Re: Odd Facts You've Just Learnt
I've no idea where to put this as I didn't want to fuk up the book thread but also didn't want to put in Brexit or rant thread
But anyway.
People are mad at JK Rowling for liking a tweet that says trans-women are 'men in dresses'.
I guess I didn't figure that she'd thought that way, what with her retconing Dumblydore as a gay man with an evil wizard boyfriend.
Maybe now millennials wont read Harry Potter anymore and read other stuff and Philip Pullman can reclaim his rightful modern YA-fiction throne.

Nickelodeon has parted ways with producer Dan Schneider.
This guy is heavily rumoured to be a pedo to the point that it's become a meme.
Hard to know if any of it is true but makes you

Jeem, that picture is clearly a beagle.
I don't know who that is so I am going to ascribe blame to Rob Schneider instead.One-armed dwarf wrote: ↑Tue Mar 27, 2018 6:19 pmNickelodeon has parted ways with producer Dan Schneider.

Bone Conduction Headsets
Only just found out about these, they use vibrations through the top of your jawbone area to allow you to hear sound (like a voice in your head) whilst leaving your ears free (they use a wraparound headstrap).
Anybody tried them out, any recommendations?

Re: Odd Facts You've Just Learnt
This is interesting: https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout
You can order a big archive of all the data google have on you. Or at least that which they're willing to give you.
I just got my archive processed. It is 32 GB.
That seems big.
edit: OK, part of why it's so large is it's got episodes of Dragon ball in there that I uploaded to Plex.
Yeah maybe I should move that shit out and store it away from google
They also have a big file called locationHistory.json which knows everywhere I've been in the past 2 years (when I got my phone).
Down to the millisecond

Re: Odd Facts You've Just Learnt
Mine also has all the videos I've uploaded to youtube. FFXIV raids and the Devil May Cry stuff I've been recording. No wonder it's so large.
Also that stuff where they detect if you are walking or running or cycling is interesting. Can they detect.... other stuff?
