I’ve just been enjoying the 84F/29C day and sipping gin & tonics all day. Started with Sipsmith as the gin, but I emptied that bottle and finished with Hendrick’s Flora Adora.

I just found their replacement in store. Check out my other comment below.
A few years ago, Morningstar used to have a vegetarian rib patty. Once I realized its potential as a vegetarian McRib, I bought a pack. It was delicious. I bought another pack.
And then it was gone from shelves in every store that had it.
It’s probably an issue all over, and I hope it gets blocked, for the sake of consumers. Kroger acquired a company called Roundy’s which has a chain called “Pick N Save” in Wisconsin back in 2015. I remember shopping there after and seeing additional tags with products’ prices announcing the “Your New Low”, but prices were higher than pre acquisition. I stopped shopping there after that and noticing a decrease in product/brand diversity.
In response to such critiques, Reddit spokesperson Rathschmidt said he did not “know of an industry benchmark for scoring content quality”.
(Emphasis mine)
This is the same tone deaf response I’ve come to expect from Reddit for some time now, and is why I’m happy to no longer be a user of their platform.
I use a Garmin Venu 2. It’s a “smart enough” watch where it’s not annoying in terms of notifications, but it provides all of the data I could imagine needing relating to my fitness activities. I started using it after Mozilla reviewed Garmin’s stance on privacy.
I also have a Seiko kinetic watch I wear for nice or more formal events.
Soft Skills Engineering: I listen for advice on the non-technical side of software development.
The Greatest Generation: a couple guys who review ST:TNG, DS9 and now Voyager episodes.
Greatest Trek: the above but for new Trek
Fair point. I still feel that it could be better. I’m seeing that I can go to work, be there all day, and come home, and only receive the notification late evening. I’d prefer it to be faster for the sake of those affected by actual stalking.
The pixels seem to have it by default. I don’t have the Apple app, but my phone will tell me the airtag on my keys was following me. It’s pointless though, because it shows up a couple hours after the fact.
Fitbit acquired Pebble, not Garmin, so any of that tech is now with Google.
Garmin devices can be cheap, reliable, and work for a long time. There’s a bit of a community for them online, but I am not aware of any custom firmware.
I use Tidal. I have no issues with the app or anything it recommends to me. In fact, it does a really great job at mentioning new music from bands that I haven’t heard from in a while. Econoline Crush and Filter are 2 that had a recent release that even Apple Music didn’t tell me about, even though I have both bands music in my library with Apple.
I’ve tried to like Spotify, but I just couldn’t get into it. There was just a feeling that it’s not a music first app, but a user data collection app that happens to provide music. I don’t get that feeling with Tidal.
If I had to complain about Tidal for something, it would be the Live feature. I have the toggle off for showing live sessions, but I’d love to just turn it completely off and remove all traces of that feature. No one cares what I’m listening to, and I have no intention of being “social” in my music app.
I enjoy seeing these. I still have the HBO Max “Integration Test Email #1” from 6/17/2021. It’s one of the oldest emails in my inbox, and its presence there motivates me to clear my inbox just to have a giggle.
Clear is now a TSA “vendor” for the precheck process. The machines they use for the sign up process - at least the airport I was at - don’t have the eye scanning camera in the kiosk.
The Clear representative I was asking questions of had said they don’t require eye scans for Clear, though that is the default. People can ask to use just fingerprints, which he said does disrupt the terminal process as the agents don’t think to ask if fingerprints were what was registered when the eye scans fail.
I am not advocating for Clear. I refuse to use them. I simply do want to call out that they are one of 3 who handle the process for the TSA now. People do have a choice of which of the three to use.
