The last time I used OverDrive was several years ago when their mobile apps weren't really a thing, they seemed to be a poorly executed DRM layer, which left a really poor taste in my mouth. I might have to give them a go since my local library system supports it, I think.

I'll have to try that, thanks! I go between the two and didn't really change the coffee volume. I recently got a little scale so maybe I'll do some experiments.

Good to hear. That's actually what I've been doing recently (finer grind, a little less volume). ...not for the purpose of saving on beans, but simply because I got a new grinder that allows for greater control. I generally pour one mug after it's ready and put one directly into a thermos if I know I won't be getting…

Since I drink a lot of coffee on a daily basis, I'm interested to know what the best 'bang for your buck' you get between the different coffee making methods. Aeropress is great, but it seems to use a LOT of ground coffee for a single cup of (tasty) coffee. French press is what I've settled on recently, but I'm…

Ha.

How many notifications does it take to get to INFINITY unread notifications?

Plex is Chromecast enabled.

I use one with my normal sized mouse with no problem, as long as I'm not playing a game. I think it's a matter of how you grip it. I've got more of a 'claw' grip than most, I guess.

"brave enough"

For you android users, a quick workaround is that you can rely on notifications to read messages as they come in. If you don't want the read receipt to be triggered, don't open the app/click on the notification.

I came here to say this, but you've already done it. Maybe that was an outlier?

Also, take into account of taking opportunistic right turns based on traffic lights. If you have two ways, one may be faster simplyif you catch a light or not. There might be an easy bailout turn getting you to a backup route. This is easier on grid like surface streets obviously. My old job had a number of possible…

My least favorite is "the hardest part is behind you" around mile 23. It's not. The hardest part, if you're not kicking for the end, in my experience, is always in front of you.

Here's a tip if you forget to follow the suggested advice above:

As with all of this stuff, there is a scale of cheap gas finding behavior where it goes from logical to crazy. My dad, for most of his life, was way on the 'I'm driving so far and long to get cheaper gas that I have negated the benefit to my wallet and my life' side of the scale.

Yeah, most apps should work fine. It is a feedly problem, not a problem with the tool.

that would be fine if the only links I wanted to open from a page would be the article itself, but often an article might have a link I want to open (outside feedly) without first going to my browser....

I played with the other app, tappath, and found a deficiency in not the link app, but in feedly's app. As my primary way of consuming the internet, I was sad to see the feedly browser and odd implementation of link behavior get in the way of these cool link apps. Anyone else run into this?

Knowing which local foods are considered 'fast food' can matter a lot when it comes to finding cheap local fare. In Greece, for example, you can get Souvlaki or Gyro for quite cheap, even in touristy areas. It's not something that I have a lot of at home and was a good, cheap option if I just wanted some decent food…
