No idea where you found that phone number (it's sure not easy to find on their site), but I'll have a try in the morning...

I mean, it's not a big deal for me to just buy more soap since the first container of soap went missing, but it's also not really how I thought Amazon's e-commerce model worked.

So I thought @amazon used to have UI to tell them that an order marked as delivered ("left at mailbox") wasn't actually delivered. Now I can't find any such UI and the help content basically says "contact USPS".
Is the assumption now that I just pay for the thing again?

On Friday, Whole Foods had 4 bags of store-brand organic all-purpose, and maybe 15-20 bags of King Arthur bread flour (non-organic).

Things aren't that uniform. bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773… is a bug I filed in the current (for a few more weeks) Ubuntu LTS release that was a relatively recent regression, and that's in the *date* command. (Though it appears to be fixed in 19.10.)
A photo of an urban environment I like [22/N]:

In general, I like central city neighborhoods that have built a decent number of skyscrapers but also preserved the nicer half of the older generation of buildings in the gaps between them. I think of Toronto and Sydney as the best examples of this.

Other temperature and humidity effects could be from how they affect how long the virus survives on surfaces. I'm aware of ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article… on this effect for other coronaviruses; not sure about research on this for SARS-CoV-2.

I have different colors, but (a) the settings appear to be separate for desktop (web) and Android and (b) I have too many calendars to remember all the colors.

Google Calendar feature wish: For each calendar I subscribe to, the ability to associate an emoji (or image) with it that will show up on all the calendar events from that calendar.
(Also, really, other per-calendar settings like setting or ignoring alarms.)

Y2K is now farther in the past than January 2038 is in the future.
In January 2038, the common signed 32-bit time representation (seconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00 UTC) overflows & resets back to December 1901.
People ought to start being worried about what will break then.

Windows 3.1 ran on top of MS-DOS, and at the time it was released, the current version of MS-DOS was 5.0.
