    I was 10 when the Cranberries released "Dreams". I remember the first time I heard it on my dad's fancy stereo in my parent's basement. I was fascinated from the moment I heard that opening guitar chord. This song ended up on many of my mix tapes (and later mix CDs) throughout the 90s. Still to this day it makes me feel like I'm at home sitting on the floor listening to the radio.

    It's the best Chromium browser. Company seems like it's run by decent people who listen to their users.

    Have kids! They'll make you feel old when they call the music you grew up with "oldies" or "classic rock".

  • Hi! I just switched to a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra a few ways ago, from a Pixel 7 Pro. I immediately disliked how the notifications came in collapsed by default. I found the option in notification settings to change the notification style to "Detailed" but they still show up collapsed and require an extra swipe or tap to expand. It's really annoying. Anyone know the cause of this? Or a fix? Is it a bug? For those on the OneUI 6 beta, is this fixed?

    Florida is a shithole of hatred and bigotry. If we're still building that border wall we should build it across the Florida border.
