It sounds like a link can be a file path and clicking the link just opens the file. If that's the case, this is effectively the same risk as filesystem shortcuts.

It bothers me. There are too many things that are either not standards-complient or support different parts of the USB feature set that compatibility is a wildcard. I carry a large backup battery when I travel for work. It can keep my laptop going under load all day, allowing me to not care at all about proximity to outlets when working. It also allows me to painlessly recharge phones by just handing it to someone. Last week, I was running something from someone else’s laptop (enterprise HP, like mine, but different model). It got low, so I pulled out my battery. Plug it in… No power. I could see the voltage fluctuations of it negotiating, but nothing after that.

Look at this nerd with his airline industry operating model jokes. Consumers greatly prefer the kernal-to-kernal operating model.

Pumpkins are a subset of squash. Likely works for any of them.

The only real impacts it has had are making me pay more attention to how I feel and more intentional about how I eat. I’m not going back for seconds just because they are there since I consciously decided that my initial portion was a good amount. I’m also not going a day without eating since it didn’t cross my mind because I can see that little line slowly go down and it reminds me that food is good. Modern tech is amazing. The management of T1D has been reduced to a glance at my phone every once in a while and a couple keystrokes when I eat something. I was talking to someone recently who was diagnosed as a little kid and the stuff that they went through sounded awful. Their adult management of it is no better than mine is for having gone through that.

Sounds similar to the months before my T1 diagnosis at 27. More and more thirsty, less and less hungry. Water would fly through me too, making me suddenly have to pee not long after drinking.
