It reduces the link value to me since now the poster is financially motivated to post it. So do I trust that it really is a good product or is the poster just posting an affiliate link so that they can earn money or is it somewhere in-betwe

I've started paying cash more at places that have tipping screens for what I consider to be a service that a tip is not required. For example the local donut shop has a tipping screen for them spending 1-2 minutes of time to get the do

My stuff just keeps on working. So for me I have no complaints. They aren't perfect but I haven't found anything out there that makes me want to switch to something else.

In the US it is $400 for the Pixel 6 Pro (256GB) and $550 for the iPhone 13 Pro (256GB) to trade-in for a Pixel 8 Pro (128GB). I am probably going to trade in an old Pixel 3 (64GB) that I had sitting in a drawer. They will give $200 trade-i

You could buy "nano" keys for each computer and just leave them installed all the time. And the backup would be one on your keychain. This is how I do it. I'm not really that concerned about someone gaining physical access to

I have around 4 Yubikeys on my (physical) key ring. I purchased two of them back in 2014. None of my keys have ever had an issue. For me the track record has been perfect.

@saganus Completely unrelated but I saw you ask a question back in 2019 on how to repair a TRS-80 Model 4P. You might want to look at the YouTube channel Adrian's Digital Basement. He repaired a Model 4P about 10 months ago. Did three
