Yes, I love my aeropress!! With enough dialing in I can usually make a better cup of coffee with a pourover setup that better expresses the differences of specific beans. But the aeropress makes a darn good cup of coffee every time without going through all that hassle. I use mine almost daily.
I do sometimes “provide feedback” on terrible featured snippets, but goddamn does it feel like shouting into a void.
My entire family “Yello”s!
I answer my phone with it all the time and nobody’s ever commented.
Cool, thanks for the rec! I love when series do a good job of bringing multiple story threads together in a satisfying way.
Sci-fi is a genre of K-drama I’ve never engaged with, but your description of “Sisyphus” has me intrigued! I’ll have to check it out next time I’m on Netflix.
Writing this down for later, thanks!
How is the OSX and iOS support for Keepass nowadays? Are there desktop and browser clients for OSX, and what’s the autofill situation like?
Keepass was the first password manager I used and I really liked it, but I had to switch when I started using Apple devices for work a few years back, and the lack of platform support there was a nonstarter.
Thanks for the PSA! I’d seen the warning that not including “Undetermined” could prevent you from seeing content, but I didn’t realize you could multi-select!
If you want to watch more ToS, you can similarly cherry-pick your watch list there, as there are some stand-out episodes. I’d definitely recommend at least watching The Menagerie for context before SNW (or Captain Pike’s appearance in Discovery).
DS9 is some of the very best of Trek, but you’re going to want to actually watch it through; it’s got much larger story arcs and character development than ToS, TNG, and Voyager. It takes a couple of seasons to really pick up, but is well worth it. If you’re not ready to sit through that many subsequent episodes yet, you can wait until you have a better feel for the series. But don’t sleep on this one, it’s fantastic.
Those are my highlights for earlier Trek, but you can’t really go wrong as long as you’re enjoying what you’re watching!
TNG is, imo, the gold standard and an excellent starting point if you’re not looking to jump straight into Strange New Worlds. Its episodes are generally pretty self-contained, so you won’t be punished terribly for jumping around if you’re just looking to get a taste, and will still be able to enjoy the great episodes it has to offer, but you will get more context the more episodes you’re willing to watch.
Plenty of folks have compiled lists of which episodes are skippable vs worth watching, and there’s pretty universal agreement on which are iconic must-watch episodes, so there’s nothing wrong with following one of those for a first watch. Here’s an example. I’d recommend using the list at the bottom of that page (or another rated list) as a guide, and experiment a bit to figure out a good baseline for how low of a rating is acceptable and how many episodes you can tolerate in your first watch through.
Note that season 1 is widely regarded as the weakest, where the show is trying to emulate ToS and hasn’t yet come into its own, and you can skip episodes more liberally here, or even come back to it later.
Mario Party Superstars’ deal is that it features boards and minigames from the 3 N64 Mario Party titles. Something to note: because these are all older minigames, they exclusively use button controls rather than joycon motion control. But as somebody who grew up playing these, this was a must-buy.
With Jamboree, it looks like a typical MP release (a la Super Mario Party), but a cool thing here is that they also included two boards from older titles. This brings the total number of boards in jamboree to 7, compared to the 4 in SMP and 5 in MPS. No word though on which minigames might be seeing a return from the older titles. They did confirm that many minigames would use motion controls; if you haven’t played a recent MP, I find that these generally work well, are intuitive for new players, and are good fun.
I’ll probably pick this up because I do play Mario Party with friends and family from time to time. For anyone who doesn’t yet have a MP on the Switch, this does seem like the definitive title to get since it’s both the newest and the biggest, though I would still recommend Mario Party Superstars for anyone with nostalgia for the N64 games.
