yeah, that's fair. I can't tell just by looking at the graphics and then I just feel anxious (especially in situations like when I need to be reachable or when navigating around a city). I understand everyone's brain is different

Well, the Jeff Geerling stuff is disappointing. I watched him only occasionally when some video title interested me, but I don't think I can watch the videos (and so indirectly support him) in good conscience.

The fact he didn't apologise is telling, especially in the context of his replies:

But as you may witness in the discourse surrounding these posts, modern social media discourse leads to a lack of charity and understanding.

The idea of one-upping someone online, ratioing someone's post, or getting quick wins through rage-bait is antithetical to what builds a just, loving, and charitable society. I see it tear apart many online communities. The only winning move is not to play.

This is a pretty old article on the site, and I'm guessing by the title (haven't read through it) it would not be deemed 'culturally appropriate' these days.

Yep, completely stopped making videos. He works on An Old Timey Podcast with his wife now (quite fun, actually).

Ugh, I don't understand why it usually defaults to no number. Then I have to go and change the setting, show me numbers - I actually want to know how much battery I've got left... I don't understand why would anyone want it off, but to each their own.
