The Switch 2 has a new hardware size and some software (like Labo and Ring Fit) has a physical component that is sized to the original Switch/Joy-Con. It could be referring to that.

I think it’s so that they could accommodate a 1080p camera (previous generations were 720p). Looking at other laptops with 1080p cameras, manufacturers have approached this in a few different ways such as a thicker top bezel or a protrusion upwards beyond the rest of the bezel (This shows some computers but is certainly not exhaustive: https://www.adorama.com/lists/laptops-with-1080p-camera). For the MacBook, it’s a reasonable compromise because MacOS has the omnipresent menu bar (except full-screen mode). The top-center portion of the screen isn’t used most of the time. That being said, the height of the menu bar was increased on Macs with the notch, so I’m not sure on the difference in usable space. I would certainly like to see Face ID on the Mac in the future though.

I loved Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tropical Freeze but oh man some of those bonus levels are brutal. I died so many times on Bopopolis. 100%’d both games, but I do not have the patience to get the 200%. I still need to play through the original though – it’s been a while since I last tried.

I didn’t think any devices even adopted Ethernet over HDMI

I wouldn’t be so sure. She has since appeared in a campaign ad with the democratic Missouri senator candidate in the 2022 midterms, moved out of Missouri, and sued the hospital in Kansas for denying care under the EMTALA. Her opinion piece on CNN (https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/27/opinions/emtala-scotus-ruling-emergency-abortion-idaho-farmer/index.html) is particularly harrowing in describing her experience and advocates for federal abortion rights.

A little while back, my hometown’s mayoral election was decided by a difference of just 5 votes. Unfortunately, the candidate I didn’t like won the election. I didn’t live there anymore and wasn’t able to vote, but it really showed me the importance of voting at all levels of government.

Is this a HomeKit camera or are you using third party software? HomeKit allows for defining zones for activity detection (so you could exclude an area) and only sending activity during certain times. If you don’t use HomeKit, maybe your camera software has a similar setting.

Is there a source on this? My initial fact check search suggests this was debunked.

To add on to this having also only been on a ride with partial tilt (Escape from Gringott’s), the track tilting motion is less natural-feeling than the approach into a dive coaster’s holding brake. The seats that are away from the tilt axis aren’t just tilting but also translating around the circular path. Additionally, all seats will experience a vertical hold unlike on dive coasters where the front car gets the steepest decline and the remaining cars are progressively more horizontal. I’ve wanted to ride one of these things since Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 so I’m looking forward to this and Circuit Breaker at COTALand.

Chicago mentioned

Ugh, I can’t believe I forgot about Dragster - rode that one a good 15 years ago!

I didn’t get to ride SkyRider while that was still at Canada’s Wonderland, but it looks like the same model as King Cobra. I wish I could ride a Togo stand-up coaster but I’m not sure when/if that’ll happen.

Some of them just click for me. I struggled a lot with the last two bread-related puzzles haha

Jumblie #259 🟢🔴🔵🟠 4 guesses in 27s

For my initial guess, I try to guess values based on the target color. Beyond that, I admittedly just guess up and down based on the arrows since they coarsely indicate magnitude.

Jumblie #241 🟢🔴🟠🔵 4 guesses in 58s

This one went a lot better than the movies one from yesterday haha

That is how it works. Unwanted tracking notifications only trigger if separated from the owner for some time. It’s possible the paired iPhone was drained or had Bluetooth disabled which would cause the tracker to think it’s separated.

Aw man, the launch on Maxx Force at Six Flags Great America is crazy, and I was really hoping to experience this one since it launched to almost a 50% higher top speed in even less time. I still want to visit this park for Eejanaika but this is sad.

I was really hoping for the first RMC Wild Moose to take Sand Serpent’s spot but I’m looking forward to seeing this one too

I loved this coaster when I rode it last year, but I actually had no issues with the restraints. That being said, it sounds like this will be the same restraints as on Velocicoaster and Pantheon (among others) which are solid so this should be an improvement overall.

I missed out on this park last year during a trip to Pittsburgh because I was a couple weeks too early for rides to open. I’m still hoping to check out Leap the Dips eventually but I’m not sure when I’ll be out there again. Another trip to Kennywood would be fun anyways lol
