Same experience for me. If I wake up but lie still it's not nearly as accurate. What I do find useful is the Body Battery score, that generally maps well to how I feel the next day. And the Stress Score is an eerily good indicator of w

Power tool manuals are the worst. Often times when I buy a kitchen appliance it has some basic info on all of the functionality and perhaps a nice recipe book. Vitamix stood out here, and Breville is mostly okay but could be better. Power t

Zwift is pretty great for all of that. The biggest challenge I had with the whole ecosystem is finding something that doesn't have a monthly sub. I don't really do a lot of the racing / social aspects -- and I really only use

But isn't the screen totally useless without a sub? I don't know enough about Peloton, but I thought you couldn't really do much with it other than ride the thing without subscribing. I guess a jailbreak for the screen (is it

Zwift, maybe. But you need / should have a power meter to do that properly, and it works way better with a trainer that can adjust resistance on its own.

I was just delighted that "free little dude" worked on rescuing the creature early on in that game. It's also the first game I've ever played of the sort (as like a ten-year-old) and I spent weeks and weeks with it.

There are other ways public figures are treated differently in the courts in the US. It's much more difficult for them to prove libel or slander, for instance. They have to prove actual malice and intent, whereas a private citizen just

It'd be fine to not negotiate if you weren't going to use a voice that sounded famous. If I were offering something that let you make any kind of voice you want, I would definitely not market any voice that sounded familiar in any

Would love to see this get far enough for discovery to see how that all played out behind the scenes.

Being stuck in a free GSuite legacy account is even worse. Migrating to a regular Google account seems impossible (moving everything, losing purchases, changing my YouTubeTV and Google Fi subscriptions) and I get every feature later, if at

And now I can't upgrade my storage or share my YouTubeTV account from my old family Workspace account. And migrating off is basically impossible, it's so frustrating.

In the last part of the series from 2013 we have a chart that shows the Pentagon had spent over $10b modernizing their accounting systems (that was through 2013, no idea how much that number has grown.) I can't imagine anyone would mis

Yeah, I go hiking several times a week and I'd wear these all the time. I like listening to podcasts or music, but want to be able to hear any rattlesnakes or interesting birds, so the speakers seem like a plus. And being able to snap

I would hope that the government still wouldn't give Tesla any funding until they agreed to the rest of the rules within the bill. They need a way to charge without an app and an open communication standard to initiate a charge. Anyone

Hopefully government funding of any type will be withheld from Tesla until this happens. I don't care about the port as much as I care about anything with the right connector should be able to charge anywhere. Having to have the proper

I haven't truly felt the need for Android Auto or Car play in mine, but then it's my first vehicle in a long time so I'm not married to either. The navigation is mostly okay and I can send locations from my phone to the scree

Quick search suggests that United Food and Commercial Workers International Union has 1.3m members, so why not? And a union isn't always the best solution for some places, so it's easy for me to imagine smaller companies not havin

God I just heard of this game a month ago and it's like crack. I prefer Universal Paperclips because it had a nicely defined ending and more interesting phases, but Kittens Game is a nice diversion from the usual mobile fare. And a sin

Yeah, this is my only complaint about my Fenix 6. Total lack of any kind of app ecosystem. I don't even know how they'd manage to create one without some sort of open standard for delivering richer notifications to watches or some

I recently moved from Brooklyn to Phoenix. I'd have an easier time of letting my 4-year-old walk on the sidewalks of Brooklyn than anywhere in Phoenix. The driving is so much worse and so much faster here. Cars are also my biggest fear

I mean sure. But land is limited. If you really want to build more homes you're going to have to bulldoze entire neighborhoods of single-family homes in places like Phoenix. Which is fine with me, I prefer a denser place, but I'm

In some places rental prices are increased even more because properties that would be rented otherwise are now just AirBNBs. Just look at this map of registered short-term rentals in Scottsdale, AZ: https://eservices.scottsdaleaz

It is really annoying that MLB.TV has gone the route with games on other providers. I don't want to create another account or install some other app on my TV or phone for a few games a season. At least the radio broadcasts still work o

You either print and rescan and crop the edges, or you type it all out yourself. It'd be safest to never put it online at all other than paraphrased summaries. The next safest would be to just type it all out yourself in your own word
