If you have any luck, I’d love to know about it. Our deactivated Jamboard currently serves as nothing more than a mediocre large monitor for a Mac mini.

This has been a long time coming. My company owns a Jamboard (the hardware). They were selling it hard when we bought it. We got to use it for a year before the service contract expired. All the major features stopped working, there was no

Before you blame your cat, consider the possibility of an exploded electrolytic capacitor. Among many other foul comparisons, I’ve heard people say they can smell like cat pee after they die.

You are of course right that it's difficult, laudable and unusual to document failures. I wouldn't want to discourage anyone from reading or writing something like this. At least in my current mental state I simply couldn't p

If that's the case, I applaud the writer's efforts and can definitely see how working in a second language could hinder the already difficult work of trying to model your audience. As a shameful monoglot myself, I'm in no pos

Oh thank goodness it's not just me. These two introductory sentences gave me an instant headache: > In the stone age of gamedev (like 7-8y ago) developers were more interested in publishers. Finding new partners was like a supermark

I’m so curious, what could a Ford Maverick error possibly signify?

If you find a reference (or anyone does), please share. This is too good a story not to be told widely. Edit: here, at least, is a mention of the thing with her daughter in a Google Blog article: https://blog.google/products

Good news: this article announces that the kernel module is no more, since last year apparently!

I’m so glad things have gotten better for you. Can you help me understand the mechanism by which T4 phages could help with gluten intolerance?

I did some quick looking and it seems like SharePoint creates a hidden folder called “forms” to store, unsurprisingly, forms associated with a resource. Aren’t polluted namespaces grand?

haha, my sentiment exactly on how cosmically unfortunate those occasions can seem. If your experience is common, though, you are making an excellent counterpoint to mine. If the [deleted] posts stop people from becoming active users, that h

My thinking was that Reddit has always been a "news" site, and the majority of what active, ad-consuming users are looking at is likely to be content added in the last few days. It feels like this is only becoming more true as tim

Ah, good point. If this is the case, yeah, shred away. Still it's too bad that this greed will make it harder for humans to see useful old discussions.

I might be missing the point but I don't plan to do this when I leave Reddit later this month. It seems to me like it doesn't hurt Reddit (the company) very much, but it can hurt fellow human beings quite a bit. I think investors

I used the excellent Dark Sky API in my home automation tool to integrate hints on whether it would start raining soon. That let it warn us to close open windows, etc. The API is going away on March 31st, so I'm headed for a rewrite an

I hate to be so negative, but I think this is an awful addition to the web. It speaks authoritatively ("This song is about...") but appears to draw on the text of the song alone with none of the context available elsewhere. I sear

It sounds like you just have different priorities or a different aesthetic sense than folks like me who go to great lengths to hide cables. To me it just feels good to wake up in a visually simple environment with things out of sight. It fe

Right now I'm drawing comics using CLIP Studio Paint, which really is a desktop app that runs seamlessly on the iPad (literally it appears to be the same code as what I have on my Mac!) Each page is ~5000x7000px with dozens of layers i

Unlike "normal" characters, emoji are often displayed in full color, independent of whatever color the surrounding text is being rendered in.

Sorry, I'm dense...what is this comment referring to?

I would guess that the heat chemically alters or breaks down (denatures might be the right term?) some of those macronutrients into molecules that can no longer provide caloric energy.

Nice, that's good enough for me. Now if only I could find a box with a button on it to switch the monitor between two or three computers, at full resolution, retaining Power Delivery and attached USB devices. I'd buy one right now

100% what I was thinking. Sounds silly, but it's going to massively simplify my setup and change the whole way I work.

Being that this is a vector tool, maybe they should have emulated MacDraw instead. My favorite thing to do with the Macintosh in my third grade classroom was to draw intricate mazes in MacPaint and then use the paint bucket tool on them. Wi

Is there an alternative? If I want to build a flexible, high-quality, open whole-house audio system that my whole family can use without cursing my name, do I have any options? It feels like there has to be a prosumer/low-end-professio

I mean the person in the video has MS and is presumably never going to get back the function she has lost in her left side. She was unable to go downstairs unassisted before this device. She's not training for strength, she just needs
