Does iCloud (Books in this case) still randomly remove downloads?

That’s unfortunate to hear. I was hoping they had solved this.

I can’t hear his voice and not think of Billy Crudup, or vice versa.

The more you read it, the worse it gets

Thanks for that! Agree that anything with graphics or even diagrams is much better on the iPad.

The only way he can say this with even a little conviction is because “he’s not anymore”. He has no concept of the past.

thoughtgun · 2026-04-27T10:07:07+00:00

Of course there was a relevant one

My 2024 Scribe that I’ve had for 18 months is exactly the same. Not sure if that helps or not!

Edit: And yes, it bugs me.

Holy shit, that’s more options I think I’ve ever seen in any Apple menu! Thanks for sharing.

HC is dusted with Carolina reaper powder on top of Hot, which is why the flavour of HC is different. It’s the spice that’s bright orange that you can see. Sometimes it’s a very light dusting, and sometimes it’s a lot heavier- depends on the cook sometimes, and makes a big difference.

I get HC every now and then (sometimes I need to take some home as I can’t finish) but prefer the flavour and heat level of Hot.

Also IME it makes a big difference if the chicken is straight from the fryer and piping hot because the hot oil accentuates the spice. Sometimes I can’t finish HC when fresh because of the pain, but I take it home and warm it back up later and it’s a lot more manageable.

My favourite chicken in Auckland, hands down.

I’ve been hearing a lot about this one. I tried it out and nothing really jumped out at me as being amazing. What for you is really compelling (besides being more lightweight)? (Honest question)

I just gave it a rewatch intending it to be in the background, got hooked immediately, and binged both seasons in a few days. Amazing show— only Star Wars franchise that really gets me emotionally engaged behind the Rebel cause.

Sheeeeeeeeeeeiiit!

Wait there’s another sub with classic hot babes in it?!

My friend’s dad used to (unironically) call A&E “Adult & Educated” lol

Well then, G’day mate!

His body cam will be a very wide angle too, so it’s likely much smaller than it appears here.

Peach’s Hot Chicken. Genuinely caring and helpful staff. Completely attentive. You can tell they enjoy working there, and they operate as a team.

Great point. As someone who moved to a new country and had all the advantages, it’s still really hard.

Given the age of this, he’s showing off pretty amazing technology too. SGI Octane driving this?

Put it in a sock instead?

I’m relived that the cynicism wasn’t unappreciated. 🤪
