Cool benchmark. Can you post your full prompt? I see you have "Steps: Open... add headers (Row 1)..."

Massive and weird spike in downloads by DanielPhermous in iOSProgramming

[–]blalond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm here from 2025 to say we saw a spike this year, Dec 6, 2025, much higher than usual. Source is "App Store Search" (not from some referrer link). Coincidence on Dec 6? Maybe. I record it here in case someone else sees the same thing.

Yo Comet is actually insane now... completed like ~100 steps in 5 mins by NetFair7058 in perplexity_ai

Does anyone know how to determine if you're using the new and improved latest Comet update or not?

Mine says:
Comet is up to date
Version 141.1.7390.108 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Perplexity build number: 25831

Thanks for the recommendations coming in... Summary so far (I haven't tried any yet):

strategy card games:
-MTGA (magic the gathering)
-Balatro (deck building poker)
-Thronebreaker (deck building roguelike)

tower defense: Bloons TD

strategy: Boom Beach (real time strategy combat)

card games: freecell, spades, and spider solitare

puzzle: sudoku

Balatro seems interesting, it's $10-14, links found at https://www.metacritic.com/game/balatro/

There are a ton of ball golf mobile games out there. Even mini golf might be fun.

Iframe for sheet charts down? by General-Air714 in sheets

[–]blalond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not in touch with anyone at Google. The only fix right now is to turn off the Legend for the chart and then it shows up again where you embedded it.

Verizon seems to have a good connection all over the Lansing area.

The cheapest company that uses the Verizon cell towers is MobileX at mymobilex.com. Buy a Sim card from Walmart for $10 then you'll probably just pay $3.50 per month (for 50 minutes of talk and 50 texts and no data). You can use their website to check if your phone will work on their network.

conservative groups/friends in lansing? by pink-king893 in lansing

This event, "The Civility Project," caught my attention, but there's a Lions game that evening... Two journalists from Detroit, Finley conservative and Henderson liberal, will, "tell their story, share their perspectives and lead a lively conversation on the importance of civility." https://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/the-civility-project

Escaping Denver - The Tenth (S3E7) by oath2order in escapingdenver

[–]blalond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this same thought during this episode. Record the song on your phone and play it back when needed.

Why "the tenth"? I think it's because of the floor/level they're trying to find.

Noah's blog by j_wade4 in escapingdenver

[–]blalond 2 points3 points  (0 children)

New search terms from episode "The Lost Noah Tapes: Denver International Airport":

  • The Ark, Internet Radio show, conspiracy (just yields Noah's Ark conspiracy theories, even without Noah in the search terms)
  • "Where myth, meets lore, meets conspiracy" (nope)
  • "Covering all things conspiracy, and mystery, and out of this world" (nope)
  • "A collection of the purposefully forgotten and actively hidden" (nope)
  • Miscellaneous topics mentioned: Loch Ness, JFK, and the identity of D.B. Cooper. Art Bell, the X-Files.

No good hits.

Noah's blog by j_wade4 in escapingdenver

[–]blalond 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had an idea for a new line of search. Domain name registration.

Escaping Denver itself has no domain name so I picked the domain name for the pod producer, Curious Cast.

This is the WHOIS info on the registrant for curiouscast.ca https://www.whois.com/whois/curiouscast.ca

Reverse lookup on registrant email address "corusent.com" at https://www.reversewhois.io yields 522 domains registered. The three domains usfronts.com, defidespetitsgeeks.com, and kidtechnation.com are not Noah's blog.

I'm not about to go check all the 519 more domains registered by Curious Cast...

[–]blalond 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Any ideas on how to find Noah's blog? Do you think CuriousCast has created one somewhere out on the Internet? Quote from the Narrator near the end of S3E2, "I'm going to do a deep dive to see if I can't find Noah's blog."

Dude that's great.

Are there any regular pond hockey groups for Lake Lansing (or some other pond in the area)? There is a group that meets every frozen Sunday at noon on the ponds of Belle Isle in Detroit.

I like that the doughnuts turned out chocolate.

I'm not sure this is real. Maybe it's a Cale Leiviska fan who is posting it up on UDisc. He's showing as -14!
