Looks great; love the concept and the design. Reminds me in a way (conceptually) of a DOS program I used to use when I was at my desk more. It’s called Carousel, it’s one-file-per-day as well, but multiple topics which you rotate through (hence Carousel). I don’t need this kind of thing as much anymore, but I appreciate the creativity that goes into them, and knowing they’re out there.
I hadn’t thought about it before, but you’re right: the grocery delivery folks in the UK were always quite cheerful! We used Ocado mostly, and their drivers were always happy for a chat while unloading.
I’ve been using a DOS editor called Carousel. The “carousel” bit is that you can cycle through a number of files in named directories. Every day you start with a new file named by date.
It’s been excellent for me. I recently had an issue with my Yolink notifications being marked spam and phishing. I raised it with support, they immediately escalated, and it got sorted quickly.
Something is up with your web page. It stutters when scrolling, and crashes my tab. I’m using Safari on an iPhone 14 Pro running iOS 18.6.2 (22G100). No content blockers or extensions.
I don’t know that they’d need to be, though. British-style baked beans come in tomato sauce. I just checked my tins, and they’re 36% tomato according to the ingredients list. Unfortunately they’re not that cheap anymore. We pay over CDN$2+tax per tin these days if you buy the multipack. A far cry from the CDN$1.50 all-in those Tesco beans would be.
> "Xenomorph" is not any sort of official in-universe term for these things
In his briefing (about 23 minutes in in the Disney+ version of Aliens), Gorman says “all we know is there is still no contact with the colony, and a xenomorph may be involved.”
Give Whisky a shot. Yeah, it’s a 20 year old game, but I was able to get Half-Life 2 running at 1080p with all settings maxed on my Mac Mini. The only slow down I experienced was when a bunch of barrels exploded at the same time.
