The problem with dark chocolate, is getting the flavanols without consuming a bunch of heavy metals.

berries it is!

The other problem with supplementing with too much choline may be elevated TMAO:

"Dietary Choline Supplements, but Not Eggs, Raise Fasting TMAO Levels in Participants with Normal Renal Function: A Randomized Clinical Trial"

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8410632/

It helps to mention what TMAO is:

> Choline is a dietary precursor to the gut microbial generation of the pro-thrombotic and pro-atherogenic metabolite trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO).

Helped a little?

My takeaway: do please go ahead and add egg to your diet.

Big Egg paid you to say this, didn't they?

I do prefer a Big Egg.

Brown ones, too.

I haven’t looked, but I bet that tracks with nutritional value.

There's no nutritional difference between brown and white eggs

Exactly something that the white egg-faction of Big Egg cartel would pay you to say.

Dagnammit - they're onto us and our misinformation campaign.

Best get back to just painting them brown.

But brown does usually mean "biggest egg you're going to get here"!

Yep brown eggs are laid by brown/red coloured breeds which do tend to be larger than white hens. They have the same nutritional profile though.

It seems that the active form of choline, phosphatidylcholine, also did not increase TMAO levels.

Some of us started long long ago, Android 1.0 time, when Google seemed like a different company. Their first blogs didn't mention splitting your personal google account from your developer account. I never heard of anyone getting banned. Oh boy, things have changed!

Has anyone seen Andy Rubin publicly comment on Google's stewardship of Android? I wonder what he thinks about his creation and the way its evolving.

Even though I don't use Gemini, I have a permanent Gemini 'FAB' located above the 'Start Chat' FAB in Android / Google Messages and I can't seem to get rid of it.

Material 3 guidelines say "Don't display multiple FABs on a single screen":

For those like me who didn't know what a FAB is, it stands for "Floating Action Button", which is intended to be the primary action for a page

Kagi, who up to now have been respectful of their users, have just introduced a floating 'Quick Answers' AI summariser button in the bottom right of their search results page on mobile - precisely where one would place one's thumb to scroll the page.

I've already inadvertently clicked on it once.

Very disappointing and they don't provide any toggle to remove it.

They’re going to remove it

> Very disappointing and they don't provide any toggle to remove it.

There definitely should be an easier way, but here you go:

  .qa-mode-box {
    display: none;
  }

I was wondering why I don't see what you see, but I realize I use Google Chat (which used to be XMPP, current status I don't know) and not Google Messages. What do you use this app for? RCS messaging?

Ah, the benefit of using the messaging app Google's neglected is the lack of this Gemini button...

I have the same problem with O'Reilly / Safari ... I don't enjoy using the apps and find they get in the way of the reading experience, plus it's a very expensive subscription. Initially, its hard to tell if rendering problems are just a bad conversion or if the text rendering engine is just buggy / borked.

But there were plenty of other bugs like bookshelf management getting corrupted.

Did we forget about WEI already? I'm sure Google is waiting for the right time to try it again.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Environment_Integrity

How would WEI prevent you from running a web-site with functionality similar to the removed apps?

Somewhat roundabout, but WEI can make it so you need to have an allowed device-OS-browser combo for important services like banking. The device can then make it impossible to install another OS, and the OS can make it impossible to install another browser. Then the browser (or the OS) just receives blacklists (and possibly eventually whitelists after everything is entirely corporate captured) from Google/Microsoft/Apple.

Vapcell is very popular in the flashlight community for providing unusual sizes like 16340, 18350, 18500, 26800, etc.

They re-wrap other manufacturer's cells (but don't disclose who). I dislike this practice because, along with not knowing who makes the cell, you lose the original mfg batch codes, etc.

Sometimes they will simply rewrap something like a Samsung 50S. Those will be fine. But others ... who knows.

Gradle keeps on improving. I use it for Android, and even though it is complex, and then add the Android Gradle Plugin complexity on top of that, I would not trade it for the iOS build system.

One of my complaints with Gradle is that if you write a plugin (Java) it shares the classpath with other plugins. You might find some other plugin depending on some old version of a transitive dependency.
