My Garmin 965 lasts about a month, I can't believe it compared to my pixel watch which is flat in a day. Haven't touched it since.

I got it last week and it's great. My main concerns were the older (pixel 7 generation) camera and the battery life. Both have exceeded my expectations, the massive screen is great for browsing and someone even got debian on there (https://old.reddit.com/r/PixelFold/comments/1fcn4du/fullblow...), and it's fairly thin and light even with a case on.

I run my Christmas light show software (https://github.com/FalconChristmas/fpp) with a Pi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlxaA-ca6S0 :)

I thought of Amazon Polly.. converts text to lifelike speech.

> playing music

where does the music come from when you ok google it? I don't have a sonos or whatever set up in my house, so I use my Echo for this (the speaker is excellent) and playing spotify, playing tunein radio, playing pandora, setting kitchen timers when cooking and getting weather reports.

yeah you can get these in a million other ways, but it's just convenient to have in the kitchen.

Thanks for your detailed reply, i'll try to see as much as I can!

Thank you :) I'll try check it out. 4 hours is fine after flying there 14 hours.

I'm a little worried Yosemite might be closed in the first week of winter or something? does it get snowed in?

I have a week to explore areas near San Francisco in the first week of December (driving there from Vegas via LA) can you suggest anything for an Australian? all I've heard is "Big Sur"

Congrats to Ryan and the cloudguru team. I used http://acloud.guru for all my associate level AWS certifications and they were so great I ended up co-authoring the DevOps Engineer certification course with them.

It would be nice to not have to pay $50+ to get something to delivered to Australia.

This also recently started happening in Australia, I got a text message 3 weeks ago saying my blood was used in Liverpool hospital. It was pretty fun knowing where it helped someone.

Great article. One of the best video game trailers I've ever seen has come from Eve: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdfFnTt2UT0

http://hnhiring.me/ does that, it's listed as number 5 in the job boards list.

With AWS and shell shock, it's an interesting time to have just started working for a managed hosting company, nothing like being thrown straight into the deep end of being on call!

They also bought Rare in 2002. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare_Ltd.

I signed up, logged in from the front page and it directed me to https://geekli.st/micro/create which is 404'ing.

There's like half a pixel you can hover over to the left of Amazon which shows Facebook.

I agree here, my friends weren't affected by ops (we were all ops in our own channels) - they moved to MSN and gave up on IRC. Then MSN was dropped and they moved to facebook/google chat, and now it's almost like IRC was by using group chats in whatsapp, but without meeting any new people.

I miss how massive IRC used to be. I've been on the same network since 1996. We're now at around 350 users down from the 6-8k we used to have back then. I've tried other networks and they all seem dead all the time.

Garmin connect can do this, as can runkeeper: http://runkeeper.com/search/routes. I'm sure mapmyrun and others allow it as well? you point and click along the route and it calculates the distance for you, garmin even tells you expected time to complete.

If you use Chrome, Hola is pretty good and doesn't require a signup: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hola-better-intern...

Pretty much. An email I received 30 minutes ago:

"xelfer, your PayPal balance summary is here plus an extra discount from Virgin Airlines."

Is the poor resolution just the first generation devkits or does it still seem low on the updated 1080p versions?

Thanks!

What websites do people here suggest if one did want to learn to draw?
