  • Different issues. The 101% issue is that the released video is shorter than the time elapsed on the timestamps. The difference between timestamp and playback speed adds up over time to 7ish minutes iirc.

    This issue is that the video is made from two clips. One cuts out at 11:58:58 and the other immediately cuts in at 12:00:00, showing a 00:01:02 gap in the timestamps. Examination of the file shows details of the source clips, indicating that the first clip continued for multiple minutes after the cut. That would make it overlap with the second clip, which is played in its entirety.












  • If your primary usecase is text, don’t get a color e-reader. There are significant downsides to the display quality for very little benefit.

    If you are wanting to read comics, manga, or illustrated guides, then you will want the color.

    I’m a big fan of the Kobo Libra design. It’s friendly to software mods and has a rail for holding it with a nice big button that sits under the thumb for page turning.

    I find that the Kindle-style thin bezel gives no comfortable way to hold an e-reader since the only good place to put your thumb is on the screen, the primary input method. It leads to a bad experience and turns people off from e-readers.






  • From early recalls, it looks like the product was sold direct by the grower and to Sysco, a major distributor. A huge portion of restaurants use Sysco, and Sysco hasn’t specified what states they sent impacted product to in the recalls I’ve seen.

    I was digging through my purchases this morning looking at the recalled Sysco items. I have a few places on the west side of the US using a few of the items, but those distribution centers were sourcing from a different grower.

    Food goes through so many hands that early-stage contamination recalls tend to take a while to cascade out to things that are useful to a end-user.
