@energygearLLC @Gatorade One pertinent point to remember here: all the 12oz bottles *were kids flavors* -- which is why they were often shelved separately. This probably has an effect on that and berry, which were only available in 12oz.

@UPS And everyone except me knew it would cross-deck to USPS for the last mile, losing another day it didn't have to lose. @eBay? It is well past time for you to bake BUYER shipping choices into the auctions; I'm pretty tired of being at the mercy of sellers making stupid picks.

You know what, @UPS? I am glad that I cost you $35-60 to take my tracking phone call in which you told me, essentially, that you couldn't tell me anything and wouldn't go find out. Hope you get 1000 more of those every day. #Procedures #CostOfSales

@UPS Hilariously, @UPS listened, but I have two replies here from *people pretending to be UPS*, which they should look into... and the package is (finally) moving.

The Kennedy Center board voted on Thursday to inscribe President Trump’s name on its building, aggressively testing a federal judge’s order to remove it, according to two people with direct knowledge of the proceedings. nyti.ms/45mzwzY

PS: Do *not* bother to try to save this one here, unless whomever is on the pointy end is willing to *telephone* the PA 'access point', and ask if the package is physically in someone's hands.

Somewhat of a shame that @blockbuster has gone silent. I miss those Friday nights with @dominos and @BarqsOfficial ...

@TheRealSpaf I get the impression Lindsay (who's been running the web interface/archive for some years) hasn't heard anything to that effect as yet; you might want to loop him in; he's at Newcastle.

@TheRealSpaf Sadly, I jumped to Bluesky, not Mastodon, but perhaps the noise level's down enough you'll see this.. I quite liked your obit for PGN, though it's sad you had to write it. I gather that the path was quick enough that Peter had other things to deal with than RISKS...

@TheRealSpaf That would be wonderful, and if I can be of assistance, let me know.

I've just been told that Big Pharma has been, potentially, playing fast and loose with asthma inhaler patents--this is a longstanding problem--by filing new patents *based on the packaging*, and then claiming that the *medication* is protected for another 17 years. Thoughts?

Hey, people with passive-aggressive "Continue without Supporting Us" buttons on your adblocker popups? I run an adblocker because *EVERY VIRUS ATTACK I'VE EVER SUFFERED* came in on a third-party ad network's JS. Since I started blocking third party, not a single attack.

@SwiftOnSecurity If it's in a draft, didn't you just put it in from the machine? If it's in the message you're *quoting*, just go to the received mail and save it from there. I'm not terribly surprised if Outlook treats a quoted message as just a render inside its compose editor.

RFE: When @Facebook is building a preview for a @YouTube link *with a t= time marker* -- at least they don't eat the parameter these days -- they should grab the thumbnail from the time mark, maybe plus a second or two, instead of from the center of the clip.

Once again, @Chase: that's not an "enhancement"; that's "you can't deposit your paycheck anymore". Your customer-facing app department *really* has to put the labor into continuing to support older Android releases; 13 is *not* getting it; lots of 12 and 8 still running happily.

Only difference: on FF I was logged into my eBay account (but not FF), in Chrome, was a non-logged in visitor.

Hey, @firefox, @eBay? Arrange a meeting. Pages take tens of seconds to render, and images tens of seconds to load, on your site, with *your* browser. Same machine, Chrome: same URL renders faster than I can measure it. Long time problem, just finally pissed enough to report.
