    On my older #Android devices, disabling Google Play Services was impossible. Or maybe I just remember it wrong. On the new phone, I was able to disable it. Of course, now any time something Google wrote launches, it notifies me that $APP_OR_SERVICE_NAME cannot function unless Google Play Services is enabled.

    Funny that. Everything works fine. (And I'm accumulating a list of things that are not allowed to notify me.)

    Yes. She'll be 13. That's probably the tamest card she'll get.

          Last year, when I was working in Sacramento, one of the businesses down the street had a landscaping crew that came a couple of mornings per week. They started before 05:00, and were still going when I left for work about 90 minutes later.

          Mowers, trimmers, leaf blowers. They were pretty noisy.

            Teachers returned to a Georgia school district last week. 260 employees have already gone home to quarantine. The point isnt that they all got sick on day 1. The point is that only testing on day 1 caught this before it spread in school. MUST. TEST. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/08/04/school-outbreaks-reopening-georgia/

                        Toe report: the big toe and its neighbor are no longer sore. The small toe and its neighbor are still partially numb.

                        After whacking my foot pretty hard in #PR, it took about a year for foot and toes to return to normal, so I just need to be more careful about where I step.

                          I got lots of birthday notices in my inbox from JD. I consider it an example of "All information that you collect, you will eventually store. All information that you store will eventually be misused." Why? At the time I and most of my contacts joined, #Diaspora was _the privacy-centric network_. Birthdays were not going to be used to trigger alerts and e-mails to tell everyone about them. But here we are.

                            Remember when #IEs4Linux was a thing? You could see how your site looked in what was then the most popular browser without having to run Windows.

                              Not so many people today. Good. But they were here earlier and left a mess.
