I don't have any actual research, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Pixel itself doesn't really make money at all. One of those "get people hardcore into the Google ecosystem to get their money/data" things.

I greatly appreciate your comments and clarification, and I don't mean this in a rude way but... that's not gentle for most of us ๐Ÿ˜…

It's mentioned in the bottom left. Whoever made this has a problem with their ownership having been Russian in the past.

Plug for Medito, which is a free non-profit for guided meditations. Not sure if the apps are open-source but still, they're a good organization in stark contrast to the many other meditation companies that are very much for-profit.

Yup, you got my point exactly! Appreciate ya.

For Star Trek, there is an in-universe explanation which is essentially that Humanity and many other classic humanoid species you see (Klingons, Vulcans, Romulans, et al) were all essentially "seeded" by the same ancient race of aliens. That race (the Progenitors) evolved way earlier than everyone else and found themselves alone in the galaxy, so they got down to the seeding. (I know this has also been touched on in S5 of Discovery so please forgive me if they changed anything lol)

Real bummer but also not surprising, sadly :(

And yet he still finds plenty of time to harass trans women on Tumblr...

Make sure we give proper credit to CatCosplay!

I don't know that my absolute favorite artist has a bad song. But here are a few songs I hate by artists that I love:

Bloc Party (original lineup/first 4 albums): 3 x 3. Not sure why, just feels anxious in a bad way? Always a skip for me.

Keane: Ishin Denshin (You've Got To Help Yourself). This is a cover from an EP so maybe too deep of a cut, but man do I hate this track. Just feels cloying and awkward. Like they were trying to recreate the original but were too in awe of it.

Peter Bjorn and John: The Feeling. The first track from their true followup to Writer's Block. Just feels like it's a song that's weird for the sake of being weird.

I think a significant part of this problem is that, from what we can see in the photo, they 100% should have pulled forward so that they didn't entirely block the sidewalk. Someone coming through there on a wheelchair or with a stroller would have a real bad time. It also looks like it's out in the road a little, which is very inconsiderate as well.

Probably wanna delete this before the Irvings put a hit out on you

 

Whether it be to do your job, get your schoolwork done, clean your house, work on your creative passion, etc.

Bonus points if you're someone without reasonable self-control so saying something like "I can only have a cookie after I do this/while I do this" doesn't work for you and you're just going to eat the cookie and not do it.

 

Doing some research on things that I will absolutely never do. Let's say a nefarious party wanted to download a video from Youtube, say, an episode of the TV show Community. The downloaders I have researched for Linux (Youtube Downloader Plus + Parabolic) will not let me download any episodes that have DRM. Are there any that DO let you do so, preferably while removing the DRM so it could be used on Jellyfish or Plex?

 

Hey all,

Just curious - what are the news outlets you like? Obviously not thinking about the paper being struck right now. Is there much of a difference in quality/trustworthiness of the TV news stations?

Otherwise, I've been checking our PublicSource and Pittsburgh Union Progress.

 

(technically)

VAMOS COLUMBUS, DON'T GIVE UP ANY STUPID GOALS!

 

Had been reported before but is now official, a mutual contract termination. Thankful for him helping us win an MLS Cup, but this seems like the right move for all parties, sadly. ~~Catch him signing in Romania to be close to his idol Andrew Tate.~~

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/1580433 A slightly rainy night here in Pittsburgh but a delicious 2-0 over Detroit. Hounds solidifying their place as #1 in the USL Championship (with Sacramento Republic 3 points down but a game in hand).

 

Bob Lilley for Manager of the Year

 

How's everyone feeling? This game is a massive question mark for me. I can't get a good read on how Portland is this year, plus Nancy and Cucho being out makes this game very intriguing.

Part of me says, if we've got Morris ready to go, throw him in there and move Matan in for Cucho - but if he's not available I could also see swapping JRR in for Cucho (though they're dramatically different players).

 

Hi all. My partner saw online about Costco having big packs of Morningstar Farms Chik Patties/Grillers/etc. but we haven't been able to find it at our local Costco in Pittsburgh. Wondering if this a regional thing or if it might be an equivalent to Aldi's "Special Finds"? Any input would be appreciated!

 

Hey y'all, allow me to be the first to do an "asking for advice" post on here. Anyone have recommendations for realtors that are based in/specifically focus on the City of Pittsburgh? I feel like I've seen way too many who are like "Pittsburgh Realtor!!! Based in Cranberry Township (or other far out suburb/exurb)" and that I want to avoid that hassle. We have to live inside the city limits due to my partner's job with the city (and honestly, we'd probably be living in the city anyways). Looking primarily at neighborhoods in the South Side with good public transit options.

Any advice is appreciated!
