I think LDS folks have a little too much trust in other LDS folk. “Brother So-in-so works for doTerra, Sister So-in-so sells it and says it cleared up her eczema. These people wouldn’t lie to me!” And so they take whatever they say as truth

Yes. They are forcing them all to migrate to Ms accounts.

I haven’t looked into it because it seemed straight forward. But now you have me curious. The clients always authenticated before launching the game and required a valid session to join even private servers. I’ve assumed the change just dis

I've done a handful of National Park trips in the last year and a half (Yellow Stone, a few in southern Utah). I would say National Park trips are "expensive" in ways other than the cash it takes to get in. We tried to plan o

Same where I am. Most of the city has competition because it’s most new developments out here and a few fiber companies were able to get in the ground early. My neighborhood is older so we only have Comcast. But Comcast buried fiber here to

There are a few patterns here I didn’t dive into in my original comment above. 1. I don’t use a lot of apps. I prefer web for most things. It turns out the apps I do download are from bigger companies (YouTube, Netflix). It’s annoying to be

I don’t have time to expound too much, but I really love America’s Test Kitchen’s two Gluten Free books “The How Can It Be Gluten Free Cookbook” volumes 1 and 2. Every recipe we’ve tried have been great. But the reason I wanted to share it

I follow the same rule. But I will also then go one star review it. I will also one-star review any app that prompts me to review it by first asking me if I like it (sneaky sneaky!)

FWIW: I think most members of the LDS church have a good sense of humor for things like this done in good taste, even if they're not 100% representative of their beliefs. source: am one myself. This is true for the other members around

Sorry and welcome to the club! Unsolicited referral: America’s Test Kitchen has a cook book series called “How Can It be Gluten Free Cookbook”. We have 2 of them, I think there’s only 2. Literally everything we’ve tried has been outstanding

I haven’t ever heard of this. Seems really interesting. Thanks. Another thought I’ve had for a long time: why not just lift the limit on Congress? My understanding is that Congress set a law to cap it (as opposed to the constitution specify

Pretty sure Cell Phones in the US are still able to call 911 even without a sim card or an active plan. So a sim-less phone would still allow for an emergency call in that sense.

GameMaker and RPG Maker just never quite stuck with me the way Zelda Classic did. But my kids are getting to that age where they want to "make games". So I'm hoping something like that would be fun for them. I remember gettin

Zelda Classic holds a special place in my heart. My older brother downloaded it thinking it was just a Zelda 1 clone. I discovered it had a quest editor. And it was a very magical moment for me. I spent hundreds of hours never completing an

I can relate to that quote (as I'm sure most people can). When I was in middle-school, Pokemon TCG was still really new and popular ... "with children". Me and my friends played together, but I was horrified of the idea of an

You know, I remember many times on my neighborhood’s Facebook post age people saying things like “thanks whomever reported my barking dog. I had no idea it was a problem now I owe $500. Why didn’t you just tell me?!” or whatever. So I was l

We’re planting clover in our park strip to augment the lawn. We had some naturally move in last year and we really liked it So we’re going to help it out. It was soft, and keeping the lawn green/alive/pretty in the park strip is n

Also, I want to be able to specify areas I’m familiar with somehow. So instead of it telling me turn by turn how to leave my neighborhood, for example, it just says “leave the neighborhood going east”. Then it could say “you want to be goin

Tangent, but I thought it was a funny commentary: I was watching the olympics with my kid (<12yo) and the Coinbase commercial came on (Didn't see it during the superbowl, but I assume they were the same?). And after the commercial e

I know there’s some serious chicken/egg issue here, and solves a different problem than Google or DDG. but I think what I need is a way to “Like” or “Favorite” a page I’m on (maybe just a bookmark?) and that triggers my personal search

Not only invasive but restaurant websites are so buggy. For example, I tried ordering a Papa Murphy’s pizza the other day online. It used one of the major food ordering sites. It described “toppings. Pick 5. $2 per topping for extra topping

Tangential and honest question: how do eviction moratoriums help? I can see how a short ban on evictions can help prevent a spike in a homelessness crisis, but long term I really struggle with it. Is the assumption that all/most landlo

Blizzard's (not sure about Activision games) ongoing support for most of those platforms has been pretty crap recently anyway. Diablo2 Resurrected removed mac support but they did add consoles. OW only support Windows. I guess SC2 and

NESticle has nearly as much nostalgia for me as plugging in the NES. There was this magical feeling at the time. I can play my favorite games on my computer? Don’t have to blow in the cartridge? Save states???

I agree and would never advocate termination of any common utility service, especially not water. I was careful to say that depending on those things alone and pretending like everything is honkey-dorey 100% is silly. It was just one exampl

I bought an HP Color Laser printer a few years ago to avoid the Ink Jet nonsense. Turns out it’s not Ink Jet, it’s HP. Lessons learned. The printer worked flawlessly until I went through my first toner cartridges (the carts shipped with the
