I missed the puzzle earlier Thanks, will just sit down and put a few pieces in.
There's lots of room around the table
 
Good morning! That puzzle does seem fascinating. For a bfeak from it, the coffee cart stands ready to rejuvenate your mind and soul with warming beverages. Enjoy.

Well, that was a week, wasn't it? The coffee cart is ready to serve your virtual hot beverage needs ,as well as to provide a space to debrief, work on the jigsaw puzzle, or one of the sudoku or crossword puzzles. Enjoy.

Are there still folks that believe this world is sane?

It is said the projected image of sane/insane is a split image ... so that if you think one it may be the other to support the paradox!

Tis an Eire thing heh ... temporal until clipped ...
 
I got my new Kia Soul onThursday. Still planning to read the entire instruction booklet. Love the heated seats and steering wheel. Junior switched over my new winter tires and gave me a gift of a stick with music, as new cars don’t come with cd players anymore. My phone is too old, but he loved that he could charge his phone wirelessly while he was programming my driving computer. I have to read instructions for that. Now I got to do some shopping. The problem will be to find a safe parking spot where nobody is ramming their door into my new car.

Yeah, once you update your phone, hopefully it has Apple Carplay and Android Auto. Our CRV has those and I can basically just plug my phone in and use either Spotify or MP3 files stored on my phone for audio. It also lets me use my phone as my car's GPS for navigating.

The Soul and its stablemate the Niro are both available as EVs now and would be high on my list if I was going to electrify. The Hyundai Kona (same platform as the Niro, I think) also rates highly in its EV trim.

I have become rather fond of the Korean cars and they are probably what will eventually get me off of Honda, if I ever move off of Honda.
 
Good morning! I also miss a CD player in my 18-month old car. I could likely break down and get a music player compatible with the thing, With all those buttons and options, I should be able to contact the International Space Station. Ah well, at least the radio works.

Anyway, the coffee cart is up and running. As we remember features in cars gone by, let us soothe our spirits with warm beverages.

CD's are obsolete like common people in the minds of emotionally incited powers. It could be a corruption ... as I'm discouraged from knowing such things!

The debill did it as dark demiurge ... demos (common, ordinary, regular) folk don't read into such nous-antes to powers ... thus subtle powers are covered up! Stood under or understood? Processing beyond said horizon event!
 
I have no idea how to make use of most of the technology in our CRV. Apparently I am a Luddite at heart and see no advantage to all these features requiring more than a knob and dial.

Yes, I get grumpy when I can't remember the secrets to using the cd player in my home. A son told me it is necessary to use a remote that isn't the one for the cd player, What!! How does one know which of the four remotes is the one to use when it isn't the one for the cd player????? And why the bleep are there four in the firstplace?? How can thispossibly be an improvement over on/offbutton and volume dial?
 
lol, kay, i can relate to the remote aka clicker dilemma.

I am pondering spoiling myself, on an item, and the thing that is holding me back, is that the maps that an existing technology and the new one are two separate maps. I am pondering waiting hoping for the next release of the tool to actually sync

My wife accidentally turned on the radio in Little M's bedroom this morning (he's in Ottawa) and I had to figure out how to turn it off. Figuring out gadgets was his thing so neither of us really learned to use that radio very well.

As to remotes, our TV remote kind of sort of can be used to control our Chromecast, too, but in a limited way. Basically only Play, Pause, and Stop work. We can't fast forward or rewind. So we are basically down to 1 remote plus whatever device we are casting from. I have a remote for my Bose smart speaker, too, but rarely use it now. It's just as easy to use either the Bose app or Spotify (which automatically detects and recognizes the speaker), depending on what I am listening to.

I have an alarm clock-radio, that seems to have no 'off' switch for the radio. All I know how to do is set the sleep timer for 10 minutes (the lowest available setting) and wait for it to turn itself off in 10.
 
Is technology in it rush to cause us a dilemma ... having great success in leaving humans behind?

Soon we will not be required as the world is machine led ... w/o care or concern given that machines don't feel that way!

Dilemma: an argument forcing an opponent to choose either of two unfavorable alternatives.

I.E. the lesser of 2 weevils if either or the deuce ofem bug yah!
