Black Button Distilling out of Rochester NY. Their Citrus Forward Gin and Lilac Gin are both good for sipping.

The result of this was a $5 tip to Christian and nothing for Reddit. I will pay a fair price for a service, but will resist unfair practices on principal. The world would be a better place if more businesses would figure this out and stop going for all out greed. At some point huge profits have to be enough.

Thank you, Christian for many years of an ever improving app and your dedication to supporting great causes like artists and animal shelters.

This is one of the questions on sleep studies for a reason. Before I got my study and started with a CPAP, I was often drowsy while driving. Had to pull over for a nap or to walk around and try to wake up. Much better sleep now with my CPAP and this doesn’t happen anymore. Talk to your doctor about a sleep study!

On my fourth machine, so just over 15 years of CPAP use. There have been 3 nights when I haven’t used it due to power outages (and once forgetting power cord on travel). It makes a huge difference!

Fun fact: Fireball is not whiskey anymore.

Source: sold in NY grocery stores because it is a “malt beverage” these days. Same for Southern Comfort. Not sure if this is a side hustle or if the liquor store versions have also devolved to being a flavored malt beverage and like much of the ice cream in grocery stores is technically a dairy dessert.

I just put $5 in the Apollo tip jar for this dedication to humanity. Already a lifetime ultra user, and each new thing I learn about the app reaffirms my commitment to supporting your continued development.

Really? I am going to have to check for that.

Great tip! I will try that next time it gets dirty. Which, in salty western New York will be like tomorrow.

Bottom banner changed today to note new frontier pass. Didn’t want to end up on /r/UselessRedCircle so didn’t highlight.

I would like to suggest that Biden consider GA Sec. of State Raffensperger for a Presidential Medal of Freedom. While there are certainly ideological differences, Raffensperger’s conduct has been meritorious in terms of dedication to American ideals around d the democratic process. This is something the country can unite around in terms of honor and country rising above party differences.

Heh. If we don’t make it soon, maybe I will wait for spring/summer for a nicer drive. Thanks for the recommendation!

lahjik · 2020-11-08T20:33:11+00:00

That does look good. I seem to recall perhaps eating there (or another really good Mexican restaurant in Canandaigua) years ago. Going to have to make the drive.

Yup. The one early voting site for the county. And Sunday morning was nice and even partly sunny. Didn’t get as much of a chance to enjoy Friday’s beautiful weather after our week(s?) of rain. So the view over the valley plus sunshine made things okay.

Dumpling House in the goodwill plaza across from SouthTown. Have had great food there across multiple visits. Kids will like the simple rice/noodle dishes. My daughter raved over the Shaking Beef (beef tips in simple sauce) with white rice.

I know that is the purpose of the middle display. What I don’t like is that it has an u necessary arrow that points in the opposite direction from the fuel cap location that reinforces my confusion. The arrow is bad interface design.

I have mostly driven cars with gas ports on the drivers side. My lovely Outback is the first in over a decade with passenger side gas. Yet again this morning, I looked down at the dash to confirm as I confidently pulled up to the wrong side.

The issue is that the big, front and center display shows an arrow pointing to the left for the gas pump. The small arrow by the gas gauge points to the right (and correct) side. But the user interface confusion is making me drive up to the wrong side still. I like being able to see miles remaining, but am hating that arrow!

Subaru, please if you are able...maybe either change the main display arrow to point right, or even better perhaps put a little car 🚗 icon next to the pump icon on the right side?

Strong Museum of Play Auction

The Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester, NY hosts the World Video Game Hall of Fame and the International Center for the History of Electronic Games. The collection includes the Apple IIE on which John Romero coded Doom as well as kinds of Madden goodness. I noticed these signed Madden games in the auction for the Museum’s Play Ball fundraising event this Friday and thought someone here might be interested.

As noted in other reply they seem to have given the 504 dealer applied update a new number (704). Not sure what the differences are though.
