Here's a better rec: Buy any device with a carta 1300 screen and only buy from shops that are supported by the DeDRM plugin in Calibre.

Someone googles "free VPN" so they can watch region locked videos and now their connection is a part of that network too. They may or may not realize that this is the arrangement.

Works great if you are the product owner. We ended up having to fire and replace about a dozen 3rd party vendors over this.

So far every image I've seen of this thing is too professional to trust. It looks like they solved the kaleido contrast problem, but none of the reviewers are actually saying that in the text. I'd really like an amateur side by si

Chatting and everything you normally do in chats is there. needle hunting info out of all my Teams group chats is probably my favorite thing. It can retrieve info out of sharepoint I guess. Biggest complaint for me personally is that you ru

Who would they lose position to? Free newspapers are either going out of business or becoming automated content farms. They don't have to outrun the bear, they only have to outrun the next slowest publication.

They did not ticket me so there is no day in court. Chatting you up, seeing everything visible through the windows, leaning in to smell your car, running your license for warrants are all "free" interactions with no oversight. The

I commute to a different state for work and when one of them legalized weed I once got pulled over and dog-searched for "driving exactly the speed limit." When they want to go fishing there is absolutely nothing that will stop the

I think those are just inference providers unless they are adding something on top of it.

This will be very interesting if they can conquer the distribution issue. During the Hong Kong protests I recall several such solutions were created, but the dominant thing ended up being airdrop because it is what so many people already ha

My inbox's default retention policy deletes anything that is more than 90 days old unless it has a tag. Receipts, billing statements, messages from real people that I added to my contacts etc all get tagged and retained. Your newslette

I have been happy enough with my GE fridge. However I got fancy and went for the one that puts the freezer on the bottom instead of the top. I will say, when I went to my local appliance store (NOT bestbuy) they had literally zero options o

Before buying any IOT devices, see if you can download the firmware from the manufacturer's website. If you can't, do not buy that product. I like Shelly's doodads. They are easy to work with, you can flash their firmware wit

If the graphic on the machine is anything to go by, you just push on the barrier and it will swing out. If you didnt know, this is the same with all the regular motorized sliding doors, too.

You know, the IRS is basically defunded, even not counting the whole shutdown thing. I wonder how many people need to file handwritten by mail before it becomes a significant problem

I know I'm slippery sloping but I wonder if they won't get rid of bluetooth and aux ports in the future. Letting people play spotify on their phone's data connection is money on the table when they could be selling their own

I think this is it: https://archive.is/l0web Maybe one of the reasons the poster did not want to link the article is because the audit this finding is from was conducted 11 years ago.

I still have a HDHP for intensive visits and if I go to local out of network Urgent Care for the narrow range of things Urgent Care is good for, it's like $50 tops.

I do this too and I love it, and it highlights what to me is the healthcare's system biggest constraint. It is amazing how little healthcare can cost when you do not need to staff seven paper pushers for every doctor.

Perhaps you might worry about hostile IOT doodads snooping on things that arent their business or making insecure public webpages with UPNP. If it is just devices you truly control and you never expose an unhardened device, then a walled ga

I looked this up and it seems like restaurant meals are only available to SNAP users that cannot use a kitchen because they are homeless or too disabled. Programs like meals on wheels have waiting lists now so that might not be an option. T

There is more written material produced every hour than I could read in a lifetime, I am going to miss 99.9999% of everything no matter what I do. It's not like the headline+blurb you usually get is any better in this regard.
