Brandywine coffee roasters. They’re based in Delaware. I’ve been blown away by the quality of their subscription. Best beans I’ve purchased in the US.

I’m GOING to the Olympics this year. Totally stoked to travel to France. It is the only vacation my wife and I are taking this year.

And other major expansions for elden ring and FFXIV released recently. There’s potential overlap in the player base. 90% is a big dip though.

No, I have a subscription to Brandywine - they’re based out of Wilmington, Delaware.

It looks like what happened is that the roasters listed didn’t inform the FDA properly of their roasting processes, which led the FDA to assume that the coffee may be a vector that is conducive to botulism.

No cases were reported because of this, but the recall is out of an abundance of safety.

Mad love for Qobuz.

Very good movie

I can snap the tendon over my knuckles kinda hard to where it makes a popping/snapping sound. If I do it close to someone’s cheek, it stings like releasing a tiny rubber band.

I can also move my ears independent of one another.

Comma at the wrong place in your title makes it confusing and hard to read

Wow, this is great. Thanks for sharing

Private company in what way? The company is publicly traded - there are rules and regulations that organizations have to abide by. it’s not totally lawless current state … They’re legally beholden to shareholders to maximize value. They can do what they like but probably don’t want them allowing certain folks to have a platform (moderating the platform). Meta uses the grey area to manipulate and addict users, that’s just their business practice to drive value and generate views/engagement with their platform.

Agree this dude is unhinged.

From the article:

“Public filings also showed that Huffman and Reddit’s chief operating officer, Jennifer Wong, were paid $286 million in 2023, including stock and option awards (the value accrues over several years, and the current cash value is substantially lower).”

Were they actually compensated that amount in cash? Or is this assuming that the stock value actually amounts to something.

Obviously compensated too much, but it looks like the compensation total is being obfuscated for shock value.

The Librem 5 is a Linux phone that the reviewer tried to use as their daily driver for a week. However, they found several issues that made it impractical for regular use including poor battery life, a subpar camera without basic features, and lack of compatibility with many popular apps. The reviewer also noted problems with the phone randomly powering off and convergence mode with the next dock being unstable. While the reviewer thought the Librem 5 was a cool device, they ultimately decided it was not ready to replace their main phone due to these limitations and instability issues. The reviewer expressed interest in reviewing other Linux phones if provided to them.

Seppuku

But for real idk. My wife is an obgyn and I’m Hispanic soooo I feel like we might be in danger.

Ai summary of the article if you don’t wanna click the link:

A recent poll found that 76% of respondents agreed that Google CEO Sundar Pichai is comparable to Steve Ballmer, who led Microsoft during a period of decline. Both men took over from revolutionary founders as business managers focused on profits rather than innovation. However, under Pichai’s leadership, Google has lost its dominance in areas like search and AI, with competitors like OpenAI making strides. Many argue Google search has become cluttered with irrelevant results, while former employees say visionary leadership is lacking. There is a sense that Pichai’s Google is no longer the innovative company it was and risks losing further ground to emerging technologies if it does not recapture its start-up spirit.

I agree with you. I still use Nova, they had a solid update recently and my phone is feeling snappier than ever. It does concern me, however, that they’re tracking every interaction with my phone now 😮‍💨

I’m normally very privacy centric - very conflicted about Nova Launcher because I like the launcher so much…

Here’s an AI-generated summary for ya if you don’t want to click on any links:

On April 8, 2024, a solar eclipse will be visible from parts of North America. While a total eclipse will only be seen within a narrow band, a partial eclipse can be observed by nearly everyone on the continent. During a partial eclipse, the moon appears to take a bite out of the sun, leaving it shaped like a crescent. This crescent view will last for several hours as the moon increasingly covers the sun’s disk. An interesting aspect is that sunlight will seem to weaken as more of the sun is obscured, even for those outside the path of totality.

Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. You’re not off base. My family is Hispanic and my mom would love it if I lived with her till I’m 40.

Yes - I didn’t have time to watch the video and wanted a text summary. Thought others might find it useful

Shuji Nakamura was a researcher at Nichia who was determined to create the first blue LED, which had eluded scientists for decades. Through innovative crystal growth techniques and materials discoveries, he succeeded in developing bright blue and white LEDs in the early 1990s. This breakthrough enabled LEDs to be used for full-spectrum lighting. Nichia’s fortunes grew enormously as a result, though Nakamura was not properly compensated for his invention. Today, LEDs powered by Nakamura’s blue LED technology are ubiquitous and have brought enormous energy savings worldwide.

Something interesting I found was that Nakamura persisted in his research for blue LEDs against the wishes of his company management, who saw it as a waste of resources. His stubbornness and belief in his work paid off by solving a problem that had stumped the electronics industry for 30 years.
