Anyone know if 2024 ford edge back hatch doors automatically unlock when you try to open it when the fob’s in your pocket? If so that’s horrible feedback if you just want to make sure all the doors are locked when you leave your luggage in the car 3 blocks from penn station nyc

If you're heading east I spent an afternoon in Zurich once. Because there was a Swiss traveler in our group. Friendly town. They probably all are if you've got 2 hours to kill on a summer afternoon.

Umm, Letter to Jimmy Page was played after The Curtain in Ottawa, not Montreal (7/5/94). Possibly the only My Sweet One audience singalong as well. Tapes of the show are echo-y because the venue was only about 1/3 occupied.

Just realized I can tell the world where the computer term "Cookie" comes from. Find the text for Robert Anton Wilson's "Schrödinger's Cat"— bookreadfree.com/200643/49696... will do. Search for "Simon was not the son of Mr. and Mrs. Walking Glitch of course" and read thru "smoothly again".

Did I mention how great current novels written by millennials are when they talk about how college students used the net in the mid '90s? Like only the uber-hackers could access their email when they were off campus. This time it's Tomorrow x 3 by Gabrielle Zevin.

This is why I'm keeping my word-guessing derivative under as much radar as I need while still having a decent amount of daily players. Finding out about it is similar to joining the Order of the Third Bird

The conference dream where you can't find a talk fails to instill the kind of anxiety one gets from the usual final exam dream.

If you were wondering about that song from the golfing episode of Hacks, I've got you covered:

Maybe that episode will do for Conlon and the Crawlers what Glee did for Journey. But prob not.

Funny how the area of southern BC that borders ID is so cool (esp. Rossland and Nelson) but northern Idaho screws things up. Like they rerouted US 95 from west of town to separating the downtown from the lake. Ten years ago, not in the freeway-addled 60s. At least they haven't ruined Wallace yet

What if the object is square-shaped? And what about those waterfront protrusion thingies that are partly built on landfill and partly on piles? And what if it's all of the above?

addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo... Chrome users can search for "tabhunter chrome extension", but that one doesn't support sorting by last-time visited.

For all of you reading but not replying, I wrote the tabhunter extension almost 20 years ago. On firefox you can sort tabs by neglect and close without worry tabs you haven’t visited in, say, 6 years

The podcast is great. Consistently one of the best since I got my first ipod in 2006. If doing what you're doing includes owning the conservatives, that sounds like a pretty good price to me. Also thx for getting me to dive deeper into the Small Faces, the Monkees, and def the Byrds
