Not all of those have "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com" below the shipping timeframe line. It changes depending on inventory stock. The first monitor in the "plus" list says "Ships from and sold by computersale&qu

It was a bug. I have 3 screens, and it would disappear on the third. An update, sometime around middle of last year fixed it, if my memory is correct. But, I still have occasional problems with my monitors not waking up when I return to my

Really? How about asking google to "play bloomberg news on spotify" next time. Then see if you can remove the resulting chaos from your history so it won't start feeding you slop.

So you buy a big TV, unbox it, and disagree to the TOS. Can it still be used through one of its HDMI ports?

Walmart owns Vizio. Vizio buys components from other manufacturers and has assembly performed overseas. Not sure where the software comes from, but likely one of those suppliers.

Interesting - hadn't heard of that model line from them (but then I spend less time with hardware today than before), and found their 16G model is $669 (Model: PB14255), but non-touch. In looking at the customized version, at least the

I haven't seen quite that many, but my much limited experience aligns with yours. The Elitebook I currently have is my first and I've been quite happy with it so far. Time will tell if it has other issues like battery bloat or dyi

If there was one perfect laptop manufacturer out there, there wouldn't be a need for competition. I care less about ghosting issues since I'm not using mine for gaming or other tasks where image clarity with visual movement is nec

PDFlib - I've used it since 2001. Their pricing is stable, and they've been flexible over the years as computing models have shifted.

You theoretically could blame bad parenting if the parent monopolized the time of the child to near 100% of their life. But, that isn't the case in our world today. Society, and the circle of people around, are most of the influence th

Its the law pertaining to copyright. https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/englisch_urhg/englisch_ur... ... and that's only in Germany. If what you're protecting with robots.txt isn't copyright-able, then

Exactly - its why laws are written. So, if its enough of a problem, then there should be a law stopping/regulating it. Are published TOSs enough to stop the owners of the bots?

That's a slippery slope opinion. One person's norm can oppose another's norm. Who defines them? If my "norm" is to stop at a stop sign, and yours is to roll through it, are you the abusive jerk?

One word answer - security. Any website you visit could have been compromised and serving malicious content. Upon first visit to a website, I block all connections to domains not in the address bar, then go back in and add rules to allow co

Its simple usability polish. Tomato had it, OpenWRT doesn't. But where it shines is in the reliability. I've been using it for over 10 years, and prior to that DD-WRT on a 54L. That's the biggest challenge with many of these
