I love that it assumes you just have a bunch of random expensive stuff you aren’t using.

Tldr: google is now adding tracking via a URL shortener to every link shared via the share menu in chrome.

To weed out people who scrutinize the scam. The same reason scams often have misspelled words. They want people who will react quickly without thinking too hard.

Ones from 1982 and earlier are much more valuable when melted down.

Is this a new requirement? I spent several months in the EU in 2022 and 2023 and never had to download an app to connect to the Wifi4EU networks.

I’m not in a swing state but I still get a decent amount of political spam. It’s mostly random PACs sending clickbait texts asking me to donate. Every so often I get a text from a candidate running in a completely different state and wonder where they got their lists.

to: Dr. Jækel Hydensen and Family would be better in English.

We sometimes send things to “The Hydensen Family” but that does seem to assume that the heads of the family have the same last name.

It’s been like 6 years since I’ve owned a car but I’ll try to estimate what is was when I had one.

• $150 a year in registration
• $100 a month in insurance
• $100 a month in gas
• Not sure about maintenance but probably $50-$100 a month
• $130 a year city sticker

So my estimate is $3500-$4000 a year

But I do spend about $150 a year in bicycle maintenance so there’s that. And about $50 a month in bus fares.

Earlier this year I had a connection in Doha, Qatar on my way to the US. I had to go through security twice even though it was a connection from another international flight (first was after getting off the first flight and the second was right before getting on second flight). Both times they took away all liquids, even those bought in the airport.

Do they test everyone’s shoes or do you just have to be extremely unlucky?

This is the Mont Blanc Tramway in Saint Gervais, France

My mom got one but she upgraded from a 3 so it’s a big improvement. I got an 8 a couple month ago and see no reason to upgrade. Most of the changes seem to be AI related with very minor hardware improvements.

There’s a place near me called Just Salad that has several posters on the windows stating the sell more than salads.

Book ads are at least usually at the end of the book and for other books you might want to read. And they’re static. If internet ads were like book ads I wouldn’t have to block them.

I wish more creators were on nebula. I would like to support them on patron but $5+ a month per channel adds up really quickly.

My cousin couldn’t understand how I bought groceries after I sold my car. After telling him I walked three blocks to the store he asked how I bought groceries in winter. I told him I put on a coat and boots and walk three blocks to the store.

I love the ingenious solutions for ancient under floor heating.

No modern grains: find the original wild versions of wheat, corn, and rice and only process and eat those.

Did they not know that word can generate very convoluted HTML for them?
