I've noticed that most people nowadays, myself included, don't use mics when they play. There's not a lot of banter or trash talk in lobbies anymore.

Moka pot coffee is definitely strong. If that's your only coffee maker, I'd just dilute that with more hot water.

An Aeropress is less concentrated in my experience, and it's pretty easy to use. I prefer iced coffee unless it's cold out, so I fill the collector with ice before I brew. The melted water dilutes it nicely, in my opinion.

> Or even worse, your account made it onto some pre-shared blacklist so you'll be invisible before you say a word.

Seems to me like people who subscribe to a blocklist that I'm on aren't people I want to be visible to/communicate with.

At the moment, you can do that, but not with an app hosted on the Play Store. I use a git client to sync my notes between my computers and my phone. But I had to get the app from FDroid, because it required the read all files permission to track changes.

I used to fly Virgin America twice a week. That song would get stuck in my head every time I checked in. I still can sing most of it.

> Kobo's store does have DRM, but it's easily bypassed by Calibre

I'd say this is the case for Amazon as well, if you have an actual Kindle. I was able to convert my whole library to standard epubs last weekend using Calibre.

> I've lost more than one bike ride because the start/stop button was bumped on the Forerunner and it turned out not to be recording.

I've had that happen to me during yoga and boxing workouts I've recorded. There's a way to lock the physical buttons (at least on my Instinct watch), which requires multiple presses to stop/start a workout. IIRC, it's by holding the light button.

OK, I'll bite: What happened to the first amendment in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic?

> My employer almost called the cops on me, because I didn't drive in one day and used uber.

What was their reasoning behind this? Unknown car at a secure facility?

Android has moved to a file system model that generally locks app out of having full control of any folder but the one created for the app. The only way to let your app have read-write-create permissions is to request access to the whole file system. And IIRC, you have to get permission from Google to even request it.

It makes it very difficult to have something like a Git client on Android as well, as the permission to request file system access is not easily granted.
