I haven't in over a decade. I think I'm up to eight different word filters trying to stop news stories about this from showing up on my feed. If they didn't have such a stupid name I could just block the term meta.

Discoverability is my biggest issue with the subscribed feed. If I'm using subscribed, I'm not finding new communities. Curating a set of base communities that I want to see does seem like it would be worth the effort, though. Thanks for the suggestion.

I love the idea of the decentralized services, but trying to browse global all is a nightmare. Even browsing local all I have a ton of communities blocked and add more every day. The only downside is when communities I like migrate to a different instance. I still try global all once every few months, but it never lasts long.

Right, I just use it as a display for my streaming device. I'm just wondering if there's any harm in connecting to the internet, updating firmware, then disconnecting.

Is there any reason to never connect a TV to the internet? I got a new TV and didn't bother connecting it for any updates, but eventually I was having some remote issues that resolved after updating the TV.

If you have two cars, one EV and one ICE is a great option. I do recommend whoever is more enthusiastic about EVs get the first one, though.

I second youtube videos. There's a ton of content available that's basically just advertising for the creator's app/book/website, but the videos themselves are often plenty to get started and figure out if you like that style of content or not.

Missed opportunity for this to be a wireless charger.

A friend of mine did this and it looks great. There are vehicle specific kits that make the whole process relatively simple.

Awesome, thank you for this!

My runs have finally become predictable which makes it much easier to stay consistent. I didn't quite reach my goal of a 30 minute 5k, but did improve my time by several minutes. I'm running a 10k today that I hope to finish in about 1:10.

Update, finished in 1:14. Some steep hills slowed me down, but I'm still really happy with the time.

Same. Based on the experience, I'll never set foot in a dealership again.
