Are you referring to a different Connect app? The one on Google Play had an update a few months ago, does not seem abandoned.

I don’t actively use the app, just curious.
A nutritionist will be better able to explain this but I’ll give it a try :)
You’re maybe overthinking the sugar part of the equation. Berries/fruits contain natural sugar that is a part of the fruit itself. Your body processes that differently since that sugar comes integrated with other nutrients (fiber, Vitamin C, antioxidants, etc.). And you typically won’t want to eat say a few buckets of berries in one sitting to equal the same sugar high you get in a processed sugar, all that fiber will feel much heavier and your body is just going to tell you to slow down on its own.
The much worse types of sugars are added sugars e.g. sugars that were processed and now exist separately, then re-added into something else. Take your berry example, process all the sugar out of them so only the sugar exists, then you add those sugars to some other food you wanted to sweeten. Now it’s a sugar without any integrated benefits (no fiber/vitamin C/antioxidants/etc/) - your body won’t process this processed sugar the same way it used to when it existed as part of the fruit… you’re only getting the bad without anything useful. So you can gobble a whole ton more of those added sugars to get your sugar high without your body getting any indicators to hey, slow down, maybe it’s time to stop eating these added sugars.
Same as the other commenter, Pixel 7 + default Android OS. I appreciate the third party ROMs existing but haven’t really bothered going through all that in a few years. Way back I did used to install CyanogenMod but it always felt like a bit of a hassle with random bugs, phone restarts… at some point I bought one of the early Pixels and felt the stock Android worked well enough. My own motivation early on was to avoid the phone bloat/random apps that were pre-installed on non-Google Android phones.
That aside I may take another look at this stuff if it becomes impossible to sideload apps on stock Android OS with Google forcing app developers to verify themselves. And/or check out Linux-based phones.
Typing this out just realized LineageOS started out as a fork of CyanogenMod so I guess that code still exists in some capacity even today.
Never paid for streaming. Usually buy music and download the files to play on my computer or stream them from the computer to my phone or wherever. Mainly have been buying lossless .flac music files from Bandcamp.
Maybe? Does seem a bit much. I already walk about 40 mins to get to work and that’s at the higher end of what most people would walk.
But I would maybe do it if there were other things near that library that I need to go to. Have multiple destinations in mind for a longer walk like that.
EDIT: The library by me is about a 5 minute walk for what it’s worth. Same for groceries & other stuff.
If the business is or was promoting and marketing their business on xitter then it could make sense for them to try the same on a Mastodon instance account.
I’m not sure if it’s really “worth” it for a small business to maintain a presence on Mastodon but I guess it’s an option… remember that small businesses have limited payroll and headcount, it might not make sense to spend time marketing somewhere that has a smaller audience.
I think it’s okay, the Impossible stuff gets pretty close to what they’re imitating.
But I also think I’m not really their target audience… like I’m okay with a veggie burger tasting like veggie. I’m not really looking for something that tastes like beef or whatever. These products like the Impossible burger aren’t targeting vegetarian/vegan shoppers, maybe their niche are the meat eaters curious about trying to cut down on meat consumption which is okay.
There’s definitely an opportunity to lower or even eliminate all the factory farming and animal abuse if some sort of meat replacement manages to catch on in a big way. We’re not quite there yet but you never know how things will work out in the future.
The eggs are healthy, not sure what style eggs you’re used to but if you just want a different variation on that try something like scrambled eggs with kale/spinach + salad on whole wheat bread or tortilla or similar. I’d also toss in some tomato and red onion. Now that I’m thinking about it avocado would probably go well with that combo too.
A lot of people like hard boiled eggs for lunch, it’s not really my thing but you could do those and slice them up into a salad, wouldn’t take too long once you do it every day.
Superjail, and probably Mr Pickles too.
At least with Superjail the animation was so off the wall that it was worth a watch if that’s your thing. Mr Pickles was just so devoid of anything and the animation was terrible, I stopped watching it a few episodes in.
Not sure if that applies to smaller venues, or Ticketmaster’s other brands (TicketWeb). There are shows at a small venue I go to that are usually sold with Dice tickets, yet there is this one promoter whose own shows at the venue are always sold on TicketWeb. These are all small indie type shows, small venue… my hunch is that the promoter is just too lazy to switch to anything else.
It’s tough since you’re basically stuck with having to use whatever the promoter / venue is using for ticketing. I do hate it when shows are using Ticketmaster / TicketWeb, like why is that even necessary when other options exist?
In the NYC area I’ve seen shows use other ticketing systems like Dice, See Tickets, Eventbrite, KYD, etc. so other stuff does exist beyond the Ticketmaster monopoly. Personally I think Dice might be the best one, it’s nice to have the ability to let the venue resell your ticket via waitlist if you can’t go to the show for some reason - I think it only works for sold out events but still seems useful. Or the reverse, you can put yourself on a waitlist for a sold out show and maybe score a ticket if someone else decides they can’t go.
In the tutorial I read that sometimes it helps to enable secure boot
Just as an FYI, normally you would enable or disable secure boot before installing an OS, not after the fact. Otherwise you usually end up breaking the boot process.
Normally you should be able to hit Enter and then follow prompts to get into the BIOS. Maybe hit ENTER then just keep hitting whatever key you were using to get into the BIOS prior (F2, DEL, etc.).
If none of that works try powering off, removing the hard drive, then power back on & see if that lets you get back into the BIOS.
If that still doesn’t work I suspect the laptop is still stuck in power on mode, maybe the internal battery is keeping it on. Try to see if you can actually power it off for real e.g. hold the power button down for x seconds until you see lights go out. Try to keep an eye on how the laptop behaves when powered on vs lower power mode vs full power off.
Assuming I’ve already lost all friends/family then yeah, a cabin in the woods fending for myself sounds nice. Otherwise all things considered I’d try to be the friendly type, having more people in your group is usually better than being solo.
But all that probably means I’d die in the first year LOL. Most likely wouldn’t cut it being alone and starting out I’d probably have the bad luck of picking the wrong type of “friends”. To really stick it out in that sort of situation you probably have to manage to survive through a few groups of people starting out until you end up with a stable group of people willing to work together.
With tips I generally do 20% across the board so a bartender would get 20% just like a waitress. And it’s always better to have a happy bartender :)
That said I’m also in the northeast U.S. where everything is expensive so it sort of makes sense that the tips aren’t going to be cheap. Maybe I’d rethink the tipping if I was somewhere else less expensive.
I think it was a bottle of Miller draft, dad let me have a sip when I was 15 or so. It tasted so gross I stayed away from beer and alcohol until well into my 20’s, I just couldn’t understand why people drank that stuff.
Eventually realized not all beer tastes the same haha.
In the U.S. older people still get by fine without all this stuff. I have family that still has a landline, nothing else, so I guess maybe that’s #3 in your list. It does mean they physically have to go to places to get things done (e.g. physically go to a bank).
Older people don’t care as much about social life beyond visiting/seeing the people/relatives they’ve always been seeing. A smartphone isn’t required for that.
Agreed with the other comment, the context does matter.
I’ve been featured in one my coworker’s dreams apparently. Not in a weird way, she’s told me and the dream was very funny. More like an inside/office type joke that must have snuck into her dream state LOL.
Yup just started seeding the 64-bit PC DVD .iso since I figured I’d need it sooner or later, the .torrent links are listed there in the Debian download page https://www.debian.org/distrib/
And of course plenty of other Linux distros have their own torrent links.
I’ve returned back to an old job but I had left on good terms, and in fact my old boss ended up wanting to keep me around as a freelancer… eventually when my newer job wound down and I needed something more permanent it just kind of made sense to go back to the old job where the boss there still wanted me around anyway.
So when it is on good terms it’s easy. In your case it doesn’t sound like you left on great terms, and it is quite possible your former boss is going to give a bad recommendation on having the company allow you to come back. Personally I might consider that a burned bridge at this point, but hey anything can happen so all you can do is give it a go. My suggestion is to talk to your former boss and just accept blame for whatever they want to throw at you, and hope they at least give a neutral recommendation on you coming back to the company. In the end you’ll have a different boss anyway so coming in it’s a new start for you.
