So many health benefits, "mental wellness" programs, etc. are ultimately all about "affecting you ability to work".

I get a free joint-pain exercise program. Every so often, the app asks me a survey which is all about "how many days did you joint pain prevent you from working", "do you expect your pain to cause you to take time off work" .

So is this review based on a prototype?

I moved from a UK city to a town on the edge of Dallas.

There was a crossroads with a strip mall. grocery store, dentist, food places etc, about 15 minutes away, but it was often too hot to walk. Anywhere beyond that was too far to walk.

Everything was so spaced out there. All the shops were surrounded by big parking lots. It was hard to even perceive that I was on a street with shops, at first, because everything was so far away from the road.

Now I live in a quiet street in suburb of LA. There's a main street about 10 minutes away. So within 20 minutes walk I can visit restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Even a British supplies store to get real chocolate. Bus stops, library, doctors, dentist, opthalmologist, and a hospital, too.

But if I want a big department store, I'm driving 15 to 30 minutes.

The broader LA area doesn't really have a center, just clusters of shops and malls at bigger crossroads. It seems endless. I could drive 50 miles to Newport Beach for vacation and never be outside a city.

I'm trying the fork now, thanks. So far, it's behaving. Thanks for the pointer to the logs, I'll take a look if it happens again.

Thanks. I'm giving that a try!

I have the phones connected, but the app just decides to disconnect and stay that way until I check it. I'll give that fork a try, thanks!

Do you use it on a phone too? I did find it tricky to set up (more options than I really need, and the phone app settings don't really work unless you select "Web UI", which is really strange), but I didn't mind the setup if I could then leave it alone and it works. Ideally I want to set this up on other family phones, so I can update notes and they appear everywhere.

Mars has blue sunsets though.

British fish fingers are usually mind-blowingly tasty compared to American fish-sticks. That might explain some of the disagreement.

Teletype with an acoustic coupler. You place the handset into the rubber cups that block out the sound, so that the modem noises were clear through the phone line.

The perforations in modern toilet paper are an homage to the holes in the punched tape used to feed the teletype pre-recorded instructions.
