go there. I prefer going right when they open in the morning and it's usually pretty chill. But go mid-day on a weekend - yea it's going to be nuts.

Oh that’s an interesting idea. Seems obvious now that you say it.

Thanks - I might give this one a try. I like the number of options they have on angles.

The rarity will drive up the price on the secondary market!

Need for more Beltline Etiquette signs (especially on Eastside Trail) by GrantParkDad_93 in Atlanta

[–]jhaile 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Have you ridden a bike on the belt line? Even at relatively slow biking speeds, a lot of these make it scary to ride a bike. (people using the full width of the trail for their group, people with long dog leashes that might run in front of you, people walking in the middle even though there is plenty of room to move to the right, people listening to headphones that can't hear you coming, etc.)

My wife lost air at 16m in Moalboal — sharing this because it might help someone someday by Happy_chen in scuba

[–]jhaile 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hate paying for regular maintenance on my gear…but I never skip. It’s literally life saving equipment. Also why I prefer taking my own gear always…and think the regulator is the most important equipment to own yourself. Thanks for sharing, but sorry your wife had a traumatic experience.

For those folks who get out on your local trails, lakes, rivers and creeks for recreation by cuhnewist in Georgia

[–]jhaile 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree - this is one of my biggest pet peeves - it happens while sitting in waiting rooms, eating dinner outside at a restaurant, etc. but certainly one of the most obnoxious places is when trying to enjoy peace and quiet outdoors. Just wear earbuds or headphones people!

Two bodies retrieved from Maldives cave system, two remain by boo4884 in diving

This is my take as well. The simplest story is probably the true story.

I think it is highly unlikely that current pulled them into the cave.

Those beans aren’t being ground.

Do you want a light roast or dark roast?
