We like the big UK brands like Yorkshire (the British know tea), but of the main US brands, usually grab Bigelo. But any tea drinker has a cabinet full of all kinds of tea.

A creative way to tell a student how to download a free book while telling them “not to”. The professor probably just wants to teach and is as tired of the university bullshit as the students.

We taught our daughter to count starting at zero. Her kindergarten teacher was not amused.

Most small gardens are not profitable. But it is therapeutic and the food tastes better.

Ease of use. For example, if I need something odd like a rack to hang bikes in my garage, I can find and buy one in 5 minutes and go back to whatever I was going.

Facebook market, but same issues with people. But dealing face to face helps somewhat. I despise it and don’t use FB personally, but my wife does and unfortunately that is where local sales happen now.

It saves tons of time. Most of the things we buy on Amazon are not even available locally.

I have gone to the source and bought off the top 4-5 Chinese sites. Slow, but so far no issues.

Walmart occasionally, but their website is terrible and selection limited.

Microcenter for pc parts.

eBay for a few things.

Adorama and the other big NY camera seller (edit: B&H) often have deals on things like laptops.

Rock auto for car parts. Car-part.com for used car parts when my wife hits yet another deer.

Amazon, still way too much.

Memmy has a setting to hide NSFW by default and a setting to blur content. I rarely click it because it opens in safari.

They have added the blue jump button. It makes it hard to upvote comments at the bottom, but love that it is there.

This is the way.

Venmo is PayPal 2.0 (and owned by PayPal). X is a distant 3, 4, or 5 place.

It is Macrumors.

Elon Musk Wants to Relive His Start-Up Days. He’s Repeating the Same Mistakes.

Los Alamos is worth a visit. The lab is locked down (a road goes through it, you are not supposed to take pictures), but there are a couple really neat museums. One of the retired age volunteers at the museum asked us how deep of a discussion we wanted. He went down a deeep rabbit hole of chemistry and mechanical bomb design. It was obvious he had strong knowledge of how atom bombs worked. It was glorious. And the boys boarding school is also neat.

I have never really enjoyed alcohol. If I’m at a social event and someone hands me a beer I’ll drink it. Or, if I’m in 500 year old pub in London I’ll order one. But the last beer I brought home my wife cooked with after it sat in the fridge for months. And I have never let myself get drunk.

Downloaded Mlem after this comment. It is pretty good (none feel polished yet).

Use the one built into iPhones and either encrypt iCloud so Apple cannot read it ( but no way to recover if you forget password) or turn off iCloud sync for health data (you will lose history with new phone).

Or, print out a one page annual calendar and use a pencil.

It is home to Hooker OK.

They are different parks. Most amusement parks have better simple rides like roller coasters. You go to Disney for immersion. A simple theme park is not going to have a ride like Rise of the Resistance. But a simple theme park is likely closer to your home and far less expensive. Go to your local park regularly and Disney occasionally.
