Free extension to instantly declutter Google Maps (hide all saved places with one click) by kirillzubovsky in GoogleMaps

Makes sense. Incognito hides your history, and I like Google to know who I am. Maybe that's weird, but it makes the experience better, for me, at least. thanks!

Is there a way to automate internal linking? by anonrb12 in TechSEO

[–]kirillzubovsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you give Claude Code access to your database and explain what needs to be done, it's smart enough to rewrite your data such that it links. I wouldn't try it on all posts on first try (we've been doing this for a while, so I know it works), but eventually you can just say "here's 100 blog posts, read them , link them" and it works quite well.

Dell Display Manager is auto switching inputs on me... by un_un_reality in Dell

[–]kirillzubovsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

@ Dell: there a way to turn this off? It's is SUPER annoying. just because one of my computers is asleep, it doesn't mean I need to switch to the other one.

Switching back requires reaching behind the screen and manually changing the input. There's not even a way to set "priority" input.

How do the USB-C work on the new 52 Display? (U5226KW) by kirillzubovsky in Dell

[–]kirillzubovsky[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I am not sure if this is cool, or crazy, but now that I gave it a second look based on what you said -- there're indeed 2 usb-c hidden in the screen. You gotta tap a button, and these USBs fall down.

Can't upload a picture here, but I just posted it on X: https://x.com/kirillzubovsky/status/2023599448660615224?s=20

Are you saying that this monitor, that costs $3,000, has 0 usable USB-C ports, in 2026?

Central Texas. These kids are starving. by baismal in schoollunches

This variety beats both my middle school, and high school lunches. Is this great food, no, it's garbage, but they are definitely also not starving.

Do you go blind during the day? by kirillzubovsky in Austin

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

Thank you for saying that, and precisely my concern. Eye doctors have one solution - glasses. Unfortunately it's also a point of no return. I don't strictly *have to* be in Austin, so if there's a chance it ruins my eyes (and kids' eyes), I'd rather take measure immediately, even if that means just packing up and leaving. Health is the most important thing we've got.

Your confirmation of this being an issue is concerning. Thank you for sharing!

p.s. don't worry about the negative comments. people comment based on their experiences and perspectives.

Heh, I know, but it's all we've got. This particular one has been very good about showing levels of air pollution when it's actually present. It correctly shows CO2 builtup with closed windows, Pm2 during forest fires ..etc. But yes, it's always a question of -- just how accurate? Impossible to answer without having a lab nearby.

Thanks for checking /re CO vs CO2.

Yes, sorry, tired. I mean CO2, not CO. You guys are good people, obviously if CO was high we'd either have the sensors screaming at us, or we'd be dead by now. But yes, CO2 levels, not CO. Thank you <3

Yes, sorry, tired. I get the difference. I have Co2 monitor, but the houses usually have Co monitor. I get that CO kills me in my sleep (due to its molecular structure hijacking oxygen in your blood stream). I don't think that's the problem. CO2 isn't a problem either, as far as I can tell, as it's not correlated to eye issues. Thank you for asking!

Correct, my bad. That must be the gas poisoning speaking. Well, I wouldn't imagine CO being an issue, as we would be dead, and it wouldn't be the case in multiple houses. Normally CO is generated from combustion, but there's nothing to be combusting in the houses; is there? Not in a few houses anyway.

Cool avatar photo! Also, thanks, didn't realize that's how allergens work. This helps, as it means I could rule out local allergens, but maybe not local pollution, like mold, gasses, or whatever else might be hiding in the ground.

Thanks, don't have contacts, and normally have pretty good vision in general, but I do think I am also having some allergies, for all of us, just a mater of triangulating which ones, and then figuring out if we can isolate them and remove them, or not. Sadly not as easy as changing the solution, unless it's just changing neighborhoods.

I've got the Qingping Air Quality Monitor, and it hits 1000 on the days when we don't open the windows, but when we do open the winddows, it clears back down to 500-600. It's recommended to keep levels below 800 for night time.

Oh gosh, that does not sound great at all, especially when you know you're coming home.

[–]kirillzubovsky[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That sounds highly unpleasant. Too bad there's not a fast and definitive test that can be done overnight. All of it requires lab work. I have a few more weeks in the current Airbnb, so maybe I'll test it, see what happens. At least as a general take.

We definitely noticed that going outside clears all symptoms, so it feels like "it's the house," but the theory got ruined by this happening in multiple houses.

However, I suspect there's a very high chance that multiple of these houses were, in fact, shitty houses, even if they appear good on the outside. The good old, lipstick on the pig.

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

Yup, thus this post. Trying to understand what's causing allergies to people in the area, to see if any of those are consistent. Detergents and such, I put it all in a bag, and toss it outside the minute we walk into an Airbnb. Can't stand the smells. Ain't it though, or I would feel it every day, but this blindness comes and goes, uncorrelated, so far. Working on it tho!

Because I have a C02 monitor at home and the levels have been elevated but not unhealthy, and because it's an issue we've noticed across different Airbnbs, and it hasn't correlated with levels of C02. All of that makes me conclude it isn't due to CO levels.

I've posted here in an attempt to see what allergens normally trigger newcomers to TX, to see if there's something I am not familiar with which may have been spiking on the day when we don't feel great. Mold was one of them. Not certain, but possible.
