I can't turn it off on the phone, which means I'm forced to use it with the Echo Auto. It used to take a second or two to schedule a reminder on my Google calendar, now it's more like 10 seconds between the delay in actually adding it, then telling Alexa to fuck off, I wasn't trying to start a conversation.

Amazon's really shooting themselves in the foot by pissing off loyal customers here.

Amazon won't ship them to CA addresses...

You ever wonder how many people Westley killed to maintain his cover as the Dread Pirate Roberts?

Or the fact that instead of retiring the role once he's got his happily-ever-after, he sets up his new bestie to keep up the tradition of leaving no survivors?

Nor are most structures in Asia.

1- Steal a credit card number with your time-freezing abilities

2- Place a to-go order with a fake email

3- Wait outside the restaurant until they say it's ready for pickup

4- Freeze time, go inside, enjoy your meal.

5- Bonus: after unfreezing time, call to verify that it's ready. When they mysteriously can't find it, tell them to cancel the order and hope that the person whose card you stole doesn't read their statement carefully.

"You found fingerprints at the scene, correct?"

"Yes, however, they were too smudged to be useful."

"So you're saying that my client's fingerprints weren't at the scene!"

"No, I'm saying that the evidence was insufficient to prove it one way or another."

The California Science Center is going to display the Endeavour stacked, and I was lucky enough to be the only person in the room with it for about fifteen minutes. I can't wait for people to see it.

It's really a question of legs vs torso.

My head clears the roof in cars I can't steer because my knee is pinned between the wheel and center console. My dad had the opposite issue, which made buying anything the two of us could drive a challenge.

You also have to deal with redesigns-- I wound up in a Corvette after not fitting in the Z3, SLK, or Boxster, but the redesign in '19 made it undriveable.

I'll second the "try them on at auto shows" comment-- that's the fastest way to eliminate a bunch at once.

I'll move to the back when people start giving me the exit row on airplanes.

Worked at a place that moved to open office, and people showed up on day one to find headphones sitting at their desks.

At that point, just admit you're cheap bastards and it had nothing to do with communication.

You could smell the smoke as Dunk desperately tried to figure out how to try to spare his friend from future scandal, whilst also not wanting to crush his happiness.

They'll eventually fall for you if you stalk them long enough.

Who doesn't want someone with a whole 47 days training protecting your most elite athletes?

Being impressed, because Dad's in his mid-80s.

Living in a small apartment in L.A., my gaming PC is all it takes to keep the place warm.

Peter Dinklage. I'm 6'10", btw.

A fireable offense at any real job or under any administration that actually cared about American values.

Gotta cut back on that vanilla vodka, child.

For ~$100 or less, you can pick up a travel WiFi router. That's going to have a significantly stronger signal than running a hotspot off your phone, getting you speed and range.

Connect your phone to the same router and you'll get a way better connection.

Most travel routers will allow you to easily hook them into another network, like that client WiFi or your phone hotspot, so you can run your uploads through it as well without a lot of screwing around.

In other words, I set all my devices (cameras, phone, laptop) to talk to the travel router, then when I go to a new location, I spend 3 minutes connecting the travel router to their WiFi, and now everything has internet access.

One thing to be aware of-- Nikon's networking is pretty annoying, so you need to set up a NEW connection for every use. In other words, you need one STA connection for Snapbridge, a second STA connection for NX Mobile, a completely separate connection for camera-to-camera syncing...

I wrote a guide here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Nikon/comments/1jwdub4/connecting_to_snapbridge_and_nx_mobile_at_the/

This was written for the Z9, but it's the same for the Z8 and Z6iii, and probably any Z camera that supports STA.

Great. Call your representatives and tell them that. Point out how much you've contributed to their campaigns, and tell them that you're not donating again until they speak up. Change your voter registration to independent/no party.

I honestly don't care what your rationale was for your original decision, as long as you take the steps to correct it.

Like I'm going to risk hurting my back bending over that far...

I actually hate those seats. They're not long enough for my 42" inseam, and instead of manspreading my legs are forced into a 1' wide space. And you're basically sitting 3" away from your neighbor.

I'll take the old-school La-Z-Boy seats over these any day.

Most of the United flights between L.A. and Newark have two Economy seats with no seat in front of them; that's always my go-to.

I would add that the GOOD theater might do well, while the others languish.

Los Angeles is a great example-- if I can't get good seats at the AMC Burbank 16, I don't go.

Never mind that there's two other other theaters within a block; I want the big screen and the fancy seats.
