People in my county have given up with masks. We are maybe 60% vaccinated but I feel there is a false sense of security because of the low population density. It’s so easy to wear a mask and give yourself protection, but you also have the

I just got an email today telling me my Model 3 is impacted. First time I’ll have to bring it in during the three years of owning it (rotated tires myself, otherwise no maintenance). I know because it’s Tesla it makes news, but I’ve had to

Legit beginner here, I only read a little of some beginner python books but never got far. It was more fun than working through a book, more engaging. I think I may go back to it after seeing some of these updates. There is also a decent

I think it’s really hard for people to shake the old work ways. Once we went fully remote my whole department fully embraced flexibility. And guess what productivity was good and work was getting done. People worked all kinds of work hour

I’m in the same boat as you but I just don’t consume YouTube at all. Sure I’ve looked up repair things or a tutorial if it’s less than 10 minutes. I have to have something specific to watch I don’t just keep watching related videos. Watc

That app seems interesting I would find it useful. Also the first paid app I’ve seen that says the author collects no data from the app.

I mean I’m not a fan of advertisements myself but I don’t find the whole Apple products in Ted Lasso overwhelming compared to most other shows and movies. I mean any time someone is on a phone or laptop obviously it’s gonna be an Apple prod

I mean the cars have keys. I carry my Model 3 key (it’s basically a credit card) with me all the time. Rarely ever had to us it, but I just prefer to have my phone. It’s nice carrying zero fobs or metal keys with me, slim wallet and my p

Not a big fan of the styling of the car but I am interested. No price listed anywhere I can find so we will see how that all pans out. If someone would make an electric car with the space inside of a minivan, I would be very interested. I

It’s interesting the preferences people have. My work phone has Touch ID and I’ve grown so accustomed to Face ID that Touch ID feels annoying. I also remember some time ago my wife refused to have something that didn’t have a physical key

Ok that’s pretty interesting. Some of my employees and coworkers have been complaining about taking things from SharePoint lists and making them in a more “screen friendly” format and removing the manual work. We are pretty locked down in

It’s interesting reading the comments here as I assume everyone here has more coding experience than myself. We have all the Power Apps at my agency and I have yet to find a use case for them. They seem really interesting but until there

I register nearly all computer components. Sometimes parts go bad and that’s the point of having a warranty. Thankfully I’ve only had to replace a motherboard and a PSU. Actually they were EVGA, hence why I normally buy their stuff. I got

The early times middle school and high schools kids need to be at school is terrible. Not to mention numerous studies showing the impact of sleep on academic abilities. Let the kids sleep in. My kids start school by 8:45am. They seem to

I sort of have a hard time dishing out $999 for a Index but I’m also in the same boat regarding FB. I don’t want anything to do with them. Even though they have all my information from back in the day when I used it.

This is exactly what I heard on The Daily. Everyone is buying stuff to get ready for the holidays but had nowhere to store it so they use the port. So normally when there would be zero container ships anchored there are now plenty. It’s

Lots of junk comments, but I guess that happens with Apple announcements. Laptops seem impressive to me, I want to see the real world use metrics. Pushing hard on the performance per watt type metric and no doubt they have a lot of power

The jury is still out on natural immunity to COVID and how well it protects individuals. There’s lots of variability (same with vaccine immunity). The data are showing that if you had COVID and also got the vaccine you have robust protectio

Daycare was already expensive, know plenty of people myself included who are no longer doing it because they work from home. None the less because of COVID protocols meant less space in the daycare. Daycare really needs to be subsidized s

I’m not in the market for a laptop in that price range, but if I was I would seriously consider it. I’ve had a Thinkpad X220 for some time now and done plenty of upgrades but changing out the lcd worries me too much to give it a shot and t

Part of it is certainly getting consumers to understand that any time it’s a free trial they are going to try and get you to just pay (hope you forget). What I’ve noticed with apple has been encouraging, lots of messages letting you know t

ATT has the worst policy on locked phones too. Say you buy a iPhone from Apple that works with ATT. Even if you pay in full it’s still locked. You have to contact ATT to get it unlocked. Verizon just has your phone locked for 30 or 60 d

Past places I’ve worked they did a lot of monitoring, it was a for profit place and cared a big deal about metrics. So they would regularly remind us that you have no expectation of privacy (which is true), but I always laughed when people

Your comments may be true some places but are broadly generalized. The states I’ve lived in have had great public school systems. They pay their teachers well and have great pensions and benefits. Where I grew up the administration did a

I live in a state where they pay is pretty decent starting around $50k a year (they should be making more, but still not a bad start). Also the state pays for pretty much all of your Masters degree. Their health insurance is top notch and

If there was something fishy there would be evidence wouldn’t there? The DOJ said there was no rampant voter fraud. Every election will have some votes that are off, but when it’s not enough to sway the election (by even a close margin) th
