1. Not sure.
2. Pinch/“snakebite” flat, maybe? Two nearby holes in the tube?
3. Check for sharp spots on the rim? Consider rim tape?
4. My rate of getting flats went way down after switching to Schwalbe Marathon tires. They’re made out of magical anti-flat rubber.

I see two main problems:

* It’s accurately detecting events in the same general area, and tagging accordingly.
* It often picks the wrong event, and there’s no UI to deselect or change what it picked.

I’m more annoyed by the second one. If we could just say “no, that’s X not Y”, it would be fine.

One would have thought …

(On the other hand, I guess this is just yet another facet of #AppleIntelligence that, well, isn’t all that intelligent, and it’s hard to keep track of all the promises at this point…)

I’m surprised I don’t see more mentions of this. The tagging errors are very reproducible, but I mainly see articles saying “event detection has been added for concerts & sporting events” but no follow-up to see if it works (it doesn’t).

Such a strange limitation. If the hardware is capable of detecting that the power source is inadequate, then the OS should communicate this information to the user so that they can, you know, try to find another power adapter. This doesn’t seem like it should be a difficult problem, no?

Ah yes, the Sav-Mor Memorial Pool And Mosquito Breeding Facility…

Right up front, too.

I’m in that photo. :-)

Yeah, absolutely. :-)

I’ve been here long enough at this point that that whole area used to be much worse, so I’m optimistic that things are bending in the right direction, albeit slowly.

(Hopefully the redevelopment of the former Winter Hill Star Market jumpstarts that part of Broadway…)

…as a resident of “this part”, I take umbrage with this. East Somerville is a great place to walk around, too, once one gets past McGrath, which both the Community Path and the Gilman Underpass are handy for. :-)

It may be that the norms will evolve and people end up accepting these things, but at least for now, I for one find it deeply weird, in a panopticon way, to be in the presence of somebody wearing a camera & microphone on their face, and a transparent screen I can’t see. It’s like being interrogated.

Ta for the note in the follow-up.

Also, this is Inman Square?

Well then howdy, ~neighbor! ;-)

I can’t see empty screw holes on the sidewalk in the last photo. Was the mailbox actually bolted down, or was it just standing there until the (apparently recently redone?) sidewalk to the right was ready for the permanent installation?

@snell.zone — I’m on the same line of thought about kayaks recently. I’m tempted to get one that I could tow with a bike to Boston Harbor, then paddle out from there. Oru has a bunch of models, including sea kayaks stable enough to use on bays, harbors, and open sea. REI often has them on sale, too…

Yeah, it’s ridiculous. Started in June as one sign, then another. For a week or so, it was “Berry” vs “Orange Cat”.

Then, more started appearing. A lot more.

I haven’t been by in a couple weeks, but as of mid-July, there were 32 signs, and I understand that the number has kept climbing since then.

On the same line of thought, I have a thrift-shop copy of an LP where Tolkien himself read & sang passages from “Hobbit” and “Fellowship”, and it really helps to hear how the author himself intended these lyrics to sound.

Luckily, somebody uploaded a copy to YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GsX...

I binged Serkis’s “Hobbit” & “LOTR” readings earlier this summer, and yes, they’re fantastic.

I also suggest giving the songs a chance. They’re my least favorite part of the books, just because they take me out of the narrative, but hearing a great actor put a melody & emotion to them really helps.
