Maybe true today, but less true in earlier times (90s and early 2000s) when Microsoft was really gaining dominance.

I may frame this. Poetry.

Shut Up and Sit Down have a great review of crokinole that will make you want to buy or make a board if you don’t have one already.

I was looking at this: https://content.naic.org/sites/default/files/publication-msr-hb-accident-health.pdf

And the three companies (kaiser, oscar, ambetter) with lower denial rates than the national average combined have less of a marketshare than United Health. But there are a ton of smaller players in the market. I guess the lesson is the big players pretty much all suck.

I’m curious about the industry average. It seems that the majority of the larger providers deny far more than the industry average. The numbers don’t seem to work unless the bulk of the industry is smaller providers that are not showing on this graph. I may be wildly misinterpreting this. Anyone have any insight here?

I’ve been using simple cold water models for over 10 years now. But I really like this upgrade in design. Same basic simplicity, but it looks a lot easier to keep clean.

I hate bidet hate. If I upend a bowl full of brownie batter on a shag carpet, I’m not going to “clean” it with dry paper towels. Use your heads, people!

The downside to installing a bidet is I now hate pooping without the home court advantage.

I clicked on this thinking it was going to be a link to one of the $200+ electric models, but this is actually a relatively inexpensive upgrade I can get behind (pun?) It looks like it’s a lot easier to keep clean. Thanks for this.

I’m grandfathered in to when their premium was a one-time payment, but I’m trying out AntennaPod again as I’d like to stick with open source solutions. I haven’t used AntennaPod since 2.4.x and I moved back to Pocket Cast because AntennaPod was giving me a weird issue where the app would occasionally lose audio focus when I paused. I’m hoping I don’t run into that issue again, because, other than that, it was every bit as good as Pocket Casts, probably better.

I love being able to arrange by tags, rather than folders.

“smuggle” not "snuggle "

Check out Darknet Diaries. High production, in-depth stories on hacking and cyber security. Good for tech-heads and non-tech-heads

Based on Behind The Bastards, check out Knowledge Fight. Dan and Jordan have co-hosted on BtB. They track Alex Jones and Infowars. They’re funny and delightful.

Based on Wait Wait, Don’t Tell Me, check out The Unbelievable Truth. Hosted by David Mitchell on BBC Radio 4. Very funny celebrity panel show where they tell outrageous lies about a particular topic, but try to snuggle truths undetected past their opponents. Very funny, and there’s years of back catalog to listen to, if you’re so inclined.

except Sci-hub hasn’t been adding new papers since 2020. Anna’s Archive is a better bet, because they aggregate both sci-hub and libgen, among others. They also make torrents available for data hoarders. Their torrents total over 600 TB at this point, but include books in addition to articles.
