    I just picked up reading again recently, so I have compiled a huge list of books to read. I watched the expanse, so probably want to get through my list before I think about reading the book series. Maybe the others seasons will be renewed by then.

    I bought some really nice watch off Temu for $12 and it lasts days. I didn't know if id wear a smartwatch, so i started with that. It's lasts probably 5-7days. I've heard a lot of great reviews on garmins compared to Samsung, pixel, etc. I don't care about all the fancy stuff, just want the time, steps, and texts.

    I assume the dev didn't just make the app and think he can just retire, it was just one income stream for other stuff they develop and sell, but point taken.

    My question is, what costs are associated with it? The app was essentially built, the dev needed to make some changes and link to the new API which should be free now? Generally curious, because I previously paid $3 for the pro app on Reddit.

    Does the connect app have comment navigation to jump to parent comments? I couldn't find it for weeks and I'm now using sync because it's so polished.

    Is that available yet, or he's developing it? Or you have to pay ultra?

    Edit: nevermind, found it on the sidebar not under settings.

    I paid for the sync app on Reddit back when it was like $2 or 5. I'm not paying $99 to remove ads. I know there are dev costs, but there aren't any API costs here right?

    I'll still use Sync here until I see what Boost brings over it's released.

  • TIL that tea is most popular drink in the world other than plain water. More tea is consumed worldwide than all other manufactured drinks combined (including coffee, soda, and alcohol).

    I'm thinking just shoot the US for instance, and the sheer amount of just alcohol that is consumed. Look at a sporting event, concert, or go to a bar on the weekend. This must have been based on some random poll or averages, but it can't be combined.

    Did you watch the show? I just finished and now want to start the books from the beginning so I can get the full series, but it's going to be a very long read.

  • I read The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, and take enjoyed it. Read another book, then started reading Devil and the Dark Water by the same author. I got about 25% through and just decided to drop it for something else. I'm not an avid reader so i never know if I should stay committed or not.

    Agreed. I really like the app for browsing posts, but don't like it for comment jumping. Jerboa for instance has the buttons at the bottom.

    Doesn't the insurance have an onus in understanding of cost of repairs to vehicles they cover? How can they only offer$1600?

    Also, I thought Tesla and others were also looking at these unibody designs for manufacturing purposes.

  • Just came here from reddit, making my first post. I played NMS last year for about 40hrs then kind of lost interest. Starfield looks a lot like NMS, but with a lot more content and action. Is anyone going to be trying it out?
