I saw rusted out cars and trucks all over the place when I visited northern Minnesota and the UP of Michigan last year. Even late-model cars that couldn't have been more than 5-10 years old had rusted out rocker panels.

Please add the ability to sit in a window seat. It'd be awesome to also be able to pick a seat. Also, the login UI is annoying, it'd be nice if it was hidden by default. Another thing that might be fun to add is to see if you can

For me, it was reverse engineered. I am not an expert or even conversant in decompiling Android APKs. It took the decompiled Java (app was apparently written in Kotlin) and extracted all the necessary information. Call it what you will, the

Using AI to reverse engineer undocumented Bluetooth protocols has been a godsend for me. We have an RV that came with a "Smart RV" system from BMPro that controls all of the lights, the air conditioning, starting the generator, le

The moment he talked about "remote pilots managing many planes," I closed the tab. Remote pilots sound great until something goes wrong, and things inevitably go wrong, not often, but they go wrong. I will never fly on any aircraf

No. It isn't. With acronyms, there's often plenty of potential things it can stand for, and if the person doesn't know enough to know which one is the correct acronym, Googling it isn't going to help them. As OP said, si

There is a definite mental aspect for most WFH folks to having a space that is dedicated to work. I'm not unique in saying this, but the way I put it is "If you work from anywhere in your house, then you're always at work.&qu

While the employees might be happy at Publix, they are in, in my experience, poorly trained. Also, the rest of the shopping experience is utter crap compared to H-E-B. Publix of 2026 is a far cry from Publix of ~2000. This is especially evi
