I save enough money in gas alone (let alone eating lunches out) to more than make up for this subsidy of me paying for my home office/electricity/Internet. And I also get to not freeze to death in a noisy open plan office all day.

I am laughing hysterically at this from my university town with four campuses spread out over a hilly landscape, tons of traffic and limited public transportation schedules that would triple commute time for most workers. Things are set up

Unless you have a medical problem. Then there goes your standard of living, and perhaps your entire family's standard of living.

Can you imagine that there are people in this country who, (even though they are lucky enough to live where there is public transport) don't want to triple their commute time by using public transport?

Especially during something like gaming, this could be overheating. Very common with gaming on phones.

This is true to a point, but it completely disregards the historical phenomenon of the "witch hunt". McCarthyism seemed to originate in a "good place" at first, to most Americans (patriotism and anti-communism). It went

Set up your own server and ban the people you want to ban. It's that simple.

They will be exciting for education, once accuracy can be hugely improved. I mean, we'll use them anyway, but there will be some kids who believe some totally untrue things that the chatbot told them in school during the early years.

It's sad that the rest of your educational environment let you down to that degree. That's what makes it sad. Good for you, making up the deficits, though.

Phosgene is heavier than air (and so it sinks to ground level). That's why it was used in trench warfare in WWI. It would have stayed down where the workers were, not floated up by the ceiling. Those would have been other toxins up the

Yes, go back in time and tell the Elizabethan playwright whose work you need to study for your Literature class that they shouldn't use Roman numerals as is the custom, because it might cause you problems in a few centuries. Sure. Ther

It's kinda shameful that only one screen reader can read the Unicode. All screen readers should be able to read all Unicode symbols properly. It's hideous that people with accessibility needs have to put up with such shoddy produc

You get out of Reddit what you put in or look for most of the time, and well, some people are apparently looking for the scum from the bottom of the Internet, so they find it.

If you weren't looking at it, then how would you know it was there? I never ever see that stuff on Reddit, because I never look at those subs.

Bad choice of example, because a tape recorder has no network connection and requires some effort to capture into a digital format that can easily be shared on a network. Unlike tape recorders, recent digital devices and apps often harvest

I have a wifi webcam with no Internet access at my front door. It doesn't need Internet access (in fact, it's blocked from going outside the router). It's happily streaming video onto my home network. I just open the stream i

If I still have to hire a contractor, then why on Earth would I direct buy from you? The only reason I'm even interested in reading this post is the idea of installing myself with no contractor involved. I can't imagine why anyone

If you're going to do the high tech intensive route, though, then you must needs also have a security expert on staff, and I bet you that's a rare thing.

If you don't like interviews, then don't read interviews. Complaining that they exist is just a waste of time.

Then just don't read interviews. You know what they are. Avoid them if you hate them.

Then perhaps reading interviews just isn't for you, and you should avoid doing that, if you don't enjoy a conversational style.

Absolutely. I turn the radio on many stations as soon as the DJ or reporter come on, because the booming bass in a speaking voice in the car is just auditory torture. If I do want to leave it on a local station during a news report, I often

We aren't upset that the FBI "did what anyone else would do". We're upset that the FBI used this to do an end-run around the federal laws.

At least MS doesn't demand an active cell phone number through which they can physically track you everywhere you go (not just where you are right now), like ChatGPT (VOIP and landlines not accepted, only cell).
