When in video meetings with team members, there are often a few people who do not turn on their video camera because of some reason given like "they are shy" or something. This is unacceptable because they have no problem with sho

It's not your imagination. They did print better even at 600 dpi. Output quality will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but I wasn't impressed when some years ago I purchased a Samsung laser and noticed that it had tiny litt

A big reason for why this is in my opinion, is not that they don't want to get an update, it's because of corporate politics. Someone has to be the manager that goes "boss, I want to spend money and resources to update an ess

I've never quite understood this MS policy of "ending support" but continuing support anyway for extended support contract customers or for specific versions, etc. The way I look at it, MS obviously is actually continuing to

I use an older version of Android so I don't have this feature.. but you can still work around it by using live transcribe or otter.ai instead, if it plays through the speakers it will be heard (they will not work with headphones conne

There is an advantage to being able to take them off. Crying babies, dogs barking, lawnmowers, etc. go bye-bye. Your body still feels the vibrations which of course is biologically stressful (e.g. constant vehicular traffic), but psychologi

Yes, I do. Where I live, winters are long, so none of the heat is wasted. But that aside, the real reason is the quality of the light. Spectra! Incandescent lighting is a black body radiator basically, so you will have a full spectra curve

I wonder if the information on the IP addresses is made available in a plaintext form stating the reason why they are on the list, or if it's just a blank feed of only IP addresses? It will be interesting to see when IP addresses start

There is value in a lowest common denominator. Originally SMS was fantastic because it was "free" in that it fit into the unused space the towers were sending anyway. If SMS was to go away, and if RCS wasn't used, then the de

Still no RCS for iMessage. Ridiculous. So it's SMS or some other app with iOS users. Hello Apple? Your market isn't only the USA.

Other than the fact Vulkan is just an api like OpenGL and DirectX, it's high performance because it performs better than the other GLQuake forks.

The way reddit implemented the block is very interesting also. If you wish to control a conversation in some sort of strange manner, all you need to do is state something outrageous and plainly wrong, and then block the other person arguing

No election campaigns either, they are all dictators-for-life unless reddit head office decides they need to be involved. This is the same issue IRC has. In the old days, if you were lucky, sometimes you could unseat a tyrant, but modern IR

The NBA community is just for entertainment purposes not serious sports research and discussion. It has 5 million nephews. If 1% of that number decide to participate on any given day, that's going to be 50,000 nephews out in force.

The downvoting thing is interesting.. I fairly often upvote comments with 0 if they haven't said anything bad or objectionable just to make things more fair. The mods on subreddits are a problem too. There is no recourse. If they decid

I'm still using a Broadwell CPU. 2 cores. It works perfectly fine. I don't use the computer for gaming and do try whenever possible to do so to use h.264 which is fully hardware accelerated. The machine does not feel slow to me. I

I love email, but not everyone does well with it. There is no tone or body language with email, you have to read into it and if you don't know what you're looking at or who you're talking with, you have to evaluate all sorts

Unless one of the participants has some degree of hard-of-hearing, in which case, being able to see the other person's lip movements is really helpful.

It's odd that the browser supports AC-3 but the MS video player does not unless you pay for the codec, while all the other video players include it. Going with AV1 is not an option for the vast majority of people as it requires hardwar

You can install Duokan on it. It's a dual-boot. Has EPUB and PDF support. Company has pulled support for it now, but if you install it anyway, you can still load your files locally.

So why not get some Matias switches (3 to choose from), or a keyboard then? You can buy a switch tester from them and see if you like the feel of this implementation of it. It's too bad they don't send it out with some random keys

I have had exposure to multiple different switch types over the years, not as many as enthusiasts however. Personal preference being expressed here, while I can and have used buckling springs at length, they are not my favourite for two rea

The answer to this question depends on the resolution of the display, the weight of the font, and a person's idiosyncrasies--e.g. nearsightedness. I use a different font for online reading, coding and reading ebook on high-resolution p
