I just downloaded it and tried it. Unfortunately, since I live in the vast suburban sprawl of a major US city, its ETA is way off because I doesn't take traffic info account. Compared to Google Maps, its ETA was off by a significant margin (12 minutes OM vs 20 minutes Google Maps and 38 vs 54).

Glad to see this is an active project though.

Search "$podcast_title RSS" to find a feed of it. The MP4 urls will be part of the feed.

I like how the author figured any cord cutting image will do. Ethernet is not the cord the term refers to.

What's wrong with the name? I like it. Valid points on everything else though.

If it is, it's news to me. I co-owned an education data consultancy (before realizing there was no money in education) that used a .org; we were for-profit.

2013-2014 was when the timeline shifted from being a chronological timeline to a feed. The algo took over and it went to shit.

$1000? I have a hard cap at $600 on principle. Just get a phone one generation old and it's easy.

It's the Costco of health insurance, and given the competition, that's a good thing. Literal one-stop-shop for healthcare is pretty fucking nice in the world of networks, specialists, referrals, and "coverage".

But yeah, they fucked up here.

Hah, well time to tell our CEO I'm shutting down our prod servers.

That's a fair criticism. I guess I was just thinking it's better than ads, but not if you don't enjoy sports.

One of the gas stations by my house does something similar but actually cool. They show about 2 minutes of sports highlights from the night before (think SportsCenter Top 10 but also with scores) and then some non-political news headlines.

I actually stand there watching the whole time. They get my business.
