Thank you for replying, I appreciate it! I’ll reach out when I get in trouble ;)

I probably missed it in the documentation, but how do I automate the browser with Bombadil? How do I get it to login to my app so I can test authenticated pages? Edit: as others have said, I am having trouble figuring out how to make this

Yes, I agree, but the old one is unusable on mobile, and visiting old.reddit.com forces me to keep using it until I logout and login again, which is also awful

Off-topic: After visiting a Reddit link via Hacker News on my phone, my Reddit layout is unusable. How do I get out of old Reddit and back to something usable? Related: why does HN always link to old.reddit?

And power lines. I seem to recall reading that some of the health problems may have come from Agent Orange, which was used to clear the power corridor in the 50s

That makes sense, given the description of how it works, but the article distinctly mentions getting this effect from gaming headphones so... Anyway, I went and tried again with just my laptop (based on the person above effusing about it).

I agree. The article mentions bits going around their head, or in the front-right. I hear things on the left, and things on the right. And stuff that appears on the opposite side of where the article mentions them. I’m listening on Spotify,

oh, I love vim! I still hit esc anywhere between 5 and 7 times before typing :wq to save my work.

The point is - how does Instagram know you should be re-invited if you are deleted? If you are really deleted, they shouldn't know you were ever a member.

My experience with BlueTooth devices has been sub-optimal. They never seem to connect "cleanly" and always involve some degree of turning the device off and on again, turning BT on the computer off and on again, trying both in a

That's true, but I don't think the solution is to treat all humans like they're assholes.

I don't know, I feel like many people started using Chrome because technical-minded folk recommended it to them (certainly, I told many family members to switch to it). So, maybe the same thing will happen with Firefox (I have just sw

To the people who make stuff like this: how much time do you put into a page like this? I feel like (in my world) this would require an endless set of meetings, then design + revisions, then programming, and eventually someone would say &q

I'll give you 5 times out of 10. The other 5 is the designer's solution to trying to fit 10 different stakeholder's crap "above the fold."

There is a link in the email to "view this email as a web page" which redirects to a page on 8x8.com (the parent company of Zerigo), so I assume it's legit.

That's a good point - you can use these features browser-side if you can control the browser being used (like in a large company).
