A scoop of vanilla ice cream, topped with a little “chili crunch” oil - salty and sweet, spicy and creamy… it’s great.

I don’t go to McDonalds much any more, but I’d get fries and a vanilla shake to do that with, as a treat!

Unironically, I totally agree. Commentator is dumb and redundant, commenter is the superior alternative.

Just because you do it for a living, doesn’t mean that it’s a different title; a carpenter doesn’t become a carpentator because it’s a paying job. A pilot doesn’t become a pilotator when they get paid for it.

That’s a really interesting idea; my kid wants to be a pilot and just discovered flight tracker… I’m going to check out Airspy’s “how to” stuff and see about this as a gift idea too!

My only hope is that the first time I stepped over the line when using my powers, I’d feel so bad about it afterwards that it would prevent me from doing it again… mostly.

Get yourself a speed loom for $20 and some thread or embroidery floss, and you can darn socks! This was my pandemic “learn a new skill”, and now the whole family brings me socks with holes, to fix.

And the “best” part is that cheap socks wear out around the patch, so then you get to / have to darn them again!

I’ve run it on an iPhone 5 or 6, I don’t recall… had it watching my living room for a month while I was away, and aside from a few false positives when light patterns changed due to the wind blowing tree branches around, it was excellent.
