Same in Iowa. I grew up talking about going to Penny's (as in JC Penny) or Sernett's or Gibson's (local department stores).

Using GPS doesn't mean you can't be jammed. GPS is quite low power and easy to jam, and feasible to spoof[1].

I'd be interested in a frequency counter view, with a running average per minute or per second. So I can record that I see 10 Teslas per minute driving to work in the morning, but only 3 Teslas per minute on the way home at night (for example).

doesn't seem to work well for me. volume up and down sometimes register 1 count, sometimes 2, sometimes none. Deleted shortly after install, worried about what it's actually doing rather than counting.

Is anybody currently using Sidebery who could comment on how the Firefox "Tab grouping, Vertical tabs, and sidebar" compare?

I have a ZeTime that I used on and off for a couple of years. Now it's just sitting on a shelf. It was fine for my purposes at the time, but ended up inheriting an Apple Watch that's a lot more polished. I don't see ever going back to the ZeTime.
If you are interested, I'll let you have it for the cost of postage.

Oh, got it. I thought the tool wanted to go back and walk through a progression of previous backups. I can certainly do a new backup

Slightly off-topic, but how do I download an iCloud backup so I can scan it with this tool? The googles imply that I can only recover my device from the cloud, not retrieve old backups for other purposes.

Looks like some new formatting removed the "itemList" class. I'm no javascript/DOM hacker. Can somebody make this 2 column user script work with the new format?

Is there where somebody has to add "in lab mice" to the title?

The clock one is really cool, and I don't recall ever seeing it implemented on a website. Who used this?

Pretty sure the comment was about the video narrator pronouncing it "ek setera", not "et setera" or even "et ketera" (I counted 3 instances). And I agree, just like people who say "supposably[1]", it exposes somebody who isn't well read.
