My local Whole Foods (Union Sq NYC) has become an absolute mess since the Amazon buyout. The shelves sometimes look like there’s been a bout of hurricane panic buying, they’re so empty. The produce has gone downhill sharply (like those crappy bananas that never seem to ripen properly and go from green to black with…

The only problem I have with Windows 10 is that since recent update, they have added a stupid, ill thought out feature - on by default and non-optional - which restores all of your open apps when you reboot. It’s like they didn’t even stop to consider how much trouble this would cause people, especially since they…

Sigh, it doesn’t seem like 5 minutes since I made a comment claiming that Apple deliberately throttles phone performance and was swamped with replies from smug techies insisting that it was all a paranoid myth which had been debunked over and over. Happy times.

Add a little coconut water to your almond milk, both in the smoothie and as a tasty drink. It’s heaven. You’re welcome.

And it gives you moobs...

I don’t care if almond milk is lacking in protein or what-have-you. As long as it’s not actually harmful, I’ll continue using it as a tasty alternative to milk in my coffee. I’m quite capable of getting my require nutrients from food, thanks. No need to fatten me up with milk, I’m not a calf.

They should have concentrated on stability and bugs instead of new features a long time ago. Kind of reminds me of the audio production software I use, Sonar. The developers went the way of trying to entice people in with brand new features every release cycle, which of course were developed at the cost of…

My dad would frequently come home with boxes of mysterious goods we couldn’t work out why he’d bought. Like wholesale boxes of custard powder etc. Wasn’t until I was older I realized they were probably never “bought” lol. I mean who buys that much custard powder.

Man Whole Foods has gone downhill sharply since Amazon took over. Their stores are a shambles. Empty shelves, poor quality produce (like those horrible bananas that never ripen properly), no bags in the produce section etc. The one I go to was always badly managed but since Amazon - wow.

That’s the most well designed sarcasm meter I have ever seen!

Let’s add to those the endless stream of virtually unheard of “motivational speakers” with millions of followers. I swear every second person who follows me on Twitter is one of these bozos.

Oh well, there’s always pop.

Yeah I guess if you’re drawing a full circle it’s from the shoulder. But for curve segments it’s generally from the elbow.

It’s not for the same reason. The alternate picking of a lead guitarist involves a very specific and narrow range of motion - they’re oscillating a pick back and forth across a tiny distance and have to do it at high speed. For this purpose, movement from the wrist is best. But they will still move their forearm from…

Well you’re wrong about that. Ever try lentil sprouts?

Honestly these guys are idiots. Raw sprouts are a minefield, very easy to get sick from them if they’re not stored correctly. That alone would be enough to prevent me from putting them on the menu in the first place. But these guys.....these guys....not only do they put them on the menu, but they put them back on the…

Actually the best way to improve your handwriting is to write from the elbow, not the wrist. You have far more control over lines and curves when you move the arm from the elbow.

You know what? When I die, just roll me up in an old carpet and throw me on the dump. I really couldn’t care less.

Cooool story: Back when I used to walk dogs for a living in the TriBeCa neighborhood of NYC, I once walked a fat lab named Henry down Greenwich Street during the TriBeCa film festival. Every restaurant on the street was jam packed with the most infernal luvvie darlings imaginable eating outside on the sidewalk tables.…
