Must be a regional thing because for me “our” always sounds like “hour” no matter what

I feel seen

Why do I feel like there should be a saddam hussein silhouette hiding in there somewhere?

Really difficult one today. I can almost always make genius with no real trouble but today I stalled two points shy. Still managed QB but only with lots of help from bee buddy and steveg.

For some reason I found the weird pangram immediately. Most of the puzzle was a cruise but I needed bee buddy with nine words left and steveg’s hints for the last three. It definitely took me longer than usual.

Be sure she has her very own flag and speaks a variation of common that others can barely understand.

The Samsung tries to “identify” what’s on an hdmi input before it will connect. It seems to call out to the internet to do that because it takes forever to fail and show you the display anyway when it’s not connected to the internet. Even when it is connected, it takes a stupidly long time to switch to a new input. I super hate it and will never buy another samsung tv.

I guess the lg needs to boot tizen before it works, because I see the logo briefly but then it goes directly to the last used input with no other bullshit, so it’s fine with me.

I love how literally nobody is answering your actual question.

I agree that this is problematic and we need TV reviews to include at least some of the information you cite.

If it helps, I have an LG smart TV. It complains if you don’t let it access the internet at setup, but if you connect it once and let it do its initial patching, you can decline all agreements and not get nagged until it tries to update again. To keep it from further updates, you can disconnect it from wifi and it doesn’t seem to try to reconnect. I can’t speak to public wifi because there aren’t any open access points near my TV.

In contrast, I have a samsung TV that loses its mind if it can’t connect to the internet and becomes basically useless for all the nagging.

Really struggled with today’s puzzle, after a long-ish streak of easy ones.

I have optimized charging enabled and I never get an audible notification when charging completes, focus or not. Have you maybe set something up in shortcuts that has the time-sensitive flag enabled?

Regardless, I haven’t had any alerts break through during focus except the ones I explicitly allow.

I ran into that after the iOS 17 update. A reboot fixed the problem.

When 900 years old you are, look as good you will not. Hmph!

“Jovian hurricane force” would be more accurate.

Why must you fail me so often? FUUUUCK!!!

If you’re talking about the florida gov not taking Biden and Harriss’s calls, that won’t hold up aid at all. He has spoken with the head of FEMA, which is what actually starts the ball rolling.

If you’re referring to the GOP voting against FEMA and disaster relief funding bills… fuckifiknow

No, originally the first three digits designated where you lived when you requested your SSN. The middle two were also not sequential. The final four digits were the only purely sequential ones.

I won’t buy it with denuvo, period. As far as game mechanics goes, I’m fine(ish) with what I’ve seen so far but I wouldn’t pre-order.
