I received a couple of fakes when ordering Lightning cables for my iPhone (which claimed made by "Appel in Califona" on the box which was a dead give away). Left a review to let people know it was fake and also got the review reje

I'm glad that they don't. Otherwise I would have my 75 year old father-in-law on the phone panicking every five minutes. He insists on having his own computer and after five years of dealing with his constant issues I convinced hi

I've been playing with Pi's for quite some time now (I used to even run a Pi Jam in my city!) and prior to the pandemic, I never had trouble getting my hands on a Pi here in mainland Europe. When the ZeroW2 was released I was able

To be fair to them... thats a brave step for a startup to take. So many would try to stay quiet and fix the issues behind the scenes (hell, giant companies try this attempt all the time!). They made the right move here. NB, I don't use

You sound a lot like me, only I've already been in my current company for a smidge over ten years. I don't see the experience in another company being any better than I have here (sure I can get more money but at the loss of work&

I don’t really think you can compare instant messaging and social media. They serve different purposes and have different impacts. It still gets in the way of physical conversations - for example picking up the phone) but doesn’t come with

The way things are going, not many people will be interviewing next year either. There may be a few openings for attrition but they will slow too as there are less places for people to leave to. In this kind of environment employees are goi

I stopped using clients on my computer as my NAS has a built in client that allows me to quickly download content straight to that device without using my computer as a middleman. Transmission was my go to for a very long time though!

Yup, there's also a slew of companies rescinding offers to companies in these regions lately as well. I think there has been some tightening of sanctions recently or something.

It's in their "reels" as well... every fifth video is a rip off of an existing popular reel either promoting free Robux or 18+ content. The whole platform is just riddled with spam at the moment.

I live in Amsterdam, 15km/h is a "slow" bike. Most fit adults cruise at around 20km/h and e-bikes are often blasting along at 25km/h+ The problem with bikes is that most don't have a speedo so they have no clue

I have a 2010 Macbook Pro sitting on my network as an airprint server for my aging Dell Laser printer (purely because the drivers no longer work on modern OS's). It's hacky but cheaper than buying a new printer and the damn thing
