I know the primary objective of the YouTube apps is squashing ads, but I already have that. Do any of the sideload apps significantly improve the user experience beyond that? Thanks
What a disaster of a decision to axe the bakery. These bagels have been our family’s standard breakfast for over a decade and we buy 14 every week. This is a devastating blow to our morale. Here’s the response I received from Winco Customer Service:
> “Hi, our stores have transitioned to new bagels to help keep our costs as affordable as possible. Our team is very receptive to feedback, we'll make sure your voice is heard regarding this change (we've been hearing from lots of others friends too). Thank you.”
Interpretation: “Quality” has been deprioritized for profit. It’s a race to the bottom.
Have these suits never heard of the concept of “loss-leader,” products? Items you sell at a slight loss because it brings people in the door to purchase more profitable items? It’s the entire Costco model (hot dogs, fuel, rotisserie chicken, etc.)
What they don’t understand is that we will NOT be purchasing the small, shitty ass, preservative riddled, and trucked-in replacements. We will go somewhere else to buy fresh bagels, and that means we will very likely transfer a portion of the rest of our weekly grocery shopping away from Winco as a result. I’ve heard good things about both Safeway and Costco fresh bagels. I don’t really want that to be part of my weekly routine, but now it will be.
My once glowing fondness for Winco is waning and souring rapidly. Sad days. If you agree please let them know:

I’m utterly in shambles that Winco stopped making fresh bagels in-store. They were actually really good, a great value, and became our household’s go-to daily breakfast for years. I refuse to purchase the small, dense, and shitty-ass shipped-in bagels they replaced the fresh bakery ones with.
So now I’m in the market for a replacement. I buy 14 bagels every week. I doubt I can find anything close to $1/each, but hoping I don’t have to pay boutique $3+ prices. Any suggestions?
EDIT: if you’re disappointed like me, please let Winco know:

New to trying to get sync working with multiple devices. I tried mixing the following devices:
The Echo Show and the AppleTV work great together. Perfect sync and starts quickly. Unfortunately, if I add the Sonos+ speakers, they take about 10 full seconds to begin and are then 10 seconds behind the other speakers and never sync up.
Even if I start the Sonos+ speakers all on their own, they take 10 seconds to begin playback.
I can’t imagine this is the expected behavior. My network is all UniFi and the Sonos system works perfectly outside of Music Assistant. Any ideas what’s causing this huge delay and sync fail?
I’d love to stay all electric and avoid propane, but not at the expense of inferior temperatures. I tried one of those 120v induction round bottom wok burners but could only achieve ~575f. Can the professional ones deliver much higher temps, or should I just cave in and go gas?
Found my next whip guys! The efficiency is off all the charts.
This is an old Griswold #9 we inherited and have been using for years. It’s never had a very smooth surface, but mostly works well for what we cook, although I don’t think the “non-stick” aspect is all the awesome on it. We have been using exclusively wood tools, but I recently got a new metal spatula (Lamson fish spatuala) and it is vigorously dislodging the thicker deposits and exposing another surface below. Is it scraping down to bare metal, or is this just a bunch of charred food sitting on top of the real seasoning? Should I keep scraping it off? Thanks!
We have a basic electric glass top range from 20ish years ago. I’ve always been disappointed in the stovetop performance for wok cooking. Are there newer or better models that can achieve a hotter temp than what we have?
I have two self-hosted instances that had been working well for many months. These are at remote locations and are primarily being used as convenient reverse proxies, not on a VPS. Out of nowhere one of them stopped working correctly. URLs weren’t being resolved. I also discovered that I can no longer log in. Pangolin is running, but when I enter my username and password, it just refreshes back to the log in screen. In the logs via SSH I see only:
making login request to: http://localhost:3000/api/v1/auth/login
If I enter the wrong user or password I get a prompt that it was incorrect.
I tried updating the misbehaving instance to 1.21 but no difference. Then I tried to login to the second instance at the other location and have the exact same log in loop, however that one is still serving resources correctly. I’ve tried clearing website data and private windows, etc. What could be causing this? These are on Docker inside Proxmox Debian LXC. Thanks!
I’m sure I’m not the first to bring this up but it’s so atrocious that I have to speak my piece. Today, for the first time, I noticed that I can no longer load more than eight reviews for any product, even items with thousands of reviews, and I can no longer to go into depth by sorting or filtering. Amazon AI is presenting me with their cherry-picked reviews and that is all.
Whose bright idea was this? All it does is sour me from buying anything unknown on the platform. If I can no longer get into the weeds of real reviews, I have zero incentive to trust the marketplace in any way.
There’s a little button at the bottom where I was able to request to see more reviews, and supposedly in 5 days they will email to let me know if I’m allowed to, but based on a couple other references to this issue I found, everyone is being denied. What an absolute joke! Why aren’t more people up in arms about this absurd decision? Pitchfork time people!
I missed my chance to pick up a refurb Z6iii for $1511 because they sold out. Does Nikon offer these discounts on a regular basis?
2011 Prius, standard roof.
This spring I opened my back hatch and a ton of water flooded down the sides of it and into the trunk area. I pulled up the cargo bin and spare tire and there was a pool of water down there that I removed with a wet/dry vacuum.
I’m not sure where this water is entering. The door seal seems to be in tact. Is it common for the window glass seal to fail? Any tips on how to pin point the leak?
Also, anyone tried an ozone generator to deal with smells? There’s a strong mildew smell now, even though I removed the moisture right away.
Thanks.
For organizing photos, it’s nice that images are all separated by date, but when sharing an album with friends, or possibly clients, the layout isn’t very graceful. Are there any options to present photos a little more artistically? I’m looking for a better galley view, such as how they are presented in Pixieset. Are there add-ons, or options I’m not seeing in the settings? Thanks
I’m looking to get some new flat-folding softboxes for location work and obviously the new Godox Easyflows are prime contenders. I was comparing them against others like SmallRig and SMDV/Glow, but they seem to be a lot heavier.
For example the 60cm Octa is 980g, vs 725g for the similar sized SmallRig and 680g for the Glow.
The 90cm is 1340g vs 900g for the SmallRig Now I wondering, is this accurate, or is the weight I’m seeing possibly including/not-including the Bowens speed ring?
I know hardly anyone has been able to use these yet, but I’m leaning toward the SmallRig versions at this point, just for the weight savings. Any thoughts?
What’s the deal here? Overstock blowout or counterfeit?
I have a season photography job. I’ve always been a W2 employee for this company, for over a decade, and it’s a small amount of money (less than $1k annually). The last tax period, the company changed me to 1099-NEC status without telling me, and didn’t do any withholding. When I filed my taxes, I didn’t think that I’d need to claim this income as “self-employment” because this has always just been a job, where they set the schedule and I show up to work the hours.
Now the IRS is asking for an explanation/response or they will tax me as self-employed. What is the appropriate way to respond to this? Am I really on the hook for the full 15% in addition to the income tax? Thanks
Mix of the band's LED stage lighting and Godox flashes (because this little venue had no frontal stage lighting at all). ISO 5000, f/4, 1/200, 28mm. High ISO colors are fantastic on this sensor. I also applied LR Denoise which works amazing on these files. I was super hesitant to upgrade my D850s and G lenses, (and downgrade from 47 to 24MP)...but starting to come around.
Looking at both these lenses. $700 for 14-30, $1100 for the 14-24. Which deal would you jump on? I mainly shoot events, sports, lifestyle portraits, sometimes in rugged conditions. Worth the premium?
EDIT: Thanks y’all. I just needed a little group therapy to help me burn some more money. Going to go pick up this 14-24 now!
EDIT2: It had a moderate cosmetic ding near the control ring that didn’t affect performance. Glass was perfect, performance and sharpness was flawless. Compared to my old 17-35mm, I don’t find it overly heavy at all (and it’s no bigger than the 24-70). Walked away with it for a cool $1k. Very stoked. 😁🤙
