I don't love most Lwaxana episodes, but that one and Half a Life are wonderful.

God damn right I'll do Picard.

It's * exactly * how reference apps with in-app purchases should work. You can pay a la carte for specific lists of recipes, or pay more (once) for everything forever. It's a really good app with a fun design. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

I'm a Mariners fan, so I'll bet you can guess which of the two bothers me more.

Yeah, that just never seems to work for long. I currently have it set to 35-45, and it's showing me 20-somethings. And I live in a huge city, so it's not like it's running out of people in my age range to show me.

My favorite example of this is from The Chase, where they discover the origin of all humanoid species in the galaxy, probably the most important discovery made in the history of Starfleet, and it's never mentioned again.

In my experience, it doesn't matter what you set your age or distance range to in Tinder, because you're going to get people 10 years older or younger and a hundred miles farther away than you specify anyway.

I use the Control D private DNS, which performs similar functions to a pi-hole, but I think is easier to set up.

When I had a Pixel 6, there was a bug that caused awful battery drain when on 5G, so I changed the preferred network setting to LTE for like a month while waiting for them to fix the issue.

It had NO effect on my regular use at all. Running speed tests showed that my max download speed was significantly slower while using LTE, but that's obviously not indicative of real world usage. If there was any difference between LTE and 5G in terms of page loading, media streaming, etc during regular daily activities, it wasn't perceptible.

 

Pitching sixteen innings of one-run ball against two good lineups will do that, I guess.
