ICYMI: I'm delighted to be in this month's #ShelfLife & impressed by the fab job @elcwt & @jasondrakeford did w/ it! youtube.com/watch?v=S5xJqFtPโฆ
@Chas_Battery Hiya! Any chance of a rain check for those of us stuck in this weather? We were really looking forward to the match, but donโt think itโs a good idea to drive through a flash flood๐

@TechmemePodcast Super interesting that todayโs NotebookLM version of the pod kept mentioning Hurricane Florence, which did cause major flooding in NCโฆin 2018. So the LLM correctly picked a hurricane that devastated parts of NC, but not the actual one that this story is about.

My battery capacity has been at 80% for a few months now. My @Apple Care plan (and corresponding free battery replacement if it drops below 80%) expires today. Do we think it drops to 79% tomorrow or waits a week to be polite? ๐๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐

Sidenote, highly recommend getting a UPS (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninteโฆ) for your router and modem, as well as for your parentsโ and other family. Parents donโt have power or reliable cell service at the moโ, but every few hours we turn the UPS on and @TachusFiber connects right away.

Legit the most useful outage tracker at the moment, because @CenterPoint hasnโt had a map for the past few months. Thank you @BBQBryan for figuring this out, and @Whataburger for having an accurate map in your app!
The Whataburger app works as a power outage tracker, handy since the electric company doesn't show a map.
Still nearly 1.9 million power outages.

@brianmcc Thank you for doing the story about iPhone 14 Pro battery capacity! Mine is down to 87% after less than a year, not running any betas, and with the always on screen disabled. And I swear the phone is already feeling slow, too!

Jenna's pet portraits are adorable, and her soaps are the only bar soaps I use anymore! She also designs logos and sells meat and eggs. This is a great way to support a small independent farmer! ๐

@TachusFiber Hi! Do we have an ETA for service restoration? Iโm supposed to teach an online class in ~20 minutes, wondering if I need to cancel. TIA!

@SobsInEpi Hello! I hope itโs not stepping out of line to tweet at you since replies on your COVID thread were limited, but I wanted to say (a) I hope you recover quickly and fully, and (b) I love the phrase โradical restingโ and hope you donโt mind me using it in the future!

@netflix Wait so if i want to keep watching Netflix on my work computer, then I have to haul my 27โ iMac home every month to connect it to my home wifi? Or keep requesting โtempโ codes? Nah. Iโll watch something else. thestreamable.com/news/confiโฆ

Earlier today I explained the concept of Milkshake Duck to my mom, and just now she said "You know, like that Marshmallow Hotdog thing from before". ๐คฃ

@TMFanSupport Hello! I've been in the queue for ATL-2 for 4.5 hours now on my desktop computer. May need to switch to laptop to go teach. Will my queue position be maintained across devices? Can you manually fix it if it doesn't automatically work properly?

@plant_crimes This reminded me of your "buying illegal plants online" episode! wired.com/story/nightmare-hoโฆ Kind of want to see if his full masters thesis is available to read--would be interesting!

I did a trial run of this a few months ago and maybe itโs because my dishwasher is 15 years old or because I only run it once a week, but my non-pre-rinsed dishes did not come clean. Are there real folks out there who manage to do this successfully?
Seriously: You don't need to pre-rinse your dishes. @Wirecutter ran 17 different dishwashers loaded with crusty, stubborn food stains. Even with zero pre-rinsing, each machine almost always did a fantastic job. nyti.ms/3VviMQC

@dustchick Also, hi! ๐๐ป A quick glance at your profile makes me think we should be friends! My bro and SIL just moved to San Diego and I was thinking I should meet some of the astronomers out there since I'll be visiting semi-regularly!

Stay safe, everyone in Ianโs path! And if youโre local and donโt already follow @chswx, fix that now! Best source for hype-free updates and useful RTs!
We still have plenty of supplies as you prepare for #HurricaneIan.
Re-suppply trucks are expected to arrive today & tomorrow.
