Apparently, if you go to "About Firefox" and click the Firefox logo multiple times, it'll enable a secret settings menu. Find that and you can disable the "Menu Redesign".

Crooked Media is a pretty big progressive/democratic outlet. But yeah, compared to the right wing media ecosystem...

I doubt one would be required to answer those questions but I suppose even being asked would be scary for some people. I'd think there are good ways to structure the collection process (script or UI) to minimize that risk, though.

I was just thinking that the arc of the moral universe appears to be a wibbly wobbly arcily wimey sort of thing.

I'm so much faster in vanilla Python+Bash than in vscode because I can keep my hands on the keyboard and everything is a reflex at this point. vscode is driving me nuts wrt tab management and navigation, but copilot chat really helps when you're not familiar with a project's language, so...

I'm two episodes in and it's bad so far. There's obviously a twist coming so I'm also trying to figure out if it gets better.

Very surprised to hear it's a two-parter though. Boo. This plus the "distracting overacting" vibes from the trailer (maybe it's just me) make me consider skipping part 1 until part 2 is out. May just come down to a careful read of the reviews.

There's a scene in the trailer where Ariana Grande picks up a pink sphere from a crate in the most "I'm about to launch into song" gesture ever, so I'm going to side with Universal on that point.

Downloaded the Android Studio Ladybug update and OH GOOD GOD what happened to my UI?! FFS, it's always something with Android.

I was really annoyed at a report they did about Walz starting to go negative as well. Felt like someone was really trying to get in a "both sides" piece, and there are conservative employees within NPR. But in my experience 49/50 stories are well done. I notice more and bigger screwups at the NYT.

NPR (and public radio stations) do an overall decent job if you're okay getting news and discussion in an audio format. ProPublica probably needs the money more though.

First thing that came to mind was "The Andromeda Strain". Only read the book, but riffing on it might make for a good Zombie Apocalypse prequel.

We can do both? I would guess that most people working on self-driving cars aren't the same people who would best navigate the politics of huge infrastructure projects.
