Thanks, I will look into that. The biggest problem is finding a solution for laptops, the last three of which I had broken a key within the first few months.

As someone who has an uncanny ability to break at least one key (usually the E key) quite quickly on every keyboard he buys... I look forward to being able to type on a slab of concrete.

After taking a quick look, I still don't know what this is, what Postman is, or who would use either, or for what. No doubt I could spend a bit more time to sort it out, but it would be nice to not have to. Perhaps leaving someone like

If you are correct, then those newspaper businesses will now enjoy an economic upturn, since Google and Meta no longer allow links to them on their platforms. But I think we'll see it hurt the Canadian businesses instead. At the very

I wanted to ask OpenAI for an idea how to solve this social problem, but I can't sign up without a cell phone.

Have been eying a MacBook Air 15-in (M2), and wondering on the possibility of running Linux on it. Anyone had success, or failure, on doing this themselves? And, how hard will it be to port this M1 GPU driver to the M2?

The point is, if they honestly believed in climate change, their actions would reflect a state of emergency. Instead, they act as if nothing is wrong, except when it comes time to impose limits on others, and then they remember it's a
