The buttons on Zenith’s original “clicker” remote were a mechanical marvel
If you’ve ever heard someone refer to a TV remote as a “clicker,”

Sir Elton John to perform final farewell show in Sweden
fun story...
ive seen Elton John twice. the second time, more than twenty years ago, i was able to present a rose to him on one knee during the encore.
my friends and i were in the front row and had set up a folding chair up against the stage. it was quite a leap to get up there and i immediately ran for the side of his piano. security rushed in on me rapidly but i was already on one knee reaching out with my head down, so Elton shooed them away.
i love Elton John.

Macaroni (aka (American) Goulash) - My comfort food.
thanks for including the recipe.
my dad has made a version of this since before i was born (45 years). he prefers the shell macaroni, but any will do. and rather than ketchup, his secret ingredient is a coupla cans of mushroom soup.
calls it "cowboy surprise" (also goulash), and i agree that it hits the comfort button.

What would you considered "Ethical Piracy"
i have downloaded tens of thousands of dollars of audio recording software. i always told myself that, if i were to ever make money from my efforts and usage thereof, i would be happy to pay the author.
i never made any money. but i hope the right people got paid by those that did.

i was under the impression that "new battery technology" had us done with that sort of thing? tis a bummer because i don't really see how i can wake up in the middle of the night to unplug the thing.
but i really appreciate the advice. i am definitely interested in extending my battery life. 👍

New research has found that youth who are prescribed stimulants to treat their ADHD are not more likely to become addicted to drugs later in life
are you sure you got that title right?
from the article:
Conclusions and Relevance This study found no evidence that stimulant treatment was associated with increased or decreased risk for later frequent use of alcohol, marijuana, cigarette smoking, or other substances used for adolescents and young adults with childhood ADHD.
i want people to get what they need. but i see no reason to propagandize.

Etsy sellers are striking and asking for a boycott.
does ETSY even need to be more than a handful of devs in a garage?
i mean, i don't use it... never even visited the site. but it seems like the only purpose of expanding into a C-suite is to make rich people more rich. apparently the sellers aren't enjoying things.
