well it’s a six inch display so presumably it’ll be a lot cheaper. maybe designed with an always-on display. And the UI optimized for home oriented stuff. could be interesting.
my mom is a retired special ed teacher and has taken a big interest in helping a neighbor (divorced) with their young autistic child. maybe this is partly why, hadn’t thought about that.
“Much like live theater, the show, especially Season 3, was asking the audience to be an active participant,” Sudeikis said. “Some people want to do that, some people don’t. Some people want to judge—they don’t want to be curious,” the opposite of Coach Lasso’s belief in Walt Whitman’s quote “be curious, not judgmental.”
so basically "no criticism allowed"...
“I’ll never understand people who will go on talking about something so brazenly that they, in my opinion, clearly don’t understand,” Sudeikis continues. “And God bless ’em for it; it’s not their fault. They don’t have imaginations and they’re not open to the experience of what it’s like to have one.
..."if there's something you don't like, you just don't understand"...
“Everybody’s in better shape than when they started,” Sudeikis says of the characters and the resolutions of their storylines. “Like a good Boy or Girl Scout at a campsite, we left it better than we found it. And if you don’t see that in that show, then I don’t know what show you’re watching.”
and "our show is good because it has happy endings".
okay Jason.
until the demand for it skyrockets. then it’s either gone or just as expensive as all the tariffed coffee.
agreed. I'm just saying "simple" or "complex" has nothing to do with it.
you can have simple games without predatory monetization. that's what OP is talking about.
great. now I want a sunbeam radiant control toaster.
also the air circulation is more intense in an air fryer, and it's a smaller enclosed space which is easier to keep at a high temperature. both of these also help food cook more evenly.
it's the same general idea but they don't perform the same.
ES6 will be fine. Starfield was doomed from the beginning because of the silly space exploration structure.
unless you already played it and want something new.
wasted too much time on starfield, FO76, and mobile games. that's all they have released since 2018. and if you don't count VR editions or special editions then you're back to 2016 with FO4.
8 years of junk. They could have made TWO elder scrolls in that time.
is this the one with Tom Holland as well? secret spider-man begins?
if you (not you specifically but anyone reading) find this happens often enough to be debilitating you may benefit from seeing a psychiatrist for anxiety/depression medication. My wife was like that and it made an immediate difference for her.
A24’s ‘Heretic’ Will Make These Movie Theaters Smell Like Blueberry Pie During One Pivotal Scene
A24's 'Heretic' will host advance screenings at Alamo Drafthouse in which the movie theater will smell like blueberry pie during one pivotal scene.
The movie company partnered with Joya Studio to bring multi-sensory screenings exclusively to Alamo Drafthouse theaters nationwide. The immersive moviegoing experience will take place at advance screenings on Oct. 30, ahead of the film’s Nov. 8 release date in the U.S.
...
The aroma will be activated at Alamo theaters via Joya Studio’s atomization technology, which employs cold-air diffusion to disperse scented molecules as fine, dry air without the use of heat, water or alcohol.

Bilal Coulibaly, Johnny Davis show off improvement in Wizards’ preseason opener
Coulibaly is more confident, more skilled and stronger. Davis has rediscovered his shooting stroke.
The interesting bits to me:
>“The past two years,” Davis told The Athletic on Sunday night, “a development coach from each year has been tinkering with my shot, messing with it. So I came back into this year, and I said, ‘Nobody is touching my jump shot. I’m just going to leave it as it is, leave it comfortable.’ And they’ve left me alone about it. So, it feels really good right now. I’ve been working on it the whole summer, so I’m just glad to see it pay off.”
>Davis said he made those tweaks with the help of his trainer in Wisconsin, James Fox.
---
>“I just feel like I know what’s going on on the court,” Coulibaly said Sunday night. “Last year, there was some times where I felt awkward on the court and I didn’t know what I was doing for real. But now I know what I gotta do, what Coach really wants me to do. So, I know where my spots are. I know where I’m going to get the ball. It makes it way easier for me.”
>And as his drive and runner in the third quarter showed, the right-wrist fracture he suffered last March that ended his rookie season prematurely might have been a blessing in disguise. It forced him to concentrate on developing his coordination with his off-hand.
>“Oh, man,” he said, breaking into a wide smile, “you don’t even know how much I worked on my left hand. It was crazy. I can shoot with my left hand now, too, because I’ve been working so much on my left hand. It was like six weeks straight shooting with my left hand, dribbling, passing, all of that.”
>Keefe also expects to have Coulibaly take more of a role handling the ball and initiating the offense.
---
>Even before that imaging took place, a league source told The Athletic that Brogdon is expected to miss at least one month.
US, allies call for ‘immediate’ 21-day cease-fire between Israel and Hezbollah
The signatories include the United States, Australia, Canada, the European Union, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Qatar.
>Updated 10:16 PM EDT, September 25, 2024
>The U.S., France and other allies jointly called Wednesday for an “immediate” 21-day cease-fire to allow for negotiations in the escalating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah that has killed more than 600 people in Lebanon in recent days.
>The joint statement, negotiated on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, says the recent fighting is “intolerable and presents an unacceptable risk of a broader regional escalation.”
>“We call for an immediate 21-day cease-fire across the Lebanon-Israel border to provide space for diplomacy,” the statement said. “We call on all parties, including the governments of Israel and Lebanon, to endorse the temporary cease-fire immediately.”
I'm not sure how this happened or if it's a problem, but the community [email protected] has no moderators listed in its sidebar
Maybe the mod(s) got banned by admins? Doesn't seem to be too active thankfully, but it's probably only a matter of time before moderation will be needed there.

Toronto Raptors center Jontay Porter is out of the lineup and a subject of an NBA investigation into irregularities on prop betting involving him, sources tell @DavidPurdum, @ESPNWindhorst and me. Story soon.

F1 is doing it backwards. Simplify and freeze ICE specs, and unfreeze all the electrical systems.
ICE is dead, and none of the developments make it to road cars anyway. Meanwhile, battery/EV tech needs all the development it can get and F1's have been frozen for years.
Make F1 road relevant again, not just aerospace on bubble gum tires. Let teams compete on the tech that actually matters to the motoring world.
Tell Your Representative in Congress to Reject Pro-Homeopathy Amendment

CFI calls on our supporters to help defeat a pro-homeopathy amendment being proposed for the federal appropriations bill H.R. 4368. The homeopathy lobby is pushing hard for this amendment, and we need CFI supporters to voice their opposition to their members of Congress.
Homeopathy groups such as Americans For Homeopathy Choice (AFHC) are lobbying strenuously for Appropriations Amendment #4. This amendment would bar FDA enforcement of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act against new homeopathic drug products as long as a product complies with “standards for strength, quality, and purity set forth in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States.” In other words, it would replace much-needed federal regulation with the industry’s own standards.
CFI has consistently pointed out that homeopathy is bunk science that does not work beyond the placebo effect. Homeopathic products are typically diluted to the point that no active ingredients remain. It is quack medicine and consumer fraud.
The Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia’s standards of quality are not medically valid. Yet the amendment would exempt homeopathic products from FDA regulation and oversight if they comport with those standards. This amounts to an argument of “No need for federal regulation, we can regulate ourselves with our own standards even if they constitute medical fraud” – or, more succinctly, “Let the fox guard the henhouse, please.” (Indeed, CFI has tussled with the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia before.)
At the moment, AFHC and the homeopathy lobby are seeking additional co-sponsors in the House of Representatives for their amendment. This is where CFI’s supporters come in.
We need our supporters to mobilize and contact their members in the House of Representatives immediately. Please let them know, in no uncertain terms, that homeopathy cannot and must not escape federal regulation. It is crucial to keep Appropriations Amendment #4 out of the federal appropriations bill.
