Are you saying that suggesting employees to work from home is a sensational, over-the-top move by the tech companies? There's so many things wrong with what you just said. It's not just the "sniffles". Even if someone yo

The honking situation in India genuinely fascinates me (apart from driving me insane). If someone's not experienced it, you won't know what we're talking about. Comparing it to France / other places won't do justice

I legit had to google how to Shut down / Restart a Windows 8 machine back then! It's insane to think that tech people could not figure out the UI, imagine what the regular people had to go through.

I'm not denying the bad things the Internet brings but are you saying because of those things you listed, it's better to have remote/poor people with limited access in third world countries remain disconnected?

The comparison is between a laptop having just the one screen VS a laptop with another screen squeezed in irrespective of the angle. As long as I can have my terminal down there or my Lightroom film strip or a Youtube podcast open, that&#x2

That's exactly what I've been doing. But I value portability - I'm a (hobby) photographer as well and my backpack includes 2 lenses and a Nikon D850 (combined > 10lbs!) + my MBP 2015 + My usb-C powered second screen. I tra

Is it? Honestly, I've played around with wine a long time back and realized I can't use it for serious stuff and still sorta carried that thinking. Might have to give it a try again.

I'll give you a better example - I'm an English speaking guy consuming regular US content. I travel quite often and when I'm in non-english speaking places like Thailand, I see ads on Youtube(mobile) purely in Thai language.
