@CatherineFlick I have the Sage Smart Grinder Pro, which is in fact not smart at all. I bought it after many years of replacing crappy grinders that would die after a year or so and it’s been rock solid.
Sat down on my bed with my phone. Never. Ever. Do that. It’s now an hour later and I’ve done nothing but aimlessly read the internet rather than going to bed.
@vkc also I assume “continue” is an evasively labelled “enable personalised search for me” button.
@vkc “continue” / “ask me in 3 days”. How about instead you go away and stop hassling me you infernal machine.
@pikesley the AI they talk about in the context of merging different datasets stands for Actually Indexes.
@gsuberland @munin I just want to give a shout out to checking this - I’ve interacted with way too many “security researchers” who have no comprehension of how anything works beyond “my vulnerability scanner says you’re vulnerable, cash please”.
I have reached DS9 in my rewatch of the Star Trek I grew up with, Next Generation, DS9, Voyager. I’d forgotten how hard it goes from the outset, and how well they used season 6 of TNG to lay the groundwork.
(Sorry Original Series fans, I tried watching that as well but I’m afraid it’s aged like a pint of milk on a summer’s day, especially the “HD” version where it’s incredibly obvious everything is made of polystyrene)
@catsalad I think I might just be forced to try all the flavours. You know. For science.
@internetsdairy I love it when the BBC are forced to report on the BBC, doubly so when it’s specifically BBC News.
“BBC News have approached BBC News for comment”, as if the journalists are somehow completely impartial and have no real thoughts on who the director of BBC News should be.
@fesshole clearly a spreadsheet is needed, correlating, ahem, endurance with other things you choose to track. I’m surprised Apple Health doesn’t have support for this.
This is on account of the fact that if you drink enough of it your heartbeat will be so fucking regular you can’t escape it.

@TheBreadmonkey absolutely, MachineGames have absolutely nailed what makes an Indiana Jones and then spread it out over an entire game with some fantastic voice acting and motion capture.
@TheBreadmonkey I thought that and then I played Great Circle, which is easily the best Indiana Jones film since Last Crusade, despite being a game.
@majorlinux absolutely agreed on that, I think you just fired off the same reaction I have when politicians talk about hard working people, as if working hard is what makes someone worth caring about.
@majorlinux I agree, although not thinking big enough. Why do jobs need to be a human right? We could support society even if a bunch of people decided to go make art, or research a particular ant, or hell, just watched Simpsons all day.
browser extension that automatically blocks the opening third of every informational article where they tell you, who are looking for specific information about a named grain of wood, what a tree is
@fesshole one of the few fesses where I’m unsure that just telling her the truth is the correct path.
@dave DNSimple are fine, although I keep meaning to move off them just because I feel a bit of a mug paying for DNS in 2025.
@an0key do you mean to say the Harvesting All Your Data to Sell Ads company harvested your data to sell ads?
@stephen it is, actually, fine. Swipe up on Safari’s address bar to reveal tabs, the lack of discoverability on that was my only real complaint.
Jesus Christ. I ordered some takeaway from Uber Eats because it’s the only app that store is on and their website is awful.
As I was plating: “Did the food get delivered? Tell us when, help us train our model.”
20 minutes later: “Rate your meal”
Just now: “Pweeeease will you rate your meal?”
STOP BEING SO NEEDY COMPANIES.
