It’s theoretically possible to reduce cost of food and reduce factory farming if we convert feed fields to other human-consumable options. Additionally, water is conserved, and greenhouse gasses (methane) are further limited.
It’s my opinion that we should not stick with and try to iterate on a bad, unjust, and unfavorable system for the sake of keeping prices low with our current dietary preferences.
I am a current meat eater and former 6 year vegetarian.
Please share how to run the pesticide and herbicide places out of town. Would love some good options.
I was an efficiency whore while working management at a big software company.
It sucked in some very specific ways. I didn’t even realize the impact until after I left that environment.
There were some good things from corporate America, too, but they didn’t bring real ultimate power happiness.
The Spaceburger looks pretty dope.
Apple urges developers to not use DeviceCheck for anything beyond basic device verification, and if you’re a developer that’s also misusing it, then you should definitely cease that—there are probably more reliable ways to check whether it’s the same user trying to access an account from a device or not.
I don’t think I care about not being able to erase the device ID. It seems useful to have this, actually, for back-tracing if need be.
Snapchat probs shouldn’t use the DeviceCheck services improperly. But hey, that’s just like my opinion, man.
More, not very interesting, info on DeviceCheck services here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicecheck
Sonic sage playlists FTW
Similar - I signed up for my Spotify account with a VPN, as it was only available in Europe / UK / something like that. Have been paying for as long as I can remember.
With our family account, we had a house account, wife, mother, grandmother, and myself. In reality, only 2 of those accounts really got used.
The family verification emails were definitely annoying. But the yearly price hike with few important feature improvements, combined with things like audiobooks being for the primary account only, caused me to re-eval.
Now, my wife is on a student plan on Spotify, and I’m trialing Tidal. I expect to stick with Tidal based on lossless and higher pay for artists. If I don’t, I’ll likely swing over to Apple Music. Switching and migrating playlists is pretty painless, overall.
In any case, I’m glad I’m out of that abusive relationship with Spotify.
That’s not quite what I said. You have strong convictions, and I wish you well.

Poor advice, IMO. Going below BMR is ok, starvation mode is largely a myth, and, while nutrition is important, it is not necessary for caloric-deficit weight loss.
I’m with ya. I’d at least prefer that the increased security came with some extra privileges, like scan and go.
When in Rome, I guess. And I’ll try not to be a grump about it.
My thoughts exactly. I gain almost nothing with this design change, as compared to keeping the current or similar-to “bar” form and folding out from there.
I’m starting to have visions of Zoolander and his ridiculously small cell phone…
I just switched from Spotify to Tidal, and am enjoying lossless audio. We’ll see if I stay or go here.
It’s fun to try a new algorithm, too. I used SongShift to transfer my tracks and playlists (have been using that app for 5 years or so now).
I have a Soda Stream and use powders. The trick is to turn your powder into a “syrup” first.
Mix your powder with 1-2 oz of water, stir it well (I use a hand held milk frother), and then put that into your bubbly water.
They might miss out on the convenience of AirPlay, though. AFAIK you cant do DLNA streaming to the Apple TV.
AirPlay really bridges the gaps for me, wrt having any app available on my tv at any time.
Combined with steam connect, it’s a decent multi use box with solid, non-intrusive updates. Just wish the garden wasn’t so unnecessarily walled.
I’ve just started a Zulip POC and it’s been decent so far. Definitely resembles Discord.
‘Well done or none’ is the general rule.
It’s fast food. Not wait-for-surge-pricing-to-come-down food.
OP — Plex is a step easier, as Plex brokers the connection. No reverse proxy. The same plus in this case can also be seen as a minus.
I’m still on the Plex bus, and it’s good for me and friends. Jellyfin will get there one day, but right now it’s just not quite feature complete enough for my use cases.
This echo chamber gets LOUD, too!
I have one that does this, too.
It usually doesn’t last super long; I get too hot with him near my chest, and he gets antsy if I’m not perfectly still. 🤷♂️
