If sunrise and sunset is your thing then the website suncalc.net works great to find what places will have the best views for different times of year.

I go watch the sunset as part of my solstice and equinox adventures so finding new places with nice views is fun.

I use the AR tool for sun positions every time I’m finding a tent spot or to watch a sunrise/set, and the bubble level is perfect for finding a tent spot that isn’t tilted 2 degrees towards your head so you wake up with a headache.

When google asked if I wanted to try Gemini I gave it a try and the first time I asked it to navigate home, something I use assistant for almost daily, it said it can’t access this feature but we can chat about navigating home instead - fuck that!

Even though I switched back to assistant it’s still getting dumber and losing functionality - yesterday is asked it to add something to my grocery list(in keep) and it put it on the wrong list, told me the list I wanted doesn’t exist, then asked if I wanted to create the list and then told me it can’t create it because it already exists.

I’ve talk to more logical toddlers!

It really depends on what I’m doing to elicit the comment - I’m often doing silly things, getting enthusiastic about stuff, exploring my environment and other things vaguely “childish” and so would consider cute to be a compliment.

Coming with no context it’s neutral, way better than being called sexy but generally my appearance doesnt need comment.

If I’m upset, or being professional, or an authority than being called cute is 100% and insult.

I pull my card out to tap, though it’s just habit from pre-tap and I probably wouldn’t need to. I leave NFC off on my phone or it tends to keep detecting my cc and chime.

My EDC is

1. A pixel phone with a case on it, in the case I tuck my driver’s licence and one credit card. I have a wallet app on the phone for all other cards I might need.

2. Keychain is a carabiner and short piece of webbing holding 2 house keys, car fob, mini knife and mini flashlight.

The keys clip onto bra strap and go inside my shirt and phone tucks into bra. Definitely not a fella :P

“outlaws” also being a verb makes this title difficult to understand

I just finished reading “The Anxious Generation” by Jonathan Haidt on how hard it is for parents to police kids self-destructive phone use and tech companies aren’t willing to do anything to help because it’s so profitable to advertise to them and sell their data, this feels like another step down that road.

ASL has very different structure to spoken/written English, so not everybody who signs is going to comprehend English grammar as fluently/easily or the nuance of all the words that don’t have a sign equivalent.

Additionally ASL communicated who is talking and the tone of their words, even when the speaker is off screen, which just can’t be captured by captioning. Closed captioning has just caught on to using slightly different colors to indicate the speaker, so you know who’s talking offscreen. I’ve only seen this in British panel shows so far but it’s helpful.
