For me Mysterious Universe takes the cake. A couple of Aussie guys talking about anything and everything paranormal, big foot, lucid dreaming, missing 411, stone tape theory, mediums, hauntings, abductions, time travel, ufos, men in black, remote viewing, alternative history theories, etc. They don’t really delve into conspiracy theories which I appreciate.
They’ve been at it for ages, and they are on season 32 of the regular show and 30 of the plus show (2 seasons per year). Most shows they discover a book or essay and do a deep dive into it, explaining and linking it to other research.
My main draw is how they don’t take anything too seriously, and are able to objectively present a theory about “black ops stealth [person of short stature]”, mixed with “the meaning behind your Thai diving instructor’s tramp stamp”, and follow it by well researched interviews with authors and researchers. Giving facts and letting listeners draw their own conclusions.
All that to say, I’ve listened back to season 11 so far, and have thousands of hours of content. Highly recommend.
Yep, so demoralizing for the driver.
They are, this is talking about the likely replacement of Logan for the remainder of the 2024 season.
I feel like it should be “Jean”, non? If it was a Fiat or an Alfa Romeo, Giovanni would be a great fit. Maybe you have your own context or reasoning though ☺️.
Omg there’s sound to this nightmare too 🤢
Cool idea!
I was going to mention a few games to check out but they were all already mentioned, so I will suggest the one that wasn’t brought up, Star Crusader. Space combat game with a great story, fun game play, high replay value, and great voice acting for a game from 1994. And the ending blew my mind, still remember the moment and my shock to this day. I have my original CD and the jacket in a memorabilia box haha, one of only a handful of things I kept from those days.
Good find! They also have multiple shirt, sweatshirts and a mug.

Yeah it exported for me into the folder and file format I specified. Tile was expectedly large and there was a thumbnail preview, but when I tried to open it, the two image viewers I tried gave the same error message. I’ll try it again at some point for sure though.
Very cool piece of software. I played around with it a few weeks back with some scanned slides and it gave good results. Some of the models were better for general objects and background while other models were better for people.
The only issue was (and I admittedly didn’t spend any time to try and resolve it), that I couldn’t open the output photos outside of the app. I could see the result in the app, but opening the file directly gave an error.
Yeah, this is not new and not shrinkflation… here in Canada the 440ml has been around for over 20 years in multi-packs, and the 500ml is available as individual cans.
While I agree with the general sentiment, these are both standard sizes for Guinness and the 440ml 4 packs and 8 packs have been around for well over 20 years. Here in Canada, the 440ml are available in the multi packs while the 500ml are sold as individual cans. I’ve seen the same in the states. I think OP just saw the smaller volume can next to the slightly bigger one and jumped on the shrinkflation hate train without checking.
Not sure about chromecast, but for AirPlay you don’t need internet connection. It’s probably the same for both, but I use an AppleTV and used a Xiaomi Mibox 3 before that, and would just cast to those if I need.
Well that’s just it, mostly unnecessary if you’re using it as essentially a monitor (like both of us are doing). Most of the updates would have to do with their smartcast OS or additional features or apps. The updates could also have additional support for devices as new hardware comes out, bug fixes (or additional bugs), speed improvements, etc.
They could definitely implement hardware that automatically connects to wifi without your permission. I guess a solution to that would be to connect to your own internet at home, maybe on a separate subnet that is blocked from accessing the internet.
I have a Vizio as well. It’s been disconnected from the internet for at least 2 years now and functions fine. I guess I miss out on updates, and if I press the Vizio “home” button it freezes up as it’s trying to connect for 20-30 secs before I can do anything, but works fine with an external Android or Apple box. You obviously won’t be able to use any of their apps if you disconnect from the internet, but it’s 100% worth it.
Don’t forget our bee friends drink water!
I’ve put a couple of small bowls in and around my flower beds, with small flat stones for them to sit on while they drink.
Adium… now that’s a name I have not heard for a while. Used to have a super nice customized version to chat with friends on various platforms. It was amazing. Thanks for the nostalgia trip!
I found the three newish Tomb Raider games to be a great mix of a sort of open world feel at times where you have things to explore, while being very much on rails. Each arc in the story gives you an area to explore and your actions in that area progress the story. You get some weapon and ability upgrades throughout. I came in not expecting much and couldn’t put the first one down. I think I finished Tomb Raider 2013 to 100% in about 20-25 hours and it was excellent. Will probably do another playthrough at some point, still haven’t played the third.
Holy, that’s so pretty! Would love to have some in my garden.
Depends on the ISP. Many don’t allow you to use one they didn’t provide.
Ya you’re right some of their views are 👎. I actually stopped listening to the podcast sometime over the pandemic when they had a super right wing guest on and they let loose and agreed with his views which was uncommon. Didn’t finish the episode, but came back to it a few years later and I recall hearing Aaron back track. Some of their newer episodes are still interesting and they seem to be more balanced, though I’ve been listening to the pre pandemic episodes.
