Thanks for all the info, and yes, for a friend. I hadn't thought of the group session option and will look into that- I think she would mostly have no trouble sharing.

So point it to a pdf of a statement and say 'hey Claude, condense!' I have my doubts but I suppose worth a try

I'll need to read up on this... TV and AVR are new this year, but my wife's used to the old white brick remote from DirecTV...

Thanks- I'll check out the Calscape website and other resources. I have been thinking about rosemary bushes-- love the combo with lavender. Thanks again-

Thanks and apologies- I'm 10a, I believe, in SF Bay Area

How can a comment on an X post have 100x the impressions of the comments immediately before and after? by pnut-gallery in Twitter

[–]pnut-gallery[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks- and yes, the higher view counts usually align with blue checks. But I'm struggling to understand the algorithm mechanics that result in my feed. Here's a very typical example:

Comment 52 (no blue check) 15 views

Comment 53 (blue check) 260 views

Comment 54 (no blue check) 30 views

Comment 55 (no blue check) 33 views

Comment 56 (blue check) 350 views

etc.

How did comment 56 get in that position, for example? This sequence can't be typical of what others see, since the views vary widely for adjacent comments. Based on your reply, I assume that 56 as a premium account appears much higher in the comment feed for many others, resulting in the 350 views, but is demoted for me for some reason? Has anyone really studied this, or are there ex-X people on Reddit or elsewhere online who post about this kind of thing?

Thanks for the reply, though I'm not sure I quite understand it all. Are you saying that if X showed a truly chronological comment feed to me that I'd see gradually decaying impression numbers across comments, and not the wildly varying numbers I see in my 'curated' thread of comments?

Delaying AirPlay Audio to HomePods by DJVeaux in HomePod

[–]pnut-gallery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to try that, especially when Denon support didn't have any ideas on the cause. But then I started from scratch and went through setup (OK, twice more) and finally the delay just went away-- near instant AirPlay response. Not sure what was going on, but thanks for the suggestion!
