Agreed on all counts. I’ve never thought of my AeroGarderns as IoT devices and in fact never configured the wi-fi, which was always kind of a goofy stunt anyway: It’s got front panel controls.

Why tf is the OP’s comment to a reasonable question being downvoted so hard?

I love docs about civil engineering, especially bridges and dams. Modern Marvels has a couple of good episodes on the subject, told/produced in that program’s typical format, including the Golden Gate Bridge and The Hoover Dam.

But my favorite is a 1997 episode of Nova called Super Bridge ( https://thetvdb.com/series/nova/episodes/1357201 ). The footage is great, the narration is great (I think its Hal Holbrook!), the storytelling is great, and it showed a great deal of stuff I didn’t know I would be fascinated by, while remaining down to earth.

Seconded for Pikmin Bloom. it really his am walking app as much as much as it is a game. I like Pokemon Go and Ingress too (from the same company), but this is the lightest weight, cutest, and most suited to being able to put it away during your walk if you want.

Totally agree. PWHL Hockey is fantastic in that regard. So fast!

Quotation marks for a question is a beautiful way to say that!

This and their Dub Side of the Moon album are SO fine.

Archive.org gets crapped up this way, too. Repulsive people posting repulsive stuff, “troll” is too kind a word.
