@XM I would also add that mobile apps sometimes need specifically tested against as many makes/models of devices as is practical. I don't think that's the case here as many of those devices look exactly the same.

@XM Could be used for good or evil. I've had to test mobile payment apps that required some load testing. Only way to do it sometimes is with real devices issuing real requests. Provisioning a new card into a mobile wallet is a good example that's hard to emulate.
And...they could very well be bad-bots. Just chunking out Amazon reviews or propaganda.

@XM this has been a true sanctuary for many of us. On some days it was my only glimpse of hope that the world was not in a death spiral.

It probably is in a death spiral, but not with the end so frightfully near.

@XSGeek As long as the DD214 says Honorable, don't mess with a good thing. The current cause can just be the sprinkles on top for you.

@Lindy I'm still getting through the Prime episodes. Getting close to the end of those.

My biggest takeaway so far is to know that it is possible to get "spaced". And that it isn't a good thing.

@IanWolfe @0x56 😂

@Render And what do you suppose is the cost of learning about the need to have that label? One cat? Two cats?

@0x56 yikes. I assume this was one professional dissing another.
I have personally witnessed the animosity between framers, hvac, electricians, drywallers, and finishers. Crazy stuff.
If this was your own DYI work then Oops. 😁 Maybe mention to the therapist that two of your personalities are having a tiff.

@SpecialAgentCooper I spent a quality 4.5 minutes there just now. Yikes!

@corlin that's very cool.

Merry Christmas 🎅.

I made my annual potato casserole this morning. I miss being able to share it with my dad. I can't even share it with my brother year. And he made a gumbo, which is usually amazing. So we will eat each other's portion and raise a toast from our own homes.

Be well everyone.

@MrGoat Always better to got to straight to the source. Thanks!

Sorry if someone already published the link. Here's an NPR story that has a way to view the whole Relief document.

My most interesting takeaway so far as my accidental discovery that the word "Tibet" is in the package over 30 times. I have nothing bad to say about Tibet, but does that really belong here? Ug.
