I stayed in TO for a year back in 07. The PATH was my favourite feature of the city. Part of it was under construction and, late at night, entirely free from other pedestrians. Felt like I was alone in a dystopian sci-fi horror film. Wonderful, terrifying memories.

Anything for deer flies and horse flies?

I second this. I’m stood outside work being dive bombed by three of them as I type

The introduction of The Groke absolutely terrified me when I was younger. I put it up there with the Xenomorph in terms of a mysterious, capable, superior foe.

Yes, same here.

Let's just QUIT using Reddit. Enough is enough. If we tolerate corrupt behavior, we support corrupt behavior.

And quite honestly, it's become such a pile of trash, anyway. Also, it's become so obvious that submissions and comments are being manipulated and pushed by tons of bots and industry interests, it's just a bad joke at this point.

The day Apollo ceased connecting is the day I deleted my account. I wish Steve and the crew my very worst.

Merlin's podcasts, particularly Roderick on the Line and the amazing Reconcilable Differences with John Siracusa, are amongst my favourite things to listen to.

Okay? I'm not sure what your specific usage really added to the discussion especially considering the camera phone is typically people's only camera nowadays so I feel like you'd be an outlier if anything. Photos and video already take up a huge amount of space on the phone; I don't even take a ton of pictures of my kids (my SO usually does) but even my phone, after 6 months of usage, has 3 gigabytes taken up in photos and videos. It goes really, really quick.

With 4K and 12 megapixels? It's going to go by so fast...

A lot of people use their phone that way. If no-one was buying the 16 gig version Apple would stop making it.

I really love the no-nonsense FAQ: https://overcast.fm/skeptics_faq

I wish everyone would write such clear and concise FAQ. I especially love the answer to question 'Why is the app free?'

I loved the Instapaper app and will definitely buy this app. The current podcasts app on iOS platform are terrible. The only app I am able to tolerate is 'Downcast'.

Castro is a great podcast app.
