Can confirm! Once I started doing this (now mainly with iPython interactive in VSCode) my output speed increased dramatically

My poor country (Moldova) just implemented free lunches for kids in primary and middle schools.

What is the reason US doesn’t have this already at federal level?

I do the same with iOS automations - disable monochrome (and orientation lock) for photos and camera apps, and enable it back once closed.

The benefit is that it re-enables monochrome mode after I might disable it manually.

Eyes do have lots of artefacts, your brain fills in the gaps, like the blind spot [1] It's not much more different than computational photography, really.

One feature of Galaxus that I love and didn’t see anywhere else is that you can sell back on the marketplace the stuff you bought on Galaxus once you don’t need it anymore. Tt facilitates the payment and communication in a very straightforward manner.
Re:The PalmOS powered wristwatch from Fossil on Tuesday May 03, 2022 @04:42AM (#31246074)
The Fossil Hybrid[1] series with the E-ink screens is by far my favorite "smartwatch" right now, and has a ~10 days battery (claimed 2 weeks). Does basic sports, heart and sleep tracking, shows notifications, customisable watchfaces and a bunch of other stuff I don't really care about.

Edit: it shows the time using physical arrows, so you have it accessible 24/24 (they glow at night).
