And yet it will barely move the needle about how Americans feel about Trump and his administration. The frog has been fully boiled in the pot at this point.

Love CoMaps, it had shockingly good routing instructions for subway trips in many European cities that I visited, and saving the maps locally let me navigate with ease before I picked up a local sim card. I don’t find it very effective to search by address, but landmark or business name work well. At home I just have my usual destinations bookmarked and it has solid routing instructions, though it doesn’t have live traffic updates because it doesn’t connect to any remote servers.

It’s a simple spelling mistake, but it made me read the title in a Mario voice, and I think that’s how it was meant to be communicated.

Ah, you mean Tim Apple. 😉

Same, and it was still a solid little phone, I used it until most of the apps stopped being supported, and even then, it was my backup phone for years, until the networks stopped supporting it.

Jeebus, that’s infuriating. I’m so mad I started supporting The Intercept just for covering this farce of a democracy.

Doesn’t he produce his audio books with his own money or crowd funding to avoid lock-in with Amazon, Spotify, etc.?

Easy removability could make something like this viable. If you could just take the motor off and charge it inside, it would solve some security concerns along with the logistics.

No transportation systems were made for some of these conditions. Yes, rails will expand and cause problems, and planes sometimes are grounded due to extreme heat (as in the case of Pheonix, Arizona last year when it hit 122F). Adapting is good, but best is to prioritize the forms of transportation that don’t make it actively worse.

I’m kinda glad to see Demi take a commanding lead, if only so we didn’t have to hear from Canyon-SRAM about it. The best rider and team won. (And I say that as a big fan of Kasia.)

That last stage looked absolutely brutal, you know it’s rough when you drop Marlen Reusser and ELB, and I feel particularly sorry for Reusser’s bad luck in that corner on the second-to-last circuit.

I still can’t get my head around the performance of Zoe Bäckstedt, crashing hard and then remounting and crushing that final circuit climb. Domestique performance of the Tour!

Do I wish that we had seen Paula Blasi unleashed this year? Yeah, I do, but we are going to see a lot more of her. And I am genuinely happy to see ELB on the podium.

Kudos to Puck Pieterse for the polka-dot jersey, although that meant that we didn’t see much of her in the final parts of the race. Her energy and enthusiasm is always delightful.

Sanders’ proposal of a government stake in so-called AI companies is the fatal flaw to me, it would seemingly put the taxpayers on the hook for even more of the coming post-hype fallout than they already are.

Mushi-shi, a delightful and thoughtful show with a good “monster of the week” formula.

In a similar vein, Kino’s Journey.

Serei no moribito (Guardian of the Sacred Spirit) might be my favorite, though. I like the character of Balsa and the mentoring role she takes over the young prince.

It’s like a stupider, more obviously corrupt version of the high-frequency trading scheme, running ahead of the big/passive money yo make sure they always get the worst deal.

Of course it was being pulled behind a bike. 😆 Oh Oregon, stay weird!

Stupid question, but who’s the bloke to the left of Merckx? Kopecky I recognize, but I don’t know him.

And to think that they were bred from aurochs, which were bigger, faster, and meaner. Which is saying something, as modern cattle are still pretty massive animals!

This was on Lower Broadway in the heart of Nashville’s tourist district, which should have been pedestrianized years ago.

All this talk, but the most dangerous vehicle in the story was still the Chevy Tahoe, which has no business in a city.

That’s just aweful, friend, I’m so sorry.
