Sounds very cool but the 2022 F-150 HEV model was pretty impressive was well [0].

People make such a big deal about this, but there was a Ford F-150 HEV [0] released in late 2021 (2022 model) that no one seems to talk about. It used the Ford Hybrid PowerBoost V6 engine (3.5L F150 FHEV), and seems to be more than sufficient. Though I haven't driven it myself.

Yes, but if you use the right pen it helps a lot! Good reference: https://unsharpen.com/what-are-the-best-pens-for-moleskine-n...

I've found that the Kindle app is surprisingly good at reading comics. Pair it with a tablet and Libby and you are good to go... at least as a casual reader.

Builtwith.com is excellent for domain association. They have some very good common keys like GTM container, GA etc.

What's a good information source for this? Like is this just something built on the domain tools api? Or is more of a front end for dig?

Congrats though, great looking site and it's super snappy.

Totally dystopian. We need more dumb devices like https://non-smart.com

This is great! Does simply owning the record give them the right to play/distribute the track? Or is it because they are out of copyright and in the public domain?

Yes, most government data is awful but it's usually at least workable. That's why sites like sec.report and https://fccid.report exist. https://www.ecfr.gov is actually good though.

Not at all an expert in the space, but Flexport comes to mind.

This channel goes deeply (well, as deeply as is possible) into ballpoint pens, fountain pens, and other writing instruments:

I've had it a few times and it's very good, but not better than most good rice. I think people mostly just don't have nice or fresh rice, they fine Carolina gold which is very well branded and think it's the best. It's not hard to find better than average rice online[0].

Wonderful gallery! Interesting sharpening technique in image 7 with a blunt writing tip. Typically you'd seen a more angled cone [0] and a sharper end, but I guess this means no color is wasted when doing the initial sharpening?

Anyone note a list of his brands? I think I see some Faber-Castell but can't ID anything else.

What a weird phrase: “how about nah”. Is this a reference to something I’m totally missing out on? I can barely pay attention to that point the article make when it’s framed in such an odd and unclear context.

I get wanting to have style to your writing but not at the expense of clarity.
