I've had decent experience with an Asus motherboard, but yea, everything else fits that description. I had an asus monitor that would freeze if my macbook woke from sleep while connected to it - I'd have to unplug the monitor from

Yeah, unfortunately Asus took that away a couple of generations back. It's the main thing that keeps me away from their more recent phones. I can sort-of understand omitting microSD support in a "compact" phone that's ta

I tried it with both of my numbers and there was a lot of information, but only half of it seemed to be accurate. Some of it was from family members who were apparently conflated with me, and some of it didn't ring any bells at all. It

I actually prefer the sensor on the back of the phone. I find it to be at least as convenient as on the power button, and with the power button placement, it frequently unlocks right after I just hit the power button to turn the screen off.

Sony seems to be the last manufacturer offering MicroSD slots in their high-end phones. (The last manufacturer that sells phones in the US, anyways.) They also include a headphone jack! Samsung ditched both of those features in recent years

Sony's Xperia line seems to be the last one to still offer microsd support in a high-end phone. They also have headphone jacks, waterproofing, front facing speakers, and no camera notch. I kind of hate sony, but I might end up buying o

Sorry for your loss. It should be possible to replace the battery with a good one, e.g. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Microsoft+Surface+Battery+Pack+...

I'd say the year in jail is more than a slap on the wrist. That's in addition to the fines.

Not saying you're wrong, but it's not the case where I work. Essentially 100% of our backend is written in Go. We only use Java for Android.

I think part of it is that there are a lot more old Android and iOS apps out there that still use Java/Objective-C. These apps are probably worth maintaining and updating, but not necessarily worth rewriting. (And, you'd still nee

Yeah, I have a Win Max and I love it. It's the only laptop that I own, but I also have a desktop PC and employer-provided MacBook. When I travel, I bring both laptops. I've done a little bit of programming work on the Win Max for

That sounds like an incredible amount of work. Who is "they" and who is paying them to do all of this auditing?

Seriously! I've considered going back to contracting just so that I could fully fund a 401k account.

Oh, yeah. The "good for the little guy" argument is that essentially anyone can buy into a SPAC before the merger goes through, whereas with an IPO, the bank only takes orders from big investors. Little guys have to then buy from

I mentioned this in another comment, but based on [1], it looks like it supports a good range of 2G/3G/4G bands. So if you can find one unlocked, then there's a good change it will work on your carrier of choice. [1] https:&

It looks like fairly weak specs for an Android phone (4x Cortex A53's @ 1.3Ghz & 2GB RAM)[1], but I guess that's not really the point. On the upside: it supports a lot of LTE bands, including all of the primary bands for Veriz

That's amazing! I was just saying how I missed the HTC StarTrek and wished someone would do a modern take on it.

What about a Thunderbolt connection and a PCIe ethernet adapter - could that work?

FWIW, I just had a realtek USB ethernet adapter take down my network twice last week when I was trying out with an Android tablet. It's part of a powered USB hub, and it works fine while the tablet is connected, but after disconnecting

Nintendo's lawyers are very aggressive with anything IP related, and I'm sure they would love an excuse like that to shut down the dolphin project.

It's not impossible to replace the battery - https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Samsung+Galaxy+S10e+Battery+Rep... - it's just a bit of a pain. And, yeah, it probably does compromise the waterproofing.
