I dunno what CDN Spotify uses but I wish they'd get a better one. Timeouts which stubbornly stick in the Android client cache are annoyingly regular. Like spinning waiting for my playlist to load and I won't get to listen to that

More to do with the fact a pager will reach places a phone won't. Operating theatres are often in the basement or the middle of the building where mobile signals don't reach but pager signals do. They're super high power and

I've been using Beeper for a while now and have zero interest in iMessage. It aggregates Discord, Signal, SMS, LinkedIn, Slack, Twitter, WhatsApp message into one place. It's fantastic! (Though it's recently developed a weird

I worked at a telco next to the law enforcement liason team's office and overheard a lot of their calls and conversations. They were all ex-cops and extremely inclined to hand over anything requested, ever. They also weren't parti

There's a lot of $70-120,000 cars on the road. Lots of Lexus, BMW, Mercedes, Tesla, Porsche SUVs. Then there's the giant American-style SUVs which are $80k+. Once you factor in depreciation of those over something reasonable like

They don't even sell Plugin Hybrids in Australia. They used to have a single Lexus SKU but they killed it. It's funny cos if you look back at Japanese car manufacturing's history, in the 1960s and 1970s their cars were litera

I've used the MS Natural keyboards for years. I'd love to move to a mechanical model but the sites selling keyboards are really confusing. What do I have to buy to get a functioning keyboard? A shell? Switches? Other stuff? I real

The problem is that the moment you call something a "pumpkin", the English think it's cow food and refuse to eat it. But they'll happily eat butternut, which is a pumpkin really.

One of the quotes being discussed is a concrete budgetary cut. The other is the opinion of a drug warrior on the losing side of the war. Oh and for some reason you included some anecdata collected by the (I would argue) compromised reporter

If you don't need crazy big RAM or crazy big CPU, and unless it's for games you probably don't, then go old. Old Lenovo X1 Carbons are <1.4kg and perform really well. Gen 7 or so can be had for a few hundred bucks. I just
