"Vocal fry", aka "creaky voice". It's stereotypically associated with irritating young women.
I like me a good rabbit hole that's interesting and also digs into stereotypes.
Turns out, like many memes, it's not just that. It's (also?) a normal speech pattern, used by different genders, ages, and social groups, in many languages.
This doesn't mean that vocal fry isn't used as social signaling. But complaining about it, well, isn't that social signalling too?
The tv remote sensor stopped working (and broke again after servicing), so now the only way to use the TV is by the LG app on my phone.. which asks for permissions to Nearby Devices, Location, Camera, Microphone, Notifications, Phone, Music&Audio...
This remembers me of the Modbook, back in... check notes... 2008? I'm old. They would take a Macbook, re-case it and transform it into a tablet. Super cool. Looks like they kept doing this for a few iterations.
Not sure if it adds anything, but a factoid I know is that CD timing is expressed in minutes, seconds, and frames, where each frame is 1/75th of a second.
I'm not sure but I think this is also the smallest time resolution.
Then each frame is composed of samples, but they seem to be counted in groups of 1/75th os a second anyway.
I'm on a 36gb M3 and I have to reboot it every three to five days to have it behave again.
I have normal dev apps open: a browser with jira, another with testing, another with documentation, an ide, teams, calendar, zoom.. it adds up very, very quickly. 16gigs are gone in the blink of an eye
adults passengers can adapt the conversation to your needs, keeping quiet and even helping with decisions.
screens, kids, dogs, people on the phone, etc can't do that
Bolsonaro termed "far right" seems to be on the mark though. The guy praises military dictatorship, with many military figures in his government. He targeted the press and judiciary as enemies of the nation, and so on.
Lula hasn't nationalized industries, hasn't seized wealth, or even tried to, so "far left" doesn't seem to be as fitting. Where are the burnt churches?
Now, about corruption, I'm pretty sure neither shine, but that's Brazil for you. Wasn't the Bolsonaro family found to have bought around 50 properties in cash? Smells about as corrupt as the other side, sadly.
The more frequently you are stopped by the police, the greater the chance they will find something to charge you with.
Since people of color are stopped more often by police, they face a higher likelihood of being charged.
macOS also does show desktop and apps for half a second when I reopen the lid, before falling back to showing the login prompt. super annoying. (M3 MacBook Pro, so reasonably new)
DNA analysis can be used to profile you. Health risks, ancestry, genetic conditions. This could be used to deny insurance coverages and employment opportunities due to perceived health risks.
DNA analysis is rapidly evolving to extract more information than you might initially assume. We don't know how much or how accurately DNA can be used do infer your preferences, moral instincts, aggressive tendencies, intelligence, propensity to fall victim of a scam, to become addicted, to act violently, etc.
DNA also provides insights into the genetic makeup of family members, which can face the same problems.
