Steam Deck's UI is personal preference. There is an annoying bug that if you play a game using a bluetooth controller, put the steamdeck to sleep, then resume later, controller support is dropped in-game. This basically makes the sleep

Not sure about getting a manicure, but speaking as a hetero man, getting a pedicure is amazing and I recommend every person with the means to, try it once.

Yes, I inferred that by having machines that were thought to be destroyed, the PC refurbisher got them in violation of an agreement. > Why would he pay for devices that he would be contractually obligated to destroy, at his own expense?

The original vice article had a key fact that is missing from the macworld article. The issue is the laptops are received by recyclers in an ill-gotten manner. Companies were sending thousands of laptops to be destroyed and instead the en

Do you prepare an agenda of topics you want to discuss? I prefer 1:1's to be your time. If weekly is too frequently for that, you should be allowed to schedule it on a frequency that works better for your needs.

Re: Small Claims: If it’s brought by someone who makes a living by being obnoxious harassing private citizens in public, how much sympathy would that get from the judge?

I'm assuming you're not from the US, right? Cost of Living is a standard used in the US, and it's not uncommon for annual raises to, at the very least, include a "cost of living" adjustment.

The attitude towards work probably has more to do with social media influence, than it does apathy. At least in the US, policies have become much more friendly towards younger folks than they have ever been. Federal student loan forgiveness

I'm on the side that high performers (across all industries and generations) tend to be outliers. The consensus is that GenZ's work ethic can be summed as "do the bare minimum not to get fired" and that they "work t

The next gen lily drug is expected to cost $1500 for a 30-day supply. The US government stated $18000 per year was a fair price to pay. There is no money in the cure. We sell you the disease, and charge you 5x for the treatment. Fwiw I am o
