Yep, the video (or possibly the follow up video? don’t remember) goes into this. I’m in a very hard water area, so we fill it, but you’re right, it should depend on hardness.
Which incidentally, is another reason tablets suck.

Posting this as a top level comment as well for visibility.
The tablets are a scam.
Ridiculously detailed video about them here.
The TL;DW is: use powder over tablets, and fill both the main detergent section AND the prewash section (or just throw a little extra powder in loose)
Also, run the hot water before turning it on

This tbh. The tablets are a scam.

this new The Sims game promises to stay true to what The Sims has always been
The Sims 5 will be a free-to-play game.
Uuuuuuh huh. I wouldn’t touch anything EA with a 10 foot pole at this point.
I’ll wait for Paralives thanks.
House flipper, The Sims, Planet Zoo/Planet coaster, Two Point Hospital/Campus, or anything in the creative management genre. Stardew Valley is good, and in the same vein, Graveyard Keeper.
If you have a Switch, Animal Crossing
If she likes Factorio, try Terra Nil maybe?
Also, there’s always minecraft in peaceful mode?
Exactly this. It’s a terrible, outdated story that essentially sells “staying together for the kids.” The whole way through we were both like “ye these two need to get divorced.” The book is a villain.
Eta: game play was fun though
Golden Sun for GBA… except it was taken so I added an I… it’s occasionally taken so sometimes I switch it for a 1 but I hate doing that

Seems dumb, but having your feed interspersed with random happy cows just makes all the terrible headlines less terrible.
Just Cause 3, but I’m honestly a bit tired of it now. I love just wingsuiting around the place and I’ve never found anything else that gives me that same level of catharsis.
I do switch to JC4 occasionally just for a change of scenery, but the wingsuit feels too… floaty? In that one. Idk, just doesn’t feel the same.
I am desperately open to suggestions for something similar in terms of brain off flow state gaming.
It’s fun watching science verify what people have known for centuries
Demand my wfh arrangement be in writing, rather than just a “gentleman’s agreement”
Used it? Yes.
Successfully used it? Not even once.
I replied to “your other comment”.
I meant the one made elsewhere in this thread where I explain why I don’t think it’s a shit argument. I think the wireless is a legitimate upgrade over wired when we’re talking about a mobile phone.
The fidelity is one of many many pros we have listed
I don’t understand what this has to do with anything.
I’m trying to point out that your “pro” of better fidelity doesn’t mean anything in a space where people aren’t using a lossless format, and so aren’t taking advantage of that extra fidelity anyway. This is admittedly an area I’m not strong in, so I could well be wrong, but I don’t think there’s any difference between wired and wireless when the source is Spotify.
you don’t have to choose.
Alright, this is fair. It would be great to keep the option for both. However, I don’t think it’s fair to knock Fairphone for not offering this option though, particularly because it takes space on the pcb and is an extra component cost (yes, a small one, I admit)
People are calling it a money grab move to not include a headphone jack, and I just don’t think that’s fair.
it would be a shit argument
This is fundamentally where we disagree. See my other comment
That is a pro, not a con
Never said it was a con, nor did I mean to imply that jacks are obsolete overall, only that it’s a valid move to not include them on a device that is primarily used to stream audio and thus doesn’t need the extra fidelity. Unless you want to try and tell me that Joe Public should be lugging around gigabytes of flac files?
lick Tim Cook’s boots
Lol, personally I prefer the taste of Han Jong-hee or Kenichiro Yoshida’s boots
jack comes with none.
Respectfully, this is rose tinted glasses talking. Do you know what my wireless buds workflow is?
Compare that to
With wireless buds, I don’t even have to know exactly where my phone is. To say nothing of having to carry it around with me which, if you’re doing housework, or a workout can be a pain.
Also, anyone who’s ever had buds forcibly ripped from their ears because they’ve dropped their phone will tell you:
Wired buds ALSO have drawbacks
Juuust gonna drop this here again
@ClimateAnxietySupport https://kbin.social/m/ClimateAnxietySupport
It’s simply not.
Ye, well, that’s just, like, your opinion man…
But seriously, that highly subjective. I’ll take wireless over wired any day thanks. The inconvenience of having to charge the buds is not actually as bad as you’re making it out to be. You can charge and listen if you consider charging the case as still being charging the whole unit.
The convenience of not having to deal with the damm cables themselves outweighs the inconvenience of needing to occasionally charge them for me, and clearly I’m not alone.
Someone smarter than me can talk about audio quality over wireless, but when we’re talking about streaming music from Spotify, it’s moot anyway.
The fact is, for the vast majority of mobile users, wireless is an upgrade over wired.
Look, I do understand, and it took me a while to buy into the wireless buds thing, but you could have made the same argument for PS/2 mouse and keyboards, or anything using mini, and then later, micro USB.
The fact is, if you want to keep your old peripherals, but upgrade your main compute device, at some point you need to accept that you’ll need an adapter.
The 3.5mm jack was first introduced in the 1950s as a mini version of the 6.5mm jack… which was used as far back as 1878… it’s had a hell of a run, but if you weigh the pros and cons fairly, wireless as a standard has drawbacks, but is actually, ultimately an upgrade and it’s well overdue.
I just think there are enough wireless options (and adapters) available now that it’s not fair to knock fairphone for this decision anymore.
Is this a fair argument in 2023 with all the options for wireless headphones/buds? I feel like it still sucks because you can’t use your dollar store wired sets, but there are enough cheap raycon clones out now that it’s hardly a guaranteed secondary sale at this point.
Lol, I meant another month before I can get tested. I was back at it the next day.
Lol, did you watch the updated video? The only thing he got wrong really was that you don’t necessarily need to fill the dispenser, depending on how hard your water is. The rest of the advice remains the same.
