Elder millennial here

Yeah. But she wanted to carry a really small purse that wouldn’t be able to hold the foldable :(

After an impromptu upscale bar/lounge crawl with the wifey the other day…

A shoe that can easily go back and forth from high heel/wedge to comfortable flats w/o much, if any, tooling or carrying around extra parts. She also brought a clutch purse

Wifey was dead the next day from foot pain of walking between places.

It is a religious practice for Jews … I completely agree with your point of it being a “health fad” for non-jews though.

Ask any Dr who fan. The BBC did this as well back in the day…

More popular, more commercially successful, and more accessible to casual fans. Agreed.

But for magnum opus, I gotta agree with the wall for a few reasons

1. They made a movie out of it
2. The ode to the intense para social relationships that revolve around stardom and how a truly crazy creative can take advantage of it in scary ways was not only true back then, but predictive of how much worse it would get in current time.
3. DSotM always seemed like a lot of good ideas in an unordered list. I felt like they could be scrambled and the album would be similar, except for the first and last songs… Meanwhile the wall tells a story of pain, alienation, search for meaning, lashing out, and then a quest for self-forgiveness.

Regardless, I switched off brave because I was tired of getting ads in the browser. Been using ff for a while now

Mine also allows you to see each voicemail in your acct inbox and play/delete/call back each one like a song on a media player.

There’s still the cell providers limit on how many voicemails are allowed though. Better to use Google voice and have unlimited voice mail

I’ve tried this. Guy next to me was playing a video game on full blast that I can hear over my noise cancelling headphones. I asked him if he could turn the sound down.

He said “F you! This is my console. I do what I want! You’re the only one complaining so shut the f up”…

(looks around)

(To neighbor) psst who’s gonna tell this guy that unbreakable not only got a sequel. It’s start of a trilogy. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unbreakable_(film_series)

(Neighbor to me) I think he’s being sarcastic…

It basically copies the best of every other messaging platform. I was at my in-laws where everyone on my wife’s side has an iPhone and we’re talking about a LOT of the features.

• can tell if notifications are turned off on phone
• read receipts
• higher quality limit on video/pictures sent
• messaging that can be done in wifi-only areas (imagine having a few group threads/people you CANT talk to while at home because you live in a dead zone)

Any other big feature of any other messaging app I was able to think of (Signal/Whatsapp, discord, slack) is all there (except public chatrooms and private servers obvs), WITH OS integration

I still like my pixel, but I get it now.

Still holding out hope that Google allows for RCS features to come to Google voice.

This and caffeine

Wife thinks I’m being lazy bc I crash and don’t help with baby on weekend mornings … I call her lazy when she falls asleep after I put the toddler to bed on weekdays.

We have a happy marriage.

Right, I get that. I’m just thinking that the song isn’t about racism. Other than the fact that he’s black and has the black man’s blues. If the song was talking about his life as a black man or how he ended up a bum that would be different. But it’s the way a child sees a black guy with killer guitar playing skills. Very innocent

Call me naive, but I always thought Curtis Lowe was about society not respecting bums who play good music for beer/wine money aka the starving artist. Even though the protagonist loved him as a mentor/entertainer.

Racism or the fact that he was black wasn’t the main factor in the issues the protagonist is singing about, just that he happened to be black… though I’m betting it didn’t help the way people/protagonist’s mom viewed the two of them spending so much time together

I always say him as an inspiration to Bleeding Gums Murphy and Lisa in the Simpsons.

Just my 2 cents. I agree with the rest of your list though.

Similarly, I dated a woman named Annie a few years back. Everyone of my geekier friends, when I introduced her, asked, “are you ok? Are you ok Annie?”!

Right. If the 20 teens and 20’s taught me anything, it’s that everyone has a story going on behind their eyes and they’re always the main character/hero in their own story.

Worked at a medium sized retail startup as a software engineer where we didn’t have root access to our local laptops, under the guise of “if you fuck it up we won’t be able to fix it” but we only started out with a basic MacBook setup. so every time I wanted to install a tool, ide, or VM I had to make a ticket to IT to come and log in with the password and explain what I was doing.

Eventually, the engineering dept bribed an IT guy to just give us the password and started using it. IT MGMT got pissed when the number of tickets dropped dramatically and realized what was going on.

We eventually came to the compromise that they gave us sudo access with the warning “we’re not backing anything up. If you mess up we’ll have to factory reset the whole machine”. Nobody ever had to factory reboot their machine because we weren’t children… And if there was an issue we just fixed it ourselves

Yeah. My wife has an iPhone and we drive a lot. Thinking to not have to deal with the wires on the dashboard would be great.

Accubattery works for me on my p7p. It defaults to alerting you at every %point after 80. But you can change it to 100

There’s a few permissions you have to give it, which I don’t remember the precise names, but it basically wants to know how much power other apps are using and allows to always be on “no optimized” is the wording I think.

And I didn’t upgrade to pro

Thanks for the suggestion.

There wasn’t a screen protector for yours right? How is the magsafe though?

Mous was one of the vendors that’s only magsafe from what I saw … Hoping I missed something.
