I really like my Garmin Fenix. Got someone else a Garmin Instinct as a gift. Previously, I got a Samsung and it was a buggy piece of junk. The Garmin has been extremely reliable, getting regularly doused underwater in saltwater when crashin

As a STEM working remotely in the area of this newspaper, I'd definitely consider a non-stem job that paid more than what I make working remotely...but I haven't seen an obvious opportunity like that.

Agreed with what the others said. Kind of like a custard when ripe. But, what I didn't like was it was overwhelmingly like the worst parts of the flavor of banana, amplified. Maybe it was the ones that I tried and there are other varie

Man, hadn't heard that name in a while. Looks like he's still around. His twitter points to his homepage, but that looks to have been taken over by someone with the same name. All of his stuff must be on facebook now, shame.

I tried them when I was living in Ohio and they had the Pawpaw festival. Not my thing. The ones I had fresh were too weird tasting for me. I did like some of the secondary products like beer or other things made from them, but the fruit the

I can't comment on heart disease but I recently started adding running. Mostly in the form of running to and from the gym to lift weights, but I will sometimes throw in a 5k, even throwing in something like 7k today. What I've not

They keep breaking zoom too. The "enhancements" are reminding me of when Evernote went from their original UI to a new one, making everything take at least 3-5x more effort/tapping/clicking and I just gave up on it entir

“Why don’t children leave the house?” I did, until I was at a certain age (roughly early teenager). Then, there were a bunch of news shows talking about men driving around in brown vans abducting kids. Or kids just smoking pot at the parks.

Wonder if hot staging caused issues with both vehicles or it was two separate issues.

So they are trying a boostback. Are they going to try to land it or? NVM they said they were just going to let it splash.

I'm hoping that this one makes the 2nd stage partial (or full?) orbit. This thing is a gamechanger.

When I see a lot of this voice replication I am reminded of something. (Dune series spoiler) For example, Duncan Idaho keeps being brought back with cloning tech, over and over, for centuries, because Leto II just likes him. Over and over,

IIRC Thomas Goyard hit 41kts on the foil, but may not be "official". The speed canals where they hit really high speeds on fins are in special areas that most people will never be able to experience that have no wind disruptions a
