I like the term shovelware.

Ubuntu and Mint condition that affects your digestive tract and the other day I trust that this was the one I sent her an hour and there was an instant hot to handle this is the best for me.

I actually tried this today. My computer has 3 monitors. This program crashes really hard if you have more than one monitor. Maybe we it’s good otherwise, but I’ve uninstalled.

Document your code like the guy who will be maintaining it is Dexter, and he knows where you live.

We called them “Giggle Sticks”.

There we go. Haier is now on my personal “do not ever buy from” list. Congratulations, Haier.

Explain?

Even grocery stores don’t double bag anymore.

Yes, very…I believe the technical term is “sparkly”. Lol. But seriously, they’re amazing.

Consider “moissanite”. Beautiful manufactured gemstones that look very much like diamonds but are a fraction of the price.

Exactly! I read some air fryer reviews and one of the reviews said the best air fryer is a convection toaster oven, so I thought, “well it’s Costco and if I hate it I can return it and get an air fryer.” I use this for so many things and almost every day. Reheating food is generally better in this than the microwave oven too.

A memory foam mattress topper. Mine is 8cm (3") thick and an absolute game changer. It goes on top of your existing mattress and under the fitted sheet.

Which one do you have?

I almost bought an air fryer, but ended up with a convection toaster oven. Does everything an air fryer does and much more. I bought the Gourmia one from Costco and would buy it again in a heartbeat.

What is a bell pen? And why not just use a ballpoint pen?

A GPS? Why?

Maybe they’ve since added blocking artists. I know that I had several back and forth conversations with Spotify support on this and there wasn’t any way to do it back then. I don’t want to block a song, I want to block an artist/band completely.

I don’t want shuffle to take into account their licensing fees, or which record labels they have promotions with. I want a random mix based on my favorite songs or chosen playlist. This is unacceptable and part of why I cancelled Spotify.

Tidal doesn’t use mqa. The company behind mqa went under and they’ve since changed to FLAC.

Good headphones or great speakers and I do hear a difference. Not in every song, but in many. Spotify keeps promising better quality and they keep failing to deliver.

For reference, I have studio monitors that are calibrated and room corrected. Yes. There is a difference.

After a few years on Spotify, I switched to Tidal.

Issues I had with Spotify are:

1. You can’t block a song, an artist or a band. Ridiculous really. For example, I dislike Kanye West and never want to hear his music, and blocking him on Tidal was easy.
2. The Spotify shuffle algorithm is beyond terrible. If you have a 250 song playlist, you’ll hear the same popular 50 songs and never the obscure ones. Sometimes even back-to-back. It’s frustrating and they won’t fix it. It seems to be their algorithm is designed to promote some artists or bands more than others.
3. Spotify have promised higher quality audio for years and still haven’t brought it out. With good headphones or speakers I can hear the difference that Tidal has.

I miss how well Spotify integrated with Google Home though.
