That still works just fine, I use it all the time too. It's just when you middle-click in a text box that it pastes the clipboard. Otherwise, what will middle-click do, nothing?

I have two pairs of their made-in-USA models. One pair I bought 2-3 years ago, and one I bought a year ago. Guess which ones wore out first? Yeah the ones from a year ago.

Stabilize at an incredibly high price. Once they realize they can make more money selling high and producing less. I hate to say it, but the savings does not get passed on to the customer.

You do, but most people don't. So not enough people will complain that it will make any difference. And the people who don't complain will just keep forking out money because they're addicted.

Will it actually do it in the background on iOS though? It's been years since I had an iPhone, but basically you had to keep the phone awake to keep the sync moving for any application that wasn't Apple's.

Not if the browser rendering is done in the cloud. All you're looking at is a screen on a server somewhere, not actually the one on your phone.

I can't afford the ram and storage in the server anymore though. So it kinda is the same thing.

What exactly does it isolate? An SSID? IP addresses? individual MAC addresses? How does this stop a pre-infected device you purchased from shitting traffic out of your network, acting as a residential proxy or try to own your other IoT devi

Is this true? For devices on the same subnet, I'm petty sure they don't even have to takl to the router. Maybe a managed switch can stop it, but I doubt most home routers have anything more than a dumb switch in them.

Maybe you don't need such a huge generator. Run your fridge and a small heater, and only heat a small section of your house. Were talking about emergencies here, not keeping your hot tub running. I can heat a bedroom easily with a 1500

That's cool! Something I want to do some day! The closest I have done is picking up the SSTV signals with one of my HTs. I learned a lot doing it. It was crazy just how directional the rubber ducky antenna was even on a crappy Baofeng.

The cost is rolled into your PC when you buy it. Its not free. Your $10 licenses are not legal. Sorry. Those are sketchy grey market keys. Though Microsoft likely won't go after you for it, so I'm not sure it matters. You should h

I just had some bloodwork done, myself. My provider accidentally billed insurance, which had lapsed due to being laid off. I got my "Explanation of benefits" and it was $1000 billed to them, but I was given a $500 "discount.&

I don't think so. I don't think anybody is going to hand off their server and ask someone else to hook it up. Also, you need access so you can troubleshoot hardware issues.

It doesn't say it's in someone's house. Maybe the guy runs a business doing this. At least they know where it is. They can go knock on the door.

To be fair, there were a couple of times where they mentioned being allowed to exceed warp speed limits for an emergency. Otherwise, they were usually traveling under Warp 6.

That may be a part of it, but I think for a lot of people the problem is how surround sound movies are processed. Voice comes through the center channel. Music tends to come out of multiple speakers, and so do a lot of explosions and sound

My favorite thing about Kodi is an audio setting that boosts the center channel. Since most speech comes through that, it generally just turns up the voices, and the music and sound effects stay at the same level. It's a godsend. Also

I use some cool ham radio software, a couple SDR applications, and a lithophane generator for my 3d printer. It all works great, if you have a cool utility or piece of software, why wouldn't you want to?

Probably because there are over 9000 different TVs with their own proprietary apps on each one. So the easiest thing to do is just go with the lowest common denominator which is just giving you a menu to play a simple video.

Its all of those rolling hills where you are going up and down over and over. People don't pay attention and let their car slow down up hills, then let their cars roll up to 90 going back down the other side. Do it over and over and yo

You call that extraordinary evidence? Looks pretty vague to me. "Ship. Round thing. Structure. Water. Propeller." Give me a break. Reads like the typical psychic scammers.

I like that my current phone can do both, and I'll hold onto it as long as I can. Why can't we just have both options? Why do we need to keep removing features to save 2mm of space inside the phone? Oh right, it's not really
