Our household completely ditched all Amazon products and services 4 or so years ago and never looked back. I shop local and on alternative sites for everything, it took a little adjusting at first. I think we have had to buy something from Amazon maybe once or twice in the last 4 years because I we couldn't get it anywhere else. A few months ago I switched the 1 Amazon product we had owned forever, a Fire Stick to a Roku the first company I had ever used a streaming device from 10-15 years ago, I thought briefly about wiping the Fire Stick and donating it, but decided to toss it with the thought of adding someone else's user data to the Bezos empire.

Wow, such a cool concept. I grew up in a city of around the same size, (~100k) it would have been incredible to go from one end to the other without having to worry about being hit by a car on my bike.
Agreed, this experiment should be able to last by itself without feeling obligated to post something. If that's the case then it's failed.
Right? This has been rehashed so many times over the years. I've lost count.
The oils definitely help keep the food from sticking, in fact butter/margarine seem to work the best for whatever reason, but they just don't seem to compare to the non-stick ability of pam. I am using anodized aluminum pans. We were trying to find an alternative to throwing out multiple cooking spray canisters each month (we cook a lot and have a medium sized family). I've noticed this especially when cooking eggs (in the pans) and salmon on the grill.
I think I found for me that it was more the adult game content than anything else that kept me from playing a lot. My kids are 9 now, but when they were 3 or 4 Imy solution was to buy a psvita off ebay and use the remote play a lot. I think they have the same thing for phones and you can buy some pretty cool controller attachments. Although it's not perfect, it allowed me to play some more intense PS games from anywhere in the house, without having to worry about the little ones seeing them.
If the code is written well, it can save a bunch of time and provide a great forum for learning new techniques. Otherwise, if it's written poorly yes I hate it. Like others have state here the title is an over generalization.
lol, so true I deal with this ALL the time. A bike lane that abruptly spills into a road with cars going 35-40 mph. And for some reason the barely visible pavement worn bike lane symbol in the middle of the road is supposed to signify that somehow it's safe for you to ride there. "Share the road" my ass.
I think this is a good conversation to have, I'm assuming there are no security checks to make sure instances connecting to each other are legitimately released and code reviewed by the community? I'm also curious if you could run a malicious instance that garners a lot more information from your users than is necessary or uses security holes to gather information from other instances. This could send this entire experiment down the toilet very fast. For instance HTTPS guarantees you are connecting to who they say they are and are from a trusted source. At the very least it would be nice to be able to have control over your credentials and history, and only release it to trusted instances.
Great article, thanks!
