No, I agree social media is awful. I was talking about your rhetoric being divisive. Notably with use of words like "regime" which is often used to describe authoritarian governments. No matter what you think of our particular gov

I was mostly pointing out the hypocrisy of what you were saying. > I feel sorry for those who have to substitute something so vile for something so wholesome. Here you are trying to proclaim how your church is so wholesome, while you you

Meanwhile, here you are using words like "regime" in your post here.

Their return policy is insanity. While I was okay with the device itself, the lack of search-ability in the notes (GoodNotes on iPad can do it just fine) was a deal breaker for me. The return process is just stupid. I had about a dozen diff

Similarly, retirement options need to stop being tied to employers as well. I've written my representatives about this, but I also want to see the 401k separate from the employer. Reduce fees, allow anyone to have a 401k, and like an I

That's... overly dramatic.

Was going to say, I've only ever used Arris modems and really haven't had any issues with the Surfboard line in ~15 years of using them. They used to be part of Motorola, not sure when that switch happened, but I've used them

Pricing seems high, but it does grant them a custom domain option so it's not a shocker someone would sign up to get that feature.

I don't need a week long battery life. I like to take my watch off my wrist for at least awhile, every day. It's during that time I charge it. I've had Garmin watches, admittedly, not a newer one as I only used it for running

Series 6, got it at launch, so about a year ago.

I don't totally get this concern. I have a Series 6, I don't leave the always on display on as that is a factor here. But I use mine throughout the day, put in a solid 30+ minute workout every day and wear it to bed. Throw it on t

Yup. As a consumer, Apple's IAP and Apple Pay driven experience is pretty darn good. I wish their business didn't revolve around subscriptions as much, but at the very least it does make purchasing really easy as a consumer.

I would. I'm very careful about what I pay for anyway. If you want me to pay for your product it needs to be something that brings me real value. Even then I limit myself, as I only have a certain amount to spend anyway, so you're

His point is that it's not ready for the average person. I would not expect the average person to switch from something that works out of the box to having to fiddle with trying to find an answer just to get where they were before. OP

Further proof that the library system is just plain being broken by publishers. There's a lot of bad shit in this world, but oh boy do I wish some of our country's leaders would solve problems like this. We don't elevate yout

I think there's a bigger issue here. Currently the library buy's x copies of an ebook, which they can then distribute out to members. This is the model you're saying is bad. But the benefit here is that the expense of the boo

Dealing with finding driver support is one. Lack of quality apps that I can find on Mac, like Fantastical, Reeder, MindNode, and more. But the single biggest one for me is I just want my devices to work and not have to fix them in my free t

I'd really do well on these types of interview questions. I've spent a great deal of time troubleshooting the most difficult software issues for the teams I've been on. I'd rather not dox myself here, but troubleshooting

Maybe, but I also think basically saying "well, it just spits out Bing results" is over simplifying. There's probably somewhere in the middle, as I said, I suspect Bing results are a pretty large chunk of it but I also try no

I think that's simplifying it greatly. Here's their help page: https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/results/so... They have their own crawler as well, and there are a bunch of other sources

Roam is basically an outliner Obsidian is able to do outlining with some plugins, but is primarily designed for writing notes. I really far prefer Obsidian. If you want to get a good primer on things, lookup Linking Your Thinking on YouTube

Have you tried using tools like Steermouse? It has been awhile since I've used it but as I recall it allows controlling a lot more of the mouse behavior than the system does in System Preferences.

I don't think chip suppliers are playing games here, are they? I think in general all chip manufacturers are at capacity and it comes down to getting in line. And I'm sure many chip manufacturers are trying to expand their capacit

by selykg 5y ago
Inflation is the rise in costs for goods. If the supply of these chips causes a loss in supply of in demand items, like cars, then it will cause an increase in the price of cars. The thoughts are that this is temporary, until the components

This is one of my annoyances as well. Copy the credit card number... go to paste it. Come back and you have to find the credit card again and then copy the next bit... then go paste and when you come back you're once again presented wi

I would not say Bitwarden has a better UI. Though I guess that's an opinion thing, but oof, is Bitwarden's UI bad. It's almost actively painful to use for me some days. The extension isn't as bad as the desktop app, but
