Who makes your tv?
You can do quite a bit of tweaks to mitigate the phone home stuff and ads with projectivy and ADB TV.

I just meant blending the last of one batch/bottle with the beginning of the next like in a decanter.

Critically, this does not work with iced coffee. It does work with whiskey though.

- Comment on New Xfinity router motion-detecting feature stokes privacy fears — feature powered by Wi-Fi signals 5 weeks ago:
With Att fiber, I had to use their gateway or not have internet. You can set it to passthrough mode but I didn’t really trust that even with my own router and their wifi disabled.
On Comcast/xfinity copper 2.5, I am 100% using my own modem and router. They kept pushing me to get a streaming box, thermostat, camera, whatever the fuck else and it took several steps to get just the basic service.

- Comment on How bad is it that Israel has attacked Iran? 1 month ago:
Realistically I am less worried about a proper military to military engagement and more of an asymmetrical response.
They don’t need to have a nuclear program to do a dirty bomb or other similar attack on a civilian population. It doesn’t even have to be an official Iranian response directly, there are enough proxies around there that could fuck shit up for a lot of people.
As for the likelihood of this, its a crapshoot. Someone with more connections or experience can tell you that.

I had the opposite happen one time. Our provider came out to check our electric meter because our usage dropped significantly when we had our old AC replaced. They thought we were stealing power and came back a aecond time to double check.
- Comment on how did you and your partner change after having a baby? 2 months ago:
If you have a good foundation for a relationship, an equitable partnership with open and compassionate communication, shared empathy, and respect for eachother, you are going to be in reasonably good shape.
The thing is, the process of having a kid is stressful, once they are here, it is physically taxing and can be emotionally draining. You don’t get sleep in regular or meaningful amounts or patterns, your pattern is disrupted but you also have to do all the other things you had to do before to maintin your life. Chores and work get less time and things pile up. Which makes it harder to do other things you have/want to do. Even if you find the time, you may not have the energy or mental capacity to do it. It can be a very lonely experience even with a good partner.
That said, if you remember, its you and your partner working together for the baby, for eachother, or against the problem, its manageable. You WILL need to adjust to it but it gets easier over time.

Don’t look at your shirt, shoes, socks, pants, hat, water bottle, or even you camera either. If you packed your lunch, you likely see a brand there too in the wrapper.
