    Taco blend doesn't seem too far off.  Chili powder should be prominent.  Cumin might be too heavy.

    i'm making fun of chili powder, which is already a blend, being a component of a blend recipe.  just start with guajillo.

    and fuck their stupid straw policy also.  Gotta ask the cashier for a straw when you buy a fountain drink.  Again,dumb as fuck.

    counterpoint: the mess made at the self service station by messy fucking people who a) can't figure out how to get just one straw out of the dispenser and so there's a bunch scattered around which are now trash; b) can't get the wrappers into the trash properly either

    This may be related to how you use it. Google maps is pretty good at turn by turn car directions.  It’s much shittier at being an actual map, which I use a lot as a frequent walker in cities that aren’t always familiar.  Screenshots below, one Google and one Apple. 
     

    I don’t see any comparison: Apple has more street names, less clutter, and a simple search returned only things directly related to what I wanted and not unrelated shit.

    Apple is shit in a lot of other places so I am not stanning Just pointing out that Google maps has gotten worse at being an actual, readable map.

    hate when i'm trying to zoom in or out on google maps and it thinks i'm selecting some bullshit point that it added.

    a little annoyed its impossible to find a specific charger while market is flooded with a billion usb chargers.

    want: 2+ USBC ports, 2+ USBA ports, 45w+ rating, uses power cable (so it can sit away from the wall), and from non-shit brand. 

    why doesnt someone like belkin make it? i have something similar from anker and monoprice and theyre both failing and both of them make wallwarts almost exclusively. and amazon has a million fake ass “Sponsored” chinese listings and you cant filter out of them. 

    Instead of a power cable use a short extension cord. I have a 3 foot one run into the drawer through the back of the nightstand for the charger

  5. my tv needs to do updates and some sort of anti-burn-in maintenance.  but it only prompts when you turn it on, with no option to delay it until turning the set off.  wth?  i turn on the tv when i want to watch something right then, not 10 minutes later.
