Oh, many years ago I had a baby monitor that included a pressure mat. If it detected no movement for a while (it was sensitive enough to detect breathing) it set off an alarm.
Although if such a thing exists today, it probably requires an app and a subscription. Enshitification.
Looks like the pixel watch 3 can do something like this, but it only calls emergency services (and plant l only in some regions!)
I see some end in a thin pin or are short. I was thinking of the ones that are the full size of a plug, of course.
Try “3.5mm dust plug”.
They should disconnect the speaker if the socket is the type when the plug physically pushes a connection apart.
I think that phones may handle it all electronically.
Web browser? “app”. Web page? “app”. Dialog box? “app”. Phone app that’s just a thin shell for the web site? “appapp”.
I think I heard “applet” being mentioned for embedded java or something in the early 2000s. I don’t know if that’s connected.
Well storing that would only take half a bit.
I use rsync.net
It’s not the lowest price, but I like the flexibility of access.
For instance, I was able to run rclone on their servers to do a direct copy from OneDrive to rsync.net, 400Gb without having to go through my connection.
I can mount backups with sshfs if I want to, including the daily zfs snapshots.
Don’t get it confused with a dating site.
Caravan parks are usually a form of vacation home (often rented out by the owner) so although they sound like a trailer park, they don’t have the connotations of “trailer trash”.
The parks are often in a resort-like setting, with video arcades, bike rental, mini golf, cafes and clubs.
The clubs can be family-oriented so it’s not unusual to have kids there too.
Here’s where I spent several happy childhood trips, feeding 10p’s into arcade machines: there’s an arcade next to the club. The family would spend each evening in the club which had a bar and live entertainment every night (I mean songs, comedy etc, not erotic dancers).

Looking at it now, it does have a low-budget vibe (there were communal washrooms, no toilet or shower in our caravan!), but as a kid, I loved it.

Physicist: “assuming a spherical year …”
Can’t spell “functional” without “fun”!
Whichever version it is, I hope that one day I can delete a mail, change my mind, press ctrl-z and it will actually undo the last delete and not some random one from earlier in the day.
Some of the American English words used by young people sounds confusing, but are just abbreviations: “riz” for charisma.
Others, I don’t know where they came from: “yeet” to mean throw.
Skeptoid.
For one thing, Facebook will happily decide that you don’t need to see posts from them, so it’s a terrible way to communicate.
Scott Manley said in his video that it would almost certainly increase right up to a point where it would (probably) drop to 0.
Imagine the asteroid position is going to be in a range 1 to 100. Earth will be at position 31 when passes. That’s a 1% chance.
Now I tell you that it’s actually a 10 to 90 range ( like they predict the asteroid a bit more precisely).
The chance is now 1 in 80 or 1.25% It went up!
Now I say I’ve got more info, the number is 30 to 70. The chance is 1/40, 2.5% time to panic, it’s getting worse!
Next it’s 40 to 70. That doesn’t include 31. The chance just dropped to 0.
So the increase is showing a more accurate prediction still includes hitting earth, but at some point that prediction might show that it will miss.
BASIC uses (used?) it to declare variables. (I don’t know if earlier languages did.)
Not that that’s a reason for other languages to copy it.
