The car was the slow part, I have an S23+.
The wrestling was figuring out getting BT audio ONLY.
And until I reset the head unit to factory previous users, contacts, radio stations and destinations were all stored there.
Not great on a rental car.
Not the whole phone obviously. But syncing all my contacts, recent calls etc.
I’m happy with a Bluetooth connection to the stereo. I have maps on my phone.
Fuck carplay/android auto in the ear.
I hate getting a rental car and I just want my music, but it tries to hijack and download my whole phone.
I want to get in, connect my phone and go. Not 20 minutes wrestling it for control.
Digital displays are fine. It’s just a display. But controls should be manual (buttons, dials, etc) that can be operated with eyes on road.
We get the option to vote by mail for free weeks in advance.
You don’t even have to get off your fat arse.
I notice negatives to it as well.
When I trim the driveway hedge I have to pick any errant cuttings out of the rose garden. So I spend about 1-2 hours looking for one type of leaf amongst another type of leaf.
When I close my eyes for the next 12 or so hours all I can see is the type of leaf I was looking for, my brain is so locked on to looking for the pattern.
It’s a nack. See one, the others will likely be in a tent shaped layout. Some brains are just very good at visual pattern matching.
I have an unbroken record for being the person that finds anything tiny and lost. In school the kids called me “night vision”.
Lose a ball over the fence an 1am. 10 people looking. Can’t find it. Get me to look and I find it in 1 minute or less. Lost a diamond or earring backing in shag carpet? I’ll find it ao fast you won’t believe it.
I’ve occasionally had to pretend it takes longer to find it, just so they don’t think I pranked them and took it.

It’s not very durable, I don’t recommend it. Inherited it. Fine a a freebee, but I wouldn’t spend money. And if it starts to chip just toss it out.
Getting rid of Teflon around here too.
I like the process of maintaining cast-iron pans. And they get better theore I use them. Definately better than the constant deterioration of the Teflon ones.
Enamel coated steel is ok. Just steel is ok too.
But I really like the cast iron ones.
Fuck off Israel propoganda bot.
Thing is, I like the taste of Alcohol, but I no longer like how it makes me feel.
Tipsy is fun, but rapidly degenerates into a headache.
Weed doesn’t make me feel shit. But it just puts my wife to sleep.
Alcohol for her is like weed for me, except weed isn’t legal here without a medical prescription, and alcohol is ubiquitous with social situations.
I’m autistic with ADHD, so sober social situations are already hard. It gets worse when others are drinking as they get loud and incoherent.
I just wish being stoned was as acceptable, socially.
Booze I like when limited to a single drink (2 pints in the case of Guiness) A lot of cold crisp largers on a hot day after yard work. Guinness (acquired taste, that once gained never fades) Baileys Bailey’s + vanilla vodka Espresso martini when made fresh and strong. (2 shots fresh espresso, 2 shots kaluha, 1.5 shots 100 proof vodka)
Yubikey enforcement is ass in AD.
We’ve moved to SilverFort. It allows WAAAY more visibility and control over the things that matter, and it’s diagnostics and easy policy generation from lookups is great.
At night when the espresso machine is too loud
