Good. Maybe now they'll act like REAL Americans and get an American Shepherd! #WWG1WGA -
Wasn't there some bullshit personality conflict between Feige and whoever the guy at Disney was who was in charge of making the deal with Netflix that drove the shows not really connecting into the MCU beyond a few vague references to stuff like the city getting beaten to shit in Avengers 1? Like Feige wouldn't let the guy do better tie-ins, or the other guy didn't want to because he hated Feige, or something like that?

Rode this bad boy back and forth to work today. Solid tires (rockier ride than air tires but every video I've seen of replacing the tires on an e-scooter makes it look like a nightmare and solid tire scooters are zero maintenance), rated up to 20 mph but my fat butt was only getting like 18, realistic range is like 12 mi based on today but that's enough for my use and it's lighter than the Segway Ninebot ones (they have better range but are also a bit slower, I'd trade some range for faster and lighter). But as I discovered today not light enough to want to carry it all the way into my office every day, carrying it from my apartment door to front door was fine (still important) though so still better than having to drag a Segway one outside, so probably gonna start bringing the U-lock for my bike for that, I don't intend to leave it outside for stuff like going into the gym but the work garage has bike parking so that seems like it should be fine. You can wheel it around by the handlebar while it's folded up but the post is juuuuust to short for it to not be kind of awkward to move it around the way. It does come with a carrying satchel but I feel putting it into the satchel every single day to take it inside the office would get tiresome quickly, it seems like it's more for if you want to drive somewhere with the scooter in the trunk and then scoot around at your destination. Main unexpected bit based on all the shared ones I've used is that the rear foot brake is not as responsive as the other ones I've used. It definitely slows you down when you need to in order to navigate a tricky spot but it doesn't seem like it'll actually get you (at least most of the way) to a stop like the other ones I've used.

I'm fine down to like 10-20 degrees. Honestly as long as it's not to the point where the tip of your nose feels like it's getting freezer burn after 5 minutes outside like with the 2014 polar vortex event it's fine so even below 10 can be okay depending on the wind. You can always bundle up more and the cold is great walking weather. But no getting naked enough to escape the humidity.

The Netflix algorithm is basically "things other people who watched and liked the things you watched and liked" and I'd say it does a decent job. Some of what it turns up are turds but I think that's more about a lot the Netflix-created content being turds than the algorithm itself. I would appreciate more ability to go in and make hard overrides on stuff, though. Like it recommended The 4400 to me recently, which I actually really enjoyed so much I binged it. I don't use TV as background that much per se and I don't want the full oldschool experience of tuning in halfway through an episode, but I'd definitely appreciate more options for "just make an educated guess about what I'd like and start it from the beginning if it's a TV series". Maybe provide the option to input how much time I think I want to be watching for in the current sitting, or even just TV vs movie which would be a decent proxy for that. A genre control might be okay too. But just very broad "what are you in the mood for" kinds of options that don't make you think nearly as hard as picking something specific, while still making those toggles optional.

I'm trying to set up a covered call using HPIL or HCMC and Schwab since I figured I'd get my feet wet with something not worth much and the Schwab site is saying "Error Message There are no options for the given underlying symbol." Is this a Schwab restriction on what they'll set up options for, or are there just stocks where you simply can't do options trading with them?

Elon's own debut promo vid (the one playing at the start of this video) made the idea look dumb as shit. It shows slow elevators getting in and out of the tunnels and cars having to line up for the elevators. It was blatantly obvious right from their own debut video that it couldn't solve traffic and was just shifting it to being focused around the tunnel access points.

Where does it say OnlyFans wants to pull a Verizon/Tumblr and purge the porn as part of going public?
