naw, that’s the good batch.   the bad batch went to texas.

I take it you don’t have 2 daughters and a wife. Try that - guaranteed it’ll change your opinion (on this, and many other things).

I agree with every word you’ve said here, but I think this tipping culture doesn’t actually help the employees: especially as we get away from the tip jar and into electronic tipping, that just becomes another factor that the employer uses to minimize what they pay employees.  And down the rabbit hole we go.

I’m surprised at the difference for youtube premium, since it’s owned by google. they’re skirting their own fees?  that’s a heck of an example to set.  interesting.

spoken like a true apple customer. whether you one day break out of the apple-sphere and discover it or not, there’s a whole world of stuff out here, and ways of doing things that are oftentimes better than what apple locks you into!

This is the first reason I’ve found to move on from my Galaxy 8+ (it’s stuck on Android 9). I’m very ready to leave behind Samsung, one UI, and their aggression in trying to get me to use bixby and the rest of their stupid ecosystem. I can’t argue that the hardware isn’t top notch but Samsung is a bully (as evidenced…

and you better believe the manufacturer is counting on this attitude (“oh, it’s only cosmetic stuff, who cares”) as they roll this out and attempt to normalize this in the eyes of consumers. once that happens, you can bet your bottom dollar heated seats and a whole bunch else will be rolled in.

You’re an ex cross country runner, eh? I hope you don’t mind if I pick your brain a little - but first let me say:

so here’s my problem: I get BORED unless I’m in zone 4+. I can’t help but ramp it up, run the hill, whatever. So my q: are the above stated benefits of Zone 2 maximized within Zone 2? My gut says no - that all those benefits are also realized at higher zones, but maybe there’s an advantage of being in Zone 2 (other…

I’ll take that bet.

I do know what you mean, and insofar as it means a loss of a human consciousness I agree that it’s a tragedy and crime right on par with killing a person outright. Perhaps even worse if it means additional suffering.

I’ve always enjoyed cornering more than just mashing a pedal and watching the needle climb. I feel like corners = fun while speed = death/dismemberment

I’m both intrigued and bored of this at the same time. Another article included details of her countersuit that she claims he was uphill from her before the collision.  But I just don’t care enough either way.

whoops - you should have gone with your first impulse and applied some thought. (generally, thinking before replying is a good idea, but I won’t stop you from you doing you - carry on my friend!)

I agree with your reply on first take of the situation, but after some thought I’m left with this:

well at least the article follows Betteridge’s Law of Headlines

I can’t wait to try this, nice tip! Your experimentation with longer pre-poach times also saved me a few eggs, thanks for that too. :)

I usually take a higher road than throwing people’s words back at them, but it’s Friday and I’m not going to stop myself this time:

Well, spaceman497, get ready to have your experiences expanded. Fully functional adults no longer have to hide their consumption. I predict you’re going to be quite surprised to have your stereotypes shattered when you learn that totally normal guy at work / next door likes to imbibe.

Florida is chock-full of these special districts - read up on it, it’s fascinating.
