Doesn't the Thinkpad P7x line of laptops still tick all those boxes? The only one it might not have is dual RJ45 ports, but I'd think a USB RJ45 port would suffice in the cases where a second LAN port was required.

I have a Ring doorbell which works great, but I put in a fake street address when registering it for this reason. So far as I've seen, it loses none of its utility from that. The only user-visible feature based on the address is the &q

FWIW, that sounds relatively similar to the licenses that Redis Labs, Mongo, and Elastic recently applied to their software. I have no problem with that, but judging from the discussions here on those licenses, lots of other people did.

This strikes me as a bit of a straw man -- "AWS has operational skill. Open source companies with managed service offerings of their software probably do not." The operational skills that AWS has are primarily at the infrastructur

I used to have a Sony Xperia that had the fingerprint sensor integrated into the power button on the side of the phone. IMO, that was perfect because it could be unlocked either when held in one hand or when sitting on a flat surface. I thi

Yep, plus works in the dark, works when you're not able to look at the phone, generally works faster than facial unlock.

Fingerprint sensors are so convenient that they have become must-have features on my phones. Removing it from the Pixel 4 is an unfortunate step backward in terms of everyday usability.

I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, it's definitely a distortion of the market that college athletics bring in significant revenue and none of it beyond scholarships accrues to the athletes themselves. On the other hand,

Frankly, I think that is a situation where Microsoft just voiced what was common practice in many places in the industry. I've worked on a variety of both commercial and widely-used open source software projects and in all cases, GPL-l

The quality of Yelp must be location-specific. Where I live, Yelp reviews are borderline worthless with chain restaurants with mediocre food and service scoring at or above legitimately worthwhile restaurants. I don't know whether to a

I did the same thing recently when a flight home from a weekend trip was diverted due to weather to an airport 150 miles away. All the rental cars were taken, of course. The next flight out was 8-10 hours away, I was dead tired and had impo

Wow, small world -- I'm also a fan of "The Suit" and have an autographed copy on my bookshelf. It's a more of a philosophical, opinionated take on men's clothing than practical advice on where to buy jeans, but the

Funny that you should mention that -- I had my first suit made nearly 20 years ago when I was in quite good shape. Being able to still wear that suit has been a significant motivation for me over the years to maintain that shape.

I don't know anything about that shop specifically, but from their website, it looks a lot like many of the tourist-focused operations with pictures of all the celebrities for which they've made suits (for free, of course -- you&#

The weave is very important, but is one of the easier things to determine. For example, a voile (though uncommon in men's shirts) is much lighter than a moleskin though you would never find a summer shirt made of the latter. As someone

Looking at the mill for a fabric can be helpful, especially for wools. Mills such as Holland & Sherry and Scabal have built a reputation for quality fabrics though they're generally not household names so they do not yet have the m

What kind of clothes are you looking for? In general, it's hard to find stores where you can walk in and be assured that anything they carry is high quality. Even the high-end department stores such as Saks Fifth Ave. and Neiman Marcus

In a previous life when I wore suits to work on a frequent basis, I got interested in this topic and spent way too much time learning about it. I now have a closet full of quality clothes that I wear much less frequently, but, for whatever

To be fair, they're forbidding only one specific form of competition- managed hosting. Forking, embedding, etc., are all still permitted.

This is more validation of the threat that cloud providers (mainly AWS) are to businesses built around open source products. Yes, AWS and others are legally permitted by existing open source licenses to create SaaS versions of these open so

This Old House is great for people interested in DIY or just knowing more about how houses should be built and renovated. Having done a fair amount of that myself, the HGTV shows can be very misleading. There's no sense of the scale of
