This is dead on - they are so commonplace today they are taken for granted but they were game changing when they first appeared.

We did that, and to emphasize again we pre-paid, they could have left the room empty for the entire night and been compensated. Instead they gave it away, and this has happened several times now. I suspect what is going on is they give away

I'm about three months into my chargeback, I've had to supply additional documentation twice, and every time I do the hotel gets thirty days to review and respond.

Mozilla had the same issue - it was one engineer who stubbornly kept webp support out of the browser for years. Then he quit or got laid off and Mozilla finally got support. Mozilla also refused to support Yubikey for years, which we are st

My wife had the same issue with Lyft. She was taking a ride home last year when they got hit from behind by a car that tried to drive around them and ended up hitting them. She gave a statement to Lyft support to make clear that the Lyft dr

It is not booking that does the overbooking, it is the hotels. It doesn't matter that I made the reservation in advance, pre-paid, and spoke to someone at the hotel the day prior to arrival. They probably give away my room to avoid con

I think people really must not appreciate booking.com. My wife strayed from the formula, booked directly with major chain, used loyalty points to book a stay at a European hotel they operate. Got charged full price by the hotel, got charged

My son has never seen a typewriter in person or a printer that wasn’t inkjet or laser, I think he is missing out. Didn’t IBM make printers that also used the selectric balls? That would be a great novelty item to have. No idea if you can st

I don't believe it, $10 says somebody someplace changed how inflation is calculated in order to make the number look better.

Sadly self hosted e-mail is a 24/7 job where you will be fighting against big players for the luxury of sending e-mail from your own system. Despite the dozen or so different standards to attest you are a legitimate sender it has basic

There are YouTube channels dedicated to repairing non-functional LED bulbs. In every case the issue is usually that one of n leds has failed, and if you solder a bypass then the remaining leds work fine. After that the only real problem is

I think it is too late, even though the functioning of the models does not seem to be well understood, how to create them does seem to be, and the only barrier to entry is cost. In one way this is good - I really loathe the restrictions on

Yes they are really annoying and the fact that someone somewhere can tell it what topics not to discuss, just be cause they disagree or it’s “controversial” really concerns me. If it can not be self hosted I want the “unrestrained” version

This is good to see. I spent a couple weekends playing with ChatGPT and I found it is very sensitive to wording. One word gets you a lecture that it is just AI language model and can't do this or that, use an synonym and it happily spe

I would spend $35/m on a hobby - but not on Docker. I wouldn't even spend $5 to host on my own registry. I think a dockerfile and a brew formula is all you'd get out of me.

I just ignore the ads on youtube. I don't own any animals so the pet food ads are a miss. I don't take any medicines so I'm not buying those either. I work remotely so I'm not going to buy a new car. I already have a VPN

The OP goes through a lot of trouble to obscure they are asking for $35 a month, which honestly I think most people can afford, even if its open source software they develop only out of kindness. So I'm not really buying that argument.

Did we learn nothing from Tony Soprano? First thing you do when buying a new car is disable gps, on-star, and anything else that can be used to track or control you. Thats why Big P was such a valuable member of his crew, and probably the o
