That, I suspect, was true when I replaced my iPhone under AppleCare and the replacement has been really wonky. Various flimsiness with the body of the phone, GPS is spotty and sometimes completely fails. Disappointing.

That's interesting about the touchscreen? Do you feel any need to get a 2-in-1 or is he simple touchscreen sufficient? I'd interested in a 2-in-1, but they don't run Linux real well and there are other issues, including cost.

I live in a hot, humid area, and there are many people who don't go outside because of the discomfort. That said, I also have young kids, so my cohort actually is outside for hours per day year-round, and it's really not that bad

One way it might make sense is in how much return you get for it over the rest of the years of your life. That's one "problem" with education; the payoff is very much later than the goods are delivered, and the goods are fair

Surely we all understand what you're pointing out, but the idea of looking back at this is to see what we've forgotten and to learn something of value from the past, which surely does have a lot to offer. If we ignore the wisdom o

At this point aren't they at risk of thieves (elected officials) conspiring to take huge pieces of that money?

The preference for white meat is almost pathological. Constantly I hear (I cook and teach people to cook) people complain that they can't get chicken right, that it's dry or rubbery. And then they REFUSE to cook or try thighs inst

But they're stuck with two distinct platforms: iOS (touch) and macOS (non-touch) while the hardware the world wants is not so binary. Basically, that we can't touch the screens of the high cost workstations and laptops where we do

I haven't seen one, but I think about it a lot. Locally I'm co-coordinating an in-person group where we start meetings learning about civil discourse and rhetoric and mediation concepts, then we move on to a specific policy issue
