this False Fall weather we've had in NY for the past couple of weeks has been wonderful but also feels really out of pocket for AUGUST
happy Friday

there's a new album from The Hives out today
the 2025 Yankees are excellent at beating up teams far worse than they are and completely inept at playing against any competitive teams
I'm a type-A-neurotic-get-to-the-airport-four-hours-early-anxious person that is functionally incapable of keeping my home office and desk clean and tidy

make it make sense
that is my house! I liberally use do not disturb rules during the workday (I wish I could also gate the notifications to when I'm actually home -- an alert that the washer is done when I'm at the office isn't very helpful!)
exactly! (ours are in the basement)
or forgetting to set a manual timer when you start the load.

I also have these hooked up to our Google smart speakers and displays, so half a dozen things throughout the house announce when the loads are done as well. (might be overkill)
my units are almost 8 years old, I don't know if they even have an AI wash cycle. loading any cycles from the app is super tedious and annoying so I never do it. I just want the notifications!
I generally agree with those that are tired of every appliance getting questionably useful "smarts", but I legit love getting a push notification when our washer or dryer is done. now it's also including tips based on local conditions, which is neat! (it was really humid out today)
news to me, haven't seen any myself!
no, afaik that's only available on select Samsung faces. not sure if that's something third party faces have access to. this does have like six different AOD options though

(I assume you're referring to the all red or all green switchover certain faces do in low light)
if you're looking for a fresh WearOS watchface, I cannot recommend this one highly enough

info dense w/o being busy; extremely customizable; works for sporty or more classic looks. it's my fav 3rd party watchface and what I repeatedly go back to

I was in the mid Atlantic DMV area last week and it seems like Walgreens is really popular there. so many people wearing hats with the Walgreens logo on it!

I'd rep Duane Reade myself but I can't find a hat with the logo on it

(I've done this many times over the last half decade, contrary to popular narratives, it's fine)
some people go bungee jumping for thrills, I use a folding phone at the beach
if I was an announcer for baseball games, every time a team gets their first hit of the game I'd say "well there goes the no hitter"
