Same with Target. I’ve switched nearly all of my household buying over to Target because they have an awesome app, good shipping, and no counterfeits.

Ah sorry, I was conflating two technologies (which are basically the same in my model). "Available LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist alerts you with visual and audible warnings during unintentional lane drifts and corrects your vehicle back into its lane."

I get a visual (and optional audio -- which I disabled) warning and a little steering wheel resistance to bring it back into the middle of the lane.

While I'm not sure what the minimum speed for adaptive cruise control is, but I use it in freeway stop & go traffic often.

It sure does get them a lot of attention though! My Jeep Cherokee has lane assist, adaptive cruise control, auto-parking, and crash detection (emergency braking) but they don’t get all this press about it.

I’ve been using Retouch for a long time. It’s $1.99. Worth it many times over. https://adva-soft.com/app-pageTouch.html

Love removing my dog’s leash in otherwise cool photos.

This doesn't appear to have anything to do with 1997 ICQ besides the name.

Some corporate polices require 6 digits. I literally am not able to set a 4 digit pin on my watch or my phone because of the policy.

When someone recommended it to me last summer, I was hesitant to be yet another content creator for yet another platform. Then I saw it was run by science foundations! Signed up immediately. It’s been fun in Colorado to learn plants that I see on hikes.

Check out Tech Gear Lab and Outdoor Gear Lab. They’re based in Tahoe and the company purchases every single item they test. When they’re done with testing, they often put the gear up for raffles locally to support mountain bike trails and outdoor non-profits. The folks who run it are all really great people.

Don't let public companies become your city's transit.

It was a very popular service back at the hey-day of blogs and RSS readers. FeedBurner gave blog authors really great statistics and information about the feed, and they created a nice a static URL to point readers to, no matter where the blog was hosted. We didn't have a lot of that statistical information easily available back then (like how many people were subscribed) with the common blog platforms (like Moveable Type or Blogger). FeedBurner also provided a way to interject ads into the feed, since the person reading it wasn't seeing the ads on the normal site.

I believe you're quite right, it would be extremely unwise to use this tool at this point. I'm sure it will be vanquished with no warning.

I was quite surprised to see a Sun article on HN today. Been a member as soon as I moved to Denver last year and have loved seeing it be such a high quality source of journalism.

Are you aware of any mobile apps for Pixelfed yet?

I saw someone from your team post on r/Sasquatch awhile ago and I meant to check it out. Seems like a lot of great features... but yeah, discovery is really important.

Developed stopped 2 years ago, despite the successful Kickstarter. :(

That's actually pretty surprising.

This seems like a great place to hold another Burning Man...

I’m not hooked. In fact, I think it’s kind of obnoxious how much effort they put into getting me stuff so fast. If there was a “slow ship” button for Prime, I’d do it almost every time. I also don’t need notifications of it being “almost here! Watch it on a map!” Completely useless information for most of my orders.

Just be cautious here... in some countries, Starbucks has to operate as a seperate entity and use a different gift card system. For instance, Malaysia Starbucks is a different entity and the gift cards do not work between other non-Malaysia Starbucks. (At least when I was there a few years ago.)

This post from 2012 says where the gift cards must be used and redeemed in the same market: https://customerservice.starbucks.com/app/answers/detail/a_i...

> Starbucks Cards issued in Brazil, Germany, Italy, France, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Portugal, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand and Turkey may only be used in the market from which they are issued.

Current reality is depressing. It’s not like he is distorting it for profit or anything.

There is no them.

That’s odd, that’s not been my experience at all. I’ve been using DDG exclusively for probably 4 years now. I rarely use !g.

None of the current openings fit my skills, but I really enjoyed discovering where the listing descriptions are. :)

I am seeking a solutions engineer position. My industry experience is mainly focused on manufacturing and Industrial IoT, but I have kept in touch with many technology trends in the startup world. I have been involved with open source technologies since the 1990’s.

In all of my positions I have worked closely with the sales team and directly with customers to ensure that their needs are being met. I am a strong customer advocate and care deeply about doing the right thing. I have successfully led many teams to build solutions using many technologies for customers.

> Stevens and company eventually tracked down a machine in “either in northern Nevada or northern California,” although he no longer recalls the specifics.

They removed one of these from Montbleu Casino in Stateline, NV / Lake Tahoe a couple of years ago for a remodel. Everyone I knew was really upset about it... Even if you weren’t playing, it was a blast to grab a drink and stand around cheering folks on. There was never any word what was happening to it, many people hoped it would come back just in a different part of the casino. Unfortunately it never did. I wonder if this is its new home?

scroll scroll scroll ah, finally the ingredients.

I’ve checked into some of these wallets and some of the early ones (I started receiving these several months ago) had $10k-$16k worth in deposits. And then some have none.

I downloaded the app months ago for my Mac but honestly forgot I even had it installed until I read this thread. I use the website every day just fine. There’s no need for the app.

How crazy is it that we not only know each other in real life because of Jabber, but also work together. :)

I have many, many fond memories of hanging out on the old IRCs with the Jabber crew. 20 years! Geeze.

Also for good ideas, check out Pinterest for little free libraries. I got some neat ideas from there. I ended up building mine around a neat old window I got from a reclaimed housing parts yard. Was really fun to have it in my yard!

I can understand your dissatisfaction with their choice of closed on top of open, but I’d encourage you to give it a whirl. I switched early last year because I was growing wary of Google and wanted to see if Opera was faster. Sure enough, it’s impressively fast and has all the built in things that I want. I’m quite impressed with their latest improvements and really enjoy using it. I’d be hard pressed to switch to anything else right now.
