Favorite calorie counting app?
I’m looking to start tracking food again. Between wanting to get healthier and it looking like I have gout it’d be good to start tracking this stuff again. Used to use MyFitnessPal 10 years ago but things change so much.
What’s everyone’s go to? I could just make a local spreadsheet but if there’s something that’s easier that’s great.
HP realizes that mandatory 15-minute support call wait times isn’t good support
EDIT: This happened back in 2025. Will leave as I’m sure I’m not the only one that didn’t know, but I saw it on hacker news and didn’t realize it was a year old. My bad.
In an odd approach to trying to improve customer tech support, HP allegedly implemented mandatory, 15-minute wait times for people calling the vendor for help with their computers and printers in certain geographies.
Callers from the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Ireland, and Italy were met with the forced holding periods, The Register reported on Thursday. The publication cited internal communications it saw from February 18 that reportedly said the wait times aimed to “influence customers to increase their adoption of digital self-solve, as a faster way to address their support question. This involves inserting a message of high call volumes, to expect a delay in connecting to an agent and offering digital self-solve solutions as an alternative.”

Another complaint — for which there was no contact information provided — alleged that “calendar girls” parties at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago involved genital measurements for children.
“Jeffrey Epstein would bring the children in and trump would auction them off. He measured the children’s vulva and vaginas by entering a finger and rated the children on tightness,” the complaint reads.

Decided to roll with Opensuse Tumbleweed a while back which preconfigures snapper for you. Never used it or touched it before.
Did something stupid and bricked my install and could not figure out what was wrong. Saw I could boot to a snapshot, so I gave it a go. It worked and I restored it.
I will never go back. I’m sure this has been around for ages but this was a game changer for me. I’m so used to the old model of manual backups.
