Scientist. Lacemaker.
Verizon 5G, $35/month for the 300 mbps / 20 up plan (my needs are not huge, this does the TV streaming and the zoom meetings just fine).
Somerville MA. Was previously paying 3x that for crappy Astound service at half the speed.
Heh. You are welcome. This is how I found out too–a random discussion.
There’s a company near me that is piloting a mobile charging service. https://www.sparkcharge.io/
When the charges on our thru-way all failed over Memorial Day weekend, they provided the emergency service. I heard they were also in talks with AAA to be something that a tow truck could carry, or some emergency service vehicle.
Solutions exist. Just not yet at scale.
My EV came with a compressor in the trunk. Last time I needed to fill the tires it worked fine.
I didn’t even realize this until one day on the Nissan Leaf discussion boards, which led to a hilarious discussion of a whole bunch of us who had no idea we were carrying our own solution to this…
Ah, right. I was wondering if we could go back to the golden age of science blogs as all the other social channels were imploding…
I was still posting at reddit until recently–but I noticed that even the top items in r/science are getting half the score they used to.
Well, as one of my advisors used to say in grad school: “Evolve or die”. Nice to see you here too!
TIL that the moderation logs are public. That was kind of surprise to look through.
Huge, if true. I think a lot of people in rural areas need to be exposed to something besides Christian radio…
And it really could benefit people who have jobs that can be WFH now–people could live in these dying towns with real incomes, money to spend, and kids in the school systems.
I hope they get it right.
Do your fucking job, pharmacist. Or GTFO.
thank you–I have no idea how to add emojis here, but I’d give you the applause one if I could…
This is why I encouraging comments… I managed to drop kbin into mine :)

Agree–I’m seeing a lot of what I called ‘quiet quitting’ lately. The regulars are posting a lot less, or not at all. I’m not ready to burn-it-all-down, because I want to be able to lure people over later when this is a bit more mature. But it already feels different there.
Reddit is becoming an unusable garbage site.
'Tis.
I think those new drugs look really game-changing. I know they aren’t affordable yet, but soon the insurers will realize they are cheaper than the downstream costs of diabetes.
I was reading in the NYT yesterday that they were making people change behavior not just on hunger, but on the “food noise” that a lot of people have. So this will change the situation in a household and might have additional social consequences for people’s consumption.

Feel free to share the love of history and science! I have no idea how to cross post properly yet. No credit required, just take it.
Oh, I was wondering how to report issues. Thanks for that.
But my visibility task is a much lower priority than the one OP describes. They have a lot of stuff going on, and I can wait.
[realizing I want some kind of bookmark feature for this…]
I put alt text in my kbin uploads, but then I couldn’t find it later.
I would also like to be able to preview my image as I’m writing the description. I have to keep looking back at my stored one to try to do it well, and I’m failing.
This is my current favorite designation.
