Waiting in the post office yesterday to drop off a simple, carrier-ready package reminded me of this bit - @GlennF@zeppelin.flights

I’m always amazed when I see that someone has “news” alerts enabled on their phone. They seem to provide maximum distraction for minimal importance and utility. www.theguardian.com/media/202…

Slate gravestone flanked by one British and one U.S. flag and potted flowers in cemetery.

Reading’s Memorial Day cemetery decoration includes markers for pre-Independence service, too. It’s a good reminder that history is complicated.

Just curious, @caseyliss@mastodon.social : is the lack of interest in smaller EVs like Niro EV or the coming EV3 due to the “boring” 7ish sec 0-60 times or because they’re generally targeted at the sub-$50K end of the market? The EV3 isn’t wildly different from Golf/GTI size. @atpfm@mastodon.social

Are podcasts with bad dynamic ad insertion really how most people experience podcasts? I tried a new podcast for an interesting topic, and after the second mid-sentence interruption by a bizarrely irrelevant ad, I deleted the episodes and unsubscribed. What a horrible listener experience.

Return-to-office recommendations:
- a small electric kettle, such as Bodum’s Bistro
- AeroPress (and bring a small supply of freshly ground coffee in a sealed container)
- an insulated coffee mug with lid, like YETI’s Rambler
- an inexpensive portable monitor that connects via USB-C
