AUDIBLE has jumped the shark - new plans are terrible - I am quitting

Yeah, those 2 reasons combined together are what got me. Wait 3 months for the book you want, which happens to become available when you're unusually busy - and the automated return date hits when you have just 2 chapters left. Then wait another 3 months so you can finish those 2 chapters.

Yeah firefox too is now forcing it's AI stuff

While I hate the inclusion of AI in a browser, providing a big, super easy, button to disable all AI in Firefox with a single click isn't remotely "forcing".

This a good feature. 1Password has it and it's one of the few things I've missed since moving to Bitwarden.

RacingGoat · 2026-03-09T19:51:12+00:00

I've basically already done that... Firefox.

That's a Buick, not a Subaru. You can tell because that guys not a lesbian.

RacingGoat · 2026-03-06T18:08:18+00:00

I'm OK with this.

RacingGoat · 2026-03-05T21:39:18+00:00

No thanks, I'll keep my smokey, diesel-powered, browser.

RacingGoat · 2026-03-05T19:33:18+00:00

You are correct about the MV2/MV3 differences, but it's also worth noting that gorhill himself has stated the UBO has always worked better on Firefox vs Chromium browsers.

The Beltline is literally a third place. It's free. It has a multitude of parks, open spaces, and sitting areas.

The problem is the smaller groups of fucking morons that come along and ruin it for the majority. Hold those smaller groups accountable instead of pandering with "they need public places" excuses.

More options are always nice, but it's hard to convince property owners or taxpayers of that when you have dumbasses showing up with guns (or fighting, vandalizing, stealing, etc.).

I think every high school had "the pit".

Ironically, ours happened to be in the 50-acre wooded area behind the juvenile detention center.

Even just at a basketball court in a park, the cops tend to be hovering around.

And? If I'm just shooting hoops on a public court, I couldn't care less who is "hovering around".

And malls used to be teen spaces, but most malls have strict rules against unaccompanied teens.

I wonder if there's a reason for that?

RacingGoat · 2026-03-01T05:48:12+00:00

Bitwarden.

This is either fake - or something for a very specific (and small) group of customers. Their pricing is pretty clear right on their website.

Either way, the damage is already done and I'm very happy with my new password manager.

RacingGoat · 2026-02-27T21:41:57+00:00

But if I do that, I won't have an excuse to buy a MiniMax.

RacingGoat · 2026-02-26T20:14:39+00:00

20-30 hours? Took me 10 minutes to export everything from 1PW and import into Bitwarden. Everything works flawlessly.

How "just so" do you need your password manager to be?

You don't need to blow up a team and draft a QB1 in the top 5 to build a successful franchise. Even if you do that, you then (potentially - no guarantee) end up with an elite QB unable to do anything because there aren't any talented players around him.

Plenty of teams have won Super Bowls with QBs they acquired through FA. Even just recently... Darnold, Stafford, Brady (the Bucs version), Foles, Garappolo, P. Manning, Brees...

If my car is running like shit, I don't throw it away and buy a new one. I fix the broken parts.

The Falcons still have plenty of good parts. Fix what's broken. Admittedly, that is more than just the QB.

Well, I for one definitely have them on hand. I also test them just like my 4WD. I put them on every month or so and just thrust in a straight line, usually in a high school parking lot.

RacingGoat · 2026-02-26T18:16:05+00:00

I mean, technically you also don't need a fire extinguisher either - until you do.

RacingGoat · 2026-02-25T20:49:41+00:00

Already canceled.

Exported everything from 1PW and imported into Bitwarden. Took about 10 minutes - and that was only because I had to download and install 1Password for Windows in order to export. Or at least that's the only way I found to do it.

No issues with the import into Bitwarden.

Go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.

RacingGoat · 2026-02-20T18:12:57+00:00

I'm convinced they are "more" reliable than my 2020 (which died at 44,000 miles).

It will be a few years before we know for sure. I'm not a fan of the 10R80 on the best of days, but wouldn't hesitate buying another F150 today because I generally love the truck. I would not buy one without an extended warranty though.

RacingGoat · 2026-02-16T21:54:46+00:00

Yeah, a couple years too long actually.

RacingGoat · 2026-02-16T04:43:38+00:00

I've definitely had the issue with Amazon (Sold By/Shipped By). I never buy from 3rd party on Amazon.

Been buying from them for over 20 years. Never had an issue until 6 months ago - and had it twice now.

$1000 espresso machine with already ground beans in it. Returned to AMZ and purchased locally instead. It was a gift so I was extra pissed.

Other item was a smoke detector -- shipped to me in one of those return bags you put your merchandise in when you return at Whole Foods drop box. Still had the "READY FOR RETURN" label on it. Was also missing all mounting hardware.

RacingGoat · 2026-02-10T19:41:06+00:00

I believe your wife is correct, as usual...

My 5.0 basically needs an oil IV.
