I think you're moving goal posts here. Do I trust TMZ if it tells me to do all my life savings into dogecoin? No. Do I believe if it tells me Michael Jackson has passed away? Absolutely. There is nothing actionable for me with a celebr

I love this idea. The previous idea had a fatal flaw, you need enough buses that people don't have to wait too long. How many buses is that? I have no idea. However, if you're just going up and down a street, it is now a much easi

I wonder... Could we sort of mix this self driving car technology with an app that does something like Uber pool and put it on buses? I am not thinking going to a different state. I'm just thinking local public transit. If we have enou

I had a less traumatic experience at the beach. I lost my glasses to the waves. Working on a laptop for the few weeks while my new glasses that I ordered online arrived was painful. At least something good came off of it. I'm all for b

Speaking of windows Vista, a tale of two friends kts call them ben and randy. Ben has a Compaq laptop that is Vista capable. It takes upwards of three minutes, I kid you not, of blank screen to get a UAC prompt for elevated access request.

We had USB 3 with the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in September 2013. It is now almost a decade. If rumors are true, Samsung will announce a USB 4 (thunderbolt 3) phone before the end of 2024. I agree with the grandparent. While most people don&#x

Yes, everything looks simple and straightforward from a distance. As you get closer, you are faced with dozens of not hundreds of decisions that you need to make. If you're good, you won't be stuck with analysis paralysis.

I hummed a line from the middle of the song Jaljayo by Twice (I don't speak Korean) and still got a 12% match. Interestingly I also got two other matches at 6% and 5% but I've never heard these songs...

Microsoft is such a strange company. For the people I know who worked there, it was allegedly almost a vacation. Why is there so much difference in work load in different teams?

This takes me back to the first time I read the word sorry that was not an apology, but rather an expression of regret or sorrow. > There was further debate over the exact meaning of the Chinese translation issued by the U.S. Embassy. A

I think there is some miscommunication here. When I read I wanted to, that made me think that they knew about this before OP's problem. If they had made a warning post like warning - don't use render. It is a piece of poop, maybe

No, that is not science. Setting aside your political beliefs, looking at the data, and coming to a conclusion based on evidence is science. There is no need for dissenters or a devil's advocate. The grandparent is correct. We need sci

Welp, back to Firefox containers it is then. For those who don't know, you can have multiple Google sessions in different Firefox containers in a single Firefox profile/window. This is an official Firefox adding as far as I know.

It isn't rocket surgery. If you have a cold, wear a mask. Or at the very least cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze. Do you also need a hundred year weather analysis if someone suggests carrying an umbrella because it is cloudy?

Between this and the "RTO or GTFO" story going around on Blind, my new conspiracy theory is there is some kind of power struggle going on at zoom leadership and the senior leadership team is intent on burning zoom to the ground.

What should this limit be? Personally, I think the limit should be nothing smaller than a thousand characters. Or even allowing something like a hundred characters or more would be better. I remember at some point Hotmail had a maximum len
