If there’s a Latino market near you, try Peruvian Inka Kola. Tastes the same to me.

Famously

I had to look this one up. Apparently it signifies a character referenced by serious fans but unknown to others.

Eh, you can’t sing shanties if you’ve got two legs, and you don’t own a boat, and you’ve got no beard.

God damn the autocorrect, too!

Those were my sentiments exactly.

Star Trek or Simpsons?

I answered an ad like this posted by Elcid Barrett back in Nova Scotia. Now I’m a broken man on a Halifax pier, the last of Barrett’s privateers.

I don’t know that I’d recommend the career.

My friend, I believe you were thinking of corn. In fact, þorn is an American nu metal band from Bakersfield, California, originally formed in 1993 by James “Munky” Shaffer, Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu and David Silveria.

Door dashing a lemon!? A succulent yellow lemon!?

Missing Data’s daughter, unless she was the replica of his mother.

I don’t think you need to prevent angled entry; take the deepest measurement achieved at any angle.

Thanks! Will review.

Heck yeah, I’d read that. Feels like it could have been a Hal Clement story idea.

Same here. I’ve never seen it in the real world.

Oh man, there were a pair of middle-aged guys at the table behind me at a restaurant recently, and I SO BADLY wanted to join their conversation! Favorite Romulan ship class, U.S.S. Pegasus: treaty violation or necessary development?, Best DS9 episodes… they were my kind of people.

You betcha. For people who care to use something other than the stock launcher, the way we set up our home pages is a bunch of personal preferences that you may not even be able to fully list.

Here’s what I’ve got so far, but I’ve only been playing for a week. Everything below the calendar widget and above the podcast widget is an app “drawer”. It scrolls vertically if I have more apps than for on the visible part, and I get to set the number of displayed rows and columns, labels, icon shape, etc as you’d expect.

You can put stuff in folders of course, and in the paid version, SUB folders, and there’s also that odd search and tag button group on the right. You can tag apps with one (or more?) labels like “work” and filter the visible app drawer by that. I don’t use that so far.

I get to choose how many apps are pinned at the bottom (Or get rid of the bar altogether!). I have swipe actions on some of them. Every single element of the screen can be resized, overlap (there’s a button to move an item forward/backward through the layers), be moved, or gotten rid of. At minimum, you could have an absolutely blank screen top to bottom, and a swipe from (any) edge action to open one of the app drawer variants. The whole screen could just be the app drawer.

It’s not QUITE perfect for me, because I’m annoying and picky, but it’s working well enough. I’m feeling like I’ll be fiddling with this forever. There’s even a Star Trek LCARS theme that I want to try. ($5 I think)

I think this is common to all launchers, but you can try this one or and NOT set it as your default launcher. You’ll only see your Total Launcher home screen when you click on the Total Launcher app from the stock launcher, then, until you are happy with it.

I was on Nova for several years happily. I’m now on the free version of Total Launcher, and it’s pretty fun. It’s extremely customizable, more so than Nova was.

I tried Lawnchair but it was far too basic for me.
