I’m gonna simply say this: if you are at all interested in a Stargate show with ANY of the original creators/performers involved, now is the time to say something. Otherwise it really will be the end of that chapter forever. Let them know you are THERE

Surprised at how bad Amazon pharmacy has been, missed prescription refills despite the site saying they were would ship. Seems leadership principles don’t apply there.

@dcwhatwhat Yeah we also have a 2021 Subaru and CarPlay is just annoying in comparison, likely due to the slow refresh screen and usb connection. I mean it’s fine, it’s just those rare occasions where something goes wrong etc.

[Andrew Dekker @simultech]

@dcwhatwhat Network was the big reason, most others types require apps and it’s a shot in the dark if they work at all, would never risk a road trip without superchargers. Also really like not having to deal with CarPlay, having google maps and Spotify just work every time is nice

The killer apps for AR will be similar to the killer apps for mobile - in the moment answers to dumb contextual questions that the machine can track: “which cup was mine?” at a party, “where did I leave the pen?” or “is this washed?”

@scottdejonge Haven't tired myself, but could use a user css extension and then set `transition-duration: 0 !important`?

Nothing worse than ordering a pickup off @DoorDash and it gives you the location 40 minutes drive away rather than the one 5 minutes drive away. Then doesn’t let you cancel. Last time I swear!
